Monday, December 16, 2024 4:02AM Fresno Police are searching for two men involved in an armed robbery, where one suspect opened fire at a convenience store door to escape. FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — Police are searching for two men who were involved in an armed robbery in southwest Fresno. Officers responded to an alarm at the EZ Mart on Cesar Chavez Boulevard and Thorne Avenue just after 12:30 p.m. Sunday. When officers arrived, they found damage to the front door. Investigators say two men approached the store on bikes, and one entered wearing a Halloween-style mask. The man then pulled out a gun and began demanding money from the cash register. A locking mechanism was activated during the robbery to prevent the suspect from leaving but the man fired one shot into the glass door to escape. Officers say employees, as well as shoppers, were inside the store during the robbery. No one was hurt. Investigators are canvassing the area for additional evidence as well as potential witnesses. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Fresno Police Department. Copyright © 2024 KFSN-TV. All Rights

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday that he had a “very warm” phone call with US President-elect Donald Trump, during which they spoke about the need for Israel’s victory in its war on Hamas in Gaza and its stance on Syria. In a video statement, Israel’s leader said he discussed a range of issues with Trump during the call on Saturday evening, including Israel’s commitment to preventing Lebanon-based Hezbollah from rearming and Israel’s conflict with Hamas, which has killed nearly 45,000 Palestinians in the besieged Gaza strip. The leaders also spoke of the need to bring home the remaining hostages in Gaza, Netanyahu said. “I discussed all of this again last night with my friend, US President-elect Donald Trump,” Netanyahu said. “It was a very friendly, very warm and very important conversation. We spoke about the need to complete Israel’s victory, and we also spoke at length about the efforts we are making to free our hostages.” Hamas and other groups are believed to still be holding 100 hostages in Gaza, including seven Americans. All but four of the hostages were captured during Hamas’

With a bit more poise and good fortune, the San Jose Sharks could be riding a modest winning streak going into their game with the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday. Instead, the Sharks have a couple of days to regroup after a back-and-forth game Saturday turned into an aggravating 4-3 loss to the Utah Hockey Club at SAP Center. Leading 3-2 approaching the midway point of the third period, the Sharks gave up an even-strength goal at the 9:49 mark to Michael Carcone before allowing a power play goal to Clayton Keller with 43.8 seconds left in regulation time. The script felt all too familiar in the Sharks’ fourth loss in five games. On Tuesday against the Carolina Hurricanes, the Sharks also coughed up a third-period lead, allowing two goals in the final 15:49, including one with 2:39 to go, in a 3-2 loss in Raleigh. “(Utah) definitely had a push in the third,” said Sharks defenseman Cody Ceci. “We tried to handle it. Going forward, we’ll try and get more of a killer instinct than we have in the past. “We’ve taken a big step

NEW YORK — Travis Hunter turned every play into prime time – on both sides of the ball – and ultimately took home the Heisman Trophy. Now he’s got a leg up on his celebrity coach at Colorado. The two-way star won college football’s most prestigious award Saturday night, punctuating a tireless performance all season by a dynamic player with a unique combination of skills. “Never thought I would be in this position,” a tearful Hunter said as he thanked everyone from his fiancée to family members and former and current coaches. “It’s crazy. Belief takes you a long way.” While posing for countless photos with the iconic statue over the past two days, Hunter made a point not to put his hands on the Heisman. He said he didn’t want to touch it unless it was his. Once it finally was, he grabbed the trophy hard with two hands and let loose a happy scream: “Let’s go!” Next stop, a local spot he reserved to celebrate with teammates. “I don’t like to be out late, but I’m going to be out late tonight,” Hunter

DENVER — Dozens of kids cheered on a festively decked-out plane in Denver on Saturday when the pilot announced their destination for the day: the North Pole. More than 100 children, some of whom have serious health issues, were then taken on a roughly 45-minute flight near the city before landing back at Denver International Airport and being towed to a hangar transformed by United Airlines employees and volunteers into the North Pole. Streamers, paper snowflakes and tufts of cotton resembling feathery snow dotted the plane and seats. Flight personnel paraded a bubble machine up and down the aisle to shouts of “bubbles, bubbles, bubbles” from the excited children. Holiday songs played in the background and there were apple snacks and juice for all. Before landing, the children were asked to close their window shades. When they opened, the kids were met by the sight of a waiting Santa and Mrs. Claus and a host of elves. An ice cream truck was on hand and the children received gifts. Bryce Bosley, 6, was tickled to see Santa and all the North Pole had to offer.

