The body of a 10-year-old girl who went missing after being swept into New Jersey's Passaic River was found July 31 after a two-day search, officials said.
Passaic Mayor Hector Lora said crews recovered the girl's body in the river south of the Market Street Bridge shortly before 7 p.m. Friday, July 31. The child was identified as Milian Dulan, according to PIX11.
The discovery came after emergency crews searched nearly 9 miles of the Passaic River using boats, sonar equipment, drones, helicopters and cadaver dogs. The search began July 29 after three children entered the water near a boat ramp at Pulaski Park in Passaic, New Jersey, and were swept away by the current.
One child, an 11-year-old girl, was able to get out of the river on her own, officials said. The bodies of her 10-year-old brother, identified by PIX11 as Michael Klenk, and Dulan were later recovered, officials said.
Authorities were preparing to end the search for the night Friday when a couple living near the Market Street Bridge reported seeing something in the river from their apartment window, CBS News reported.

Tarik Skubal is headed to the Los Angeles Dodgers, in a **** anic shift at the MLB trade deadline.
The Detroit Tigers are finalizing a trade to send the two-time reigning American League Cy Young Award winner to Los Angeles, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan and the New York Post's Jon Heyman.
Reportedly going back to the Tigers are top 100 outfield prospect Zyhir Hope, pitching prospect River Ryan and pitching prospect Brady Smith.
The deal is a pure rental, as Skubal is set to hit free agency after this season. He is expected to command a deal well into the nine figures, likely larger Yoshinobu Yamamoto's 12-year, $325 million deal that currently stands as the high water mark in total money for MLB pitchers.
The deal ends a nine-year tenure in the Detroit organization for Skubal, who was drafted in the ninth round of the 2018 MLB Draft and soon developed into a high-octane lefty arm. Every season up to 2026 saw him grow more refined to the point he was carrying the crown of MLB's top pitcher entering this year.

Sumit Rai said he received a phone call no parent wants to receive after his 10-year-old son was swept into the ocean at California's Seabright State Beach.
"My son [called and] told me, 'Dad, I drowned. I went unconscious.' I'm listening to him, and he thinks he is going to die," Rai shared on Fox News Live.
Nathaniel was standing on the wet sand near the shoreline when a wave knocked him down and pulled him roughly 15 yards into deep water.

Seabright State Beach was under a high surf advisory at the time. According to California State Parks, swell conditions generated 4- to 6-foot waves, with sets occasionally reaching 10 feet.

Middle East turmoil, centered on the U.S. war with Iran, is playing havoc with world energy markets. An ongoing dispute over access to the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of world oil and natural gas supply is shipped, is causing prices to surge. This is a boon for South America's oil industry, particularly Suriname's emerging petroleum boom, which was delayed by conflicting drilling results and seismic data. The former Dutch colony is on the cusp of becoming South America's next major oil-producing nation.
Since 2019, Suriname's government in the capital Paramaribo has hungrily eyed Guyana's booming petroleum sector, which delivered a massive economic windfall for the former British colony. Five major oil discoveries in offshore Block 58, which started in 2020 with the Maka Central-1 exploration well, confirmed the presence of commercially exploitable hydrocarbons in Suriname's portion of the offshore Guyana-Suriname Basin.
After a series of delays, beginning in 2022, due to mismatched drilling results and seismic data along with a high gas-to-oil ratio, TotalEnergies, the operator of Block 58, approved a final investment decision (FID). TotalEnergies, which holds a 50% working interest in offshore Block 58, and 50% partner APA Corporation approved the development of the deepwater GranMorgu project. This changed the project's ownership structure. Forty percent was retained by the operator TotalEnergies with another 40% retained by APA, and the remainder granted to Staatsolie.
The state-controlled energy company's acquisition was in accordance with Staatsolie's rights set out in the production-sharing contract (PSC) for Block 52. The company used a $1.6 billion loan from a banking consortium and a March 2025 bond issue to finance the acquisition. Staatsolie's share of GranMorgu will multiply the earnings delivered to Paramaribo, which has been battling an economic crisis since 2021. Indeed, the situation was so severe that rioting engulfed parts of the capital and parliament was stormed by protestors in 2023.
GranMorgu, which will come online in 2028, is a game changer for an economically challenged Suriname. The project's floating production, storage and offloading unit (FPSO) vessel, on completion, will have capacity of 220,000 barrels per day.

