hockey game

PAWTUCKET, R.I. (AP) — Authorities say the person who opened fire during a youth hockey game at an ice rink in Rhode Island targeted and killed an ex-wife and one son. Pawtucket Chief of Police Tina Goncalves says the victims were the shooter’s ex-wife Rhonda Dorgan and adult son Aidan Dorgan.

The shooter injured three others during the shooting Monday afternoon in Pawtucket, among them Goncalves says was the shooter’s ex-wife’s parents and a family friend. Police have identified the shooter as 56-year-old Robert Dorgan, who also went by the name Roberta Esposito. Police say Dorgan died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.

No DNA match

on gloves

(AP) — Investigators in the Nancy Guthrie disappearance say DNA from gloves did not match any entries in a national database. CODIS is a valuable storehouse of DNA taken from crime suspects or people with convictions.

Any hits could identify possible suspects in the Guthrie saga, which reached a 17th day Tuesday. The 84-year-old mother of NBC “Today” co-anchor Savannah Guthrie was reported missing from her Tucson-area home on Feb. 1 after spending the previous night with family.

Investigators are also working with experts to try to locate Nancy Guthrie by somehow detecting her heart pacemaker.

Arrest at

US Capitol

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Capitol Police in Washington, D.C., have arrested an 18-year-old man after he ran toward the west side of the Capitol Building armed with a shotgun. Capital Police Chief Michael Sullivan said Carter Camacho of Smyrna, Georgia, parked a Mercedes SUV near the Capitol on Tuesday, got out and ran “several hundred yards” toward the building before officers intercepted him and ordered him to the ground.

Sullivan says the gunman was wearing a tactical vest and gloves and had a Kevlar helmet and gas mask in the vehicle. The shotgun was loaded and the man had additional rounds on him, the chief says. Congress is not in session.
