Colorado officials released video Monday showing the moment a man who was fatally shot by police opened his truck door and pointed a handgun at deputies during an August traffic stop.

The Douglas County Sheriff's Office said the incident happened Aug. 31, when a vehicle was pulled over on Highway 85 in Sedalia, located about 20 miles south of Denver.

Deputies were reportedly trying to figure out if a passenger had a restraining order against the driver of the vehicle. But the passenger, 61-year-old Paul Askins, was uncooperative, didn't provide his legal name or date of birth, and when asked to step out of the vehicle, pointed a pistol at deputies.

"This is how he engaged us," Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock said at a news conference.

In the video, one of the officers can be seen quickly backing away while opening fire, then tumbling down an embankment.

All three officers shot Askins multiple times, fatally wounding him, according to Spurlock.
CALIFORNIA DEPUTY KILLED, ANOTHER WOUNDED AFTER SHOOTOUT WITH SUSPECT
At the time of the shooting, Askins had two active warrants out of El Paso County, Colorado -- one for 2nd degree burglary of a building and the other for Failure to Appear, according to the sheriff's office.

None of the deputies or other passengers in the vehicle were injured in the incident, FOX31 reported.

The sheriff's office did not release the names of the deputies, citing the ongoing investigation, but said one deputy has served with Douglas County for two years, another for eight years and the third for 16 years.

Nigeria has declared a 'national disaster' following severe floods that have left at least 100 people dead in several states across the country, officials say.

Nigeria has declared a 'national disaster' following severe floods that have left at least 100 people dead in several states across the country, officials say.

Thousands of people have been displaced following weeks of heavy rainfall in some central and southern states, the country's emergency response agency, NEMA said Tuesday.

Nigeria's two major rivers have burst their banks sweeping away homes in the central part of the country.

The agency warned the situation could worsen as water levels continue to rise in Lokoja capital of Kogi State, which lies at the confluence of the Niger and Benue rivers and is often one of the most affected states during the rainy season.

Five emergency operation centers have been created to coordinate search and rescue operations, while also providing humanitarian support for those displaced by the floods, Sani Datti, a spokesman for NEMA said.

President Muhammadu Buhari has approved $8.2 million "for the procurement of medical and relief materials" to help flooding victims, he said.

I have approved 3 billion Naira for the procurement of medical and relief materials to meet the needs of victims of the flooding. NEMA is also providing me with regular updates on the situation.
- Muhammadu Buhari (@MBuhari) September 16, 2018

Nigeria's rainy season usually lasts from July to September, and the country suffers from flooding almost annually.

However, climate change and poor town and housing planning have worsened the situation this year, Datti told CNN.

NEMA has advised residents in flood-prone areas to evacuate their homes.

"On behalf of the President & Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, @MBuhari, I, Engr. Mustapha Maihaja, Director-General of @nemanigeria, hereby declare National Disaster in the following States:
- Kogi
- Niger
- Anambra
- Delta."

Collin Daniel Richards has been charged with the murder of a State University champion golfer that turned up dead in the pond of an Iowa golf course. Celia Barquin's body had many stab wounds on the upper torso and the knife was later recovered in Richard's house.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A man with a criminal background was charged with murder just hours after a former Iowa State University champion golfer turned up dead in a pond on a golf course.

Collin Daniel Richards, 22, who police said has no known address and, according to court records, was kicked out of his grandparents' house a year ago, was charged with first-degree murder in Celia Barquin Arozamena's stabbing death Monday.

Police found her body at Coldwater Links public golf course near Iowa State University in Ames, where she apparently went golfing alone Monday morning.

Richards purportedly made statements to an acquaintance recently "to the effect of having an urge to rape and kill a woman," according to a criminal complaint made public Tuesday.

Celia Barquin Arozamena, 22, was found dead on a golf course in Ames, Iowa, on Monday, Sept. 17, 2018. A man has been arrested and charged with the murder of the burgeoning golf star.

