French President Emmanuel Macron has promised to rebuild Notre Dame Cathedral and says he is seeking international help to restore the Paris landmark.
Macron said after the French capital's fire chief announced the emergency response had changed into a monitoring and mop-up operation, "The worst has been avoided although the battle is not yet totally won."
Paris fire commander Jean-Claude Gallet said a major accomplishment of hundreds of firefighters was stopping the flames from spreading to the north tower belfry.
Gallet says two-thirds of Notre Dame's roofing "has been ravaged." He says one firefighter was injured.
The body cam video of a deadly officer-involved shooting on March 25 was released by Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Monday.
The video is approximately two minutes and 30 seconds long. The first 40 seconds are silent, which is standard when police release body cam video.
In the video, which was worn by CMPD officer Wende Kerl, multiple officers are seen engaging with 27-year-old Danquirs Franklin, who was kneeling beside a maroon Honda. Officers are heard telling Franklin to "drop the weapon" and "put it on the ground" at least 17 times.
Franklin is then seen with an object in his right hand. As soon as the object becomes visible, multiple shots are fired by Kerl and Franklin falls to the ground. He was rushed to a Charlotte hospital where he died from his injuries.
Editor's note: Out of respect for the Franklin family, NBC Charlotte has elected not to show the aftermath of Danquirs Franklin's death. NBC Charlotte has paused the video before police fire the first shot, but the real-time audio continues to play.
Zion Williamson is leaving Duke after one high-flying season to enter the NBA draft. Widely projected as the top overall pick in the June draft, the AP national player of the year announced his decision Monday.
The 6-foot-7, 285-pound Williamson captivated all of college basketball with his freakish, once-in-a-generation athleticism, his energy at both ends of the floor and his omnipresent charisma.
Woods won his fifth Masters title Sunday, overcoming personal and professional adversity to once more claim the green jacket.
Trump tweeted Monday that he spoke to Woods and congratulated him on "the great victory" and "to inform him that because of his incredible Success & Comeback in Sports (Golf) and, more importantly, LIFE, I will be presenting him with the PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF FREEDOM!"
Trump didn't say when a ceremony will be held. The medal is the nation's highest honor for a civilian.
The murder rate jumped again with two deadly shootings Monday. One of the victims was just 20 years old.
Police say they’ve made progress in some areas, including where one of the murders happened on Monday. Investigators say the area where Davis was killed, near the intersection of Hidden Valley Road and Sugar Creek, has had a decrease in violent crime this year.
“We’ve got to change that culture, we got to put the guns down and talk through our issues,” Chief Putney previously said.