For the first time in over a decade, obesity rates in the United States may finally be heading in the right direction and new weight loss drugs like semaglutide could be part of the reason why. A new study published Friday in the journal, JAMA Health Forum, found that obesity numbers ticked down slightly from 46% in 2022 to 45.6% in 2023. While only a slight decline, this is the first drop recorded in at least a decade. “What we’re seeing for the first time is that curve is bending and shows a sign of hope for something that was really a threat to American public health for so many years,” said study co-author and ABC News contributor John Brownstein, who is also the chief innovation officer at Boston Children’s Hospital and a professor at Harvard Medical School. The study reviewed the body mass index (BMIs), a measure of obesity, of 16.7 million U.S. adults over a 10-year period. The average BMI rose annually to 30.24 — which is considered obese — until it plateaued in 2022, then dropped marginally to 30.21 in 2023. This

Warriors beat writer Danny Emerman shares his thoughts on the NBA The first innings of the Jimmy Butler trade sweepstakes revealed what everyone should have already known: There has never been a more challenging environment to make a seismic trade. Consider Butler’s four reported (and publicly rebuffed) preferred destinations. The only player the Suns could trade to match up salaries is Bradley Beal, and he has a no-trade clause. Phoenix isn’t allowed to stack contracts, either. There’s no way for the Mavericks to make a run at Butler without dealing at least three rotation players, and then keeping him beyond this season would require being an apron team. Houston has the trade chips, but how would adding Butler (a career 33%, low-volume 3-point shooter) solve their biggest issue of outside shooting? The Rockets rank 27th in 3-point percentage and would likely lose some of their best shooters in a hypothetical trade. Then there’s the Warriors, who would need to give up Andrew Wiggins in any trade package for a star-level player (or, rather, a star-level contract). In the Warriors’ ideal world, they’d be able to

The Warriors officially acquired Dennis Schroder in a low-risk package of second-rounders and salary filler, making the first splash as trade season hit its first checkpoint on Sunday morning. The final details of the trade are as follows: — Warriors receive: Dennis Schroder, 2025 second-round pick (protected 31-37 via Miami) — Nets receive: De’Anthony Melton, Reece Beekman, 2026 and 2028 second-round picks via Atlanta, 2029 second-round pick The deal, which was initially reported on Saturday, went through on Sunday as soon as Melton — and most of the league — became trade-eligible. Steve Kerr had been talking with general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. and the front office for weeks about how to address the loss of Melton, who suffered a season-ending ACL tear. Kerr said on Sunday he’s “thrilled” by the trade. “I told Dennis today, he’s kicked my ass on three different continents,” Kerr said, referencing Schroder’s international play. “If you can’t beat him, join him.” In acquiring Schroder, the Warriors address a need for a late-game decision-maker and multi-level scorer from the backcourt. Schroder, who’s averaging 18.4 points per game, instantly becomes the

NEW YORK — As New York City prosecutors work to bring murder charges against Luigi Mangione in the brazen killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, supporters of the suspect are donating tens of thousands of dollars for a defense fund established for him, leaving law enforcement officials worried Mangione is being turned into a martyr. Several online defense funds have been created for Mangione by anonymous people, including one on the crowdfunding website GiveSendGo that as of Sunday morning had raised over $100,000. NOTE: The video above is from a previous report. The GiveSendGo defense fund for the 26-year-old Mangione was established by an anonymous group calling itself “The December 4th Legal Committee,” apparently in reference to the day Mangione allegedly ambushed and gunned down Thompson in Midtown Manhattan as the executive walked to his company’s shareholders conference at the New York Hilton hotel. “We are not here to celebrate violence, but we do believe in the constitutional right to fair legal representation,” the anonymous group said in a statement. The crowdfunding campaign prompted donations from thousands of anonymous donors across the country, many of
