Deputy and wife die as driver fleeing drug house crashes head-on, MO cops say
A man has been charged with murder two days after an off-duty deputy and his wife were killed in a head-on crash, Missouri authorities say. The 4-month-old grandchild of Deputy Sheriff Mike Adams and his wife, Ashley Adams, was the only occupant inside their minivan to survive the June 30 crash in Highlandville, according to the Christian County Sheriff's Office. Authorities said 40-year-old Garrett Grimm Cleaver was seen driving away from a known drug house, and a deputy tried pulling him over because his headlights were not working. Cleaver fled from the deputy, who lost sight of the driver's Ford F-150, according to a probable cause statement. The deputy then came upon the scene of a devastating crash, as the F-150 had crashed into a Honda minivan, authorities said. A witness to the 9 p.m. crash provided video that showed the F-150 going airborne, court records show. After it landed, the truck left the roadway, fishtailed and struck the minivan head-on. Ashley Adams and Mike Adams, a 52-year-old deputy with the Christian County Sheriff's Office, were pronounced dead at the scene, authorities said. Deputies said their grandchild was hospitalized 'in stable but serious condition' with head injuries. Cleaver was charged with two counts of second-degree murder, two counts of aggravated fleeing a stop resulting in death, one count of aggravated fleeing a stop resulting in physical injury and one count of second-degree assault, according to a July 2 news release. According to the court documents, Cleaver has an 'extensive criminal history,' including a conviction for vehicular homicide. An Air Force veteran, Mike Adams joined the Christian County Sheriff's Office in 2022, the agency said. Previously, he worked for the Scott County Sheriff's Office and Mississippi County Sheriff's Office. 'Mike was one of those guys that no matter what the situation was, or he was asked to do, you could count on him,' Sheriff Brad Cole said in a statement. 'The loss of Deputy Adams and his wife is a profound tragedy for our agency and the entire community. Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with the family, friends, and colleagues during this incredibly difficult time.' Highlandville is about a 190-mile drive southeast from Kansas City.

From the slopes to super computers, cerebral palsy doesn't stop UNM student
NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – From the slopes to supercomputers. One University of New Mexico student with cerebral palsy is a star athlete and student. Mike Adams was 11 years old when he joined the Adaptive Sports Program (ASPNM). 'I first started with a ski instructor named Brett,' said Adams. 'I've heard many times people will stop us on the slopes and go, like, holy crap, that's awesome,' said Adams. Story continues below News: The National Guard Is Deploying In Albuquerque New Mexico Strange: A dive into the Painted Lady's violent past, haunted present Trending: Albuquerque community helps band recover stolen trailer Crime: APS teacher arrested after accusations of sexual relationships with students Adams has cerebral palsy, but he isn't afraid to push the boundaries. 'Most sit-down skiers that are tethered and can't use handheld outriggers, which are skis that attach to the end of your arms and flip up and turn into ski poles, most of those athletes are going to use what we call fixed outriggers,' said Bruce Hopper, Volunteer for ASPNM. But Adams isn't like most athletes. He loves the thrill of skiing without the fixed outriggers. 'He's allowed to ski more independently and tip the ski over into the turn much more aggressively,' said Adams. 'It's just having all of us feel excitement when that happens,' said Adams. This year, ASPNM awarded Adams the 2025 Athlete of the Year. He also shines in the classroom. Adams just finished the second year of his Ph.D. program in computer science. 'I always liked computers since I was young because I cannot write, so I use the computer to communicate. And that is crucial in our lives,' said Adams. And just like on the slopes, Adams has come up with his own way to ace exams. Since 2019, Adams has been working with a UNM accommodations specialist, who helped him as a scribe during tests. Adams created his own symbols sheet as he moved through higher levels of math, so now others can use it in the future. 'The symbol sheet is helpful for the person who is scribing just because of the complexity of the problems,' said Carol Bartlett, Accommodations Specialist with the Accessibility Resource Center at UNM. Those who've worked with Adam say there's no one like him. 'I have no doubt that Mike is going to invent something incredible in the world,' said Bartlett.

New Zealand Energy Corp Announces 2025 Quarter 1 Results
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 3, 2025) - New Zealand Energy Corp. (TSXV: NZ) ("NZEC" or the "Company") announced today it has filed with Canadian regulatory authorities its Q1 2025 consolidated financial results and an accompanying management discussion and analysis report, which documents are available on the Company's website at and on SEDAR at Commenting on the Company's first quarter 2025 results, CEO Mike Adams said "The results saw a total comprehensive loss of $994,550. (2024: loss of $914,919). There was a $965,615 decrease in cash held ($155,930 was held at the end of the quarter). Cash used in operating activities for the quarter was $665,681 (2024: used $397,608)." With respect to development operations, Mr Adams commented: "New Zealand Energy Corp. (NZEC) shifted its primary focus to the Tariki Gas Field conversion project in Q1 2025. The decline in gas rate at the Tariki-5A well in January prompted an immediate change in priorities. In the short term, NZEC has been restoring accessible Waihapa-Ngaere wells to production. By the end of Q1, four wells were added back into production, with two more expected by the end of Q2, aiming for rates of ~50 to 80 bopd (NZEC share 25 to 40 bopd). Additionally, two Copper Moki workovers in June 2025 are expected to add ~200 bopd (NZEC share) and 0.2 mmscf/d of associated gas, enabling gas sales to market from late June 2025 via the Cheal Production Station. Along with the Q1 and Q2 2025 production activities, aimed at restoring positive cash flow, the focus is the Tariki Gas Storage development. Reservoir studies have commenced, with initial recommendations expected in mid-June 2025. Detailed project deliverables will be available in early August 2025, defining gas storage capacity, cushion gas requirements, and long-term storage behaviours. In parallel, NZEC has started storage facility development concept studies and is in commercial discussions with potential gas storage customers. With this work in progress, NZEC is well-positioned to advance the Tariki Gas Storage project to the Final Investment Decision (FID) stage within the next 12 months, and then to prioritise opportunities within its remaining existing acreage."

Llangollen's poignant service for 80th anniversary of VE Day
The events marked the unconditional surrender of Nazi German troops across Europe to the Allies in World War II on May 8, 1945 sparking widespread celebrations across the war-weary Allied Nations. On Thursday (May 8), the Llangollen branch of the Royal British Legion hosted a service of commemoration in Centenary Square. Prayers were said by Father Lee Taylor from St Collen's Church and there were readings from Legion branch chairman Mike Adams and member Tug Wilson. TOP STORIES Flags were lowered by a standard party and the traditional minute's silence was observed. The service ended with the sounding of Last Post. Immediately afterwards on the library steps, a civic party led by the Town Mayor, Cllr Aled Morris, and town crier Austin Cheminais read proclamations signifying the end of the Second World War in Europe 80 years ago. The Town Hall frontage was then floodlit in patriotic red, white and blue.
