Police: Suspect shot and killed by a security guard after a shooting at a church in Michigan

WAYNE, Mich. (AP) — A gunman opened fire during a service at a suburban Detroit church on Sunday, wounding at least one person before a security guard killed him, police said. The incident happened at Crosspointe Community Church in Wayne, a city of about 17,000 people outside Detroit around 11 a.m., the church's pastor, Bobby Kelly Jr., told the Detroit News. Police said one person was shot in the leg. Kelly said a church member ran the shooter over with his truck, giving the security guard time to shoot him. The person who was shot in the leg was the security guard, the pastor told the newspaper. No one else was hurt, he said. About 150 people were attending the service, Kelly said.

Fisherman who vanished harvesting clams found dead weeks later, Maine officials say

The body of a fisherman who went missing in Maine has been found, according to officials. Alton Wallace, 51, of Milbridge was harvesting clams May 18 and never returned, according to a June 21 news release from the Maine Department of Marine Resources. 'Alton was an avid fisherman and was out fishing alone (May 18) when he wasn't heard from, and his small boat was found washed ashore,' a Facebook post from 2A TAC Air OPS Drone Services said. 'Based on information from the family, it is believed that he likely had a medical issue and fell into the water.' Wallace was reported missing and searches involving the U.S. Coast Guard, the Maine Warden Service, the Maine Forest Service, the Underwater Recovery Team, local fishermen and community members were conducted to try to find him, the Department of Marine Resources said. 'These days are living nightmares, simple please bring us closure in having him back,' Sheila Wallace, a family member, said in a Facebook post. The Marine Patrol searched for Alton Wallace by plane near where responders determined his last cell phone ping occurred, Marine Resources said. Around 11 a.m. June 21, a fisherman found Wallace's body, and Marine Patrol officers recovered it from the western shore of Foster Island in Narraguagus Bay, officials said. 'Alton Wallace is the kind of person who would do anything for anyone—always the first to lend a hand and always showing up for those in need,' Ali Wallace said in a Facebook post announcing the Alton Wallace Scholarship. His body was taken to the medical examiner's office for an autopsy.

Israel says the remains of 3 hostages have been recovered from Gaza

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — The Israeli military says it has recovered the remains of three hostages held in the Gaza Strip. It identified them as Yonatan Samerano, 21; Ofra Keidar, 70; and Shay Levinson, 19. All three were killed during Hamas' Oct. 7, 2023, attack into Israel that ignited the ongoing war. The militant group is still holding 50 hostages, less than half of them believed to be alive. Kobi Samerano said in a Facebook post that his son's remains were returned on what would have been Yonatan's 23rd birthday. 'The campaign to return the hostages continues consistently and is happening alongside the campaign against Iran,' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement. Hamas-led militants killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducted 251 people in the Oct. 7 attack. More than half the hostages have been returned in ceasefire agreements or other deals, eight have been rescued alive and Israeli forces have recovered dozens of bodies. Israel's retaliatory offensive has killed over 55,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza's Health Ministry, which has said that women and children make up more than half of the dead. It does not distinguish between civilians and combatants. ___ Follow AP's war coverage at
