A woman is dead and seven people injured after a gunman opened fire at a birthday pool party at a San Diego apartment complex Sunday, police said.

The alleged gunman, identified as Peter Selis, 49, was shot and killed by police, San Diego police said.

Numerous calls were made to 911 around 6 p.m. local time to report the shooting at the gated pool area of the La Jolla Crossroads apartment complex, police said.

Selis, who was allegedly armed with a high-caliber handgun, lived in the apartment complex, police said.

Police said eight victims, all adults, were hospitalized and one later died.

It is not clear if the suspect knew the victims, police said.

Authorities do not know the motive and are interviewing witnesses, police said.

Parts of the Midwest and the South were recovering Monday after a weekend round of storms, winds, hail and isolated tornadoes killed at least 14 people.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Parts of the Midwest and the South were recovering Monday after a weekend round of storms, winds, hail and isolated tornadoes killed at least 14 people.

And a chance remained for more severe weather in the South. Parts of the Florida Panhandle, Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi could be affected by severe thunderstorms, according to the National Weather Service.

Tornadoes hit several small towns in East Texas, killing four people. Flooding and winds killed five people in Arkansas, including a fire chief who was struck by a vehicle while working during the storm.

Two deaths were reported in Missouri, including a woman who drowned after rushing water swept away a car. One of two deaths in Mississippi included a 7-year-old who died by electric shock and a 2-year-old girl died in Tennessee after being struck by a soccer goal post thrown by heavy winds.

The storms rolled through Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama on Sunday with strong winds causing isolated pockets of damage.

In Durant in central Mississippi, one person died in the storms. The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency didn't give details. Later Sunday the agency reported the death of a child from Rankin County, 20 miles (32 kilometers) east of Jackson, who died from electric shock in flood waters. The Rankin County Sherriff's Department reported that a 7-year-old boy had unplugged an electric golf cart and dropped the cord in water on the ground and was shocked.

Alexa Haik went to bed Saturday night expecting just rain, but heard the sirens Sunday morning and turned on the television to see the tornado warning. She rounded up her pets and hid in a hallway with her family, then was stunned to emerge to trees down in her neighborhood in Clinton, Mississippi, about 20 miles (32 kilometers) west of Jackson.

A trip up the road showed how isolated the worst of the storms were.

"I really thought when we got out of our neighborhood, there would be damage everywhere. But our little subdivision was the only one hit," Haik said.

A 2-year-old girl in Tennessee died after being struck by a heavy, metal soccer goal post that was blown over by high winds, The Metro Nashville Police Department posted on its Twitter page Sunday evening. Melanie Espinoza Rodriguez was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead, according to a second post from the department.

Middle Tennessee was hit by a strong line of storms that knocked down trees and power lines earlier Sunday.

Rescuers in northwest Arkansas continued Sunday to look for an 18-month-old girl and a 4-year-old boy who were in a vehicle swept off a bridge by floodwaters in Hindsville, the Madison County Sheriff's Office said.

In northwest Arkansas, a 10-year-old girl drowned in Springdale and the body of a woman who disappeared riding an inner tube Saturday was found in a creek in Eureka Springs. Also, a 65-year-old woman in DeWitt in the eastern part of the state was struck and killed in her home by a falling tree, officials said.

An Arkansas volunteer fire department chief was killed while working during storms in north-central Arkansas, state police said.

Cove Creek/Pearson Fire Chief Doug Decker died shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday after being struck by a vehicle while checking water levels on Highway 25 near Quitman, about 40 miles (64 kilometers) north of Little Rock, Trooper Liz Chapman said. It wasn't known if he will be included as a storm-related death, she said.

Flooding closed part of Interstate 44 near Hazelgreen, Missouri, and officials expected it would be at least a day before the highway reopened. Interstate 70 in western Kansas was closed because crews were waiting for snow falling at 3 to 4 inches (8 to 10 centimeters) an hour being blown by 35 mph (56 kph) winds to subside.

Near Clever in southwestern Missouri, a man tried to save his 72-year-old wife from floodwaters that swept away their vehicle Saturday, but her body was found when the water receded, the Missouri State Highway Patrol said.

A second death from weekend flooding was announced Sunday by Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens but he did not release any details about the victim or the circumstances of the death.

In Texas, search teams were going door to door Sunday after the tornadoes the day before flattened homes, uprooted trees and flipped several pickup trucks at a Dodge dealership in Canton.

"It is heartbreaking and upsetting to say the least," Canton Mayor Lou Ann Everett told reporters at a news conference Sunday morning.

