And the defendant’s fate may rest largely on three human teeth allegedly found on the bloody pavement where the deadly shootout occurred.Edward Twine, 27, was arrested and charged in August 2021 with robbing and murdering Gebrezghi, as well as being a felon in possession of a firearm. Prosecutors content that Twine and another man, whose identity remains a mystery, ran up to Gebrezghi with masks and guns, kicking off a chaotic series of events that ended with Gebrezghi grabbing his pistol and shooting on robber in the mouth before being killed by a bullet to the heart.The three teeth were linked to Twine by a DNA test, and he showed up to San Francisco General Hospital later that evening, with a...Condominium in Milpitas sells for $1.5 million

No need for Bryce Eldridge to use his scholarship offer to play baseball at Alabama as leverage for a contract with the Giants.After being selected with the No. 16 pick in the first round Sunday night to pursue his dream of being a two-way player in the big leagues, Eldridge made it clear Monday he’d bypass his college commitment.“I will be signing,” Eldridge said in a teleconference with Bay Area media. “I had two good options and I’m blessed to be where I’m at right now.”Eldridge, 18, is a 6-foot-7, 223-pound first baseman/outfielder and pitcher from James Madison High in Vienna, Va. with prodigious power in both areas. Throws right, bats left. Kind of like, well, you know, Shohei Ohtani, who checks in at 6-4, 209 and has lit up major league baseball in both areas since he arrived from Japan in 2018.Dubbed “American Shohei” or “American Ohtani” in some quarters, Eldridge isn’t shying away from the comparison.&...San Rafael PD releases surveillance photos of 2 women accused of stealing dog

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The delivery of humanitarian aid to Syria’s rebel-held northwest from neighboring Turkey is virtually certain to get a green light to continue from the U.N. Security Council — but the big question is for how long.The council’s current authorization for aid deliveries through the Bab al-Hawa crossing is set to expire Monday, but the council has two rival extension resolutions before it to vote on. A Russian resolution would continue aid deliveries for six months and a Brazil-Switzerland resolution backed by most council members and Secretary-General Antonio Guterres would authorize a 12-month extension.The vote had been scheduled for Monday but was delayed until Tuesday morning.Brazil, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates are seeking a compromise with Russia on the time frame and a vote could take place later Monday or Tuesday, diplomats said, speaking on condition of anonymity because discussions have been private.The delivery of aid to the area has increas...2023 All-Star Game Starting Lineups
