Much of the discussion regarding the 2019 NFL draft has centered around either the quarterbacks (because of course it has) or a ridiculously deep crop of edge-rushers and defensive linemen. A wide receiver class short on elite talent has been relegated to second-class status-many mock drafts don't have a single receiver being taken in the first half of Round 1.

However, what the class of 2019 lacks in can't-miss studs, it makes up for in depth. There are a number of Day 2 prospects at wide receiver who have a good shot at becoming quality starters.

Stanford's J.J. Arcega-Whiteside won't be the first wideout selected on Day 2. But with a tantalizing combination of size, strength, speed and the best high-pointing skills of any receiver in this draft, Arcega-Whiteside could wind up being the best wide receiver selected outside the first round in 2019.

As a matter of fact, the 6'2", 225-pounder may wind up the best wideout from this class, period.

Arcega-Whiteside was a highly productive pass-catcher at Stanford last year, hauling in 63 balls for 1,059 yards. Over his three seasons with the Cardinal, Arcega-Whiteside reeled in 28 touchdowns-including 14 in 2018 alone. Per Pro Football Focus, Arcega-Whiteside's 16.8 yards per catch in 2018 ranked ninth in the draft class. His passer rating when targeted was 135.6-second among the class.

However, despite that impressive production, Arcega-Whiteside is flying somewhat under the radar. He isn't getting the same predraft run as other big-bodied wideouts such as D.K. Metcalf (6'3", 228 lbs) of Ole Miss or Hakeem Butler (6'5", 227 lbs) of Iowa State.

Pop in tape of Arcega-Whiteside, and it doesn't take long to see that if there's one thing he does even better than flying under the radar, it's going up to get the rock in the red zone:

Stanford WR JJ Arcega-Whiteside (@jjarcega_22) Highlights There aren't too many WRs you'll trust more in the redzone. Just throw it up to No. 19 &amp; there's a high percentage chance he'll come down for 6 60 REC 969 Yards 16.1 AVG 14 TD Full Video 🎥: https://t.co/dwcHQF8UB8 https://t.co/vXktBKoSeL

To say that he excels at making catches in traffic is an understatement. The son of professional basketball players, Arcega-Whiteside is a master at using his size and 33¼-inch arms to make contested grabs. Arcega-Whiteside didn't just lead the nation with 19 such receptions in 2018-he had nearly twice as many as the next-closest receiver, per PFF.

As Justin Melo reported for SB Nation, Arcega-Whiteside believes he's as good at running past corners as he is at going over them:
"I know what I'm good at and I try to maximize that to my benefit. I definitely have a unique skill set. My coaches always told me that if you ever want to be good at something, be good at something that you can't teach. Well, I'm really good at running past corners downfield. It's not something that can be coached up. I'm very thankful to put that on tape and to go out there and do it on a regular basis. At the same time, I don't wanna be known for just that. I wanna be known as an all-around complete receiver."
However, despite his robust per-catch average, there's a perception that Arcega-Whiteside isn't especially fast, and that's caused him to be undervalued in the eyes of at least one NFC scout.

"He's going to be a Day 2 (Rounds 2-3) pick, and I think he's an outside receiver," the scout told Lance Zierlein of NFL.com. He's going to run faster than people think, and he's smart enough to learn all the tricks to get open as a pro. I hear people underestimate him all the time. We have some in our own building."

To his credit, Arcega-Whiteside backed up that notion in workouts. After electing not to run at the scouting combine, Arcega-Whiteside peeled off a 4.49-second 40-yard dash at Stanford's pro day. It wasn't the blazing speed that Metcalf showed off in Indy (4.33 seconds), but he wasn't running in mud either-his time was comparable to Butler's 4.48.

Arcega-Whiteside is also one of the more polished route-runners in this year's class-an ability he attributed, at least in part, to learning all the facets of his position. He told Matt Parrino of New York Upstate.com:
"Originally when I first started playing, the coach told me, 'Hey, you want to get on the field, you have to learn every single position.' So I took that to heart and learned every single spot, X, F, Y, Z. I ended up playing slot because our slot receiver went down. That increased my value to the team to be able to run every single spot, and I carried that all the way through my senior year. I definitely intend to do that at the next level, learn every single spot to increase the value I bring."
Arcega-Whiteside's a big, physical, relatively fast receiver who runs good routes and is an absolute terror in traffic. He's also one of the better blockers at his position in the class. And yet he ranks outside the top 10 in the predraft wideout rankings of some draftniks-essentially because he doesn't run a sub-4.4 40, and his short-area quickness isn't great.

