Man found guilty in 2023 fatal stabbing of 60-year-old Michigan woman
A man accused of fatally stabbing a Michigan woman and attacking a man in 2023 was found guilty on Thursday, according to the Macomb County Prosecutor's Office. Shane Burns, 33, of Washington Township, Michigan, was convicted of one count of first-degree premeditated murder, assault, felon in possession of a weapon, two counts of felony firearm, felon in possession of ammunition, disarming a peace officer and carrying a concealed weapon. Burns was also charged as a habitual offender. Macomb County Prosecutor's Office Prosecutors say on May 17, 2023, Burns stabbed 60-year-old Cheryl Ann Parsley, of Clinton Township, and slit her throat in a random attack. The incident happened in a Belle Tire parking lot on Gratior Avenue in Roseville. Authorities say Burns then attacked 42-year-old Robert Baecke Jr., who was waiting at a bus stop on 12 Mile Road and Harper Avenue in St. Clair Shores. Police arrested Burns later that day near Van Dyke and Stephens. The prosecutor's office says that while in custody, Burns began biting his wrist, and a struggle occurred with officers. Authorities say Burns grabbed a knife and began cutting his wrist. A search of his vehicle uncovered a shotgun, a 9mm gun and ammunition. "Today's verdict brings a measure of justice to the victims of this horrific attack. Our thoughts are with the victims and their families, who have shown extraordinary strength. We hope this conviction offers them some solace. I want to thank the investigators, first responders, and our prosecution team for their tireless work. While nothing can undo the harm caused, we remain committed to pursuing justice for all victims of violent crime," said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido in a news release. Sentencing is scheduled for July 24. NOTE: The video above previously aired on May 18, 2023.

Joann Chapter 11 bankruptcy: List of all stores closing this month
After more than 80 years in business, all Joann stores are set to permanently close by May 31. The beloved fabric and craft retailer is shutting its doors for good. Back in April, Joann closed 255 of its stores, just months after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy for the second time in a year. Since then, the company has been holding going-out-of-business sales at many of its locations. According to prices at these sales have been heavily discounted—ranging from 70% to 90% off. (Online sales have already ended.) In addition to crafts and fabric, stores are also selling off furniture, shelves, and other equipment. The remaining 440+ stores will close by the end of May, according to Jo Anne McCusker, spokesperson for GA Group. The retail liquidation company acquired all of Joann's assets at auction earlier this year. Hundreds of Joann locations have already closed. More than 400 remaining stores will close by the end of May, according to a list shared with Fast Company.

Home of elderly Roseville residents vandalized 4 times in one week
ROSEVILLE -- A call for community help is being made after a Roseville home was vandalized four times in the last week, leaving the elderly homeowners distressed and scared. The home is in a neighborhood near Ferretti Park in Roseville, near Circuit Drive and Duranta Street. The first act of vandalism happened last year, according to the couple's daughter, Kerry Davies, who said the home's back door was kicked in and destroyed. In the months that followed, the couple upgraded their home security but it wasn't enough to stop nightly acts of vandalism this week. The first incident was on Sunday and involved two masked vandals throwing containers of food at the couple's front door. In a security video shared with CBS Sacramento, one of the people in the video dumps a bottle of liquid onto the front porch and then smashes the glass container. When the security lights come on, the two disappear into the neighborhood, one on a bike and the other on a scooter. The second incident came on Tuesday, when the same two vandals threw a container of food at the front door, but before leaving, the person on the bike fired BB gun pellets into the front window. The pellets shattered the glass, but Davies said Roseville police were able to take pellets as evidence from inside the home. "My parents are in their eighties. They suffer from many medical issues. My father, cancer. My mom, congestive heart failure, and obviously, this has put them into distress," Davies told CBS Sacramento. In the latest incident, on Thursday night, Davies said the home alarm system alerted the neighborhood to activity. Neighbors came out to check in on her parents, as did Roseville police, she said. This, Davies said, is why she wanted to share their story, so the community could come together and help. She shared the security footage of the incidents as well as her parents' stories in the hopes that another neighbor may have information that leads to identifying the two people from the videos. "I do want the neighborhood, the neighborhood that my parents have been in for over a decade, to realize that this is happening in their neighborhood, and if they can keep a watch out for them and for each other, and come together as a community," said Davies. CBS Sacramento reached out to the Roseville Police Department for more information but did not hear back in time for this story.

