2…………> New Genome Threat: Canada

.
Canadian doctors have been stumped by an unknown neurological disease that has affected residents of a small province, with the illness has been described by one researcher as a medical “whodunit”, which occurs a couple of times per century, the first known case of the disease was reported in 2015, but news of it became public just recently, when a memo written about it by New Brunswick’s chief medical doctor was leaked to the press in March.

The mysterious ailment has various symptoms: insomnia, impaired motor function, visual disorders, and hallucinations – including visions of the dead. At least 48 people are known to have suffered from the disease, which has the bizarre working name Neurological Syndrome of Unknown Etiology (NSUE) in New Brunswick. Six people have died from it.

4…………>  MN Trouble: Another Shooting?

.
Protesters took to the streets of Minneapolis for a second night to protest the lethal shooting of an armed Black man by law enforcement, after someone wanted on a weapons violation was fatally shot by police after he “produced a handgun”, with state investigators also saying that a handgun and spent cartridge found inside the car suggest he fired it. The man was later identified by his family and friends as Winston Boogie Smith Jr, 32.

Smith was wanted for allegedly being a felon in possession of a firearm in 2019, following the case from a 2017 assault and robbery of his ex-girlfriend, to which he pleaded guilty. He was barred from possessing a firearm due to his felony conviction and was charged in 2019 with two counts of illegal firearm possession.
