MERCER, Pa. (AP) — A Pennsylvania man being sentenced on rape charges has blamed his 10-year-old victim for initiating sex with him.

49-year-old Merrell “Moe” Sanders was sentenced Thursday to 10 to 20 years in prison. He pleaded no contest to two counts of rape for repeated contact with the girl starting in 2007.

Sanders’ attorney, Randall Hetrick, says the case “can’t be much worse.” He says he believes his client is having a hard time acknowledging his crimes “because the facts are so horrible.”

Mercer County Judge Daniel Wallace warned Sanders that he’ll likely serve the maximum 20-year sentence if he can’t acknowledge wrongdoing. The state parole board won’t grant his release if he continues to deny the crimes.

HOLLY SPRINGS, Miss. (AP) — Residents of northern Mississippi and across the Southeast were beginning to take stock after fierce storms that killed at least six across the region whipped through.

The deadly spring-like storms killed three in Mississippi, two others in Tennessee and one in Arkansas before the worst passed Wednesday night.

Mulester Johnson says he and relatives were inside his house in Holly Springs, Mississippi, when the storm hit.

He says the wind tore the back of his house from its foundation and multiple sheds were missing afterward. Trees rested atop several trucks on his property, and slabs of brick walls were strewn throughout his yard.

Officials say a 7-year-old boy died in Holly Springs, Mississippi, when the storm picked up and tossed the car he was riding in.

ESTILL SPRINGS, Tenn. (AP) — Officials say a 12-year-old boy has fatally shot an 11-year-old classmate in southern Tennessee.

Franklin County Sheriff’s spokesman Chris Guess said Monday that Sienna Dusk Owens was shot in the back Saturday in the garage of the boy’s home in Estill Springs. Guess says investigators are gathering evidence and will present findings to the district attorney, who will decide whether to pursue charges.

He says the boy’s mother was home when the shooting occurred.

Guess said first responders found the girl alive and performed CPR while taking her to a hospital. She was pronounced dead on arrival.

According to an obituary, Owens participated in soccer, cheerleading, basketball and track. Her funeral is scheduled for Wednesday.

Guess says grief counselors were being made available at Owens’ middle school.

NEW YORK (AP) — Health officials are seeing an increases of a rare illness called rabbit fever that was beaten back decades ago.

In the last two decades, health officials saw an average of only about 125 cases each year of the illness — known to doctors as tularemia. But the government reported Thursday that there have already been 235 cases this year. That’s the most since 1984.

Officials aren’t sure why cases are up, but speculate that it may have to do with weather conditions that likely helped rodents — and the bacteria — thrive in some Western states.

Insects pick up the bacteria from rabbits and other small mammals and then spread it when they bite humans. It’s treatable with antibiotics.

DALLAS (AP) — Police have arrested a 13-year-old girl who is accused of posting a threat to shoot up her Dallas middle school on Instagram.

The teen told police that she found the photo online.

Police say the girl, whose name hasn’t been released, faces a juvenile charge of making a terrorist threat. Conviction carries penalties of up to 10 years in prison.

School officials were informed of the photo Monday night. Patrols were increased Tuesday.

YORK, Pa. (AP) — Emergency workers in Pennsylvania got an unpleasant surprise when they wheeled a patient out of a home to their ambulance, only to find it wasn’t there.

Police in York say 21-year-old Leonard Eugene Smith took the vehicle for a joy ride Friday before ditching it. They say an in-vehicle camera captured his actions and a tracking device led them to the ambulance.

Smith is charged with felony theft and a misdemeanor count of recklessly endangering another person. He’s jailed on $75,000 bail.

The patient, who was having breathing problems, got to the hospital without much delay after another ambulance was called.
