4A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 2017 WORLD IN BRIEF Associated Press Shootings in Northern California kill 3, wound kids at school RED BLUFF, Calif. — Authorities say three people have been killed in shootings today at multiple locations in rural Northern California, and the shooter has been killed by law enforce- ment. Students also were shot and wounded at an elementary school. It’s not clear if the shooter is included among the dead. Tehama County Assistant Sheriff Phil John- ston tells a TV station in the city of Chico that officers are investigating at least five crime scenes in and around the school in Rancho Tehama Reserve, about 130 miles north of Sacramento. Jeanine Quist, an administrative assistant with the Corning Union Elementary School District, says no one was killed at the school but a “num- ber” of students were shot and wounded. Florida police hunt house by house for killer after 4th slaying TAMPA, Fla. — Tampa police blockaded a neighborhood and searched with a SWAT team and dogs for a possible serial killer today after a fourth person was shot dead for no apparent reason. Residents of the Seminole Heights neighbor- hood reported hearing shots just before 5 a.m. Officers quickly moved in, and found the body of Ronald Felton, 60, who had been walking across the street when a gunman came up behind him and fired, interim Police Chief Brian Dugan said. “Our officers responded within seconds,” Dugan said, enabling them to quickly set up a perimeter around about a square mile area. SWAT officers could be seen patrolling the streets with rifles as they moved through yards. “I believe that this person lives in this neigh- borhood,” Dugan added as he spoke with report- ers at the scene. “And we need everyone’s coop- eration; we need everyone to pay attention to what’s been going on.” Dugan said that until his detectives can deter- mine otherwise, Felton’s shooting will be treated as if it’s related to last month’s 10-day spree where three people were slain. The previous three victims were alone and had gotten off a bus in the neighborhood when they were gunned down at night. None was robbed. “This has got to stop,” Mayor Bob Buckhorn told a news conference. “We will hunt this person down until we find him.” Trump Jr. messaged with WikiLeaks during 2016 campaign WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s oldest son released a series of pri- vate Twitter exchanges between himself and WikiLeaks during and after the 2016 election, including pleas from the website to publicize its leaks. Donald Trump Jr.’s release of the mes- sages on Twitter came hours after The Atlantic first reported them Monday. In the exchanges — some of them around the time that the web- site was releasing the stolen emails from Dem- ocrat Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman — WikiLeaks praises his father’s positive com- ments about WikiLeaks and asks Trump Jr. to release his father’s tax returns to the site. The revelations are sure to increase calls in Congress to have Trump Jr. testify publicly as part of several committee probes into Russian inter- ference in the 2016 election. And they add a new element to the investigations that have been prob- ing for months whether Trump’s campaign col- THE DAILY ASTORIAN T UESDAY E VENING A (2) (-) (-) (6) (-) (8) (9) (10) (12) (13) (-) (20) (-) (29) (30) (31) (32) (34) (35) (36) (38) (39) (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50) (51) (52) (53) (54) (56) (57) (58) (61) (63) (64) (65) (162) L KATU KOMO KING KOIN KIRO KGW KRCW KOPB KPTV KPDX KCPQ TBS KZJO ESPN ESPN2 NICK DISN FAM FMC LIFE ROOT FS1 SPIKE COM HIST A&E TLC DISC NGEO TNT AMC USA FOOD HGTV FX CNN FNC CNBC BRAV TCM SYFY RFD (2) (4) (5) (-) (7) (-) (3) (10) (12) (-) (13) (20) (22) (29) (30) (31) (32) (34) (35) (36) (38) (39) (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50) (51) (52) (53) (54) (56) (57) (58) (61) (63) (64) (65) (162) 6 luded in any way with the Russian government. In an intelligence assessment released last Jan- uary, the NSA, CIA and FBI concluded that Rus- sian military intelligence provided hacked infor- mation from the DNC and “senior Democratic officials” to WikiLeaks. WikiLeaks has denied that Russia was the source of emails it released, including those from Clinton’s campaign chair- man, John Podesta. Sessions defends himself to Congress, says he never lied WASHINGTON — Attorney General Jeff Sessions, in a raised voice and defiant tone, strongly defended himself today against alle- gations that he had misled members of Con- gress about his knowledge of communications between Russians and associates of President Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign. “In all of my testimony, I can only do my best to answer all of your questions as I under- stand them and to the best of my memory,” Ses- sions told the House Judiciary Committee. “But I will not accept, and reject, accusations that I have ever lied under oath. That is a lie.” Sessions, who as an Alabama senator led a foreign policy advisory council for the Trump campaign, has been dogged since January by his evolving explanations about his own foreign con- tacts during the campaign and about how much he knew of communication between Trump asso- ciates and Russian government intermediaries. Those questions have only deepened since the guilty plea last month of George Papadopoulos, a former Trump adviser who served on the coun- cil Sessions chaired and who proposed arrang- ing a meeting between Trump and Russian Presi- dent Vladimir Putin. As well, another aide, Carter Page, told Congress in private statements that he had alerted Sessions about a meeting he planned in Russia during the campaign. Sessions said he had no recollection of the conversation with Page. Papadopoulos was arrested by the FBI and pleaded guilty to lying to authorities about his own foreign contacts during the campaign. The oversight hearing came one day after the Justice Department said Sessions had directed federal prosecutors to look into whether a special counsel might be merited to investigate allega- tions that the Clinton Foundation benefited from an Obama-era uranium transaction involving a Russia-backed company. Sessions