School bus rear-ended in Grand Forks, no injuries reported
Apr. 3—GRAND FORKS — No one was injured after a school bus with two children inside was rear-ended in Grand Forks Thursday afternoon.
The crash, which occurred at the intersection of 42nd Street and DeMers Avenue, was reported to authorities at 4:17 p.m. Thursday, April 3, according to Grand Forks Police Sgt. Kevin Kallinen.
GFPD Sgt. Dana Plorin later said there were no injuries, and no one was transported to the hospital. It was a low-speed collision.
Plorin said the school bus was stopped at the railroad crossing when a college student driving a Nissan Rogue SUV rear-ended it. It was reported that they were reaching down to pick something up off the floor of their vehicle and did not realize the bus had stopped.
A citation was issued to the driver.
Kallinen said a tow truck was requested on scene, but he was unsure whether it was for the Nissan Rogue SUV that struck the bus, or the bus itself. Plorin said he was unaware of the tow truck request but had not heard of the bus sustaining damage and suspected it was much more likely that the SUV had to be towed.

Defense rests case in second trial of Karen Read for Boston police officer boyfriend's death
The defense in Karen Read's second murder trial rested its case on Wednesday, arguing she was framed for the killing of her Boston police officer boyfriend. Read, 45, faces murder and other charges for the death of John O'Keefe, who was found dead in the snow in January 2022 after a night of drinking. Prosecutors have said Read intentionally struck O'Keefe with her sport utility vehicle and left him to die. Read's defense has suggested she was the victim of a wide-ranging conspiracy that included planting evidence and using her as a convenient scapegoat for her boyfriend's death. They also unsuccessfully sought a mistrial earlier in the trial. Read's first trial ended in a hung jury.

Baldwin Park shooting suspect makes first court appearance, ordered jailed without bail
The 22-year-old man accused of shooting and killing a Baldwin Park police officer, and another man, made his first court appearance on Wednesday and was ordered to remain jailed without bail until his July 31 arraignment. Eduardo Roberto Medina-Berumen, who was injured in a gun battle with police during the May 31 incident, appeared at the Pomona Courthouse for his hearing in a wheelchair. He faces two counts of first-degree murder for the deaths of 35-year-old Officer Samuel Riveros and 43-year-old Darius Wong, a Hacienda Heights man and father of two. He also is charged with two counts of attempted murder for allegedly firing at two other Baldwin Park police officers, one who was wounded by gunfire. Wong was shot and killed as he was attempting to park his car on the street after dropping off his daughters, wife, and sister-in-law at a Baldwin Park family party Saturday evening. Minutes later, just after 7:12 p.m., police responded to reports of a man armed with a rifle, shooting on the 4200 block of Filhurst Avenue. Sheriff Robert Luna said earlier that as two police officers arrived, they found a man lying on the sidewalk "unresponsive, that ultimately, unfortunately, was Mr. Wong." The two officers who arrived in separate cars, were "immediately fired upon by this suspect, who had a rifle" Luna said. "An officer-involved shooting occurred at that time and Officer (Anthony) Pimentel was injured as a result of the suspect's gunfire." Riveros, a nine-year department veteran, arrived shortly after and was struck by gunfire, Luna said. More officers responded to the scene and a second officer-involved shooting occurred with the suspect. Medina-Berumen suffered gunshot wounds and was treated in the hospital. An AR-15-style weapon with two high-capacity magazines was recovered at the scene, Luna said earlier. Medina-Berumen also faces a possession of an assault rifle charge. During Wednesday's brief court hearing, Deputy District Attorney Michael Michelena told Superior Court Judge Ramiro P. Cisneros that prosecutors can prove the defendant was standing outside his home with a short-barrel rifle and "started firing indiscriminately." Michelena said Wong was shot before officers arrived. Officers "took him (Medina-Berumen) into custody after he ran out of ammunition," the prosecutor said.