The thing is, it doesn't have to be. Arcega-Whiteside might not have great burst off the line or when making cuts. But he more than compensates for both with consistently excellent technique. There's rarely any wasted movement or bad angles.

So far as the concerns about his straight-line speed go, they're overblown. There are ways to get open over the top that don't involve just going full Roadrunner (meep-meep). At the 2014 combine, Mike Evans' official 40 time was 4.53 seconds. A.J. Green ran a 4.50 in 2011.

Those guys appear to have done all right for themselves.

This isn't to say Arcega-Whiteside is a surefire bet to become the high-end No. 1 wide receiver Evans and Green are. But his game features a lot more strengths than weaknesses. Just about every box is checked. The tools are all there for Arcega-Whiteside to become a productive NFL weapon.

I can write with a fair amount of confidence that Arcega-Whiteside will be a better NFL wideout than Metcalf, who will all but certainly be drafted well before him.

Metcalf may be a physical anomaly, but he didn't have 40 catches or 650 yards in a season at Ole Miss. His production hasn't come close to his potential-and it's possible it never will. Arcega-Whiteside, on the other hand, has already demonstrated a willingness and ability to put his physical gifts to their best possible use, whether that's by running crisp routes or his uncanny knack for attacking the ball at the optimal time to make the catch.

The team that burns a Day 2 pick on the Stanford standout is going to get a steal.

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs or pockets in an ovary or on its surface, and while many women develop them at some point, most present little or no discomfort and are harmless, typically disappearing on their own within a few months. But larger ovarian cysts, like the one found in this 16-year-old patient, can cause pelvic pain, fullness or heaviness in the abdomen or bloating, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Risks factors can include hormonal issues, endometriosis, pelvic infection or previous cysts.

There was a large brawl involving 300 teenagers Saturday night at worlds of fun. Several law agnecies from all surrounding counties were there to break it up. No injuries were reported and they were no arrests

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Hundreds of people, mostly teenagers, were involved in a fight that required a massive police response Saturday night at Worlds of Fun.

The Clay County Sheriff's Office issued an assist-the-officer call about a half-hour before the park was scheduled to close, requesting help from any available law-enforcement officers from surrounding departments.

"There was an altercation in the park tonight," Worlds of Fun said in a statement issued early Sunday morning. "The altercation was broken up by local and park authorities and the guests were removed from the park. The safety and security of our guests and employees is at the core of what we do. The authorities responded quickly and handled the situation appropriately."

Dozen of officers from the Pleasant Valley, Liberty, Northtown and Kansas City, Missouri, polce departments responded in force around 9:30 p.m. to help quell a disturbance.

The Clay County Sheriff's Office confirmed Sunday on Twitter that it needed help to "disperse an unruly group of teenagers starting fights," but that there were no injuries reported.

"It was very nerve-racking," said Joshua Harris, a Worlds of Fun employee who witnessed the brawling. "I was really worried about my friends the whole time, trying to see where they were."

Eye witness Madi-Lynn McDaniel was at Worlds of Fun when the fight erupted.

"We were headed to the back of the park and all of a sudden we just head a bunch of screaming and yelling and (there were) flashlights," McDaniel said. "Before you know it, we were just swarmed with hundreds of kids just fighting. ... You shouldn't have to go to Worlds of Fun and worry there's going to be a massive brawl."

Several people were detained as the crowd poured into the parking lot and officers attempted to disperse the crowd. One person was cited for a peace disturbance and released at the scene, but there were no arrests made.

"It's unfortunate that families & children had their evening disrupted by these events," the Clay County Sheriff's Office said on Twitter. "We will continue to work with WOF to ensure the safety of their guests & staff."

After approximately 300 people, mostly teens, were shepherded into the parking lot, the chaos continued. The entire ordeal was frightening for those who witnessed it.

"People were going everywhere," Harris said. "Some people were trying to find their sisters and their brothers, screaming, the park going crazy. Everybody was running places; cops were everywhere. When I got outside, police were everywhere, parents were trying to pick their kids up. It was crazy."

lil dicky mad a song about saving the earth by using a couple celebrities such as Kevin Hear and wiz khalifa  for the  (Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Lil Dicky unveiled the absolutely star-studded, possibly not-safe-for-work animated music video for his charity single "Earth" today - featuring Leonardo DiCaprio as a human and Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Halsey, Bad Bunny, PSY, Zac Brown, Miley Cyrus, Sia, Snoop Dogg and countless other celebrities as animals pitching in to save the earth.