says he has ‘no reason to doubt’ Moore accusers WASHINGTON — Attorney General Jeff Sessions voiced no skepticism today of accounts by women accusing Roy Moore of groping or pursuing romantic relationships with them when they were teens, and hinted the Justice Depart- ment might look into allegations against the besieged Republican Alabama Senate candidate. “I have no reason to doubt these young women,” Sessions told a House committee. His words seemed certain to carry heft in Alabama, where he was a longtime GOP sena- tor until becoming President Donald Trump’s attorney general this year and remains one of that state’s most influential Republican voices. Answering questions before the House Judi- ciary Committee, Sessions didn’t rule out a fed- eral probe into the charges. His remarks came as House Speaker Paul Ryan joined the growing chorus of Washington Republicans calling on Moore to drop out of the race. Republicans fear damage from two poten- tial outcomes should he remain a candidate: Moore wins and GOP senators are tainted by association with a colleague accused of molest- ing teen-agers, or he loses the Dec. 12 election to a Democrat. “These allegations are credible,” Ryan, R-Wis., told reporters today. “If he cares about the values and people he claims to care about then he should step aside.” Moore is showing no sign of quitting, deny- ing allegations by two women that he molested them and sending out fundraising emails empha- sizing his stance as a maverick battling establish- ment politicians. Iran to probe state-built homes destroyed by deadly quake SARPOL-E-ZAHAB, Iran — Iranian Pres- ident Hassan Rouhani launched an investiga- tion today into why government housing built by his hard-line predecessor collapsed while others withstood a powerful earthquake near the border with Iraq that killed more than 530 people. In the Kurdish town of Sarpol-e-Zahab, which was reconstructed in the decades since the 1980s war with Iraq, the outer walls of apartment com- plexes tumbled away in the magnitude 7.3 earth- quake Sunday night. The housing was built as a part of the “Mehr” or “kindness” project of for- mer President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Aside from the 530 people killed in Iran, 7,817 were injured, the state-run IRNA news agency reported. Health Minister Hassan Ghaziza- deh Hashemi, who visited Kermanshah today, warned that the death toll probably would rise. Initial Iranian government estimates sug- gest the quake destroyed 12,000 apartments and free-standing homes, and damaged another 15,000. Some immediately pointed to the Mehr homes. About 2 million units were built in Iran, includ- ing scores in Sarpol-e Zahab, as part of a populist program by Ahmadinejad, who also offered cash payouts and other incentives to appease the pub- lic while Iran faced crippling economic sanctions over its nuclear program. Vicki Anne Palo Vicki Anne Palo was born October 6, 1960 in Portland, Oregon to John and Roberta McLean Palo. Vicki spent the first ten years of her life in Portland, before moving to Astoria, Oregon following her parents purchase of Palo’s Department Store. Her sisters Lisa and Kristen will fondly remember working at the store with her, playing around while taking inventory and counting Levi’s. She graduated from Astoria High School in 1978 and continued working for the family businesses, Butches for Sir in Astoria, Oregon and The Outrigger in Long Beach, Washington. After years of working for the family businesses, she began the most cherished role of her life, becoming a mother. Most of all, Vicki lived her life for her family. She was an encouraging, doting mother who loved unconditionally. One could feel the sense of fulfillment and pride Vicki had when surrounded by her daughters. And most recently, she was overjoyed with the anticipation of the upcoming February birth of her first grandchild, Neymar Macareno. Together with her partner, Rip Puckett, she enjoyed walking their dog Eli, going to Mariners games, going clam digging at the beach, and spending time at the pool. Vicki had a way of making everyone feel so loved and appreciated in such a genuine, sincere way. She radiated love and positivity no matter the circumstance. Laughter came easy to Vicki, her smile was contagious, she had a kind heart and a nice word for anyone and everyone. She would never let a birthday go by without a phone call and the full “Happy Birthday” song. She always had something personal and sentimental to give you, because she kept everything. Just give her a couple of minutes in the basement archives and she would always reemerge with whatever you needed; heartfelt momentos that made you feel special, even if they were things you wished she never kept! What we will miss the most about Vicki are her hugs, the way she would drop everything to make a memory, and her bright blue eyes with her smile that lit up a room. When we think of Vicki, we will know that there is a piece of her heart and spirit with each and every one of us, reminding us to show compassion, smile at a stranger and cherish your loved ones. Vicki was the daughter of the late John A. Palo, and is survived by her mother Roberta Ryding; three daughters and two sons-in-law, Marissa and Andy Hudkins of Long beach, WA., Brittany McGinnis of Seattle, WA., Tayla and Jair Macareno of Astoria, OR., two sisters and one brother-in-law, Lisa and Roy Allgeyer and Kristen Sherman, four nieces, Terra Duey, Jenni Pinkstaff, Megan and Brooke Sherman; two great-nieces, Emme and Aila Duey. Vicki also leaves behind her partner, Robert “Rip” Puckett, as well as the late Dale McGinnis’s three daughters whom she loved as her own, Brandi Helligso of Astoria, OR., Misty Guest of Bend, OR., Cheri Cheatam of Lawrenceville, GA., and thirteen children who fondly referred to her as Nana Vicki. A celebration of life will be held at 2 p.m. Saturday, November 18 at the Elks Lodge in Astoria. Memorial contributions can be made to the local “Arm in Arm Fund” to help cancer patients access support and follow-up treatment that would otherwise not be accessible due to financial constraints. Examples of which include: self-image enhancing accessories, e.g. wigs/bras; transportation to/from treatment.
