READ MORE: Seven arrests made after EFL Cup fan clashes But a flyer aiming to incite homophobic chanting at Chelsea captain John Terry, which spread widely on social media, will also form part of an investigation into the scenes.

Fans of the Russian and Spanish sides clashed with members of the Ertzaintza – the local Basque police force – near San Mames ahead of the second-leg meeting. Around 200 Spartak fans made the trip from Russia and arrived early near the stadium. Those supporters and Athletic fans were involved in altercations, with bottles and flares being thrown. The Ertzaintza stepped in to keep the fighting from getting out of hand, and one of their members died of a heart attack following the conflict....

Officers previously took a 14-year-old into custody on Monday in connection with the shooting.

It is not yet known whether there is one or multiple suspects and no suspect has yet been identified. However, the Austin Police Department (APD) is seeking a man who may have been involved and have appealed for public help in finding the perpetrators.

The venue that was named after Jackie Robinson, a UCLA alum who in 1947 became the first African-American to reach the MLB stage, is no longer being used by police, according to LAPD officer Mike Lopez (via NBC News). “We’re troubled by accounts of Jackie Robinson Stadium being used as a ‘field jail,’” the university tweeted Wednesday. “This was done without UCLA’s knowledge or permission. As lessee of the stadium, we informed local agencies that UCLA will NOT grant permission should there be a request like this in the future....

The National Commission on COVID-19 and Criminal Justice (NCCCJ) released the report on Monday, which found that homicide rates across the nation were 30 percent higher from 2019 to 2020. Written in coordination with Arnold Ventures, the Commission reviewed monthly crime rates for 10 kinds of violent, property and drug offenses in 34 U.S. cities. The study’s authors reviewed a non-random sample based on which cities provided public police department data....

The short answer applies to almost all the countries of Central Europe that experienced those upheavals: the history of the battles before 1989 matters less and less to voters. For them, the accelerated pace of change makes the last 12 years feel more like a whole new era than simply a new chapter in their lives. In Poland, the latest elections represent the second or third turn of the wheel during this era....

Even today, more than four years into the war in Iraq, as many as four in 10 Americans (41 percent) still believe Saddam Hussein’s regime was directly involved in financing, planning or carrying out the terrorist attacks on 9/11, even though no evidence has surfaced to support a connection. A majority of Americans were similarly unable to pick Saudi Arabia in a multiple-choice question about the country where most of the 9/11 hijackers were born....

A new poll carried out by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and the University of Georgia’s School of Public and International Affairs showed Biden with the backing of 47 percent of Georgians, while Trump was also supported by 47 percent. An additional 1 percent of voters said they planned to back Libertarian candidate Jo Jorgensen, while 4 percent said they remained undecided. The poll also showed a close Senate race between GOP Senator David Perdue and his Democratic opponent, John Ossoff....

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki addressed the issue of Biden running again during remarks delivered on board Air Force One on Monday amid ongoing speculation about his plans, particularly in terms of his age. The president turned 79-years-old on November 20 - he was already the oldest person ever to serve as president - and his approval rating has been on a downward trajectory since late August. Psaki was asked about reports that Biden had been telling allies he would seek a second term and addressed whether he planned to run in 2024....

This creepy revelation was especially horrifying for Marc Klaas, Polly’s father, who, for the last decade, had devoted his life to keeping the likes of Karr away from children. A well-known children’s lobbyist and founder of the KlaasKids Foundation, the latest developments in the JonBenet case this week stirred up a lot of painful memories for him. After an emotional week, he speaks with NEWSWEEK about what it’s like to be a parent accused, and what role the Ramsey case has played in his own life....

Pomegranates and Your Cholesterol Unfortunately, there are not many studies examining the effects of pomegranates on cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Those studies that do exist, which have been conducted on both humans and animals, have yielded mixed results. Most studies examine the effect of pomegranate juice, rather than the whole pomegranate fruit. While some studies suggest that LDL and total cholesterol levels are slightly lowered (between 3% and 10%) by consuming pomegranate juice, other studies suggest that pomegranates may not have a significant, positive impact on any part of your lipid profile....

Pompeo spoke at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania during an unveiling of a draft report created by the Commission on Unalienable Rights. Pompeo created the commission in 2019 and it is meant to provide “advice on human rights grounded in our nation’s founding principles and the principles of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights.” While Pompeo mentioned that the U.S. historically “fell short of securing the rights of all”—specifically with its enslavement of Black people, the expulsion of Native Americans and interfering with foreign sovereignty—Pompeo said the U....

“I am allergic to those words,” he said in a speech to the Vatican communications team. One adjective in particular—“authentic”—was the focus of his attention. “We have fallen into the culture of adjectives and adverbs, and we have forgotten the strength of nouns,” His Holiness told the Dicastery for Communications. “Why say ‘authentically Christian’? It is Christian! The mere fact of the noun ‘Christian’, ‘I am Christ’ is strong: It is an adjective noun, yes, but it is a noun....

One can almost hear Pope Benedict XVI roaring with frustration at this multiplicity of interpretations. Benedict, a theologian by training with an expertise in dogma, has been fierce in his condemnation of the creep of Western secularism, and the promiscuity of recent Jesus scholarship must seem to him another symptom of the same disease, all ill-founded and subjective claims. “We are building a dictatorship of relativism,” he declared at the beginning of the 2005 enclave that elected him pope, “that does not recognize anything as definitive and whose ultimate goal consists solely of one’s own ego and desires....

According to the Mayo Clinic, an N95 respirator offers more protection than the disposable medical masks that have become commonplace. This is because N95s filter out both large and small particles when the wearer inhales. But aside from providing protection from COVID-19, a recent study out of Colorado State University found that wearing N95 respirators could reduce the public’s risk of respiratory hospitalizations caused by wildfire smoke by 22-39 percent....

Last week, U.S. District Judge Michael Simon ordered agents to stop targeting legal observers and journalists at protests in Portland in response to a class-action lawsuit filed by the ACLU. The lawsuit said federal agents have fired tear gas, pepper spray, rubber bullets and thrown flash bangs directly at both journalists and legal observers documenting the ongoing protests against police brutality and racism in Oregon’s largest city. On Tuesday, the ACLU asked a federal court to sanction and hold in contempt federal agents with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U....

The France international has been absent since September 12 after suffering a hamstring injury in the 3-0 Champions League win over FC Basel. There were fears that Pogba could be out until after Christmas, although his social media activity appears to suggest he is not too far away from being available for selection once again. Having first shown off his kung-fu skills in a video on Instagram on October 3, Pogba has given further proof he’s on the road to recovery, with the video above proving he’s not taking it lightly as he aims to get back on the pitch....