Turns out, Lil Dicky is this generation's Band Aid. "It really kind of started out as, 'I love animals. I'd love to make a song where different artists play the role of different animals,' " he told , adding, "What started as a silly joke of an idea along the way became the most important thing I'll ever do."

Watching it feels like watching Madagascar as recounted by DJ Khaled's Rolodex, or an absurdist rendering of "Do They Know It's Christmas" rewritten in the language of meme rap and meta-commentary. Directed by Tony Yacenda Nigel Tierney and Federico Heller , the video for "Earth" is one of the more enjoyable offerings from the joke-rapper, and its intentions are good (proceeds from the single will go towards the environment-focused Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation). Still: How did this guy manage to land a music video that rivals this year's Coachella lineup?

It was 2013 when a burgeoning ad man named David Burd adopted the Lil Dicky moniker. He first grew notoriety as a DIY joke rapper, inheriting the DNA of The Lonely Island and incorporating frat-rap into the mix. He made songs like "Ex-Boyfriend," a lewd rap about the envy that comes with meeting your partner's more alluring ex. In a (since-deleted) blog post from 2013, he penned his statement of purpose. "Unless you're an extremely stupid person that began life as a poor, violent man, only to see your fortunes turn once you started rapping, you won't be able to relate to 99 percent of today's rap music." He goes on to add: "So I decided that if I wanted to be absurd, I'd have to do it differently. I'd have to do it in ways that I could relate to. That's my right."

He transformed that theory into a handful of viral hits, spinning his shtick as a white rapper into bits that resonated with the masses. His breakthrough arrived with "$ave Dat Money," a song from 2015 that preached fiscal responsibility, subverting the tropes of rap extravagance. It featured (at-the-time) buzzing rappers Rich Homie Quan and Fetty Wap, and went on to chart at No. 71. The following year he joined the likes of Anderson .Paak, 21 Savage and Lil Uzi Vert in the 2016 XXL Freshman Class, a hotly-anticipated roll-call of buzzed-about rappers.

Following that came his biggest hit to date, "Freaky Friday." Produced by hitmakers DJ Mustard and Benny Blanco, its essential premise is simple: a Joe Schmo white guy swaps bodies with Chris Brown - a la the Lindsay Lohan film from 2003. Dicky (voiced by Brown) goes on to say the n-word recklessly. (This part resulted in a scandal involving the women's lacrosse team from Virginia Tech.) Chris Brown gets to live life unhindered by his history. Both despite and because of its association with Brown, the song netted Lil Dicky his first Top 10 song. At this point, he's become a legitimate star, signed by superstar handler Scooter Braun, who manages Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, in 2016 (soon after his XXL feature).

So, when Lil Dicky announced on Wednesday that a collaboration titled "Earth" was impending, and that it would feature a bill stacked with stars, it stoked speculation as to what that could possibly result in. Now we know.

Checkered context and all, a jokester using his newfound network to make an anthem about climate change certainly isn't the worst thing he could have done. And, for what it's worth, there's no Chris Brown this time around.

Officials say a Kansas zookeeper who was attacked by a Sumatran tiger is out of intensive care.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that city officials announced Monday that the Topeka Zoo employee's condition has improved. Her name hasn't been released.

The 7-year-old male tiger, named Sanjiv, attacked the woman Saturday morning in his outdoor habitat as several visitors watched. The tiger was lured away so the injured zookeeper could receive emergency aid.

Zoo director Brendan Wiley has said the zoo is conducting an investigation and will determine what protocol changes might be needed after talking to the injured worker. She has worked at the zoo since 2002 and has several years of experience with tigers.

The zoo has no plans to euthanize Sanjiv, who was back on display Sunday.

The Denver Nuggets pulled away from the San Antonio Spurs for a 117-103 Game 4 win on Saturday evening in San Antonio, Texas.

Though the series is now even at 2-2, Spurs guard DeMar DeRozan was not even-tempered when he decided to chuck the basketball at referee Scott Foster with five minutes remaining in regulation. DeRozan was promptly ejected.

The Nuggets had opened up a 110-92 lead. As DeRozan was driving to the bucket, Foster called him for an offensive charge. The 29-year-old was not happy and reacted by throwing the ball across the court in Foster's direction before even regaining his balance.

Before exiting the court, the four-time All-Star scored 19 points, dished five assists and grabbed five rebounds.

DeRozan has been a prominent contributor for San Antonio throughout this series, scoring 31 points in Game 2 and 25 points in Game 3.

Game 5 is slated for Tuesday night at 9:30 p.m. ET, televised on NBATV from Denver.

