LONDON (AP) — The victims of Wednesday's attack in London are being remembered. Thousands of people gathered Thursday night in Trafalgar Square for a candlelit vigil to honor the victims and their families and to show London's unity.

The driver then fatally stabbed a police officer outside Parliament before being shot dead.

U.S. Jewish groups have welcomed the breakthrough in the case. Israeli police say his motives are still unclear.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — A Texas college student stranded for five days near the Grand Canyon says she was making farewell videos for her family as she grew desperate for help.

She says she was heading to a hiking trail but was led astray by her maps app and wound up in the middle of nowhere with no gas.
