 A Mother's Day Nightmare in Princeton, Illinois. A 3-year-old boy was struck by gunfire as police burst into a barricaded room, ending a frightening hostage situation. Multiple agencies responded to the Hummingbird Mobile Home Park in Princeton, Illinois, on Sunday, May 10th at 2:42 a.m. The initial call went out as a domestic disturbance but officers discovered much worse.  42-year-old, Anthony Rodriguez, had barricaded himself in a room armed with a knife.

 Tanzanian President Suluhu Hassan dismises two prominent ministers 


Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan removed two prominent ministers as part of a major Cabinet reshuffle, according to the acting director of presidential communications, Sharifa Nyanga.


The dismissal of Foreign Minister January Makamba and Minister of Information, Communication and Information Technology Nape Nnauye on Sunday, came amid rumors that they were secretly plotting to challenge President Hassan's re-election bid.


The dismissal of Nnauye comes a week after comments he made surfaced in a video, saying elections results would depend on who counts votes and announces the results.


Nnauye later apologised, saying it was a joke, but activists and some social media users said the statement undermined Hassan's push to improve democracy.


Hassan appointed Mahmoud Thabit Kombo as new foreign affairs minister and Jerry Silaa as minister of information, communication and information technology.


Before Kombo's appointment, he was Tanzania's ambassador to Italy while Silaa was the minister of lands, housing and human settlements development. Two more ministers and deputy ministers were also appointed, the presidency said.


President Hassan took office following the death of the populist leader John Magufuli.