LONDON (AP) — Icelandic coast guards and special forces seized a ship operated by a group founded by anti-whaling activist Paul Watson and detained its crew, officials in the Arctic island nation said Saturday.
The Icelandic Coast Guard said the crew of whaling ship Hvalur 9 requested **** istance on Thursday evening because they believed their safety was under threat from the protest vessel Bandero. It said the Bandero ignored coast guards' instructions to leave Icelandic waters, and later an order to stop its engines.
Coast guards and the police special forces Viking Squad boarded the vessel around midnight on Thursday and detained its crew. Watson was not aboard.
The Captain Paul Watson Foundation confirmed in a statement that the vessel had been seized. It said the 21 crew members were being detained aboard the ship without their phones.
The ship arrived Friday in Reykjavik, Iceland's capital, and police have taken over the investigation, the coast guard agency said. Icelandic national broadcaster RUV reported that police will seek to deport the crew and ban them from returning to Iceland.

Management attributes record results to a decade-long strategy of diversifying revenue streams to mute cyclicality, reducing reliance on any single funding source or customer cohort.
Performance was driven by broad-based organic growth across vacuum trucks and specialty equipment, complemented by the successful integration of the New Way and Mega acquisitions.
The Environmental Solutions Group (ESG) benefited from proactive price-cost management and the 'Build More Parts' initiative, which focuses on vertical integration of parts production.
Strategic diversification has resulted in a durable revenue profile where publicly funded mechanisms are spread across water taxes, refuse fees, and international budgets, with U.S. water taxes representing less than 15% of total sales.

The father of a 10-year-old rescued from pounding surf off the California coast in a dramatic scene captured on video says he is beyond grateful to the teenage lifeguard who saved his son.
"He ran into that water despite those conditions that are deadly. You have 10 foot waves; you have riptides and currents coming in," Sumit Rai told The ****** ociated Press on Wednesday. "It is not safe for him to go into that water. So he's risking his own safety."
Rai's son Nathaniel was standing in shallow water when he lost his footing and was pulled into the ocean Saturday by powerful swells that suddenly came ashore at Seabright Beach in Santa Cruz, about 60 miles (about 100 kilometers) down the coast from San Francisco. Rai, who was in his home city of Dallas, said he heard about what happened when he spoke to his kids on the phone that evening.
"My son told me that he drowned and my son told me that he went unconscious," he said. "He was very subdued, still in a state of shock."
By the next morning, Rai had watched the video of the rescue that has since caught the attention of President Donald Trump.

CHICAGO (AP) — A former Illinois sheriff's deputy won't get an early medical release from his two-decade prison sentence for killing Sonya Massey inside her home after the Black woman called 911 about a possible prowler, state officials decided Friday.
Sean Grayson had been diagnosed with colon cancer prior to the 2024 shooting, and his attorney noted in January that the cancer had advanced to his liver and lungs.
The three-member Illinois Prisoner Review Board voted unanimously Friday to deny Grayson's application for early medical release, Liz Mitchell, a board spokesperson, said in an email.
Grayson, who is white, was convicted in October of second-degree murder for Massey's killing, a case that sparked protests over systemic racism and a U.S. Department of Justice review.
Body camera footage showed Grayson and another deputy enter Massey's home in Springfield, Illinois. Minutes later, Grayson shot the 36-year-old single mother in the face as she moved a pot of hot water from the stove and told him, "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus."

ATHENS/MADRID, July 31 (Reuters) - Greece battled wildfires on Friday on multiple fronts, from the outskirts of Athens to the central part of the country and on the island of Crete, while France and Spain won some respite after bringing major blazes under control.
Europe has been ravaged by wildfires this summer after successive record-breaking heatwaves, leaving vast stretches of drought-parched vegetation primed to burn, and forcing hundreds of thousands of people to flee their homes.
Residents of two communities west of Athens were advised to evacuate as a precaution as smoke billowed from densely wooded hills surrounding the Greek capital, with authorities scrambling a formation of water-bombing aircraft to extinguish the blaze.
In Boeotia, north-west of Athens, hundreds of residents and visitors were evacuated from a small coastal community aboard coast guard boats and fishing vessels as thick orange smoke blanketed the area.

