13-year-old arrested in series of crimes including home invasion and assault
The initial call was made about 4:15 p.m. Sunday, sending deputies to the 3800 block of Section Road in Bedford Township, according to a report from the Monroe County Sheriff's Office. A youth had run away from the home, and was last seen heading northbound into a wooded area.
Deputies started a search.
Then about 5:12 p.m., while that search was still in progress, a 911 call reported a teenage male had broken into a workshop outbuilding at a nearby home in the 7100 block of Twin Canyon Drive and threatened that resident with a handgun.
When officers arrived to Twin Canyon, they found the suspect being restrained by the homeowner.
They learned the suspect had broken into the workshop, found the homeowner inside, held a gun to him and made threats to shoot him.
"The victim attempted to take the handgun from the offender and was able to get it away after a brief struggle, only for the offender to then produce a hammer and swing it at the victim," the report said. "The offender was then held down and restrained by the victim, until a family member was able to call 911 and deputies arrived on scene."
Further investigation indicated that the handgun involved in the Twin Canyon assault was stolen during a break-in to a nearby home in the 7000 block of Brookside Drive.
The 13-year-old was lodged in the Monroe County Youth Center on charges of home invasion, breaking and entering, and felonious assault. Court proceedings are pending.
The case remains under investigation by Deputy Zachary Blevins and detectives from the Monroe County Sheriff's Office. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Detective Bureau at 734-240-7530.

Amanda Knox and Monica Lewinsky just might be the team-up people didn't know they needed
At a time when people are revisiting past treatment of women in pop culture, two outspoken personalities have joined forces for a new project. Amanda Knox and Monica Lewinsky are both serving as executive producers on 'The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox,' an eight-part dramatic limited series debuting Wednesday on Hulu with Grace Van Patten starring in the title role. Lewinsky and Knox are bonded in having been publicly shamed, scorned and mocked for things that happened when they were young women. Knox told The Hollywood Reporter in an article published this week that she and Lewinsky became friends in 2017 after they shared a stage in a lecture hall. She said Lewinsky invited her up to her hotel room afterwards for some tea and talk. 'She had a lot of advice about reclaiming your voice and your narrative,' Knox told the publication. 'That ended up being a turning point for me.' In 2007, Knox was a 20-year-old exchange student living in Italy when she and her then 23-year-old Italian boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, were accused of murdering her 21-year-old roommate Meredith Kercher in their shared apartment in Perugia. Knox was dubbed 'Foxy Knoxy' (her MySpace user name) and there was an early theory that Kercher's death was part of an 'erotic game' involving her, Knox and Sollecito. Knox and Sollecito were convicted and spent nearly four years in prison before their convictions were overturned and they were vindicated – though there is still debate and curiosity about the crime. There was a media frenzy surrounding the case, and if anyone knows what Knox has lived through, it would be Lewinsky. Lewinsky was also in her early twenties in the 1990s when she engaged in a sexual relationship with then-President Bill Clinton while serving as his intern. Since then she has become a writer, producer, podcaster and an activist. On Monday she talked to CNN's Erin Burnett about what drew her and Knox together. 'I could see that there was a pain in her and it's a very unique pain that I recognized,' Lewinsky said. 'So I think there was an instant connection, an instant understanding of two young women who had become public people who hadn't wanted to, and had lost a lot of their identity.' Years after Knox was first launched into the public eye, Lewinsky read a New York Times interview in which Knox spoke of wanting to turn her memoir into a movie. CNN's Erin Burnett talks with Monica Lewinsky about teaming up with Amanda Knox for a Hulu series based on Knox's life. 'I had a first look deal at the time, and I thought, you know, a story that we think we know that we don't is kind of right up my alley,' Lewinsky recalled. Hulu is marketing the limited series as telling the story of 'the eponymous American college student, who arrives in Italy for her study abroad only to be wrongfully imprisoned for murder weeks later,' adding that it 'traces Amanda's relentless fight to prove her innocence and reclaim her freedom and examines why authorities and the world stood so firmly in judgment.' Knox told THR, 'Living through this kind of experience leaves this lifelong mark on you that nobody can really understand.' 'There's a great desire to connect with people, but after being burned and taken advantage of for so long, you live with this constant terror that people will view everything you do or say in the worst possible light,' the now married mother of two young children said. 'When I met Monica, I was just glimpsing what it could mean to stand up for myself – and hope strangers would actually see me as a human being. So talking to her was a huge relief. No one had walked that walk before me more than she did.'

Alligator Alcatraz: Judge dismisses part of lawsuit over immigration detention center
A federal judge in Miami issued a split decision in a lawsuit over the legal rights of detainees at the 'Alligator Alcatraz' immigration detention center in the Florida Everglades, dismissing part of the suit and also moving the case to a different jurisdiction. US District Judge Rodolfo Ruiz issued the decision late Monday, writing in a 47-page ruling that claims the detainees at the facility don't have confidential access to their lawyers or to hearings in immigration court were rendered moot when the Trump administration recently designated the Krome North Processing Center near Miami as a site for their cases to be heard. The judge heard arguments from both sides in a hearing earlier Monday in Miami. Civil rights attorneys were seeking a preliminary injunction to ensure detainees at the facility have access to their lawyers and can get a hearing. The state and federal government had argued that even though the isolated airstrip where the facility is located is owned by Miami-Dade County, Florida's southern district was the wrong venue since the detention center is located in neighboring Collier County, which is in the state's middle district. Judge Ruiz had hinted during a hearing last week that he had some concerns over which jurisdiction was appropriate. The state and federal government defendants made an identical argument last week about jurisdiction for a second lawsuit in which environmental groups and the Miccosukee Tribe sued to stop further construction and operations at the Everglades detention center until it's in compliance with federal environmental laws. US District Judge Kathleen Williams in Miami on August 7, ordered a 14-day halt on additional construction at the site while witnesses testified at a hearing that wrapped up last week. She has said she plans to issue a ruling before the order expires later this week. She had yet to rule on the venue question.

Man pleads guilty in Minneapolis crash that killed Federal Reserve employee
A man has pleaded guilty to causing a crash near downtown Minneapolis that killed a woman and injured several others last fall. Talon Walker entered guilty pleas to one count of criminal vehicular homicide and two counts of criminal vehicular operation on Friday, court documents show. He was charged with several other counts, but they were dropped as part of a plea agreement. A criminal complaint states Walker was going about 100 mph at the time of the crash, which occurred along the exit ramp from Interstate 94 east near Lyndale Avenue on Oct. 23, 2024. Charges said there was an open, partially full bottle of liquor on the driver's side floorboard of Walker's car. The crash killed Natalie Gubbay, an employee at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis who was driving one of the vehicles Walker hit. At least two others were severely injured. Court records indicate Walker had a revoked license and previous convictions for careless driving and driving with an open bottle and a controlled substance. Walker is expected to receive 90 to 120 months in prison at his Oct. 2 sentencing, according to the plea agreement.