Iowa State Department of Athletics

Story County Attorney Jessica Reynolds described the killing as "a random act of violence" during a brief court hearing for Richards Tuesday morning.

"The state believes him to be a flight risk, also believes him to be a danger to the community," Reynolds said during the hearing.

The judge granted her request to set bail at $5 million.

It's rare, obviously. It's still very troubling that something like this would happen in broad daylight in a community that is as safe as Ames is.

Richards appeared in court in shackles and made no statements. He was ordered to return to court Sept. 28 for a preliminary hearing.

Attorney Paul Rounds of the Story County Public Defender's Office was appointed to represent Richards.

"I hope people reserve judgment until after the trial," Rounds told ABC News when reached by phone, declining to comment further.

The slaying sent shockwaves from the nation's heartland to Barquin Arozamena's hometown of Reocín, Spain, where civic leaders joined residents in a moment of silence at noon on Tuesday. The Reocín City Council also declared three days of mourning for the young woman and released a statement condemning the "vile act" that took her life.

"She was a really hard-working girl who was deeply loved by the whole town," Reocín Mayor Pablo Diestro told the Spanish sports website Marca.com. "It's a tragedy. We can't believe it."

Cmdr. Geoff Huff, head of the Ames Police Department's criminal investigations division, said at a news conference Tuesday, "It's rare, obviously. It's still very troubling that something like this would happen in broad daylight in a community that is as safe as Ames is."

He added: "It's an awful thing that's happened. I'm not sure what else I can say."

Barquin Arozamena, a native of Spain, was recently named Iowa State's female athlete of the year.

She had turned pro this past spring after completing her college golfing career. Earlier this year, she qualified for the U.S. Women's Open in Alabama, one of the LPGA Tour's majors.

The Ames Police Department opened a suspicious death investigation Monday morning when golfers found Barquin Arozamena's cellphone, ball cap and golf bag on the ninth hole fairway of the golf course "with no one around it," according to a police statement.

Golfers had seen Barquin Arozamena on the golf course earlier but told police she had disappeared, prompting a search for her, officials said.

Officers were called to the golf course about 10:24 a.m. and found the woman's body a half-hour later in a pond near where her golf bag was discovered and determined she had been assaulted, according to the criminal complaint.

The body of Iowa State golfer Celia Barquin Arozamena, 22, was found at Coldwater Golf Links on Monday, Sept. 17, 2018.

"Based on the scene investigation, the victim sustained several stab wounds to the upper torso, head, and neck," the criminal complaint stated.

Police searched the golf course and stopped a man walking on a trail leading into a wooded area who identified himself as an acquaintance of Richards.

A K-9 unit tracked the victim's scent to a homeless encampment on the banks of Squaw Creek in the wooded area adjacent to the golf course, according to the criminal complaint.

Police were searching the camp, which consisted of two tents, when Richards approached them.

"Officers observed that ... [Richards] had several fresh scratches on his face consistent with fighting, and also noted [he] attempted to conceal a deep laceration to his left hand, which he attempted to bury in the ground," the criminal complaint reads.

Police also contacted an acquaintance of Richards who told them the suspect showed up at his residence near the golf course Monday afternoon and that he "appeared disheveled and covered in blood, sand and water," according to the complaint.

The man told police Richards left his house after bathing and washing his clothes, the complaint stated.

Two other witnesses told police that Richards asked them for a ride to Jefferson, Iowa, and had given them a knife, according to the complaint. While driving to Jefferson, Richards told the men he needed to return to the homeless encampment because he forgot his tent, according to the complaint.

When they arrived at the golf course, they noticed police swarming the area, the complaint reads. Richards got out of their vehicle and approached police officers searching the tent encampment, the complaint states.

Police said they recovered a knife that Richards allegedly gave to two witnesses, according to the complaint. Police also found two pairs of blood-stained shorts in Richards' backpack.

Several law enforcement agencies, including the Iowa State University Police Department, assisted in the investigation.

"I don't know a lot of the details yet but it's just a horrific, horrific senseless death," Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds told reporters Tuesday at the Iowa Capitol in Des Moines.

