Storm snarls roads in South
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A snowstorm blanketed the South yesterday, with drivers warned to stay off slippery roads as officials worked to clear a mess of wrecks and downed power lines.
Nearly a foot of snow had fallen in parts of western North Carolina, and nearly 10 inches had fallen in some areas north of Memphis, Tenn. A central Tennessee woman was killed when a tree weighed down with ice crashed into her mobile home, a fire department official said.
To the northeast, the Washington-Baltimore area was preparing for 4 to 8 inches of snow. About a foot of snow was reported in the Richmond area, the National Weather Service said. In northern Virginia, the storm caused several multi-vehicle crashes along Interstate 81, state police said. Four people were hospitalized with injuries that were not life-threatening. - AP
Fire kills at least five in Brooklyn
NEW YORK - A deadly fire tore through a building that housed Guatemalan immigrants, gnawing gaping holes in its backside, partially collapsing the roof, and killing at least five people yesterday.
The early-morning blaze at the Brooklyn building is being investigated as a possible case of arson because it started behind the door of the first-floor entrance to the building, New York City Fire Commissioner Salvatore Cassano said.
Four people in the building were injured, including an infant and an older child who were tossed out the window by a woman frantically trying to save them. The infant was in critical condition with a fractured skull after bystanders below failed to catch him, officials and witnesses said. The other child landed on an awning. - AP
Elsewhere:
There was a familiar voice booming into the microphone during the Duke-Georgetown basketball game - that of Barack Obama. The president, attending as a fan, provided about seven minutes of nationally televised hoops commentary in the second half of yesterday's matchup at the Verizon Center near the White House. Seventh-ranked Georgetown topped No. 8 Duke, 89-77.
The Washington Times has appointed Sam Dealey, 36, a journalist and fellow at the conservative Hoover Institution, as its next top editor, the newspaper said yesterday.
