Teenager Arrested in Wisconsin Mall Shooting That Injured Eight

Authorities said on Sunday that a 15-year-old boy has been arrested in a shooting that left eight people injured at a Wisconsin mall. Wauwatosa Police Chief Barry Weber said in a news conference that the teenager was arrested Saturday night with a gun allegedly used in the shooting. Weber did not identify the teen. A spokeswoman for the police department also said that several other people were arrested in connection with the shooting, but did not provide details.

Authorities said the shooting followed an altercation between two groups at the Mayfair Mall in Wauwatosa, outside Milwaukee, on Friday afternoon. Among the wounded was a teenager, but authorities said they could not confirm if it was the suspected shooter.

Police say the shooter fled the mall as tactical teams cleared the space of patrons and worked to contain its 1.2 million square feet, a process that took several hours.

Two people were killed and two were injured after a shooting at a Bellevue, Nebraska, Sonic Drive-In over the weekend. Officers received a call on Saturday evening of a possible bomb inside a truck at the restaurant, police said in a press release. When police responded, they found the four gunshot wound victims, according to a statement released by the City of Bellevue Police Department.

Two victims were pronounced dead at the scene. Two others were taken to University of Nebraska Medical Center for treatment. Their conditions are unknown. The suspect, Roberto Carlos Silva Jr., 23, was arrested and booked at the Sarpy County Jail for two counts of first degree murder and one count of arson, according to a City of Bellevue Police Department press release. Silva was accused of identity theft last Wednesday after ordering food from the Sonic app.  At that time, Silva was arrested on suspicion of identity theft, and three firearms were discovered at the time. It was not immediately clear if those firearms were returned to Silva or if those firearms were the ones used in the shooting on Saturday.

The four victims have not been identified yet, pending family notification. Police said there was no additional information to release at this time. An investigation into the shooting is ongoing, according to officials.

Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow Carted Off Field During Game Against With Knee Injury

tmpd307ff62-de9e-42e0-92d7-02a9172957f1-jpg

Cincinnati Bengals rookie quarterback Joe Burrow left Sunday’s game against Washington after suffering a knee injury. The injury occurred after Burrow appeared to hyperextend his left knee and immediately prompted concerns about a season-ending injury. The Cincinnati Bengals wasted no time and immediately ruled Burrow out for the remainder of the game, with Ryan Finley replacing him. Burrow’s season seems to be over, after he tweeted: “Thanks for all the love. Can’t get rid of me that easy. See ya next year.”

Washington rallied past the Bengals 20-9 Sunday to keep his team in the NFC East race. Washington (3-7) moved a half-game back of Philadelphia for first place in the division. Washington rookie running back Antonio Gibson ran for 94 yards and a TD.

tmp176f1a3d-63ce-4818-b54f-045c8c66626a-jpg

Rush’s Neil Peart was one of the best drummers in music history with a legendary drum setup. One of Peart’s early era drum kits has hit the auction block with the bidding expecting to reach somewhere between $80,000-$120,000.

This specific kit being auctioned is a chrome Slingerland drum kit that Peart used while touring between 1974-1977. It’s includes two 22″ bass drums with chrome wrap including the original head, blue resonant heads each with the large silver Rush logo and “Neil” painted on one with “Peart” on the other. There’s also two 13″ Tom Toms with chrome wrap and a 14″ Tom Tom with chrome wrap and with the original head signed by Peart. Each of these three Toms come with a Set-O-Matic mount. The kit also has a 16″ Floor Tom with chrome wrap, and a set of four concert Toms with copper wrap in 6″, 8″, 10″ and 12″. All of these come with three-play shells of maple, poplar and mahogany.

Peart purchased the kit in late July / early August of 1974 and it was placed into storage in 1977, later donated by Peart for a Modern Drummer giveaway in 1987. The set was awarded to drummer Mark Feldman, who eventually sold the kit to the present owner.
