2 arrested in California shooting that killed 6
13 Sept 23:44Key points summarised by AI
Two gang members, Noah David Beard (25) and Angel “Nanu” Uriarte (35), were arrested following a massive investigation into the January massacre of six people, including a baby, in Goshen, California.
Uriarte was wounded in a gunbattle with federal agents during his arrest, while Beard was taken into custody without incident.
Both suspects face six counts of murder and other crimes, with prosecutors seeking the death penalty or life in prison without parole.
Authorities stated a long history of gang violence exists between the suspects and the victims' family, though the exact motive for this specific shooting remains unclear.
Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests
Today 12:56Key points summarised by AI
President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
