5A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2016 WORLD IN BRIEF major donor to the Democratic party and to Hil- lary Clinton’s presidential campaign. Associated Press Calif. oicer guns down man in ‘shooting stance’ EL CAJON, Calif. — The fatal police shoot- ing of a black man who drew something from his pocket and extended his hands in a “shoot- ing stance” happened about a minute after ofi- cers in a San Diego suburb arrived where a dis- traught man was reportedly walking in trafic, a police spokesman said Wednesday. It took police more than an hour to respond because of other calls, El Cajon Lt. Rob Ran- sweiler said. Oficers arrived at a parking lot next to a Mexican fast-food restaurant about 2:10 p.m. Tuesday, and Alfred Olango, who was unarmed, was shot about a minute later, police said. Mayor Bill Wells said he was concerned how quickly the shooting took place, though he said video taken by a bystander was enlightening and he didn’t think it was “tremendously com- plicated to igure out what happened.” Police said the man had refused to comply with instructions to remove a hand from his pants pocket and paced back and forth before rapidly drawing an object from the pocket. The item turned out to be an electronic cigarette device, police said late Wednesday. Some protesters said he was shot while his hands were raised in the air, though police dis- puted that and produced a single frame from the cellphone video to support their account. Oicials: Fireighter halted teen who killed father, shot 3 TOWNVILLE, S.C. — A volunteer ire- ighter stopped a teenager who shot three peo- ple outside a South Carolina elementary school after killing his father at their home, authorities said. The shooter wounded two students and a teacher Wednesday afternoon outside rural Townville Elementary but was apprehended before he could get inside the building, Ander- son County Sheriff John Skipper said. Fireighter Jamie Brock, a 30-year veteran of the Townville Volunteer Fire Department down the road from the school, “just took him down,” the sheriff said. Deputies arrived minutes later. Brock says he doesn’t want the attention. He “wants to remain humble and quiet about it” as he believes “he did nothing any of the other volunteer ireighters wouldn’t have done,” said Scott Stoller with Anderson County Emergency Management. Ammon Bundy’s lawyers seek to stop trial amid appeals PORTLAND — Ammon Bundy’s federal conspiracy trial resumed despite a motion from his lawyers seeking a postponement until a court rules on their appeals. Among other things, attorneys Marcus Mumford and J. Morgan Philpot have taken issue with U.S. District Court Judge Anna Brown’s order that the ownership of the Mal- heur National Wildlife Refuge is not on trial, and her notice to jurors that the federal govern- ment owns the refuge that Bundy and his fol- lowers occupied for 41 days last winter. Clinton vows to retaliate against foreign hackers AP Photo/Gregory Bull A man yells at demonstrators blocking a street during a protest Wednesday in El Cajon, Calif. Dozens of demonstrators on Wednesday protested the killing of Alfred Olango, a Ugandan refugee shot by an officer after authorities said he pulled an object from a pocket, pointed it and assumed a “shooting stance.” As the appeals await rulings by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the trial continued Thursday. Mumford says Bundy might take the witness stand if time permits. Bundy and six co-defendants have pleaded not guilty to conspiring to impede federal employees from doing their refuge jobs during the standoff. Colorado oicials to visit Oregon about proposed pipeline GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. — Western Colorado oficials will travel to Oregon next week to advocate for a project that would carry natural gas from Colorado to the Paciic Rim. The Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reports that then $5.3 billion project includes a pipeline from the Piceance basin to an export terminal in Coos Bay, Oregon. Next week, Rio Blanco County Commissioner Shawn Bolton, Mesa County Commissioner Rose Pugliese will visit Coos Bay, where they will invite Oregon oficials to come see the other side of the proposed pipe in western Colorado. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ruled against the project this spring, but local government oficials in Colorado and Oregon are hoping to urge the agency to reconsider and approve it this time. Congress tied up in partisan knots over the most basic duty WASHINGTON — Acutely partisan and all but dysfunctional, Congress has completed its most elementary task after an intense week- slong struggle, inalizing a deal to fund the gov- ernment just days ahead of a shutdown deadline. The legislation extends existing spending lev- els a mere 10 weeks, past Election Day, while inally addressing the Zika crisis with $1.1 billion and providing long-sought help for the residents of Flint, Michigan, as well as lood victims in Louisiana.

