The interior ministry in the Hamas-run enclave announced the deaths and said a third suspect was under arrest, but did not say what motivated Abu Koussa.

| Ex-Minnesota officer charged with murdering Australian a flight risk: prosecutors Posted: 22 Mar 2018 04:54 AM PDT  Prosecutors argued on Wednesday that the former Minnesota police officer charged with murdering an unarmed Australian woman in July represents a flight risk and should face high bail. Ex-Minneapolis police Officer Mohamed Noor, 32, who on Tuesday was charged in the fatal shooting of 40-year-old Justine Damond, did not enter a plea on the third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter charges. Judge Kathryn Quaintance set his bail at $500,000 without conditions, or $400,000 if he agreed to no contact with the other officer present at the shooting, surrendered his passport and agreed to avoid possession of any firearms.

| Melania Trump’s cyberbullying campaign continues to confuse Posted: 22 Mar 2018 12:09 AM PDT  "If she can't influence Trump, how will she influence anyone else?" "Why would she choose something that would invite her to be a target?" First lady Melania Trump has spoken out about criticism of her cyberbullying campaign, but the head-scratching persists. The first lady got flak as soon as she announced the cause in 2016. "She chose this cyberbullying campaign even after seeing her husband's tweets?" writes one Newsroom reader. "Who is advising her?" asks another. Melania has responded to the backlash saying, "I have been criticized for my commitment to tackling this issue and I know that will continue, but it will not stop me from doing what I know is right. I am here with one goal: helping children and our next generation." What do you think? Join the conversation in Newsroom.

| Police chief: Uber self-driving car may not be at fault in fatal Arizona crash Posted: 21 Mar 2018 06:38 PM PDT  The Uber test car involved in a fatal crash in Tempe, Arizona, may not be at fault, the city's police chief said Tuesday. Tempe police chief Sylvia Moir chief instead suggested that the impact between a pedestrian and a Volvo XC90 equipped with self-driving technology couldn't have been avoided, even by the human backup driver inside the vehicle. "I suspect preliminarily it appears that the Uber would likely not be at fault in this accident," Moir told the San Francisco Chronicle, adding, "I won't rule out the potential to file charges against the [backup driver] in the Uber vehicle." MORE: Feds descend on Tempe to investigate fatal self-driving car crash While pushing a bicycle across a street, 49-year-old Elaine Herzberg was killed when the Uber Volvo XC test vehicle struck her. Police in Tempe have viewed footage from two of the vehicle's cameras, one facing forward toward the street and the other inside the car facing the driver. Based on the footage, Moir suggested that the driver had little time to react. "The driver said it was like a flash, the person walked out in front of them," she said. "His first alert to the collision was the sound of the collision." Moir added, "It's very clear it would have been difficult to avoid this collision in any kind of mode [autonomous or human-driven] based on how she came from the shadows right into the roadway." Moir's comments may contradict Arizona's recently updated rules governing the testing of autonomous vehicles on public roads. The executive order, issued by Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey in March, stipulates that a company is liable if one of its self-driving vehicles negligently kills a person. The corporation that operates the vehicles would be responsible, the governor's office says, and the company could be held criminally liable just like a person. Tempe police are collaborating with the NHTSA and the NTSB in the investigation. The Maricopa County attorney will be responsible for filing any charges at the conclusion of the police department investigation. -- by Ruben Porras.