Reynolds' statement was echoed by Iowa State University President Wendy Wintersteen.

"We were deeply saddened to learn yesterday of the death of Celia Barquin Arozamena. Celia was a dedicated student in civil engineering. She was a talented student athlete and an acclaimed golfer with a bright future," Wintersteen said in a statement Monday. "Celia was a champion and a proud ambassador for Iowa State. Our hearts are with Celia's family and friends as we grieve her passing. It's a terrible, tragic and senseless loss.

"In these moments, we recognize our own mortality and realize that each day is a gift," Wintersteen said. "I hope everyone will take time today to meet with their friends and loved ones, value those connections and feel thankful that they can do so. A bright candle in our Cyclone Nation no longer shines, and our community and the world are less for it."

Barquin Arozamena claimed the 2018 Big 12 Championship with a three-shot victory in April, according to the university, which called her one of the most accomplished golfers in the school's history. She was finishing her civil engineering degree this semester.

The death of Barquin Arozamena prompted the Iowa State women's golf team to withdraw from competition at the East and West Match Play tournament in Ann Arbor, Michigan, to return to Iowa to mourn the former teammate, the team said in a tweet.

Collin Daniel Richards, 22, was charged with first-degree murder in the death of a 22-year-old Iowa State University student on Monday.

The team was scheduled Tuesday to play for the tournament title.

"We are all devastated," Christie Martens, Iowa State head women's golf coach, said in a statement. "Celia was a beautiful person who was loved by all her teammates and friends. She loved Iowa State and was an outstanding representative for our school. We will never forget her competitive drive to be the best and her passion for life."

Iowa State Director of Athletics Jamie Pollard added: "Celia had an infectious smile, a bubbly personality and anyone fortunate enough to know her was blessed. Our Cyclone family mourns the tragic loss of Celia, a spectacular student-athlete and ISU ambassador."

Barquin Arozamena qualified for the U.S. Women's Open golf tournament in Shoal Creek, Alabama, in May but did not make the cut after the first two rounds.

The university's Athletics Department said it plans to honor her memory at a football game Saturday at the school's Jack Trice Stadium, which is across the street from where police found her body.

Funeral arrangements are pending.

"I'm just kind of surprised," ISU freshman Isaac Sachse told ABC affiliate station WOI-TV in Des Moines.

"First it was the kidnapping and now this. It's kind of horrifying," he added, referring to the death of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts, who was allegedly killed by 24-year-old Cristhian Rivera while on her routine jog through farm country earlier this summer.

Richards has a criminal record, according to court documents. He has pleaded guilty to charges of domestic abuse, assault, theft and public intoxication in the past, the records show.

In September 2017, he was arrested on suspicion of breaking into his grandparents' house, according to court records. Richards told police he had broken into the house to retrieve his belongings after his grandparents had kicked him out, records show.

Richards' most recent arrest occurred in July when he was taken into custody on suspicion of public intoxication after police found him passed out at a convenience store in Ames, according to records.

Woolly Mammoths will roam new Jurassic Park-style theme park with cave lions and extinct horses in ten years, Russian scientist say that they have the tools and ability to bring back extinct woolly mammoths. Woolly mammoths are a elephant like creacher that had a lot of hair compared to the  elephant

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Long extinct cave lions may be about to rise from their icy graves and prowl once more alongside woolly mammoths and ancient horses in a real-life Jurassic Park.

In less than 10 years, it is hoped the fearsome big cats will be released from an underground lab as part of a remarkable plan to populate a remote spot in Russia with Ice Age animals cloned from preserved DNA.

Experiments are already underway to create the lions and also extinct ancient horses found in Yakutia, Siberia, seen as a prelude to restoring the mammoth.

Regional leader Aisen Nikolaev forecast that cooperation between Russian, South Korean and Japanese scientists will see the "miracle" return of woolly mammoths inside 10 years.

He said: "The prospect was no longer fantastical.

