CHICAGO (AP) — A medical examiner is planning to release the results of Prince's autopsy tomorrow. That's according to a person with knowledge of the plan. A law enforcement official who is close to the investigation told the AP today that tests show Prince died of an opioid overdose. The 57-year-old singer was found dead April 21 at his Minneapolis-area estate. Investigators have been reviewing whether an overdose was to blame and whether he was prescribed drugs in the weeks before his death.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — President Barack Obama says Americans cannot be tempted to retreat from world conflicts, but should push leaders to continue to engage with allies. Obama says isolationism offers a "false comfort." He says Pearl Harbor, the Sept. 11 attacks and recent terrorist attacks in the U.S. prove that "oceans alone cannot protect us." Obama went to the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado today to deliver the commencement address.
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley says she wishes Donald Trump communicated differently because bad things result from divisive rhetoric, as evidenced by last June's massacre in Charleston. The Republican governor says the man who's charged in the killings at a black church was motivated by divisive speech. Police have said Dylann Roof wanted to start a race war. Haley -- who endorsed Marco Rubio in her state's primary -- says she has vocally criticized Trump because "I know what that rhetoric can do. I saw it happen."
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A 19-year-old Indianapolis man has been charged with killing three people over four days. And authorities say he was inspired by the horror movie "The Purge" -- in which there's one night a year in which all crime is legal. A prosecutor says the attacks seemed to be "100 percent random."
PARIS (AP) — The Louvre (loov) museum in Paris says it will be closed tomorrow to remove artworks from rooms threatened by rising water from the Seine (sehn) River. The art will be moved upstairs. The museum's most famous painting, Leonardo da Vince's "Mona Lisa," is staying put on an upper floor. Floods have inundated parts of France, Germany and Belgium this week, killing six people and trapping thousands in homes or cars.
