Milwaukee mourns the death of police officer Kendall Corder during procession
The community continues to mourn fallen Milwaukee Police Officer Kendall I. Corder, who was killed last week during what authorities have described as an ambush. Residents gathered and made their way through the streets of Milwaukee on July 1 to honor Corder, who had been on the force for six years. The fallen officer was fatally shot June 26 when he and another officer, Christopher McCray, responded to a call of shots fired in an alley in the 2200 block of North 24th Place. McCray suffered injuries to his foot that were not life-threatening injuries and is expected to recover. Tremaine Jones, 22, is charged with first-degree intentional homicide, attempted first-degree intentional homicide and first-degree recklessly endangering safety in the incident. The procession stretched from Medical Examiner's Office on Highland Avenue to the Max A. Sass & Sons Funeral Home on Oklahoma Avenue. Corder's slaying was the sixth death in the line of duty death of a Milwaukee police officer since 2018, and the 68th in the department's 169-year history. This story was updated to add new information, a video and photo gallery.

California fireworks explosions: 1 killed in Simi Valley, 2 critically injured in Bay Area
California has seen a spate of accidental fireworks explosions leading up to the Fourth of July, with a Wednesday morning detonation killing one person in a Simi Valley home and a similar incident critically injuring two people in a Bay Area residence. The Ventura County Fire Department responded to a residential structure fire in the 1600 block of Edmund Street at 11:48 a.m. where a body was found in a burning garage, said department spokesperson Andy VanSciver. Then at 12:18 p.m., police and fire officials responded to a house fire involving a fireworks-related explosion more than 350 miles up the coast in Hayward, according to the city's Police Department. Two people were transported to a hospital in critical condition. Police said illegal fireworks may have been manufactured at the home. In Simi Valley, 911 callers reported seeing fireworks exploding from the garage of the home on Edmund Street, VanSciver said. It is unclear whether the fireworks started the fire or ignited as a result of the blaze, said VanSciver, adding that the incident is under investigation. The identity of the person killed has not been released. The fire spread quickly, consuming the garage, attic and main areas of the home and sending massive plumes of dark smoke into the air above the residential street. The Simi Valley Police Department urged members of the public to avoid the area as fire crews worked to get a handle on the blaze. The incident was classified as a two-alarm fire, meaning that multiple fire crews and engines were needed. Crews knocked down the blaze at 12:42 p.m. and remained on scene as of 3 p.m., VanSciver said. VanSciver urged all residents to 'leave the shows to the pros' and refrain from purchasing and detonating their own fireworks during the holiday. 'Fireworks are not legal in the cities of Camarillo, Moorpark, Ojai, Port Hueneme, Simi Valley, or Thousand Oaks — and are also not permitted in unincorporated areas of Ventura County,' the department states on its website. 'The fire prevention professionals at VCFD strongly discourage the use of any and all fireworks. ... We also remind you that use or possession of fireworks could result in a fine — and possibly even a jail term.' Meanwhile in Hayward, fire crews responded to what officials said was an accidental fireworks explosion near the 27000 block of Mandarin Avenue, according to the Hayward Police Department. Upon arriving, crews found a man suffering from injuries consistent with a fireworks-related explosion. A second explosion then took place, prompting the evacuation of the home and nearby properties, police said. Fire crews were able to quickly contain the fire started by the second explosion to the garage, preventing flames from spreading to the rest of the house or adjacent properties. A specialized team from the Alameda County Sheriff's Office was brought in to help safely remove and dispose of any explosives remaining inside the home, police said. All fireworks are illegal within the city of Hayward. Aerial footage captured by CBS News showed significant damage to the roof and side of the building. The incidents come two days after a massive fireworks explosion at a warehouse holding fireworks in Esparato, a rural area around 40 miles northwest of Sacramento. Seven workers remained unaccounted Thursday after the fiery explosion, which triggered a 78-acre wildfire that crews were still working to contain.

Deportation lawsuit involving Boulder suspect's family dismissed
Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, is pictured in his mugshot released by the Boulder (Colorado) Police Department on Monday, June 2, 2025. A judge on Wednesday dismissed a lawsuit filed by his family who are fighting deportation. File Photo via Boulder Police Department/UPI | License Photo July 3 (UPI) -- A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by the family of the man accused of attacking a group of Jewish demonstrators in Colorado last month, ruling that despite confusion caused by the Trump administration, they are receiving their full rights under immigration law and their deportation proceedings are not being expedited. Hayam El Gamal and her five children were detained by federal immigration agents on June 3, days after her husband, 45-year-old Egyptian national Mohamed Sabry Soliman, allegedly wounded more than a dozen people attending a weekly Boulder, Colo., event in support of Jewish hostages held by Hamas using a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails. One of the wounded, 82-year-old Karen Diamond, died of her injuries, prosecutors announced Monday. The family has been fighting deportation since their detention, believing their removal process was being expedited, which is not permitted under the Immigration and Nationality Act, as they have been in the country for more than two years. They received temporary restraining orders preventing their removal as the judge reviewed the case. On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Orlando Garcia dismissed their lawsuit without prejudice, finding that despite the confusion over whether their deportation was being expedited, they were, in fact, placed into ordinary removal proceedings and would appear before an immigration judge where they could seek protection from removal. "Accordingly, to the extent that petitioners seek to enjoin their removal on an expedited basis, this request is moot," Garcia said in her ruling. "And to the extent that petitioners seek to enjoin their being subjected to ordinary, or 'full,' removal proceedings, such relief is not available to them." The confusion over their removal proceedings arose from Trump administration statements published the day they were detained. The White House posted a statement to X claiming that "six one-way tickets for Mohamed's Wife and five kids" had been arranged and that "final boarding call coming soon." The tweet ended with an emoji of an airplane. A second tweet from the White House said "THEY COULD BE DEPORTED AS EARLY AS TONIGHT." The statements prompted the family to file a lawsuit seeking to halt their expedited removal. Garcia highlighted the confusion caused by the White House messaging in her ruling, but said the government has since clarified that this is not the case. "The court hastens to remind petitioners that they still have an avenue for seeking their release from detention while their removal proceedings continue," said Garcia, a President Bill Clinton appointee. The Department of Homeland Security celebrated the ruling without acknowledging the confusion caused by the White House's messaging. "This is a proper end to an absurd legal effort on the plaintiff's part," Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin at the Department of Homeland Security said in a statement. "Just like her terrorist husband, she and her children are here illegally and are rightfully in ICE custody for removal as a result." DHS has previously argued that the Soliman family is in the United States illegally. According to an earlier statement from DHS, Soliman, his wife and their five children first came to the United States on Aug. 27, 2022, and filed for asylum about a month later. They were granted entry until Feb. 26, 2023, and had apparently overstayed their visas since. Soliman has pleaded not guilty to 12 federal hate crime counts.
