10 dead in shooting rampage near Los Angeles
At least 10 people were killed and 10 others wounded in a shooting rampage at a dance club after a Lunar New Year celebration in Monterey Park, California, authorities said. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department issued a brief statement saying the shooting was reported at 10:22 p.m. Saturday. After an hours-long manhunt, authorities said the suspect in the mass shooting shot himself to death in his van as law enforcement agents approached Sunday. Monterey Park is a city of 60,000 people about 10 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. The shooting took place shortly after a Lunar New Year celebration brought thousands of people to the city, which has a majority-Asian population. The attack was the nation's deadliest shooting since 24 people were killed in a Texas school in May.

More documents found after DOJ searches Biden's Delaware home
The FBI found an additional six items with classified material from President Joe Biden's home in Wilmington, Delaware, during a search Friday, according to the president's lawyers. The search turned up classified documents from Biden's time as vice president and in the U.S. Senate, Bob Bauer, Biden's personal attorney, said in a statement Saturday. The revelation comes amid a special counsel investigation into Biden's handling of classified documents. The 13-hour search took place after Biden's legal team gave the Justice Department access to the president's home upon finding an initial batch of classified documents there earlier this month. Bauer said the Justice Department was given "full access" to the home including personally handwritten notes, files, papers, binders, memorabilia, to-do lists, schedules and reminders that go back "decades."

Protest of environmental activist Tortuguita's death turns violent in Atlanta
A protest turned violent in downtown Atlanta on Saturday night after the death of an environmental activist who was killed by police this week. Activists threw rocks and lit fireworks in front of a skyscraper that houses the Atlanta Police Foundation, shattering large glass windows. They then lit a police cruiser on fire. The violent protesters were a subsection of hundreds of demonstrators who had gathered and marched up Atlanta’s famed Peachtree Street to mourn the death of the protester, a nonbinary person who went by the name Tortuguita and used they/it pronouns. Tortuguita, 26, was killed Wednesday as authorities cleared a small group of protesters from the site of a planned Atlanta-area police training center that activists have dubbed “Cop City.”
