At least 11 knifed in random US Walmart attack, suspect held

At least 11 people were stabbed at a Walmart in Traverse City on Saturday – with six in critical condition – in what the sheriff said appeared to be a random act. A suspect was in custody, authorities said. Advertisement 'Eleven is 11 too many, but thank God it wasn't more,' Grand Traverse County Sheriff Michael Shea told reporters. 'Based on the information that we have at this time, it appears they were random acts,' he said. 'The victims were not predetermined.' The suspect, a Michigan resident, apparently acted alone, he said, adding that the weapon involved appeared to be a folding-style knife. Emergency vehicles and uniformed first responders were seen outside the store following the incident.

Trump says he hasn't thought about pardon for Epstein's ex Ghislaine Maxwell

US President Donald Trump said on Friday he has not considered granting a pardon or commutation for Ghislaine Maxwell, the former girlfriend and long-time associate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein who is back in the news amid a political furore over the case. 'It's something I haven't thought about,' Trump told reporters when asked about the possibility of a pardon for Maxwell. 'I'm allowed to do it, but it's something I have not thought about.' Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence at a federal prison in Tallahassee, Florida, after being found guilty in 2021 of helping Epstein sexually abuse teenage girls. She is currently appealing against her sentence. Maxwell completed a second day of interviews with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in Tallahassee, Florida, on Friday after the US Justice Department reached out to her lawyers to see if she had additional information about the case. David Markus, a lawyer for Maxwell, told reporters she answered questions truthfully, but declined to detail what was discussed. 'The truth will come out about what happened with Mr Epstein, and she's the person who's answering those questions,' Markus said.