A woman that stabbed her roommate to death back in 1975 died before her trial which was set for May.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The suspect in the 1975 death of a teenager in Georgia has died before she could be put on trial.

Georgia news outlets report that 16-year-old Cheryl White and then 18-year-old Mary Jane Stewart were roommates living in an apartment complex in the city of Warner Robins when White was found stabbed to death on the morning of Nov. 12, 1975.

It took decades to build the case but Stewart was arrested in White's death in 2017 in Texas and released on bond. Trial had been set for May.

But, authorities only recently learned that the 61-year-old Stewart died in hospice care in October.

Houston County assistant district attorney Eric Edwards says he hopes Stewart's arrest and indictment can help bring Cheryl White's family some form of closure.

Stewart's death certificate said she died Oct. 23, 2018, of acute chronic respiratory failure, Edwards said. Stewart had been ill earlier in the summer of last year but the prosecution had understood that she had recovered, Edwards said.

Edwards said he received the death certificate last week and wanted to first break the news to White's father. He took it well, Edwards said.

"He's had 43 years to make peace with it," Edwards told The Telegraph in Macon. "He was thankful we were going to give it a shot."

Edwards said he expects to file the formal paperwork in Houston County Superior Court this week to dismiss the case.

Stewart was accused of stabbing her former roommate in the chest and cutting her throat with a knife, according to the indictment. White was stabbed 15 times in her throat, arms and side, according to Telegraph archives.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk appears poised to transform the companys electric cars into driverless vehicles in a risky bid to realize a bold vision that he has been floating for years.

The technology required to make that quantum leap is scheduled to be shown off to Tesla investors Monday at the companys Palo Alto, California, headquarters.

Musk, known for his swagger as well as his smarts, is so certain that Tesla will win the race toward full autonomy that he indicated earlier this month that his companys cars should be able to navigate congested highways and city streets without a human behind the wheel by no later than next year.

I could be wrong, but it appears to be the case that Tesla is vastly ahead of everyone, Musk told Lex Fridman, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology research scientist specializing in autonomous vehicles.

But experts say theyre skeptical whether Teslas technology has advanced anywhere close to the point where its cars will be capable of being driven solely by a robot, without a human in position to take control if something goes awry.

Its all hype, said Steven E. Shladover, a retired research engineer at the University of California, Berkeley who has been involved in efforts to create autonomous driving for 45 years. The technology does not exist to do what he is claiming. He doesnt have it and neither does anybody else.

More than 60 companies in the U.S. alone are developing autonomous vehicles. Some of them are aiming to have their fully autonomous cars begin carrying passengers in small geographic areas as early as this year. Many experts dont believe theyll be in widespread use for a decade or more.

Musks description of Teslas controls as Full Self-Driving has alarmed some observers who think it will give owners a false sense of security and create potentially lethal situations in conditions that the autonomous cars cant handle. They also say theyre waiting for Musk to define self-driving and show just under what conditions and places the vehicles can travel without human intervention, including specific data showing that they would be safer than human drivers and whether the systems safety has been reviewed by outside groups or government agencies.

Meanwhile, Musk continues to use both his and Teslas to pump up a new computer now in production for full self-driving vehicles. Once the self-driving software is ready, those with new computers will get an update via the internet, Musk has said. Currently the self-driving computer costs 5,000, but the price rises to 7,000 if its installed after delivery.

The more than 400,000 Tesla vehicles equipped for full autonomy will rely on eight cameras that cover 360 degrees, front-facing radar and short-range ultrasonic sensors.

Thats different from the self-driving systems being built by nearly every other company in industry, including Google spinoff Waymo, General Motors Cruise Automation, and Ford-affiliated Argo A. They all use cameras and radar covering 360 degrees, and also have light beam sensors called Lidar to the mix as a third redundant sensor, as well as detailed three-dimensional mapping.

Vehicles that dont have Lidar, that dont have advanced radar, that havent captured a 3-D map are not self-driving vehicles, Ken Washington, Fords chief technical officer, said during a recent interview with Recode. They are great consumer vehicles with really good driver-assist technology.

Even Lidar doesnt guarantee 100 percent safety. Waymo last year backed off of a pledge to run a robotaxi service in Phoenix without human backup drivers for safety reasons. And an Uber autonomous test vehicle with Lidar as well as a human backup driver a pedestrian last year in Tempe, Arizona, the first known death involving self-driving technology.

Amnon Shashua, CEO of Israeli autonomous vehicle computing company Mobileye, says cars with 360-degree cameras and front facing radar could drive autonomously, but they would not be as safe as human drivers. Careful humans can drive 10 million hours without a mistake leading to a fatal crash, but cars without full redundant sensors cannot, he said.

