NEW YORK (AP) — Authorities say at least 21 people were shot across New York City over the weekend. Four victims died.

Among those injured were a 10-year-old boy and a 25-year-old man. They were shot Saturday on Brooklyn’s Coney Island and are in stable condition.

Nine people were shot in Brooklyn, five in Manhattan, five in the Bronx, one in Queens and one on Staten Island.

Police are seeking tips from the public as they investigate.

About 600 new officers are graduating from the Police Academy on Monday. They will partner with veteran officers and be sent out to target the most violent, crime-ridden neighborhoods.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Police say an 11-year-old boy at a Boy Scout camp in San Diego has died from a gunshot wound.

Officer Matt Tortorella told The Associated Press that at 7:36 a.m. Monday police received a call that a boy had shot himself in the head at the camp on Fiesta Island.

Tortorella says police were investigating and did not know if the shooting was self-inflicted or accidental.

It’s not clear yet where the gun came from or how it got into the boy’s tent.

According to the Boy Scouts of America website, the organization offers a weeklong program in the summer where scouts can camp among sandy dunes, sail and earn merit badges.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Authorities in Cleveland say a man collapsed and died outside a courtroom minutes after a judge sentenced him to 60 days in jail for trying to restrain and kiss a 14-year-old girl.

The coroner’s office was expected to determine why 51-year-old Miguel Aybar died Wednesday morning.

Aybar was in handcuffs when he slumped to the floor in the hallway outside the courtroom.

Judge Michelle Denise Earley had sentenced Aybar after he was found guilty of a third-degree misdemeanor charge of unlawful restraint. He was accused of restraining the 14-year-old girl and trying to kiss her on the mouth.

SANFORD, N.C. (AP) — Authorities in North Carolina say a registered sex offender ran a home child care as a front for a child porn production operation involving a Special Forces soldier and other adults.

Harnett County investigators say Bailey Joe Mills ran the unlicensed child care from his home. Mills has three felony convictions involving sexual activity with children and was charged in January with raping a 13-year-old girl.

Authorities say there are at least 10 child victims.

Also arrested were Mills’ wife, 34-year-old Elizabeth Holland Mills; 29-year-old Sgt. 1st Class Jordan Everett Busse of Fort Bragg; 20-year-old Rashawn Rodriguez Drake Jackson; and 50-year-old Tommy Wall.

Bailey Joe Mills’ attorney, Mac Hunter, said he expected federal authorities would get involved. The other defendants could not immediately be reached for comment.

CINCINNATI (AP) — A former aide at a Cincinnati nursing home has been convicted of raping a 92-year-old resident who was confined to her bed and unable to communicate.

A judge on Monday found 22-year-old Samuel Onyenweaku guilty of the woman’s Nov. 24 rape at the Amber Park Nursing Home.

A prosecutor says the woman died in February from an unrelated condition.

A nursing supervisor testified that she had tried to enter the resident’s room, but the door was locked. When she finally opened it, she says she found the resident naked from the chest down and Onyenweaku in her private bathroom.

Onyenweaku was convicted of rape, felonious assault and patient abuse.

He could face 20 years in prison when he’s sentenced July 28.

STAMFORD, Conn. (AP) — Authorities say a Connecticut man who told his probation officer he wasn’t foolish enough to bring drugs into a courthouse had been hiding 19 bags of pot in his left sock.

Darren Shelley, of Stamford, is scheduled to return Monday to Stamford Superior Court on a charge of possession with intent to sell.

The 22-year-old Shelley reeked of marijuana when he met June 9 with his probation officer.

When the officer asked about it, Shelley allegedly said he was “not a fool” and “did not bring drugs into the court.”

But the officer says a pat down revealed the bags of pot.

Shelley is being held on $5,000 bond. He faces a possible revocation of his probation on charges of risk of injury to a minor.

PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. (AP) — A southwest Florida woman is facing charges after authorities say she branded her two children with a heated stick.

The Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office says 23-year-old Kayla R. Oxenham of Port Charlotte was arrested and charged with child neglect earlier this week. Officials say Oxenham heated a stick with a lighter and burned her children, ages 5 and 7, in order to mark them as her own. The woman reportedly promised the children ice cream after the burning.

Allegations of abuse were first reported in March to the Florida Department of Children and Families. The case was then turned over to the sheriff’s office.

Online jail records list Oxenham’s occupation as a medical assistant.

She was released on $15,000 bail Wednesday. The jail records didn’t list an attorney.

(AP)–The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says some of its staff in Atlanta may have been accidentally exposed to dangerous anthrax bacteria because of a safety problem at one of its labs.

Agency officials say the risk of infection is low, but that about 75 staff members were being monitored or given antibiotics as a precaution.

A statement from the agency says the problem occurred when bacteria samples that were not completely inactivated were moved from a higher level biosafety lab to a lower level one not designed to handle such samples.

The problem was discovered last Friday, when live anthrax bacteria were found on some materials being gathered for disposal. The statement says some of the anthrax may have become airborne the previous week.

BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore police say an officer has been accused of cutting the throat of a dog that had already been subdued after it was reported to have bitten a woman.

Police told a news conference Wednesday that the dog later died from the injury. The animal was initially thought to be a stray, but later was determined to have escaped from its home.

The alleged attack happened Saturday after police responded to a report of a woman being bitten. Deputy Commissioner Dean Palmere said officers gained control of the animal with a dog pole and an officer used a knife to cut the dog’s throat.

Late Wednesday, Detective Jeremy Silbert issued a statement identifying that policeman as Officer Jeffrey Bolger.

Silbert says Bolger was charged with animal cruelty. It was not known if he had a lawyer.

FARMINGTON, Utah (AP) — A Utah teenager has pleaded guilty in both juvenile and adult court to intentionally and knowingly stabbing his two younger brothers to death as part of a plea deal.

Aza Ray Vidinhar, 16, agreed to a deal Wednesday in a court in Farmington that calls for him to serve time for one count of murder in juvenile detention until he turns 21. At that time, he’ll be transferred into the adult court system and serve a sentence of 15 years to life in adult jail.

The Associated Press did not previously name the boy because of his age, but it is now using his name because he has been charged and pleaded guilty as an adult.

Vidinhar’s younger brothers, 4 and 10, were found dead in May 2013.
