ST. LOUIS - Canadian wildfires creating air quality concerns in parts of the United States are also raising questions about air quality levels locally. The St. Louis region has seen a string of days with air quality alerts. “Air pollution can have a lot of effects on your health,” said Susannah Fuchs, director of clean air at the American Lung Association in Missouri. She said current air pollution concerns in the St. Louis area are different from what places such as New York are experiencing. Fuchs said ozone pollution created from various emissions, heat, and sunlight has contributed to air quality concerns in the St. Louis area.

Officers with the Los Angeles Police Department were in pursuit of a driver in a pickup truck suspected of driving recklessly and being intoxicated with a child in the vehicle. Police initiated the pursuit in the Santa Monica area with the suspect traveling westbound on the 10 Freeway before exiting at Lincoln Boulevard and eventually transitioning to the traffic-congested northbound 405 Freeway. LAPD ground units pulled back from the pursuit suspect as the driver weaved in and out of lanes and began to monitor the pickup truck the air. As the pursuit continued, the driver exited at Burbank Boulevard, but continued straight to stay on the 405 Freeway, eventually transitioning to the 5 Freeway and, later, the 14 Freeway. After LAPD units stopped tracking the driver, officers with the California Highway Patrol did not immediately takeover the chase. As Sky5 left the area, the pursuit suspect was last seen driving on the northbound 14 Freeway toward Palmdale without any law enforcement...San Clemente beaches closing early amid increasing public safety concerns

San Clemente beaches will now close two hours early at 10 p.m. amid growing public safety concerns. The change was approved Tuesday and went into effect Wednesday night. However, it won’t be enforced until signs are officially posted at the beach. A unanimous city council vote approved the rule following a May 26 assault involving three Marines being beaten by a crowd of teenagers at the San Clemente Pier.The move addresses ongoing concerns over increasing public safety issues at the beach and nearby downtown areas. Officials also approved the hiring of more private security to patrol the beaches.The early closure would fall in line with most Orange County beaches which generally close at 10 p.m. as well.“I don’t think anything good happens on those beaches after 10 p.m.," said Councilmember Victor Cabral. "I think it’s an appropriate time to close them."“It’s long overdue,” said Councilmember Mark Enmeier.Cell phone video recorded the beaten of two off-duty Marines on the San Cleme...These Southern California water projects received millions in grant funding to combat drought, floods

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — The brother of a gay American who was attacked and fell from a Sydney cliff top in 1988 said elements within local police had demonized their family over their pursuit of justice.An Australian man was sentenced to nine years in prison Thursday for killing Scott Johnson at the known gay haunt. His older brother Steve Johnson led the family’s efforts to overturn a coroner’s finding in 1989 that the openly gay mathematician had taken his own life.Steve Johnson told Australian Broadcasting Corp. on Friday that evidence in a New South Wales state government inquiry into gay hate crimes had confirmed “our worst fears that the police were really not only opposed to the investigation but demonizing our family.”“It’s still a question mark why? Maybe they thought of Scott’s case as a tinderbox that would force them to work on the other 100 cases of gay men who died during the same period,” Steve Johnson said.“There are still some in the police force that are opposed...Estas son las otras investigaciones de las que Donald Trump tiene que preocuparse