Phil Koopman, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, said Musk needs to show his cars can handle all situations if he wants to claim they can drive themselves. For instance, he wonders if Tesla has a plan for a big truck splashing gallons of grimy water onto a car in a snowstorm, obstructing the cameras.

The rabbit hole goes pretty deep if you want to make that (full self-driving) argument, he said.

Tesla already has been offering a system called Autopilot that can control cars on a limited basis with constant monitoring by a human driver. On its website, it says its Autopilot system steers your car in its lane and accelerates and brakes automatically for other vehicles and pedestrians in its lane. But questions already have been raised about Autopilots reliability after its involvement in three fatal crashes.

In one, neither the driver nor a Tesla Model S operating on the companys Autopilot driver-assist system spotted a tractor-trailer crossing in front of it on a Florida, highway in 2016. The car drove under the trailer shearing off the roof and killing the driver.

In a 2017 , the National Transportation Safety Board wrote that driver inattention and design limitations of Autopilot played major roles in the fatality, and it found that the Model S cameras and radar werent capable of detecting a vehicle turning into its path. Rather, the systems are designed to detect vehicles they are following to prevent rear-end collisions.

The agency also is still investigating the two other lethal crashes, one last month in Delray Beach, Florida, eerily similar to the 2016 Florida crash, and another involving a Tesla SUV that was operating on Autopilot when it hit a highway lane-dividing barrier in Silicon Valley.

Tesla maintains that its current systems are only for assistance, and that drivers must pay attention and be ready to intervene.

With Full Self-Driving Capability, Tesla touts that you get automatic driving from the highway on ramp to the off ramp including interchanges and changing lanes automatically to overtake slower cars. Later this year, the cars will be able to recognize and respond to traffic lights and stop signs and drive automatically on city streets, the website says.

Those feats are something that Tesla will likely have to prove to regulators in California - its largest U.S. market so far - before its fully autonomous cars are allowed on the roads there. But most other states dont have the same requirements as California. And experts say theres no federal law requiring preapproval for fully autonomous driving, as long as a vehicle meets federal safety standards, which Teslas do.

Unfortunately, it may be necessary for several people to die before regulators step in, Shladover said.

Krisher reported from Detroit.

At least 290 people were killed and hundreds more injured on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka when attackers unleashed an apparently coordinated series of suicide bombing that simultaneously targeted Christian churches and luxury hotels, sending a wave a terror across the globe

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
At least 290 people were killed and hundreds more injured on Easter Sunday in Sri Lanka when attackers unleashed an apparently coordinated series of suicide bombings that simultaneously targeted Christian churches and luxury hotels, sending a wave a terror across the globe.

Eight explosions took place miles apart, three at Christian churches holding Easter services and three at hotels, some commonly used by Western tourists. In addition to those who were killed, at least 450 were wounded, according to officials with police, the Colombo Hospital, and St. Sebastian Church.

Most of the explosions were detonated by suicide bombers, according to the Sri Lankan Defense Ministry.

At least 11 foreigners were confirmed killed in the attacks, including two victims who were dual citizens of the United States and the United Kingdom. One American was also among the missing, officials said.

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo confirmed Sunday that "several U.S. citizens were among those killed."

All of the foreigners died in attacks on hotels in Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka, an island nation off the southern tip of India in the Indian Ocean, according to the officials.

President Donald Trump sent his condolences to the country in an early morning tweet from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, where he is spending the Easter holiday.

"The United States offers heartfelt condolences to the great people of Sri Lanka," the president tweeted. "We stand ready to help!"

138 people have been killed in Sri Lanka, with more that 600 badly injured, in a terrorist attack on churches and hotels. The United States offers heartfelt condolences to the great people of Sri Lanka. We stand ready to help!
- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 21, 2019

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said in the statement that "the United States condemns in the strongest terms the outrageous terrorist attacks in Sri Lanka that have claimed so many precious lives on this Easter Sunday."

"Our heartfelt condolences go out to the families of the more than 200 killed and hundreds of others wounded," Sanders said in the statement. "We stand with the Sri Lankan government and people as they bring to justice the perpetrators of these despicable and senseless acts."

There were eight simultaneous explosions around 8:45 a.m. local time. Video from inside the St. Sebastian's Church in Negombo, a coastal city about 40 miles north of Colombo, showed the immediate aftermath a bombing there as worshipers who had just been praying for peace found themselves surrounded by devastation, death and chaos.