The storms cut a path of destruction 35 miles (56 kilometers) long and 15 miles (24 kilometers) wide in Van Zandt County, Everett said. The largely rural area is about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east of Dallas.

The National Weather Service found evidence of four tornadoes with one twister possibly on the ground for 50 miles (80 kilometers).

The first reports of tornadoes came about 4:45 p.m. Saturday, but emergency crews were hampered by continuing severe weather, said Judge Don Kirkpatrick, the chief executive for Van Zandt County.

"We'd be out there working and get a report of another tornado on the ground," he said.

BOSTON - Celtics guard Isaiah Thomas lost a front tooth during Sunday's Game 1 victory over the Washington Wizards and the team's initial efforts to reinsert it were unsuccessful.

That didn't stop Thomas from scoring a game-high 33 points on 11-of-23 shooting over 38 minutes while helping the Celtics rally from a 17-point deficit for a 123-111 triumph at TD Garden.

Thomas plans to have the tooth professionally reinserted moving forward after it came back out after the team repositioned it in the first half.

"It just bothers me to talk. My tongue goes right through my tooth," a lispy Thomas said at his postgame news conference. "I've never had dental problems so this is new. I've always had teammates that I've always clowned them about the tooth being out and now I'm one of them. So hopefully we can replace it as soon as possible."

Midway through the first quarter, Thomas was chasing Otto Porter Jr. as he received a pass while curling at the top of the key. Thomas swiped at the ball and his mouth hit Porter's elbow, ejecting one of his top front teeth.

During the next stoppage, Thomas retrieved the tooth near the 3-point line and delivered it to team trainer Ed Lacerte. Team doctors attempted to reinsert the tooth when Thomas checked out later in the first quarter but Thomas said it eventually fell out.

Thomas said he hoped to have a dentist reattach the tooth as soon as possible. Teammates told Thomas he should keep the toothless look for the playoffs.

"He looks a little tougher. I like it," joked Celtics guard Avery Bradley. "I was making jokes during the game on the bench and I got him laughing, it was funny. There's a guy from Seattle named Rodney Stuckey and he plays with a missing tooth and I told Isaiah he should go with that look for the rest of the playoffs. He laughed and said, 'No, I'm getting it fixed tonight.' He played well and definitely got our team going tonight."

Thomas didn't seem overly fazed when the tooth fell out. The Celtics were down 22-5 after Porter made the jumper that Thomas was trying to defend. Thomas responded with a pair of 3-pointers to help ignite Boston's rally.

On the bench during a timeout, cameras caught Thomas, blood around his lips, smiling as team doctors examined the gap in his mouth.

"I wanted him to smile a little bit more. I don't think he cracked a smile," said Jae Crowder. "But it showed a little bit about what he's about. Because he's just going to keep playing no matter what. He's a fighter, man. I'm sure he'll get it fixed, but I just wanted him to smile just to show it off a little bit."

The tooth brought a bit of levity for Thomas, who had flown to Tacoma, Washington after Boston's Game 6 win over the Chicago Bulls on Friday to attend his sister's funeral on Saturday.

Thomas didn't land back in Boston until 4 a.m. on Sunday morning and was at the arena six hours later to go through the team's pregame walkthrough.

Celtics coach Brad Stevens marveled at what Thomas has been able to accomplish while grieving the loss of his sister but had some fun with the lost tooth.

"He and my 7-year-old daughter [Kinsley] just gave each other the open-tooth smile," deadpanned Stevens. "And he just - he made both 3s right after it fell out. So maybe that tooth was holding him back a little. No, I feel bad for him because he's going to have to have some pretty significant dental work."

Added Stevens: "I think that obviously [losing a tooth] hurts and that's not fun, but in comparison to what he's gone through - even he was laughing and pseudo-smiling about it there for a while. But I think that what he's been able to do is, I think I've used the word 'unfathomable,' and I'd stick with that. I can't imagine being able to do it myself, if I were in the same situation. He's incredible."

Where does he find the time?

Back in December, WonderBoy Elon Musk - the man behind business ventures like Tesla, Space X, and Neuralink - announced on Twitter that he was tired of traffic and that he was going to start digging tunnels. He later said that he would call it "The Boring Company." Well, as it turns out, it looks like he wasn't kidding. A Space X employee posted the image you see above to Instagram a few days ago that shows a new tunnel boring machine sporting Elon's "The Boring Company" logo on the side. The post has since been removed, but not before we, and the rest of the internet got our hands on it.

