A wet spring in Las Vegas has spawned hordes of grasshoppers so large, they're showing up on the weather radar.In viewing the radar, CNN meteorologist Allison Chinchar said it looked like there were two storms over the Vegas area: one north of the city (that was actual rain) and another right over Las Vegas. But the second one wasn't moving as rain normally would, she said."It looked as though it should be torrentially downpouring in Las Vegas," said Chinchar.By changing the settings on the radar, meteorologists could see that the other "storm" was actually the massive hordes of grasshoppers that have settled over the city in recent days, Chinchar said. 673

America has a deadly addiction to opioids, and Aimee Sandefur has both the emotional and physical scars to prove it.“I got them right there,” she says, pointing to track marks on her arm. “I have abscess. That was an abscess where they had to cut my arm open.”Sandefur has overdosed dozens of times, saying she’s lucky to be alive.“I overdosed 35 times, and by the grace of God I’m clean and sober now,” she says. “I didn’t think I was going to make it.” In Dayton, Ohio, local leaders are calling opioid and heroin abuse a national epidemic. “I described it then as I do now as a mass fatality event,” says Montgomery County Coroner Dr. Kent Harshbarger. Dr. Harshbarger says in 2017, there were so many opioid-related deaths that his morgue ran out space to the store all the dead bodies.“Our numbers were astronomical,” he says. “We ended up with about 566 overdose deaths in 2017. But we’re a regional center, so we probably ended with 1,400 overdose deaths that we handle in 2017.” During that time, Dr. Harshbarger says up to 75 percent of all the cases his team handled were overdoses. Now, that number is down to 40 percent.“Oh my God. America has a huge problem with opioids,” says Helen Jones-Kelley, executive director of the Montgomery County Alcohol, Drug Dddiction & Mental Health Services. “Even though we’re seeing some of the numbers begin to drop, it hasn’t decreased the overall problem by any stretch.” Jones-Kelley says despite a decrease in overdoses people are still using and still dying from these drugs. In an attempt to keep users alive, her team has now changed its approach. “Before we used to just turn our heads. Now, we get involved,” she says. “We’re giving people information, so hopefully they won’t use but if they do, they use in a way that they won’t die.” Also helping to save more lives is the access to more NARCAN for more people.Some, however, say saving an addict only gives them another chance to do more drugs. “It’s a drug that, unfortunately, once it gets you it gets you,” says former opioid-turned-heroin user Daniel Duncan.After his prescription of pills ran out, Duncan turned to the streets to fill the void.“A lot of people--when they found out or I told them--they were like, “Not you, man. You’re black,’” he says. “It doesn’t discriminate.” After years of lying and stealing to feed his fix, Duncan was finally able to kick his opioid addiction, but only after serving time in jail. “I say there is hope. Don’t give up. Don’t give up at all,” he says. “You deserve much more than that. You’re better than that. It can be done.” While some can overcome their drug dependencies, others say they lost things that they can never get back.“My mom came beating on my door, and I’m like, ‘Mom, I don’t have no crack,’” Sandefur says. “And she’s like, ‘I know you have crack’ and I’m like, ‘Mom, I don’t have no crack; I have heroin.’”Sandefur says she unintentionally gave her mom a lethal dose of heroin. “Next thing you know I hear screaming downstairs, and my mom is lying on the living room floor blue in the face dead,” she says.Since her mother’s death, Sandefur says she hasn’t used drugs but that she ended her addiction too late.“I wish my mom was still here,” she says. 3246

A team of doctors, lawyers and advocates are warning of what they say are major health and hygiene problems at several US Customs and Border Protection facilities in Texas."There was just a pervasive health crisis," said attorney Toby Gialluca, describing what she said were conditions at the Ursula Processing Center in McAllen, Texas. "Virtually everyone we saw was ill."Clara Long, a senior researcher for Human Rights Watch, described what she said were "unconscionable conditions" at a Border Patrol station in Clint, Texas, where unaccompanied minors were being held."The kids had colds and were sick and said they didn't have access to soap to wash their hands. It was an alcohol-based cleanser. Some kids who were detained for 2-3 weeks had only one or two opportunities to shower. One said they hadn't showered in three weeks," she said. "Hygiene and living conditions like this creates a risk of spreading infectious disease. It makes me very concerned about the public health emergency."The allegations, 1027

A reputed New York crime boss was shot and killed outside a home Wednesday night.Francesco Cali, 53, was found with multiple gunshot wounds to the torso, the NYPD said.A law enforcement official confirmed to CNN that the victim was a high-ranking member of the Gambino crime family and is believed to be the acting boss.Police responded to a 911 call Wednesday night of an assault in front of the home in the New York borough of Staten Island.EMS responded to the scene and transported Cali to Staten Island University North where he was pronounced dead.Police say there are no arrests and the investigation is ongoing.Cali had been considered a unifying figure in the years after John Gotti, "Dapper Don," was convicted and sent to prison by cooperating mob witnesses, CNN affiliate WPIX reported.Unlike the well-dressed Gotti of the late 80s and early 90s, Cali kept a low profile.He was the first New York crime family boss shot in 34 years, according to the station. In 1985, Paul Castellano was executed as he arrived at Sparks Steakhouse in Manhattan. Gotti and his turncoat underboss, Sammy "Bull" Gravano reportedly watched the action from nearby. 1167

America's longest war may finally be nearing an end. More than 18 years after the Afghanistan conflict began in response to the September 11, 2001, attacks, the United States and the Islamists it toppled from power in Afghanistan are poised to sign a peace deal on Saturday. That will set the stage for the withdrawal of U.S. troops, some of whom were not yet born when the World Trade Center collapsed. And it promises the potential end of a tremendous American investment of blood and treasure. Negotiations among Afghan factions are still to come. 563