There were about 500 people at the Easter Mass at St. Sebastian when the explosion took place, according to officials from the church. Parishioners, many bleeding, scrambled to carry severely injured people from the church, which was littered with overturned chairs, shattered glass and debris that had fallen from the ceiling.

A statue in the sanctuary of Jesus Christ was left pockmarked and splashed with blood but remained standing.

St. Anthony's Shrine, a Catholic church in Colombo, and Zion Church, in Batticaloa, were also attacked. Colombo is located on the western side of Sri Lanka, while Batticaloa is on the eastern shore about 200 miles from the capital.

I wish to express my heartfelt closeness to the Christian community [of Sri Lanka

Shangri-La Hotel, Cinnamon Grand Hotel and Kingsbury Hotel, all located in Colombo -- and all popular with tourists -- were targeted in the bombings. An explosion occurred near an overpass in the area of Dematagoda near Colombo, the Associated Press reported.

Hours after the initial bombings, a ninth explosion occurred at a guest house in Colombo that killed at least two people, according to police.

On Sunday night, at 10:15 local time, a 6-foot-long was detected on a road near Colombo International Airport. The country's air force initiated a controlled explosion, Air Force spokesman Gihan Seneviratne told ABC News.

Police chief warned of attack

The wave of bombings came after the Sri Lanka police chief issued a nationwide alert 10 days ago that suicide bombers planned to attack "prominent churches," according to multiple reports.

"Some intelligence officers were aware of this incidence. Therefore, there was a delay in action. What my father heard was also from an intelligence officer. Serious action need to be taken as to why this warning was ignored," Harin Fernando, a member of parliament in Sri Lanka, tweeted Sunday and included a document he says is the security warning.

Pope Francis prays for the victim

Following Easter Mass in St. Peter's Square at the Vatican, Pope Francis condemned the "cruel violence" that "have wrought grief and sorrow."

"I wish to express my heartfelt closeness to the Christian community [of Sri Lanka], wounded as it was gathered in prayer, and to all the victims of such cruel violence," Pope Francis said. "I entrust to the Lord all those who have tragically perished, and I pray for the injured and all those who suffer as a result of this tragic event."

Officials who spoke to ABC News were able to confirm at least 24 people were killed at St. Anthony's Church, 27 died at Batticaloa's Zion Church and 81 have died at St. Sebastian Church.

The explosions were followed by the wail of sirens from emergency vehicles headed to the multiple bombing scenes.

Ruwan Gunasekara, a police spokesman, said that in addition to the 207 killed, approximately 450 people were injured, overwhelming hospitals throughout the island nation.

The National Hospital in Colombo reported that 66 people had died there from injuries suffered in the attacks and that 260 were being treated, Gunasekara said. At the Negombo Hospital, 104 people were reported dead and 100 of the injured were being treated, he said.

Another 37 people were pronounced dead at the Kalubowila, Batticaloa and Brown's hospitals. Eighty-nine people were being treated at those medical centers, Gunaskekara said.

Authorities confirmed that three British citizens, in addition to the two with dual American citizenship, one Portuguese citizen, three Indian and two Turkish nationals were among the dead.

"It's a very, very sad day for all of us. I wish to, therefore, express my deepest sorrow and sympathy to all those innocent families that have lost someone, and also to those who have been injured and rendered destitute," Malcolm Ranjith, the archbishop of Colombo, said at a news conference. "I would like to call upon all to pray that all those who are injured may be healed soon and that all these families who lost someone may be consoled.

"I condemn to the utmost of my capacity this act that has caused so much death and suffering to the people," Ranjith said. "I ask all us Sri Lankan people not to take the law into their own hands and to maintain peace and harmony in this country. And I also ask that all those who are able to donate blood in order to help these people who are injured, and then I also appeal to the doctors to please help us."

Several suspects arrested

Secretary of State Pompeo said the U.S. Embassy in Sri Lanka is working to provide assistance to American citizens affected by the attacks, including their families.

"These vile attacks are a stark reminder of why the United States remains resolved in our fight to defeat terrorism," Pompeo said in his statement. "We stand with the Sri Lankan government and people as they confront violent extremism and have offered our assistance as they work to bring the perpetrators to justice."

Buddhism is the most common religion in Sri Lanka. National Christian Evangelical Alliance of Sri-Lanka documented the growing number of attacks on Christians in 2018, saying there were 67 from January to September.

No one has claimed responsibility for the attacks. But Gunasekara, the police spokesman, said at a news conference that several people had been arrested, clarifying an earlier report from the Associated Press that seven suspects were taken into custody. As of early Monday, 24 individuals had been detained.

