Double atomic bomb survivor dies at 93 in Japan
Tsutomu Yamaguchi, the only person officially recognized as survivor of both Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombings, died at age 93 in Japan from stomach cancer. He endured burns in Hiroshima on Aug 6, 1945, returned to Nagasaki, witnessed the second blast, and later spoke widely against nuclear weapons. He met filmmaker James Cameron last month in hospital.

Investigators say Johnny Lee Wicks, a 66 year old ex convict, carried out a suicide mission at the Lloyd D George U S Courthouse in Las Vegas. He fired on officers after torching his apartment and loading a Mossberg shotgun under his coat. Wicks died near a historic schoolhouse after a police chase and gun battle that left a security guard dead and a deputy wounded.
