“Baltimore officer, suspect wounded in street shooting”
April 15, 2008 - 7:49pm
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “BALTIMORE (AP) - A Baltimore police officer and a suspect are in critical condition after a shooting in west Baltimore.
Police spokesman Sterling Clifford says that after two plainclothes officers from a gang unit pulled over a car about 2:15 p.m. today, a suspect got out, struggled with Officer Mark Spila (SPEE-lah), 25, and ran off. While he was being chased on foot, the suspect turned and fired at Spila, striking him in the upper part of one of his legs. Spila returned fire, and the suspect was shot several times.
Other police officers engaged a second suspect in a gun battle. Police are looking for that second suspect.”

Spain's nuclear watchdog appealed to the public on Tuesday to return a yellow case stolen from a car because it contained radioactive material.
"It could represent a risk if the equipment is opened or destroyed as it would leave the source (of radiation) without protection," said the Nuclear Safety Council (CSN).
CSN said the material would not represent a risk if the case remained shut. It was part of equipment used to measure density and humidity levels belonging to ICAES, a company based near Madrid which carries out quality tests on construction sites.
