TAKEOFF,

Manhunt Ongoing for I-75 Shooter in Kentucky,

A manhunt got underway Sunday in Kentucky for a gunman who opened fire near Interstate 75.

Eight people were injured in the shooting and an accompanying vehicle accident. Five victims sustained gunshot wounds.

Joseph Couch, 32, was named a person of interest in the shooting. Authorities found Couch’s vehicle off a forest service road and a rifle in a wooded area off the interstate.

Evidence indicates the shooting was premeditated, but investigators have not yet named a motive as search efforts continue in the remote area.

Dolphins’ Tyreek Hill Arrested, Cop Suspended,

Miami Dolphins star receiver Tyreek Hill was arrested by police on his way to the team’s opening-day game with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Hill was stopped for speeding one block from the stadium and then handcuffed when he became uncooperative. Another player, Calais Campbell, intervened with police and was also placed in handcuffs.

Miami officials are investigating the incident and the officer involved was put on administrative leave.

Both Dolphin players were let go after Hill was cited for careless driving. Hill scored a key touchdown on an 80-yard pass and pretended to be in handcuffs to celebrate his score. The Dolphins beat the Jaguars 20-17.

Ohio Sisters’ Inherited Dime Could Fetch $500,000,

The coin, one of only two known to exist, is now up for grabs through GreatCollections in an online auction set to end in October.

And Now, A word From one of Our Sponsors,

Before we go let me tell you about one of the books found on my Bookstore,

Go to https:// payhip.com/ Christian NonFiction eBookStore then scroll down and click on Interactive Romans Road King James Version

Long Ago, when the Roman Empire was at the height of its glory, a common saying was “All Roads Lead to Rome.” I want to tell you about a very special road — a road that existed then and still exists now. This road, now almost 2,000 years old, has never led to Rome. Yet, strangely enough, it is called the Romans Road.

This takes the reader to selected passages in the Book of Romans in the Bible to explain the plan of Salvation. This is the ideal way to share the gospel using your Kindle. The reader can also read the entire book of Romans un-interrupted.