Gunasekara also said that multiple raids had been carried out as police worked to identify those responsible for the carnage.

Gunasekara said it was too early to say who was behind the attack or comment on a possible motive.

Dangerous history

Sri Lanka has been at times one of the most dangerous locations in the world for terrorist attacks. A civil war that raged for decades between the ruling government and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam -- known colloquially as the Tamil Tigers or LTTE -- officially ended in 2009, but some conflict has continued. As many as 100,000 people were killed in the civil war from 1982 to 2009, according to the U.N.

The U.K. government warns travelers of the risks posed by those visiting the country.

"Terrorist attacks in Sri Lanka can't be ruled out," the government advises on its website. "Attacks could be indiscriminate, including in places visited by foreigners."

The U.S. lists Sri Lanka as a Level 1 country, the lowest risk level, which warns travelers to exercise normal precautions.

The country was also divided by a constitutional crisis at the end of 2018 when Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe was removed by the country's president in October, only to be reinstated in December.

"I strongly condemn the cowardly attacks on our people today," Wickremesinghe said in a tweet. "I call upon all Sri Lankans during this tragic time to remain united and strong. Please avoid propagating unverified reports and speculation. The government is taking immediate steps to contain this situation."

Security was increased across Sri Lanka, including Colombo's international airport. Authorities also imposed an indefinite nationwide curfew from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. and temporarily blocked major social media and messaging services, including Facebook and WhatsApp, to curb what government officials described as misinformation from being spread.

U.S. security boosted

The bombings sent shockwaves all the way to the United States, where security was bolstered at churches coast to coast.

In California, the Los Angeles Police Department boosted patrols around places of worship. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo directed the State Police to increase security at churches and houses of worship across the state.

"New York grieves for the victims of the horrific attacks at churches and hotels in Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday," Cuomo said in a statement. "On behalf of all New Yorkers, I extend my deepest condolences to the people of Sri Lanka, to the families who lost loved ones and to all those grieving around the world.

"In the wake of these despicable acts of violence and out of an abundance of caution, I am directing State Police to increase patrols around churches and houses of worship across the state today," Cuomo said. "During these troubling times, we will not be intimidated by cowardly acts of violence and will continue to do everything in our power to ensure the safety of all New Yorkers."

A U.S. intelligence bulletin issued last week and obtained by ABC News raised ongoing serious concerns that U.S. law enforcement generally has in anticipation of high-profile holidays or gatherings, specifically Easter, Passover and Ramadan. But the bulletin said there was no evidence of a confirmed attack planned in the United States or U.S. facilities elsewhere.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, the National Counterterrorism Center and the Department of Homeland Security "are not aware of any specific, credible threats surrounding the upcoming religious holiday season, but note that previous attacks happened with little to no warning," read the intelligence bulletin issued on Thursday.

"Religious holiday gatherings are an attractive target for HVEs [homegrown violent extremists] and domestic extremists because they offer an opportunity to capitalize on large crowds and increased symbolism of the target," the bulletin reads.

ABC News' Kirit Radia, Josh Margolin and Alex Stone contributed to this report.

NBA playoffs scores, highlights, results: Celtics sweep Pacers; Warriors, Raptors and Trail Blazers take 3-1 series leads

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
There were four games of action on the second Sunday of the NBA playoffs, with one team being eliminated and three other teams taking commanding 3-1 leads in their respective series.

To start the day off, the Boston Celtics became the first team to advance into the second round when they took care of the Indiana Pacers in Game 4 to complete their sweep. Gordon Hayward, Marcus Morris and Terry Rozier stepped up off the bench, combining for 49 points to offset the struggles of Kyrie Irving and Al Horford.

In the second game of the day, the defending champion Golden State Warriors held off another feisty effort from the Los Angeles Clippers for their second straight win in the series. Led by 33 points from Kevin Durant and 32 points from Klay Thompson, the Warriors are now up 3-1, and will have a chance to close things out at home in Game 5 on Wednesday night.

Later on, the Toronto Raptors also claimed a 3-1 series lead when they crushed the Orlando Magic by 22 points. Kawhi Leonard led the way with a dominant performance, finishing with 34 points and six assists, as the Raptors won their third straight game after dropping Game 1.

Finally, the Portland Trail Blazers defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder at Chesapeake Energy Arena to take a commanding 3-1 lead over OKC as the series shifts back to Portland for Game 5.

Here's everything you need to know about the night's action.

