Authorities suspend ground search for northern Minnesota man missing for weeks

Authorities suspend ground search for northern Minnesota man missing for weeks originally appeared on Bring Me The News. The Cook County Sheriff's Office has suspended a ground search for a 40-year-old northern Minnesota man who's been missing since the beginning of July. Gene Doherty was last seen leaving his mother's home near Silver Bay on July 1. His vehicle, a 2009 Ford Edge, was found on July 11 on Brule Lake Road between Cascade Lake and Little Cascade Lake, part of the Superior National Forest. The sheriff's office says it's suspending the ground search for Doherty due to challenging terrain, limited resources, and a lack of results from search and rescue operations. For the past week, authorities have focused on the 451-acre Cascade Lake, where a detection dog pinpointed Doherty's scent at the public boat landing, with crews using boats and sonar to search the water and shoreline. 'We've had a great search and rescue group,' Cook County Sheriff Pat Eliasen told WTIP. "They give it everything." The sheriff's office plans to continue searching Cascade Lake every day until July 22. After that, crews will reassess and "maybe try something else," the sheriff told the Grand Marais-based radio station. "We're going to keep it up as long as we can, as long as resources hold out, and as long as we can get people to do it," Eliasen said. The Cook County Sheriff's Office, Cook County Search and Rescue, the U.S. Forest Service, and St. Louis County Search and Rescue have been assisting in the search and rescue effort. Anyone with information should contact the Lake County Sheriff's Office at 218-834-8385, or 911.

Alo store in DC targeted by masked retail theft ring, $20K worth of clothing stolen: police

A group of masked thieves are wanted in Washington, DC, after they targeted a luxury athletic apparel store and made off with about $20,000 in merchandise late last month, authorities said. Six suspects entered an Alo store in DC's Georgetown neighborhood at around 7:30 p.m. on June 30, the Metropolitan Police Department said. Surveillance video shows the suspects walking past what appears to be a security guard standing at the door before swiping clothing off clothing racks and display counters. The suspects left the store with armfuls of merchandise before escaping the scene in a silver or gray Ford Edge with covered tags, police said. The vehicle sped away in an unknown direction on Wisconsin Ave NW. 3 Police released surveillance video showing six masked suspects who are wanted in connection with the retail theft.

20 Ford And Lincoln Models Hit With 2025's Favorite Recall

20 Ford And Lincoln Models Hit With 2025's Favorite Recall originally appeared on Autoblog. It's happened again, and by 'it' we actually mean two things. First, Ford has another recall to add to a fast-growing list of them in 2025. Secondly, the recall concerns the same issue that's been striking brands from all over the world: a backup camera image that may not display - something almost 1.1 million Ford vehicles were recalled for a month ago. According to the recall documents lodged with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the issue potentially affects 200,061 vehicles, and what makes it more difficult for Ford to deal with is that it affects small numbers of some 20 different models, including some under the Lincoln banner. This is an issue with severe possible consequences, particularly as rearview cameras have become an obligatory part of every automaker's vehicle production process (for anything that weighs under 10,000 pounds) since 2018, and their widespread, longtime use has made many drivers reliant on the technology. Nonetheless, some responsibility, at least after owner notification letters go out at the end of the month (July 28), will lie on drivers.

SUVs vs Sedans: The Data Behind America's New Favorite Car

In 2025, for every sedan sold in the U.S., nearly four SUVs rolled off the lot. That's not a marketing blip-it's a cultural shift that's been two decades in the making. Sedans once ruled the American cul-de-sac. Now they sit lonely in rental lots, gathering pollen and existential despair. Let's put it into drive: In 2005, sedans outsold SUVs by more than 2 to 1. In 2025, the inverse is true. The station wagon died in the '90s. The sedan? That funeral's happening now-in slow motion, with a premium sound system and 360° cameras. Looking at the data, if you are a geek like me, have you ever seen such a perfect crossover line chart? So what happened? Why did the sedan, once a symbol of mid-size American reason, lose its spot in the driveway? Let's break it down. Americans like seeing over traffic. Period. We're a nation of drive-thru pragmatists-if you can't see the menu board from the driver's seat, forget it. SUVs give you elevation, posture, and that tall-boy sense of control. Sedans? You're crouching. Behind a Sprinter van. In the rain. Sure, center of gravity matters on a twisty backroad. But for most people, the "canyon" is a Costco parking lot, not the Pacific Coast Highway. SUVs ride higher and feel safer-even if crash data tells a more complex story. You ever tried stuffing a teenage hockey player, their gear, and a golden retriever into a Corolla? SUVs redefined what American families expect from their haulers. Fold-flat seats. Liftgates you can open with your foot. Room for a week's worth of road trip junk food and regret. Sedans had trunks. SUVs have zones. And automakers know it-look at the Ford Edge, Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V. These aren't niche vehicles. They're the Big Macs of the road. Back in 2008, SUVs were still suburban-school-run boxes. Now they're sculpted, turbocharged, and optionally electrified. Meanwhile, sedans either went fleet-rental basic or luxury-snob awkward. That weird moment when your neighbor buys a $72,000 electric Lucid Air while you're still making payments on a '22 Civic? That's what killed the sedan. Crossovers like the Mazda CX-5 and Hyundai Ioniq 5 offer premium-feel without premium price tags. They look good next to your grill, your gym bag, and your life. Sedans now feel like the "business casual" of transportation: polite, functional, uninspired. You want a Tesla Model 3? Cool. But what everyone else is ordering is a Tesla Model Y. Or a Mustang Mach-E. Or a Rivian R1S. The EV future is skipping the sedan-straight into crossover shape. It's packaging efficiency. Battery layout works better in taller frames. And again: cargo, clearance, command seating. Most automakers are leaning hard into this-because that's what sells. Toyota's still making Camrys. Honda's still moving Accords. But it's getting lonely. Even performance sedans are pivoting-see the Dodge Charger Daytona EV or BMW's slope-roofed M variants. The sedan isn't dead. It's just being slowly pushed into "enthusiast only" territory. Like stick shifts. Or compact discs. So here we are: a nation where the driveway kings wear hiking boots, not loafers. Sedans still have their devotees-folks who want refinement over road height, balance over bulk. But they're losing the numbers game. Fast. The real question? What happens when the SUV gets too big, too bloated, too… everything? Do we cycle back to the sedan? Or are we just one cupholder away from a full minivan revival? Don't laugh. We've seen that before. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