Peres died Wednesday from complications following a stroke. He was 93. Scores of world leaders are expected to attend Peres’ state funeral in Jerusalem on Fri- day, including President Barack Obama, for- mer President Bill Clinton and French President Francois Hollande. It is expected to be the larg- est such gathering in Israel since the funeral of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, who was assassi- nated by a Jewish nationalist in 1995. More than 60 private planes are expected to arrive ahead of the ceremony. Clinton landed in Israel Thursday morning. He arrived on the private jet of Israeli-American billionaire Haim Saban, according to a spokes- man for the Israel Airports Authority. Saban is a LISTINGS THE DAILY ASTORIAN A ing, the legislation passed the Senate on a 72-26 vote Wednesday and was backed by the House 342-85 in a late-night vote Wednesday. It was a conclusion in sight and within reach since lawmakers returned from their summer recess just after Labor Day. But with the Cap- itol awash in election-year politics and shad- owed by the contentious presidential race and engulfed in a ierce battle for control of the Sen- ate, the simplest task became a nearly impossi- ble heavy lift impeded by needless delays and bitter inger-pointing. Republicans, defending a fragile Senate majority and eager to get a handful of vulner- able incumbents back home to campaign for re-election, accused Minority Leader Harry Reid of holding up a deal to keep GOP lawmak- ers off the campaign trail. “The Democrats are determined to keep us here as long as they can,” groused one at-risk Republican senator, Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania. WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton is vow- ing anew to respond to foreign hacking the same as any other attack against the United States. When she openly blamed Russia for recent U.S. cyber break-ins, Donald Trump wondered whether to blame overseas governments or overweight hackers working from home. “She’s saying Russia, Russia, Russia, but I don’t — maybe it was. I mean, it could be Rus- sia, but it could also be China,” Trump said during this week’s presidential debate. “It could also be lots of other people. It also could be somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds, OK?” These are the unanswered questions about how the U.S. government should defend itself after an attack in the internet age: Whether to ire back, how to ire back, and at whom? The Obama administration is still writing its rulebook. A lingering challenge involves identify- ing whose hands were on the keyboard: Foreign hacker spies, cybercriminals, disgruntled insiders or bored teenagers? Skilled hackers can cover their tracks, use software tools traceable to others and feign their location across borders or continents. On Wednesday, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., said during a congressional hear- ing that it was “now the clear consensus of the intelligence community that the Russian gov- ernment was behind the hack of the Demo- cratic National Committee and not, as some suggested, somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds.” In annual ritual, Delhi struggles with dengue, chikungunya illnesses NEW DELHI — Poonam Devi moans in pain on the stretcher in the packed hospital emergency room, her ankles and wrists swollen, an IV hooked up to left arm to hydrate her. Patients like her, fevered, aching, unable to walk or sit on their own, are packing hospitals across New Delhi because of chikungunya, a mosquito-borne viral illness. In the Indian capi- tal alone, cases of chikungunya soared to 3,251 so far this year from just 64 last year, accord- ing to government data. Last year it was den- gue, another viral ailment transmitted by mos- quitoes, that infected thousands. The cycle of illness and packed hospital “fever clinics” plays out every year as monsoon rains ill puddles and open drains in the teeming city, creating swarms of mosquitoes that thrive in the warm, damp weather. Some years it’s mainly dengue; in others, it’s mostly chikungunya. The epidemics start promptly in August and stay for months, sick- ening tens of thousands and killing dozens, each year seeming to catch the government and pop- ulation unprepared for it. “Everyone in our neighborhood is getting it,” said Devi’s sister, Susheela, who goes by one name. She sat holding her sister’s hand inside Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, one of the city’s largest government-run hospitals. A por- tion of the hospital’s emergency room has been set aside for chikungunya patients like Devi.