A single incident brought Sydney's train network to a standstill – again. Here's why it keeps happening
Once again, vulnerabilities of Sydney's rail network have been exposed, bringing the city to a standstill. Unlike train systems in most global cities, almost all rail lines converge over a short stretch in the city's west. Complicating the issue further is a reliance on hand-delivered paper communications between train staff. At peak hour on Wednesday morning, buses were packed with frustrated commuters who normally rely on trains to get from Sydney's north shore into the city. 'Nah, mate, I'm on a bloody bus,' a banker from Roseville wearing a three-piece suit said into his AirPods as he tried to explain why he was late for a meeting. Sign up for Guardian Australia's breaking news email It was 18 hours after a live wire with enough voltage to instantly kill a human fell on the top of a train, trapping 300 passengers onboard and grinding all heavy rail lines – with the exception of the Eastern Suburbs and Illawarra line – to a halt, but train riders across the city had still been warned to avoid using the network. Some lines had resumed, with heavy delays, but where exactly they were running was unclear. The banker from Roseville had checked the TripView and Google Maps apps but was unable to ascertain if trains were even running from Roseville station, a short stroll from his home. Instead, he walked roughly half an hour to an arterial road to catch a bus into the city. Bus after bus whooshed past, too full to pick up passengers. 'Sydney, it's the best city in the world, until the trains cark it again,' he said. While transport chiefs and the state premier, Chris Minns, swiftly apologised to commuters and promised a fare-free day next week, the pattern felt all too common. An independent review into the incident and train unreliability more broadly will soon begin. However, experts, including former senior rail department leaders, say there is little that can be done to prevent city-wide outages from recurring. While technical issues are unavoidable on a rail network that hosts 400m trips each year, the latest outage has reignited the nagging question on the minds of millions of Sydneysiders: how can just one incident on one train at a station with multiple tracks bring down an entire city's rail network? Increasingly, another question is front of mind: how can communications from transport authorities be so poor when the worst does happen? The answer to the first question is easier to comprehend, and dates back to plans made in the early 1900s – including a famous vision for new lines from Sydney Harbour Bridge engineer John Bradfield – about how to expand the rail network to cater to a growing Sydney. Rather than a master plan for new lines independent of each other – as modern metro and underground systems were increasingly being built throughout the 20th century – the approach for Sydney was to take advantage of the huge capacity of the six tracks that comprise its main western railway between Central and Strathfield. In cities such as London, commuters can avoid a bottleneck or outage on one line by switching to another to dodge a problem section of track. But almost all heavy rail services in Sydney's suburban network – including trains to the Central Coast, Blue Mountains, City Circle or Airport – are routed to pass through the Central-Strathfield corridor. 'A lot of our lines are tangled with each other,' Sydney Trains CEO, Matt Longland, said. 'At this critical pinch point … one incident in a location like this can bring down a significant part of the network.' In the case of Roseville station on the North Shore line, city-bound trains do not traverse the Central-Strathfield stretch before reaching the CBD, but services then continue on the same tracks to the western suburbs past Strathfield. Once any track is closed, the conga-line of trains using it must halt, and city-wide timetables go out the window. Attempts have been made in recent years to detangle the train lines, and on Wednesday, Longland said 'simplifying' the network would be examined as part of the review. The Eastern Suburbs line, constructed in the 1970s, and new Metro lines are independent and weren't harmed by Tuesday's outage – the more complicated task is restructuring the network's overall design to avoid a single point of failure.

Communications to passengers on Tuesday evening were frenzied and inconsistent. A snap press conference was called for 4.30pm and commuters urged to 'plan ahead' to make alternative travel plans home. There were chaotic scenes at Sydney's Central station as thousands of commuters heading home flooded platforms to board trains that were mostly not running. Departure information screens did not display up-to-date information and station staff gave conflicting messages about how commuters should get home. Widely used travel apps which rely on government data were rendered useless as timetabled services were abandoned in favour of shuttle train services not reflected in apps. This, however, did not stop station staff relying on Google Maps and TripView to give travellers incorrect advice. Minns has said that communications will be examined in the snap review of the incident. '[Even] if there's no information because the problem hasn't been diagnosed yet, well that's still information that would be valuable [for commuters] to have,' Minns said. 'Even if it is inconvenient, even if it is sometimes embarrassing for the government, it's still crucial for commuters to know.' However, improving internal staff communications will also be essential. Multiple rail sources speaking on the condition of anonymity have told Guardian Australia that in some parts of the network, information about disruptions is delivered to staff on trains by hand-delivered notes, including writing on carbon paper to replicate messages. 'Parts of the system remain very archaic, hand-delivering paper to drivers and guards,' one source said. Another added: 'This is a network that started in 1855 and many parts of the network operate under historic practices. It's hard to update all at once when you're dealing with thousands of kilometres of track.' For now, before the review can be conducted and findings implements, Sydneysiders should not be surprised by more city-wide train failures. After months of industrial action-related outages, and with the memory of a horror run of similar rail outages in the weeks before the NSW Coalition lost the 2023 election and Labor formed government, Minns appears under no illusions about the importance of ensuring trains run smoothly. 'I stay up at nights worrying about this,' he said.
