Judge Blocks Detention of Mahmoud Khalil Under Foreign-Policy Provision
A federal judge in New Jersey on Wednesday blocked the Trump administration from detaining Mahmoud Khalil under a seldom-used provision of immigration law related to foreign-policy interests, putting the former Columbia student a step closer to being able to stay in the U.S. The ruling from U.S. District Judge Michael Farbiarz doesn't mean Khalil will immediately be released from an immigration detention facility in rural Louisiana.

Not-so-hot pursuit of burglary suspect sees police cars chase tractor excavator at walking pace
NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — Police in South Carolina engaged in a not-so-hot pursuit as they chased a tractor excavator down a main highway for more than an hour at the speed an average adult walks. The chase reached speeds of 3 mph (4.8 kph) early Sunday morning in North Charleston, police said. Officers on a different call saw the big piece of construction equipment with treads and a shovel in front go across U.S. Highway 78 around 3:30 a.m., North Charleston Police wrote in their report. A few minutes later, they got a burglary call from a business that was heavily damaged and saw the excavator slowly heading away, police said. Several cars immediately joined in the very slow speed pursuit. The excavator was going so slow that the cruisers would have to briefly stop several times a minute to not pass the construction equipment. They had their blue lights and sirens on and told the excavator driver over their loudspeakers that he was under arrest and needed to stop. Other cruisers blocked traffic. The chase went on for an hour and 12 minutes before the excavator drove on to the Charleston County Fairgrounds property, where it got stuck. The driver tried to run, but was followed by a drone until a police dog and handler caught up, authorities said. The 53-year-old driver of the excavator was charged with failure to stop for a blue light and two counts of malicious injury to real property and remained in the Charleston County jail on a $22,000 bond, according to jail records.