"Today, technology is developing at an explosive pace, and what yesterday seemed to be scientific nonsense, today is an absolutely clear prospect for scientists."

Mr. Nikolaev claimed the remarkable return of the extinct beasts will be possible because of DNA material of the giants found in the permafrost in Yakutia, also called Sakha Republic.

He said: "We are actively working with South Korea.

"Thanks to cooperation with Korean and Japanese scientists, in my opinion, this [cloning a mammoth] will happen in the next decade."

In 2014 he first proposed "an Ice Age Park with mammoths" to act as home for them to roam, he said.

Further details of the incredible plans for the new "world class paleo-genetic scientific center" will be unveiled next month when Vladimir Putin hosts a major investment forum.

The cloning laboratories - some sunk deep in the permafrost soil -aim to extend research by Russian scientists who are already working closely with South Korean specialists hoping to restore extinct species.

Yakutsk is capital of diamond-rich Sakha Republic, also known as Yakutia, where 80 percent of finds of samples of Pleistocene and Holocene animals with preserved soft tissues have been made.

The scheme of the new center will be unveiled at the 4th Eastern Economic Forum hosted by Putin opening on Sept. 11 in Vladivostok.

It will "aim to study extinct animals from living cells - and to restore such creatures as the woolly mammoth, woolly rhinoceros, cave lion and breeds of long-gone horses", reported The Siberian Times.

The cloning scientists are already using DNA from the ancient animals has been preserved in remains encased in frozen soil - or permafrost - for tens of thousands of years.

The center will be based at Russia's Northern-Eastern Federal University (NEFU) which is seeking further investment for the extraordinary project.

Expert Dr. Lena Grigorieva - who drafted plans for the center -said: "There is no such unique material anywhere else in the world."

But scientists would also explore ways of helping fight human diseases, she said.

"We study not only Pleistocene animals - another line is the study of the history of settlement of the North-East of Russia," she said.

"Northern ethnic groups have a unique ancient genetic structure.

"Such studies will help in the study of rare genetic diseases, their diagnosis, prevention."

The university has an existing close cooperation with South Korean SOOAM Biotech Research Foundation, led by cloning expert Professor Hwang Woo-Suk.

There are also links between Russian scientists and trailblazing Harvard University geneticist Professor George Church who plans to inset woolly mammoth genes into an Asian elephant embryo by 2020.

Prof. Church has revealed to Sun Online how a cloning project was on the verge of being able to grow a baby mammoth in a lab.

His team of leading Harvard scientists have been using DNA recovered from a woolly mammoth found perfectly preserved in ice in Siberia after dying 42,000 years ago.

By merging genes from the mammals with that of elephants their species may be resurrected.

The team is set to publish in the coming weeks scientific papers laying out in detail their revolutionary technique in creating and implanting mammalian embryos.

Speaking to exclusively to Sun Online, Prof. Church said: "We have already revived dozens of genes and are testing them in elephant cells.

"We are focusing on a reviving mammoth genes and making a mammoth/elephant hybrid and help them spread to vast wild, arctic climates."

Using a genetic engineering technique called CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing, his team of scientists can "cut and paste" strands of DNA into elephant stem cells with a precision not seen before, paving the way for a woolly mammoth embryo.

Prof. Church said he wants to then grow a hybrid woolly mammoth/elephant hybrid within an artificial womb rather than using a female elephant as a surrogate mum.

It is estimated this will take at least 22 months.

The professor believes this will allow woolly mammoths herds to begin once more plodding about the arctic and while doing so save the world.

Along with other measures, it's hoped the woolly mammoths will create an environment which could stop Siberia's permafrost melting and then releasing billions of tons of greenhouse gases.

The doomsday scenario has been dubbed as the "methane bomb" because if it happened it would dramatically worsen climate change, melting the ice cap and flooding countries across the world.

And there is clear evidence that this is already happening.

Bubble like mounds have been popping up like a geological plague and some have already burst and spewed out toxic gas which damages the atmosphere.

But the worst of this ticking time bomb has yet to happen.

