Ecuador opposition candidate alleges fraud
Right-wing opposition candidate Guillermo Lasso alleged fraud Sunday in Ecuador's presidential runoff election, vowing to contest results that had his rival Lenin Moreno extending a decade of socialist rule. Moreno, the designated heir to President Rafael Correa's "21st-century socialism," had 51.12 percent of the vote to 48.88 percent for ex-banker Lasso, with 96.21 percent of districts reporting, said the National Electoral Council. Lasso said his campaign had evidence of an attempt to rig the results.
Tulsa cop facing trial for killing black man says race not a factor
In an unusual appearance on CBS News' "60 Minutes" on Sunday, officer Betty Shelby insisted her actions, captured on videotape, were driven entirely by the behavior of the man she shot, Terence Crutcher. Although the footage showed Crutcher, 40, had his hands in the air as he stood beside his car in a roadway just before Shelby shot him, she said the video fails to show clearly that he suddenly reached into the vehicle in what she believed was an attempt to grab a weapon. It was that move, and his repeated failure to heed her commands, that led Shelby, 42, to use lethal force.
