Winnipeg dental clinic sues man who described 'terrible experience' in series of online reviews
A Winnipeg dental clinic targeted by several negative online reviews is now suing the man behind the posts for defamation. The dental clinic says the man posted "false, inaccurate, misleading, and defamatory" information about the clinic in a series of online reviews earlier this summer, according to the statement of claim filed at the Manitoba Court of King's Bench on July 29. The man posted his reviews to several websites — Facebook, Google, Yelp and the Better Business Bureau — in early July detailing his "terrible experience" at the downtown dental clinic, where he said he went for a tooth extraction at the end of June, according to the lawsuit. In his review, the man claimed a dentist at the clinic was not equipped to provide oral sedation. He also claimed to have accidentally ripped out new stitches from his mouth as he tried to replace gauze after the appointment, the suit says. "Go find a homeless individual in a back alley, give them $50 and tell them which teeth you need out. It will hurt less in the long run!" the man's initial review said, which is quoted in the lawsuit. A spokesperson for the clinic declined to comment on the lawsuit as the matter is before the courts. However, in an email to CBC News, the spokesperson said they welcome criticism because it helps the clinic improve its services. "That said, this does not give people the right to publicly state inaccurate, false, or defamatory statements. Doing so can be damaging to a business' reputation, is cowardly, and is against the law," the spokesperson said. Damages The clinic is seeking general, special and punitive damages against the man, as well as injunctions ordering the man to delete any defamatory material online involving the clinic and not to post more in the future, according to the suit. The clinic offered the man an apology and a chance to go back to the clinic to speak with the dentist who extracted his tooth, but he refused both, demanding a refund from the clinic through its management as well as the Manitoba Dental Association, the suit says. The man has since deleted his review of the clinic on Google, but the other three reviews remain online, the suit says. The man's posts were meant to recover dental fees he paid to the clinic, to question the clinic's integrity and reputation, and to hurt its profits, the suit claims. The clinic claims the man's posts have and continue to cause damages to its reputation and business. None of the allegations have been tested in court. A statement of defence has not yet been filed.

Wife finds missing husband's blue kayak on river, then body is found, WA cops say
A 38-year-old man was found dead in a river after his wife spotted his empty blue kayak, deputies in Washington said. Adam Anson was reported missing Saturday, Aug. 2, in Asotin, the Asotin County Sheriff's Office said in an Aug. 4 news release. His wife found his kayak anchored about 50 feet from the shoreline, across from Asotin Elementary School, deputies said. But her husband was nowhere to be seen. She called 911 and showed authorities his empty kayak, deputies said. Deputies said they tracked Anson's phone and used side-scan sonar but couldn't find him. The Nez Perce County Sheriff's Office brought a marine unit and dive team from Idaho to the river and found his body within 20 minutes, deputies said. Anson's body was found about 80 yards from where his kayak was left, deputies said. Authorities said they believe he died from accidental drowning as there was no sign of foul play A medical examiner will confirm his official cause of death. Grieving friends and family shared their thoughts and memories of Anson on Facebook. 'I will cherish every moment we had together! I will never forget the endless love you have shown me in every day of our 15yrs as partners, lovers, best friends, we have so many memories I will hold with my soul forever!' his wife, Kelsey Anson, said in a Facebook post.

Army sergeant shot 5 soldiers before he was tackled and arrested at Fort Stewart, officials say
FORT STEWART, Ga. — A sergeant shot five soldiers Wednesday at one the country's largest Army bases before he was quickly tackled by other Fort Stewart troops, forcing a brief lockdown, officials said. Few details were immediately available about what led to the gunfire, but officials said the shooter was Sgt. Quornelius Radford, 28, who used a personal handgun, not a military firearm. Radford opened fire where he worked but officials wouldn't speculate about a motive, authorities said. The injured soldiers are stable and expected to recover, said Brig Gen. John Lubas. The soldiers who tackled Radford helped ensure his arrest, Lubas said. 'These soldiers, without a doubt, prevented further casualties or wounded,' he said. This latest act of violence on a U.S. military installation — sites that are supposed to be among the most secure in the country — again raised concerns about safety and security within the armed forces' own walls. The Army said it's investigating the shooting. There were still many unanswered questions, including the condition of the soldiers, the scope of their injuries, the name of the shooter as well as any possible motive. The injured were treated and then moved to Winn Army Community Hospital, base officials said in a Facebook post, adding there's no threat to the community. Some of the wounded were also taken to Memorial Health University Medical Center in Savannah, said spokesperson Bryna Gordon. The hospital is the top-level trauma center for coastal Georgia. Gordon said she didn't know how many people were being taken to the hospital or what their conditions are. Law enforcement was sent to the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team complex shortly before 11 a.m. Wednesday. The shooter was arrested at 11:35 a.m., officials said. The lockdown lasted about an hour. After it was lifted, cars began to move through the normal security checkpoint at the fort's main gate. The Army's 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team was created in 2016 when the service added more than 200 vehicles to an infantry unit of roughly 4,200 soldiers. Also known as the 'Spartan Brigade,' the Army has called the unit its 'most modern land fighting force.' Located about 40 miles (64 kilometers) southwest of Savannah, Fort Stewart is the largest Army post east of the Mississippi River. It's home to thousands of soldiers assigned to the Army's 3rd Infantry Division and family members. White House and Defense Department officials said President Donald Trump and Secretary Pete Hegseth had been briefed on the shooting. The FBI was at the fort to help investigate, said Deputy Director Dan Bongino. Among the deadliest acts of violence on U.S. military bases was a 2009 attack. A U.S. Army psychiatrist killed 13 people in a shooting that left more than 30 wounded at Fort Hood, a military installation in Texas. In 2013, a defense contract worker and former Navy reservist killed 12 people at Washington Navy Yard. He was then killed in a gun battle with police. In 2014, a soldier opened fire on his fellow service members at Fort Hood, killing three people and wounding more than a dozen others before the gunman killed himself. In 2019, an aviation student opened fire in a classroom at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida, killing three people and injuring another dozen people including two sheriff's deputies. Just days earlier, a U.S. Navy sailor shot two people to death before killing himself at Pearl Harbor, the Naval station in Hawaii.
