Live from NPR News, I'm Giles Snyder, Maine and Appendent Senator Angus King ...

"Motor is fatally shop Monday morning by immigration and customs enforcement officers

was not the target of the warrant the officers were trying to serve."

King says he got that information from Homeland Security Secretary Mark Wayne Mullin, Maine Public's R.E. Snyder is following what happened in Bitterford, near Portland. "Bitterford's a small city, it's maybe, you know, a little over 20,000 people, and it's got deep immigrant roots in part because it was a mill town, and so it drew a lot of French Canadians.

And now it has growing immigrant communities from other parts of the world, and part because people are being priced out of Portland, which is not far away but it's quite expensive. The reaction there today on the ground was swift, many residents said they're in shock that something like this could happen in their small town. The shooting took place in the morning and by noon a couple hundred protesters were marching

through downtown. So Homeland Security Department says an Ives officer opened fire because he feared for public safety when the motor was attempted to flee. The shooting in Maine came less than a week after an Ives agent patially shot a man in a

traffic stop in Houston, Texas during a deportation crackdown.

"Bitterford government is running a bigger deficit this year than it did last year, and PR Scott Horsey reports on the latest red ink from the Treasury Department." Federal tax collections are up this year, but federal spendings growing even faster. Nine months into the fiscal year the government's more than $1.3 trillion in the red. Just paying interest on the government's accumulated debt has cost more than a trillion

dollars in the last nine months. That's more than the government spends on almost any other single program with the exception of social security. Terror for Avenue is declined since the Supreme Court struck down the president's most sweeping import taxes.

The administration is working to impose new terrorists in the meantime, the latest report from

the Treasury Department shows the government has paid more than $80 billion in refund

funds for terrorists that were collected illegally. Scott Horsey and Pernu is Washington's secretary of state, Marco Rubio says he's beginning a campaign to dismantle the International Criminal Court. The world's only standing more crimes tribunal. Rubio calls the ICC a threat to U.S. sovereignty as Imperial Special Kalman reports.

In an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal, and in an online video, Secretary Rubio accuses the international criminal court based in the haig of waging a war against the U.S. Not with bullets or missiles, but with statutes, compacts, and the force of so-called international law. Rubio says U.S. service members or border patrol agents could be at risk for prosecution,

but the court was set up more than two decades ago to prosecute war crimes in genocide in countries that don't or won't hold their personnel to account. The Trump administration imposed sanctions to stop an ICC investigation into Afghanistan. And now Rubio says he will work to dismantle what he calls the court's threat to U.S. sovereignty.

Michelle Kalman and B.R. News, the State Department. And this is M.P.R. News. Iran is retaliating for the latest U.S. strikes on the country. Bahrain sounded its missile alert system for a third time Tuesday morning. Iran has also targeted two tankers associated with the United Arab Emirates killing one

person and moaning eight others. U.S. military says it has completed a third consecutive night of strikes on Iran. The death toll from Sunday's fire at a bar in Bangkok is rising. Officials say 30 people are now confirmed dead, and that more than 70 remain hospitalized

to dozen of them in critical condition.

The beloved New Zealand actor Sam Neal has died at 8.78 at a wide-ranging career over some 50 years, most famously in the Jurassic Park franchise. And Pierce and Estosius Yolkis reports. Sam Neal was best known and loved by fans for the 1993 Steven Spielberg Blockbuster Jurassic Park.

He played a paleontologist with doubts. Dinosaurs and man, two species separated by 65 million years of evolution has been suddenly thrown back into the mix together.

How can we possibly have the slightest idea of what to expect?

His family said he died in Sydney, Australia, but did not provide any further details. On Estosius Yolkis and Pierre News, New York.
