American arrested in killing of infant found with dead mother in Rome park
ROME — An American man was arrested Friday afternoon in Greece in the killing of a baby girl whose body was found along with her dead mother last week in a park in central Rome, Italian authorities said.
Italian prosecutors said that there was not enough evidence to charge the man, who was arrested on the Greek island of Skiathos, with killing the mother because the cause of her death had not been determined.

Man charged with murdering Alberta woman who hasn't been seen in nearly six years
WETASKIWIN — A murder charge has been laid in the disappearance of an Alberta woman who was last seen close to six years ago. RCMP say Twyla Evans, who was 39 when she was last seen alive in Wetaskiwin, south of Edmonton, was reported missing in September of 2019. Police say her body has not been recovered despite search efforts they describe as exhaustive. Investigators say in a news release that recent developments led to the arrest of a 49-year-old man, who remains in custody is charged with first-degree murder. Police say in the release that the case was heartbreaking because Evans faced "significant vulnerabilities" in her daily life. They say that since the matter is now before the courts, they will not be releasing further information about the case. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 21, 2025.

Mike Lynch's superyacht set to be brought to town where prosecutors are based
Tech tycoon Mike Lynch's superyacht is set to be taken to the town where Italian prosecutors investigating the sinking are based. Seven people died when the Bayesian sank off Sicily on August 19 including billionaire Mr Lynch, 59, and his daughter Hannah, 18. Salvage crews spent Saturday raising the 56-metre (184ft) yacht above the water using one of Europe's most powerful sea cranes near the fishing town of Porticello. They said that on Sunday the vessel will be taken to Termini Imerese, a town around 20km away, where prosecutors investigating the sinking are based. Italian prosecutors previously said raising and examining the yacht for evidence would provide key information for its investigation into possible charges of manslaughter and negligent shipwreck. The vessel was originally expected to be raised last month but salvage efforts were delayed after a diver died during underwater work on May 9, prompting greater use of remote-controlled equipment. About 70 specialist personnel had been mobilised to Porticello from across Europe to work on the recovery operation, which began last month. Inquest proceedings in the UK are looking at the deaths of Mr Lynch and his daughter, as well as Morgan Stanley International bank chairman Jonathan Bloomer, 70, and his wife, Judy Bloomer, 71, who were all British nationals. Fifteen people, including Mr Lynch's wife, Angela Bacares, were rescued. Mr Lynch and his daughter were said to have lived in the vicinity of London and the Bloomers lived in Sevenoaks, Kent.
