 Somali World Cup Referee Denied Entry to United States Award-winning Somali referee, Omar Artan, has been denied entry into the United States despite holding a valid visa, according to a senior official in Somalia’s sports ministry.

 3 men charged in shooting to death of rising Latin singer Delarosa in Los Angeles 

Three men have been charged with murder in the fatal shooting of 22-year-old Maria De La Rosa, a rising Latin singer known professionally as DELAROSA, in Los Angeles over the weekend.

The attack occurred Saturday morning in the Northridge neighborhood while De La Rosa was sitting in a parked car with two other people. Prosecutors said three men approached the vehicle, demanded money, and then opened fire, striking all three occupants. De La Rosa later died at a hospital, while the other two victims were critically injured.

“This was a ruthless and targeted attack that stole the life of a young woman and artist and inflicted profound lifelong trauma on her family and the two survivors,” LA County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said.

A 27-year-old man was arrested the same day of the shooting, and another 27-year-old was taken into custody the following day. A warrant has been issued for a third suspect, a 21-year-old. All three, residents of Northridge, face one felony count of murder and two felony counts of attempted second-degree robbery.

DELAROSA, who had over 40,000 Instagram followers, released a single in August titled “No Me Llames,” or “Don’t Call Me” in English. Her passing prompted an outpouring of grief on social media, including messages from Jimmy Humilde, founder of the record label Rancho Humilde.
