BROOMFIELD, Colo. (KDVR) — A man who has a history with an accused shooter of a burrito spot in Broomfield explained what happened between the two of them in the past. Broomfield resident Pete Elliott said there are bullet holes in his home window. He said he was laying inches away when they came into his home last Saturday. “I dove off the bed, thought someone was so close in the noise, I thought there was like some of the sniper or something that got that close and just missed,” Elliott said. Elliott told FOX31 he instantly had a hunch about who the shooter could be.“I knew immediately,” he said. “I knew because of the stalking and the threats and the harassment for three years.” Sniper-like shots fired at buildings in Broomfield and Denver may be connected While he can’t definitively prove who pulled the trigger last Saturday, Elliott told FOX31 he believes it was Kenneth Fairchild, a man who he got a restraining order against almost two years ago.“We got a restrainin...Colorado Rockies' Elias Diaz named MLB All-Star Game MVP

LONDON — Nobody disputes artificial intelligence is the technology of the future — which makes Rishi Sunak’s pick for AI minister in the U.K. government a little unorthodox.Jonathan Berry, 53, is better known in Westminster as the 5th Viscount Camrose — a hereditary peer in the House of Lords whose title has been passed down the generations from father to son.There were “no castles,” Berry jokes of his upbringing, but as a child he would visit the family’s Hackwood Park estate, then owned by his great uncle Seymour Berry (the 2nd Viscount Camrose).The estate — a 17th-century mansion complete with 24 bedrooms, a Tudor-style banqueting hall, library, and riding stables — was sold off in the late 1990s. But the viscountcy, the fourth rank in the British peerage system — standing directly below an earl and above a baron — survives to this day. It was that title that allowed Berry to take his seat in the House of Lords last year, one of 92 hereditary peers who continue to sit in the...Orioles savor first All-Star Game experience: ‘Everything I ever imagined’

Adley Rutschman lowered himself into a squat, just as he was bound to do within a handful of hours to catch his Baltimore teammates. But he wore no catcher’s gear. In his left hand, he did not don a mitt but instead held a pen.Before taking batting practice ahead of Tuesday night’s All-Star Game at Seattle’s T-Mobile Park, a game the American League lost to the National League, 3-2, the Orioles’ catcher took a moment to speak with a pair of young fans, dropping down as he would in a game to meet them at eye level before signing autographs. In the nearest major league city to his hometown of Sherwood, Oregon, Rutschman was a popular figure throughout two days of events in which he and three teammates, outfielder Austin Hays and relievers Félix Bautista and Yennier Cano, savored their first All-Star experience.Typically Baltimore’s left fielder, Hays drew the start in center field for the American League, placed between the Texas Rangers’ Adoli...Historic LaFayette Hotel to reopen its doors after renovation
