German regional train derails, killing at least three people
A regional passenger train derailed in southern Germany, killing at least three people and seriously injuring others on Sunday, authorities said. Federal and local police said the cause of the crash near Riedlingen, 158 kilometres west of Munich, remains under investigation. Photos from the scene showed parts of the train on its side as rescuers climbed atop the carriages. It was not immediately clear how many people were injured. Roughly 100 people were onboard the train when at least two carriages derailed in a forested area around 6:10 pm. Storms passed through the area before the crash, and investigators were seeking to determine if the rain was a factor. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said in a post on social platform X that he mourned the victims and gave his condolences to their families. Deutsche Bahn, Germany's main national railway operator, said in a statement that it was cooperating with investigators. The company also offered its condolences.

Four adults accused of torturing kids by putting them in cages and spraying their faces with vinegar
Four adults are accused of holding nine children captive inside their Florida home, locking them in cages and spraying them with vinegar as part of a sick punishment, authorities said. Husband and wife Brian and Jill Griffeth, as well as 21-year-old Dallin and 19-year-old Liberty Griffeth, were arrested and charged with aggravated child abuse, the Columbia County Sheriff's Office said Friday. The four adults are accused of locking the children inside cages in their bedrooms, giving them non-prescribed medication and not providing them adequate schooling – all while instructing them to lie about what happens in their Fort White, Florida, home. The children were also 'forced to lie on the floor by the mother, Jill, and having her place a sheet of plywood on top of the child's body and press down on them, resulting in splinters and pain,' according to the sheriff's office. When punishing the children – five of whom are biological to the couple, while four were adopted – the adults would spray them in the face with vinegar, authorities said. An investigation into the alleged child abuse happening to the nine children, aged between seven and 16, stemmed from concerns from a mandatory reporter at their local church of church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In the days before their arrests, one of the children was caught at a church camp with a functioning electronic stun gun, authorities said. 'Additional concerns were raised about the adopted children being treated unfairly compared to the Griffeth biological children, in addition to the children not knowing their full name or their own birthdays,' the sheriff's office said. When authorities went to the home, they saw the adopted children working on chores while the biological children were playing and watching television. Authorities then discovered the couple shared a 10th foster child, who was not present but with their biological parent in Arizona. A well-being check concluded that child was safe and healthy. When authorities began investigating, the adopted children made additional accusations against the adults, including that they were being beaten with a cane and locked in their bedrooms by Brian and the other adults. All nine of the children have been court-ordered to be removed from the home, authorities said. All four adults were arrested on July 22 for aggravated child abuse. They are all being held in the Columbia County Detention Facility on $500,000 bonds.
