Thomas Eric Duncan, the first person diagnosed with Ebola in the United States, died Wednesday, 10 days after he was admitted to a Texas hospital. His family wonders if the outcome would have been different if doctors had admitted Duncan to hospital on September 25, the first time he showed up with a fever and stomach pain? Now, A Dallas deputy has been hospitalized with possible symptoms of the virus, but there's "no risk" of Ebola, a Texas health official said Wednesday. The deputy, Sgt.

But in reality, the similarities are slim. Yes, the teen was black. And the officer was white. Yes, the officer fired several times. And it all unfolded in the St. Louis metro area. But the commonalities end there. In this case, the 18-year-old was armed, and he fired on the officer first, St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson said. The death comes on the heels of the Brown shooting two months ago in the suburb of Ferguson, and just ahead of a "Weekend of Resistance" in St. Louis, where activists will...
