DANNEMORA, N.Y. (AP) — Officials admit they have "no information" on the two convicted killers who escaped from an upstate New York maximum-security prison last weekend. They expanded the search to neighboring Vermont on Wednesday, but New York State Police Superintendent Joseph D'Amico says, "I have no information on where they are or what they're doing, to be honest with you." Another search started Wednesday night that's closer to the Clinton Correctional Facility, where the men escaped.
DETROIT (AP) — Acura says some 48,000 of its SUVs could have a problem with their automatic emergency braking system. Acura says the braking system could mistakenly read an iron fence or a metal guardrail as a car that's in front of the SUV, and it could automatically apply the brakes. Acura is recalling its MDX and RLX SUVs made in 2014 and 2015.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — The Mexican government says it regrets the decision by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to sign into law an $800 million border security package that will mean more state troopers, cameras and a spy plane to patrol the U.S. state's 1,200-mile border with Mexico. One of the provisions will toughen punishments for convicted human traffickers. Mexico's Foreign Relations Department says the new law will "promote division between our societies, and runs contrary to the principles and values governing the U.S.-Mexico bilateral relationship."
CHARDON, Ohio (AP) — Three men have been indicted on aggravated murder charges for a contract killing nine years ago in northeast Ohio in which the hit man went to the wrong house and killed a man with the same name as the intended target. Authorities say a hit man was hired in 2006 to kill Daniel Ott, who was willing to testify about a stolen car operation. The hit man shot and killed Ott after a struggle, but he broke into the wrong house and killed the wrong Daniel Ott.
