Springfield Police Arrest 8 People and Seize 9 Guns During 7-Hour Weekend Enforcement Shift

Additional officers working overnight weekend patrols made proactive stops that led to firearm-related arrests and recovered weapons.

Authorities say investigators found images on electronic devices during a May 28 search at a St. Joseph home.

Investigators say the arrests are tied to a renewed look at the long-unsolved killing of a Barry County teenager.

Heavy weekend rain triggered deadly flooding, road closures and evacuations across central and southern Kentucky.

Statewide warning totals already top every year in the record, with the Chicago-area office issuing nearly half of them.

Three people were pulled from the vehicle after heavy rain and flooding complicated the rescue along Bewley Hollow Road.

The workers were fixing potholes early Saturday when a driver struck them on southbound Interstate 294, Illinois State Police said.

Prosecutors say the trooper used his position to help towing companies profit and mishandle stolen vehicles and evidence.