Much of the methane is still trapped underneath by the permafrost layer which is fast disappearing and threatens to release the gas at any moment.

An area where this is starting to happen is the Yamal Peninsula.

Shocking aerial footage has revealed thousands of methane-filled craters - which threatens to happen across Russia's frozen far north.

Ironically, melting ice here revealed preserved woolly mammoths that are now being used in the cloning attempts.

And if the huge furry mammoths/elephant hybrids were to be brought into being, Prof. Church said they could repopulate these freezing wastelands and help lock in the lethal fumes.

He said: "Cold-resistant elephants would flatten the insulating snow and supporting trees in winter and favor the highly heat reflective grass in summer.

"They would also help capture new carbon by enhancing the photosynthetic capacity of the vegetation."

Should Prof. Church and his Harvard uni team successfully clone woolly mammoths they would be taken to an extraordinary Ice Age safari park currently being developed by Russian scientists.

Called the Pleistocene Park, the 20,000 hectare zone in the furthest stretches of remote Siberia has been created in a bid to recreate an Ice-Age ecosystem.

Experts believe grazing woolly mammoths would also compact the snow in the winter and grass in the summer all of which lowers the permafrost temperature.

Iowa State Director of Athletics Jamie Pollard added: "Celia had an infectious smile, a bubbly personality and anyone fortunate enough to know her was blessed. Our Cyclone family mourns the tragic loss of Celia, a spectacular student-athlete and ISU ambassador."

Barquin Arozamena qualified for the U.S. Women's Open golf tournament in Shoal Creek, Alabama, in May but did not make the cut after the first two rounds.

The university's Athletics Department said it plans to honor her memory at a football game Saturday at the school's Jack Trice Stadium, which is across the street from where police found her body.

Funeral arrangements are pending.

"I'm just kind of surprised," ISU freshman Isaac Sachse told ABC affiliate station WOI-TV in Des Moines.

"First it was the kidnapping and now this. It's kind of horrifying," he added, referring to the death of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts, who was allegedly killed by 24-year-old Cristhian Rivera while on her routine jog through farm country earlier this summer.

Richards has a criminal record, according to court documents. He has pleaded guilty to charges of domestic abuse, assault, theft and public intoxication in the past, the records show.

In September 2017, he was arrested on suspicion of breaking into his grandparents' house, according to court records. Richards told police he had broken into the house to retrieve his belongings after his grandparents had kicked him out, records show.

Richards' most recent arrest occurred in July when he was taken into custody on suspicion of public intoxication after police found him passed out at a convenience store in Ames, according to records.

A Georgia woman was arrested for selling marijuana at a church event. They also sold other objects that were marijuana infused like pudding, brownies and cereal treats.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Two Georgia women were arrested last week after officials found one of them selling marijuana edibles at a local church event, the Chatham-Savannah Counter Narcotics Team said in a Monday statement.

On Friday, a local church was hosting an event for entrepreneurs, with vendors selling various items from booths. One of those vendors was Ebony Cooper, 28, of Savannah, who "was openly selling the edibles in addition to other items," the CNT said, noting the items included marijuana-infused "cereal treats, brownies, and puddings."

"Agents made a purchase of several edibles and maintained surveillance of Cooper," the statement continued. At that point, CNT agents followed Cooper and another woman, 26-year-old Leah Pressley, also of Savannah, to an "off-site location" before approaching the two women.

Officials then searched Pressley's car, where they found "a large amount of edibles and more than $1,000 in cash," the CNT said, adding a firearm, "which agents believed Cooper had in her possession while selling the items on church property," was also seized.

Cooper and Pressley were booked on felony drug charges and taken to the Chatham County Detention Center. Agents "do not believe Pressley participated in the edible sales that occurred on the church property."

In addition to allegedly selling the edibles at the event, CNT officials said Cooper was "actively advertising her edibles on various social media sites."

Officials said the event was hosted by an outside vendor and "the church was unaware of any illegal activities occurring on its property."
