U.S. Open Golfer Accused of Trashing Locker Room
The rugged conditions at Oakmont Country Club got the best of several golfers at this weekend's U.S. Open. One former U.S. Open winner, frustrated by his performance, reportedly took things too far. Wyndham Clark, who won the major two years ago at Los Angeles Country Club, is accused of trashing the locker room after missing the cut on Friday. Advertisement Clark shot eight-over for the first two rounds, missing the cut by one stroke. According to media personality "Tron Carter" of the "No Laying Up" podcast, the 31-year-old Denver native broke multiple lockers after his second round was complete. "Multiple sources confirming that [Wyndham Clark] really got after it in the Oakmont locker room," wrote Carter, whose real name is Todd Schuster. "Super classy, desecrating one of the most historic spots in golf AND on the heels of his behavior at Quail Hollow. Probably time to put him in the cooler for a few months." Carter, who used Clark's nickname "Blow Pig" in the tweet, went on to share photos of a pair of lockers that were damaged, with the screens partially detached and folding inward. If Carter/Schuster's reporting is accurate, this isn't the first time Clark's temper has gotten him in trouble. Advertisement At the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow last month, Clark issued a public apology after throwing his driver in frustration following a bad shot. "I would like to sincerely apologize for my behavior on Hole 16. As professionals, we are expected to remain professional even when frustrated and I unfortunately let my emotions get the best of me," Clark wrote. "My actions were uncalled for and completely inappropriate, making it clear that I have things I need to work on. I hold myself to a high standard, trying to always play for something bigger than myself, and yesterday I fell short of those standards. For that, I am truly sorry. I promise to be better the way I handle my frustrations on the course going forward, and hope you all can forgive me in due time." Clark, who hasn't won on the PGA Tour since his victory at the U.S. Open two years ago, has struggled at majors this year. He finished tied for 46th at the Masters and tied for 50th at the PGA Championship before missing the cut this weekend. Advertisement Last year, Clark missed the cut at three of four majors.

Ekhart Mayor Rod Roberson says 'city is heartbroken' by deadly mass shooting June 15
In a statement released Sunday afternoon, June 15, Elkhart Mayor Rod Roberson extended his condolences to families of the person killed and the 11 people wounded in a mass shooting that occurred early Sunday morning. "My heart aches for our community," he said. "Once again, our beloved city has been tragically stricken by senseless gun violence." In an earlier press release, the Elkhart Police Department said multiple people fired handguns in the West Garfield Avenue/Benham Avenue area of Elkhart early Sunday morning. Police received a call of shots fired in the 300 block of West Garfield at about 1:11 a.m. June 15. Twelve people were either taken to area hospitals or showed up on their own, said police, who were said to be processing evidence in a large area between the 200 and 400 blocks of West Garfield. Some of the injured have already been treated and released, according to the first press release. "The pain and ripple effects of this devastating event will undoubtedly be felt deeply across our entire community for a long time," Roberson said in his statement. "Our city is heartbroken, and I, personally, am devastated by this profound loss and trauma." The mayor also praised the city's first responders "for their immediate and courageous actions. Their swift efforts in the face of such a horrific scene undoubtedly saved many more lives, and their dedication is truly commendable." Elkhart also was the scene of a mass shooting Jan. 27 at the Martin's Super Market on East Jackson Boulevard. In that incident, Juan M. Sanchez, 54, who had moved to Elkhart from Illinois in April 2024, shot and killed a store employee, Annasue Rocha, 19, and a store customer, Benjamin S. Jeffrey, 49. Two Elkhart Police officers, Corporal Paul Vandenburg and Patrolman Ethan Pasternak, were also injured when Sanchez shot at them after they confronted Sanchez outside the store. The officers returned fire, killing Sanchez. They were released from the hospital after being treated for their injuries, and the Elkhart County Prosecutor's office ruled their use of deadly forced justified. The Elkhart County Homicide Unit has taken over the investigation, police said, asking anyone with information, video, photos or eyewitness accounts about the June 15 shootings to call the homicide unit at 574-295-2825 or Crime Stoppers at 574-288-STOP. Tribune staff writer Cory Havens contributed to this report. This article originally appeared on South Bend Tribune: Elkhart mass shooting leaves 1 dead and 11 wounded

One dead after shooting at ‘No Kings' protest in Salt Lake City
SALT LAKE CITY (KTVX) — A person is dead after they were struck by crossfire during an incident at a 'No Kings' protest in downtown Salt Lake City on Saturday, police have confirmed. Salt Lake City police officers responded to the area of 151 South State Street just before 8 p.m. after hearing gunshots. Officers found one person with a gunshot wound. The victim was taken to the hospital in critical condition, and their injuries were considered life-threatening, police said Saturday. During a press conference Sunday, authorities confirmed the victim, a 39-year-old man, has died. Police said Sunday that a person acting as security fired at another man, Arturo Gamboa, who witnesses said had an AR-15 at the protest. He was hit once by gunfire and taken into custody. The 39-year-old man who died was caught in the crossfire, according to police. A camera operated by the Utah Department of Transportation appeared to capture the moment of the shooting. In the video below, which has no audio, people can be seen walking through downtown Salt Lake City carrying signs. Two people, including one wearing a bright yellow vest, can be seen running from the bottom left corner of the video north along South State Street as the crowd disperses away from the area. As some members of the crowd slowly return to the area, a Salt Lake City police squad pulls into the intersection with its lights on. Another police vehicle then passes the squad while traveling north on South State Street. The video ends after the driver of the truck seems to speak with a person in the street before traveling northward. A crew from Nexstar's KTVX saw a person believed to have been injured in the shooting being treated on scene. Salt Lake City Police initially believed the shooting involved four people in total. After getting information from witnesses, police pursued one of the suspects and took them into custody near 200 East 100 South. In total, three people were taken into custody, including a man believed to be the shooter, who also suffered a gunshot wound, according to Police Chief Brian Redd. Additional details were not available Sunday. Officials advised there are no other suspects outstanding and there is no current threat to the community. The motive of the shooting and the events leading to it are still under investigation. Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall called the shooting, as well as 'violence… elsewhere in the country,' horrific. 'We deserve to feel safe, especially when exercising our First Amendment rights,' the statement continued. 'Thank you to the Salt Lake City Police Department for their quick action tonight to protect lives and support those marching peacefully. My heart is with you, SLC. We'll get through this.' Utah Governor Spencer Cox shared similar sentiments. 'The shooting at tonight's protest in Salt Lake City is a deeply troubling act of violence and has no place in our public square. This is an active situation, and we're working closely with law enforcement to ensure accountability.' Sunday's protest in Salt Lake City was part of the 'No Kings' movement, with other protests held nationwide set to coincide with the planned celebration of the U.S. Army's 250th birthday and President Donald Trump's 79th birthday.