It was just a couple of months ago that Bloomberg reported Musk's building of a demo tunnel in the SpaceX parking lot, and that it would serve as the basis for his underground network. But, that's just the start, as plan includes as many as "30 levels of tunnels" that could be used by cars or even Hyperloop, should that project continue to go according to plan. Musk has already claimed the rights to "BoringCompany.com," but if he really wants to see his plan go beyond the SpaceX parking lot, he'll have to comply with rules set forth by Los Angeles, the State of California, and all federal regulations. Needless to say, when you take permits, surveys, equipment, and manpower into consideration, it's going to be one expensive project. Will it actually happen? Only time will tell, but he's obviously well on his way.

Where Does He Find the Time?

To be quite honest, I've spent some time driving in rush hour traffic, and if Musk can build a network of tunnels that saves me the frustration and prevents me from going absolutely apeshit with road rage, then I'm all for it. Give that man his permits and survey crews to make it happen. With that said, I'm honestly wondering where Musk finds the time to juggle all of these companies and ventures. He's got Tesla, Hyperloop, SpaceX, Neuralink, and the Gigafactory.

Remember that Roswell incident in 1947? Well, the government coverup says it was just a weather balloon that crashed, but I'm starting to think it really was aliens, and that Musk was on board. It explains how his batteries are so good and how he believes he can easily link computers and brains together, among other things. Okay, so he's probably not an alien, but seriously, does the man ever sleep?

tRump continues to try and get rid of Obamacare

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
But as hard as it is, leaders know they can't simply abandon their effort now.

"I hope we keep going. I don't think we can stop," said Rep. Brett Guthrie, a Republican who serves on the House's Energy and Commerce Committee told CNN last week.

Trump said Sunday the White House is pushing forward, and that the GOP plan "guarantees" coverage for Americans with pre-existing conditions.

"Pre-existing conditions are in the bill. And I mandate it. I said, 'Has to be,'" Trump said on CBS's "Face the Nation" Sunday.

Pressed further, Trump said that "we actually have a clause that guarantees" coverage for those with pre-existing conditions. Trump also said the health care legislation is "changing."

Unlike the mandate under Obamacare, however, under the GOP bill insurers could charge them higher rates than others in the plan if they allow their coverage to lapse.

Republicans might seem stuck in a never ending cycle of trying to please the moderate and conservative wings of their party but pressure from the White House to deliver a legislative win for Trump is real. Also real: the repeated pledges to their constituents over the past seven years to repeal and replace Obamacare if given the chance.

There is still no official timeline to put the health care repeal and replace bill on the floor, and leadership aides are unequivocal that the bill will move only once leadership knows they have the 216 votes needed. GOP leaders continued to discuss the effort with members over the weekend, but some question what makes this effort different from the previous failed attempts.

"I'm not terribly optimistic right now," Rep. Charlie Dent, R-Pennsylvania, told CNN's New Day. "I think we need to change the paradigm."

Last week Republicans seemed to reach a major breakthrough on health care.

A new amendment sponsored by moderate leader Rep. Tom MacArthur of New Jersey gave states the ability to opt out of more Obamacare regulations. The amendment was also enough to finally bring the conservative House Freedom Caucus on board.

But the amendment, which experts noted could drive up the cost of insurance for older Americans and those with pre-existing conditions, spooked moderates and left some -- who had been supportive of the legislation before -- scrambling to publicly voice their discontentment. All of a sudden, it was moderates in the hot seat.

It seemed that even though leadership may have gained upwards of 30 new votes from the Freedom Caucus, they were suffering significant enough losses from the other side of the party that they still couldn't bring a bill up to the floor for a vote in order to mark Trump's first 100 days in office. A CNN whip count had recorded 16 Republicans as nos. The GOP can only afford to lose 21 depending on attendance.

This week, leadership's focus remains trying to help those moderates get comfortable with the new MacArthur amendment. Leadership aides emphasize that there isn't much room to change the proposal at this point, but many deputy whips are trying to get members to keep the process in perspective.

"You remind them there is a United States Senate, and it will change things. What we send over there isn't going over there on stone tablets," said Rep. Tom Cole, R-Oklahoma.

After last week though many moderates are frustrated with the process. Some say they see their party making the same kind of mistakes Republicans criticized Democrats for making back in 2010.

"We didn't learn anything from their mistakes," said Rep. Mark Amodei, a moderate Republican from Nevada told CNN. "We learned nothing from their mistakes."

As to promises the bill will be changed once it's in the Senate?

"Seriously, you want me to go back and tell the people in my fourth of Nevada 'the Senate will make it better?'" Amodei said. "What the hell?"
