Brown University shooting leaves 2 dead, 9 injured as police search for killer
More than 400 law enforcement personnel were deployed on Saturday as police sought the suspect in a shooting at Brown University in Rhode Island that left two students dead and another nine people wounded at the Ivy League school, officials said, Reuters reported.
The Providence university remained in lockdown hours after a suspect with a firearm entered a building where students were taking exams. Officials do not believe there is any "specific, ongoing threat" from the suspect, Providence Mayor Brett Smiley said late Saturday, but with law enforcement agencies canvassing the area and conducting a manhunt, a shelter-in-place order for the campus and the surrounding neighborhood will remain for now.
"The shelter-in-place allows (law enforcement) to do their work in the first phase of the investigation," Smiley said, according to Reuters.
Palmer's cool finish warms the hearts of Chelsea fans
Chelsea fans treated Cole Palmer to a standing ovation as he called the shots in Saturday's 2-0 Premier League win over Everton, suggesting the Blues' stand-out player of the last two seasons is getting back to his best after an injury absence, Reuters reported.
Palmer showed the vision Chelsea have lacked in recent games, gesticulating to Wesley Fofana how to pass to Malo Gusto and Gusto's quick layoff allowed Palmer to dart into the Everton box and roll the ball past Jordan Pickford in the 21st minute.
With England coach Thomas Tuchel watching from the stands, it was Palmer's name that was cheered most by the home fans when the teams were announced before kick off, and they rose to their feet to applaud him off when he was substituted after 58 minutes as coach Enzo Maresca continued to ease his return to action, according to Reuters.
Raphinha double helps Barcelona overcome resilient Osasuna
Raphinha struck twice late in the second half as Barcelona secured a hard-fought 2-0 victory over a resolute Osasuna side on Saturday, extending their lead at the top of the LaLiga standings to seven points, Reuters reported.
Hansi Flick’s men now sit on 43 points, comfortably clear of second-placed Real Madrid, who have a game in hand and are set to play at Alaves on Sunday.
Barcelona dominated from the outset, enjoying an eye-watering 80% possession and firing 24 shots compared to just three from Osasuna, according to Reuters.
PSG move top with nervy 3-2 win at bottom club Metz
Paris St Germain moved provisionally top of Ligue 1 with a 3-2 win at bottom club Metz on Saturday where the champions twice had a two-goal cushion cut and Goncalo Ramos, Quentin Ndjantou and Desire Doue were all on the scoresheet for the visitors, Reuters reported.
PSG are on 36 points, two ahead of Lens who host Nice on Sunday while Metz remain bottom of the standings with 11 points.
PSG struggled to create any early chances against Metz who have the worst defensive record in the league this season, conceding 34 goals in their 15 previous games, but finally found a way through in the 31st minute, according to Reuters.
Arsenal get lucky break to go five points clear, Salah returns for Liverpool
Premier League leaders Arsenal needed two own goals, the second deep in stoppage time, to scrape a 2-1 home win over bottom club Wolverhampton Wanderers and open a five-point gap while earlier on Saturday Mohamed Salah put aside a tumultuous week to help Liverpool beat Brighton and Hove Albion 2-0, Reuters reported.
The table will show that Wolves remain cast adrift with two points from their opening 16 games, but they played well above their lowly standing and when Tolu Arokodare headed them level in the 90th minute Arsenal were stunned.
After defeat by Aston Villa last weekend, failure to beat Wolves at home would have blown the title race wide open, but when Bukayo Saka swung in a cross towards substitute Gabriel Jesus in the fourth minute of stoppage time, it flew in off the head of the unfortunate Yerson Mosquera, according to Reuters.