A small town in Colorado has been declared abandoned by the state after its remaining elected officials resigned, leading its troubled water system to become a "health hazard" to its residents, according to state officials.
The Office of the Colorado Secretary of State said the determination was made this week after a public hearing showed that "the Town of Hartman had no Board of Trustees or Town Clerk, was unable to hold a town election, and owned infrastructure critical for the treatment or delivery of water to residents."
"Importantly, not determining that the Town of Hartman is abandoned as contemplated by § 31-3-201(1)(b), C.R.S. (2026), would leave the residents in further legal limbo during a health hazard, with no authority to conduct business, hold elections, or fix their water infrastructure so that clean water can be delivered to the town residents," Deputy Secretary of State Andrew Kline wrote in an abandonment order. "Abandonment is the only legal mechanism in Colorado statute that creates an avenue for residents of the area to receive clean water."

In the quarter, the Large Cap Composite (Net) returned 9.5%, the Small Cap Composite (Net) returned 13.3%, the Focus Composite (Net) returned 10.4%, the Focus Plus Composite (Net) returned 10.5%, and the All-Cap Composite (Net) returned 9.0%.

Management highlighted that their exceptional holdings remain deeply undervalued relative to "what is working" in the market, viewing this as an excellent opportunity for patient investors. In addition, please check the Firm's top five holdings to know its best picks in 2026.
In its Q2 2026 investor letter, Vulcan Value Partners highlighted Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE:BMI), a recent addition to the firm's small‑cap strategy. Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE:BMI) is a US-based flow measurement, quality, control, and communication solutions company with a strong focus on Utility water smart metering solutions and software technologies. On July 29, 2026, Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE:BMI) closed at $133.54 per share, reflecting a market capitalization of $3.87 billion. Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE:BMI) posted a one-month return of -8.61%, while its shares lost 29.38% over the past 52 weeks.
Vulcan Value Partners stated the following regarding Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE:BMI) in its Q2 2026 investor update:
"We purchased Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE:BMI) and TPG Inc. during the quarter. Badger Meter is the only pure-play, publicly traded manufacturer of water meters in North America. More than 120 years old, the company now supports over 50,000 water utilities across the country. It is one of three players that have controlled roughly 85% of the North American water meter market for decades. Water meters are essential tools for water utilities in generating revenue. If meter readings are outdated or inaccurate, the utility risks losing revenue by underbilling end customers. Given the cost of failure is high, it comes as no surprise that 85% of Badger Meter's revenue is derived from replacement demand. In addition to stable unit volume growth over the long term, Badger Meter has and will continue to benefit from positive mix benefits tied to its advanced metering infrastructure and ***** ociated software offering, both of which carry higher margins. Despite slowing industry growth due to difficult post-Covid comparisons, we expect operating performance to improve as the company executes against its strong pipeline of opportunities over the coming years. Badger Meter has a long history of profitable growth, is supported by a net cash balance sheet, and is led by a management team compensated on metrics such as FCF conversion and returns on invested capital. After many years of watching the company's success from afar, we

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — As if two-way player Travis Hunter doesn't already have enough on his plate.
The week before the Jacksonville Jaguars opened training camp, Hunter was photographed wearing a police vest posing with Sheriff T.K. Waters and members of the Jacksonville Fire Rescue Department. It had the look of a ride-along, though Hunter wasn't saying.
"I was just out there just having fun with Sheriff T.K.," Hunter said Friday.
Hunter, the Heisman Trophy winner out of Colorado whom the Jaguars made the No. 2 pick in last year's draft, has enough to keep him occupied in training camp. Hunter is returning from injury, his rookie year ending two months into the season when he tore knee ligaments during noncontact drills.
In seven games, he played 324 snaps at receiver and 162 snaps at cornerback. The plan to use him on both sides of the ball has not changed, especially after the Jaguars shored up the core of their secondary by re-signing Montaric "Buster" Brown in March.
