Rob Reiner and his wife found dead

Legendary Hollywood director and actor Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Reiner, have been found stabbed to death in their home. The Los Angeles Police Department said it responded to Reiner’s home, where the Reiners were found. Reiner’s career included directing iconic films such as “When Harry Met Sally,” “The Princess Bride” and “A Few Good Men.” His breakout role was as Archie Bunker’s son-in-law on the TV series “All in the Family.” The couple’s son, 32-year old screenwritier Nick Reiner, was taken into custody and was being held on $4 million bail.

Trump administration Venezuela operation endangers JetBlue flight

The flightcrew of a JetBlue passenger jet en route from Curacao to New York City avoided a midair collision with an Air Force tanker plane off the coast of Venezuela on Friday it has been learned. The JetBlue pilots stopped their climb when they spotted the Air Force plane. “We almost had a midair collision up here,” the JetBlue pilot said, according to a recording of his conversation with air traffic control. “They passed directly in our flight path … They don’t have their transponder turned on, it’s outrageous.” The transponder is a piece of equipment required to be turned on that makes aircraft show up on equipment used by other airplanes and air traffic control. The JetBlue pilot said the Air Force plane subsequently entered Venezuelan airspace. President Trump has said the U.S. would be conducting covert operations in Venezuela.

Brown University shooting suspect at large

The person of interest detained in connection with Saturday’s shooting at Brown University has been released from custody after law enforcement officials said evidence “now points in a different direction.” The shooting left two students dead and nine others injured at the Ivy League school in Providence, Rhode Island. In a statement Sunday night, Brown University said there is no immediate threat to the community, even as the suspect remained at large Monday morning. “We know that this update may prompt numerous questions,” the school said, emphasizing that the investigation remains active.

Father and son blamed for Australia beach shooting

A father and son are being blamed for carrying out a massacre at Sydney, Australia’s Bondi Beach on Sunday. The death toll from the attack has risen to 15, while 27 people remain hospitalized. Australia is now seeking tougher gun laws after police said the father-son duo deliberately targeted the Jewish community as families gathered at a Hanukkah event. The youngest casualty was 10 years old, and one of the victims was a Holocaust survivor who died while shielding his wife from gunfire. The 24-year-old shooting suspect is hospitalized, while his 50-year-old father was killed at the scene by police.

Progress reported in Ukraine peace talks

President Donald Trump’s special envoy said Sunday that progress was made during lengthy US-Ukraine talks in Berlin and that discussions will continue today. The talks come as Trump is intensifying his push for a peace deal in Russia’s nearly four-year-old war. Meanwhile, a barrage of Russian drone and missile attacks over the weekend targeting Ukraine’s energy infrastructure left more than a million households without power, the interior ministry said. Russia has focused on crippling Ukraine’s energy sector during winter to leave civilians without heat.

Deadline today for pulling troops out of LA

A preliminary junction was due to go into effect today that would block Donald Trump from keeping U.S. military forces on duty in Los Angeles. California had filed a lawsuit asking that control of the National Guard be returned to the state. Trump had taken control and ordered some California National Guard units into Los Angeles, saying that they were needed to protect federal property and prevent demonstrations against the administration’s immigration policies. A federal judge ruled in favor of the state, but the administration filed an appeal and the judge put as temporary hold on his order that control of the guard units must be returned to the state.
