Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 09:11:56 GMT

D.C.’s embattled 911 call center needs to be more transparent with the public, particularly in incidents during which mistakes were made, to help regain public trust, auditor Kathy Patterson said Thursday.A new report, a second status update on how the Office of Unified Communications is faring in implementing recommendations from a 2021 audit, said that while the agency is making some progress, more transparency is needed.In making the call for additional accountability, Patterson released a 911 call from an October 2022 incident. The caller explained a roommate was on the floor and not responding to calls for his name.But over the two-plus minute conversation, the operator never asked if the person was breathing, Patterson said.

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 09:11:56 GMT

NAPLES, Italy (AP) — Harry Kane became England’s leading scorer of all time on Thursday — and his record-setting goal just had to come from the penalty spot.Kane tugged on his England jersey and roared with delight in an emotional celebration after converting a spot kick during the 2-1 win over Italy in European Championship qualifying.It was his 54th goal for the national team, one more than Wayne Rooney.And the nature of the goal wasn’t lost on the Tottenham striker.“It had to be a penalty, of course,” Kane said, a nod to him missing from the spot late in a 2-1 loss to France in the World Cup quarterfinals last year.Rooney scored his 53 England goals from 2003-2018. Kane made his England debut in 2015 and has reached the landmark having played 39 fewer games than his fellow striker.“I knew it wouldn’t take long but that was quick,” tweeted Rooney, who is still Manchester United’s record scorer. “Great man, unbelievable goalscorer and an England legend. Congrats Harry.”...

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 09:11:56 GMT

BRUSSELS — European leaders are suddenly falling over each other to get to China.Amid growing concern that Chinese leader Xi Jinping is hardening his support for Russia’s war in Ukraine, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced on Thursday he will fly to Beijing for talks next week. Emmanuel Macron, the French president, will follow on a longer-planned trip on April 4. A succession of European Union leaders used a summit in Brussels to raise the alarm about China’s ostentatious backing for Vladimir Putin this week, warning that they could not stand by while Beijing and Moscow cement an alliance that risks tipping the world deeper into crisis. Their concerns followed Xi’s high-profile trip to the Russian capital, which shored up the position of his longstanding friend, Putin.During a private session in Brussels, Macron urged his colleagues to redouble their efforts to stop China from deepening its support for Russia’s invasion. “The French president underli...
