CHICAGO (AP) — A judge has ordered a 19-year-old woman held without
bond on attempted murder and other charges in the shooting of a Chicago
police officer serving a warrant.
Police say Emily Petronella fired a shot through a door Saturday
night, striking the 34-year-old officer in the shoulder. The officer is
expected to recover.
During Petronella's bond hearing Sunday, her attorney, Stefan Fenner,
argued she didn't know police were outside. He said she was home alone
"with someone battering a door."
Petronella also is charged with aggravated assault of a peace
officer, armed violence while discharging a weapon, aggravated discharge
of a weapon at a peace officer and dealing more than 5,000 grams (176
ounces) of cannabis. She also faces a misdemeanor bail bond violation.
Police say officers recovered drugs, a gun and large bundles of money at the scene.
Two people have been detained in connection with the death of a young girl whose body was found in a duffel bag near a Los Angeles-area trail.
Police confirmed the girl's identity
as 9-year-old Trinity Love Jones of Los Angeles County on Sunday night
and said two persons of interest had been detained for questioning.
"Investigators have detained two persons of interest in this case and
they are actively continuing their investigation," the Los Angeles
County Sheriff's Department said in a statement Sunday. "Although the
Coroner's Office determined the death to be a homicide, the cause of
death is being withheld."
Trinity's
barefoot body was found last Tuesday along a trail in Hacienda Heights,
California. Police had described her as African-American and thin,
standing 4 feet 5 inches tall and weighing about 55 pounds.
Antonio Jones, who said he's Trinity's father, described her as "fun, loving, big heart, bubbly."
"Little girl could've been whatever she wanted to be in life," Jones told ABC Los Angeles station KABC on Sunday.
Officials did not release the identity of the detainees but did say more information would be released later this week.
"Due
to the overwhelming response from the news media and tips received from
the public, investigators have identified the deceased child discovered
on March 5, 2019," the sheriff department said in the statement. "As
additional facts are established and verified, investigators anticipate
that additional information will be available for release during a press
conference later in the week." ABC News' Emily Shapiro contributed to this report.
Man returns Girl Scout cookies, steals over $600 from stand, police say
Ashley May,USA TODAY19 hours ago
On a cold Seattle night, Girl Scouts selling cookies outside a grocery store were robbed of over $600, police say.
Jennifer Johanson, an adult who was with the girls Sunday outside a Northgate QFC store, told Seattle’s KING-TV that a man came up to the girls multiple times — buying cookies, returning them and ultimately, robbing them.
“I saw him out of the corner of my eye walk towards us, and I was
like, I guess he's going to get more cookies, and he started running,
and he pushed past one of the girls and grabbed the money,” Johanson
told KING.
Seattle Police Department say the incident occurred just before 8
p.m. The man, who was caught on surveillance video, took a money bin
holding more than $600 and then ran away, police say.
Now THIS is a MAN! Hey Mom.... you should be sooooo proud of this young man! You did a great job raising him.

McDonald's worker praised for paying for customer's meal after she forgot her wallet

A
woman in Reading, Ohio, who realized she forgot her wallet after
ordering food at McDonald’s was so grateful to the employee who paid for
her meal that she published a tribute to him on Facebook — and now it’s
gone viral.
Friday
was a long day at work in the horse stables for Aundrea Duncan, as she
described in a post about her fateful trip to the fast food chain.

“I ordered my food but realized as I got to the window to pay, I had left my wallet at work,” Duncan wrote.
So
she told the “handsome young man” at the counter to please cancel her
order. But that young man, Jeremiah McDonald-Hemphill, was having none
of it.
“His response was ‘It’s OK, ma’m, I got you,'” Duncan wrote. “He then took his wallet out and paid for my meal.”
Duncan was elated.
“What an amazing young man!” she said. “We hear so much about what’s wrong with the world. I had to share a little of what is right.”
The photo that accompanies Duncan’s post shows McDonald-Hemphill flashing a broad grin.
“I
asked him if I could hug him and told him to keep being who he is
because he is an amazing person,” she wrote. “He didn’t know how tired I
was or that I hadn’t eaten or even if he would be repaid, but he didn’t
even bat an eye and just acted.”
Duncan said she took a few days to post the public thank you out of respect for Hemphill. “I wanted his permission and I wanted to repay him for his kindness,” she wrote.
Hundreds of commenters have thanked the boy, and thousands have shared Duncan’s post.
“Young people like this gentleman give us hope for the future,” read one comment.
“What an awesome young man, his mom would be proud,” added another.
Sure enough, his mom replied.
“Thank each and everyone of you for the kind words in regards to my son,” wrote Donna McDonald. “To God be the glory.” Even the boy’s aunt weighed in on the Facebook love fest. “Very proud of my nephew!!! Love you,” Marina Sanford Dozier wrote.
Duncan told Yahoo Lifestyle she went back to McDonald’s on Saturday to pay McDonald-Hemphill back — and to give him a big hug.
“I
told him that he is one in a million and to keep being him,” she said.
“And that if he hadn’t done that I probably would have just gone home
and went to bed without eating. Before I left he gave me another hug!”
She said he even reached out to her when the viral Facebook post made
its way to him.
Duncan
said she made the post public not only so the message of his kindness
would spread far and wide, but so McDonald’s might give him some sort of
recognition. “His mom also reached out thanking me,” Duncan said,
“which was nice because as a mom of two young men I wanted her to know
what he did for me and that she is doing something right. As moms we all
need to hear that.”