NBA playoffs schedule for Sunday, April 21

NBA playoffs schedule for Sunday, April 21

Blazers take 3-1 series lead over Thunder

The Thunder are on the brink of being eliminated in the first round of the playoffs for the third straight season. The Blazers defeated the Thunder, 111-98, to take a commanding 3-1 series lead behind C.J. McCollum's 27 points and Damian Lillard's 24 points. Game 5 will take place in Portland on Tuesday night as the Blazers look to close things out.

Adams pulls off monster jam over Blazers

This is why Steven Adams was voted the toughest player in the NBA in the annual general manager survey before the season started. As the Thunder looked to tie their series at two-all, Adams pulled off the highlight of the first half with this slam dunk.

Leonard dominates for Toronto

Up 2-1 in the road, and facing a feisty Magic team with real hopes of evening the series at 2-2, Kawhi Leonard showed exactly why the Raptors traded for him in Game 4. Leonard dropped 34 points and grabbed six rebounds to go along with his strong defense in a completely dominant performance.

Ross nails buzzer-beater at end of third quarter

The Magic have struggled against the Raptors during Game 4, but Terrence Ross may have just kept them in this game with this buzzer-beating 3-pointer at the end of the third quarter.

Kawhi leads Raptors to major lead at halftime

You can thank Kawhi Leonard for the Raptors' major lead at halftime. The former Finals MVP posted 18 points and five boards to lead Toronto to a 16-point lead at the half as the Toronto looked to gain a 3-to-1 advantage in their first-round series.

Ibaka stuffs Gordon at rim on dunk attempt

Aaron Gordon may be a slam dunk artist, but Serge Ibaka wasn't having any of it here. As the Magic forward attempted a posterizing slam dunk, the Toronto Raptors forward made sure to deny him his highlight.

Kawhi pulls off dunk after nifty spin move

Who says Kawhi Leonard is a boring player? As the Raptors looked to move to a 3-1 series lead over the Magic, Leonard just pulled off one nifty highlight -- a spin move leading directly to a dunk on the fastbreak.

Iguodala cuts inside for the jam

Andre Iguodala turned back the clock a bit early in the fourth quarter when he cut inside and threw down a powerful slam off the feed from Andrew Bogut.

Robinson gets the steal, and slam for the Clippers

Rookie Jerome Robinson gave the Clippers some solid two-way play in the first half against the Warriors, as he came up with the steal on one end of the floor and finished with a dunk on the other end early in the second quarter of action. It also came capped off an 11-0 run for Los Angeles in the second quarter.

Klay owns hot hand early for Golden State

The Golden State Warriors are looking to put the Los Angeles Clippers in a deep 3-1 hole in their best-of-seven first-round series with a win Sunday afternoon. They got a big boost from All-Star shooting guard Klay Thompson early on. Thompson came out on fire in Game 4 against the Clippers and started the game a scoring 7-for-7 from the floor for 17 points.

Hayward steps up for the Celtics

The Celtics' stars struggled in Game 4, but they still got the victory thanks to some strong play off the bench. That included Gordon Hayward, who looked a lot like his old self in putting up 20 points on 7-of-9 shooting. He also hit a number of big shots in the fourth quarter to help the Celtics pull away.

Kyrie crosses and scores

Kyrie Irving didn't have the best first half on Sunday, but he was determined to play better in the second. He started with a nasty crossover and jumper on Thaddeus Young.

Turner rises for the rejection, then the slam

Myles Turner was the league's leading shot blocker this season, and he showed off that ability in the first quarter with a huge block on Jaylen Brown. Later on, he threw down a ridiculous poster dunk over Gordon Hayward.

Photos from after the surgery showed surgeons cradling the massive cyst, which looks to be the size of a watermelon. It wasn't clear what kind of medication she had been prescribed for her pain prior to the surgery, or if she had presented any other symptoms, but SWNS reported that doctors were baffled when they discovered the massive cyst.

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs or pockets in an ovary or on its surface, and while many women develop them at some point, most present little or no discomfort and are harmless, typically disappearing on their own within a few months. But larger ovarian cysts, like the one found in this 16-year-old patient, can cause pelvic pain, fullness or heaviness in the abdomen or bloating, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Risks factors can include hormonal issues, endometriosis, pelvic infection or previous cysts.

Last week, a writer spoke of her desire to lead a more active lifestyle after she had a 15-inch cyst removed from her abdomen. Layla Cummins said the cyst left her looking pregnant, and that while it wasn't painful it had caused her to feel fatigued and she lost her appetite. Doctors removed her right ovary and fallopian tube, which had been damaged due to the weight of the growth.
