A dangerous heat wave gripping millions. And this morning, it's not letting up

The stories that matter, clear and credible. from across the country to around the world

These are your unbiased updates from Straight Arrow News. Good morning, I'm Craig DeGrelli

The man accused of stabbing 11 people inside a Michigan Walmart may soon face terrorism charges in addition to 11 counts of assault with intent to kill

Police say 42-year-old Bradford James Gilley used a folding knife to stab five men and six women

including one Walmart employee on Saturday. The victims range in age from 21 to 84

Authorities say the attack appears random, and so far they've found no clear motive

Grand Traverse County Sheriff Michael Shea praised both the quick response from law enforcement

and a group of bystanders who confronted Gilly outside and helped stop him in the parking lot

I cannot commend everyone that was involved enough. When you stop and look at from the time of call to the time of actual custody

it actually was the individual was detained within one minute. And that is remarkable when you look at it

And that mitigated Lord knows how many additional victims. Gilly is now being held at the Grand Traverse County Jail

Formal charges and arraignment could happen as early as today. Authorities are now working with the FBI to determine whether the attack meets the definition of domestic terrorism

which involves violent acts meant to advance political social or ideological beliefs rooted in the U It not a victory but it is a sigh of relief The United States and Europe have avoided a full

trade war. The two sides struck a last-minute deal over the weekend just days before steep

tariffs were set to kick in. The agreement sets a 15 percent tariff on most European goods coming

into the U.S., higher than before, but far less than the 50 percent Donald Trump had threatened

if talks collapsed. President Trump announced the deal after meeting with European Commission

President Ursula von der Leyen during his trip to Scotland, saying it will lead to a $750 billion

EU investment in American energy. We've had a very good relationship over the years

but it's been a very one-sided transaction, very unfair to the United States. And I think both

sides want to see fairness, but it's been a very, very one-sided deal that it shouldn't be

The two called it a win, though many experts say it's more of a relief than a breakthrough

The deal does include zero tariffs on things like aircraft parts, generic drugs and semiconductors

but many goods will now be more expensive for American consumers. Still, for now

a trade war has been averted, and there's more diplomacy on deck this morning. Today

Donald Trump is hosting British Prime Minister Keir Starmer at his two gold resorts in Scotland

Trade, Ukraine and the crisis in Gaza are all expected to be on the agenda

Also today, the U.N. General Assembly is hosting a high-level meeting to promote a two-state solution

to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Both Israel and the United States are boycotting it. The

meeting, co-hosted by France and Saudi Arabia, was originally scheduled for last month but

postponed after Israel's attack on Iran. U.S. officials have called the conference counterproductive to its own efforts to end

the war in Gaza. France however is pushing for action with its foreign minister urging other countries to join France in recognizing a Palestinian state President Emmanuel Macron says France intends to do just that this September at the next United Nations General Assembly

Parachutes fell over Gaza Sunday carrying food but also raising fears. The U.N. says the aid drops are inefficient, dangerous, and could even kill starving civilians

Israel allowed them, as part of a new plan, to ease restrictions and pause military operations in parts of Gaza during daylight hours

a shift driven by global outrage over the growing hunger crisis. Nearly one in three Gazans is going days without food

More than 50 people have reportedly died from starvation just this month, including children

Medical teams are running on empty, and aid groups say people are collapsing while waiting in line

Trucks are now getting through and Israel has restored power to a key water plant

However, aid groups say it's not enough. Some who tried to reach food on Sunday were met with Israeli gunfire

Israel claims it only fired warning shots. Speaking last night in Jerusalem, Benjamin Netanyahu denied reports of mass starvation in Gaza

What a bold-faced lie. There is no policy of starvation in Gaza, and there is no starvation in Gaza

It was a sweltering weekend for millions of Americans, and the dangerous heat is not letting up anytime soon

Extreme temperatures are gripping the Midwest and South and now pushing toward the East Coast

In the Midwest, from Lincoln, Nebraska, up to Minneapolis, temperatures hit the upper 90s

Factor in the humidity, and it felt more like 110 degrees. Heat advisories and warnings are posted in cities, including Dallas, Oklahoma City, Indianapolis and Kansas City and others

We're expected to hit like 109 here in Omaha. It's day tomorrow. Boy, it is sticky, wicked

Let me tell you down south New Orleans Jacksonville Atlanta Charlotte and Richmond are bracing for triple digit temperatures through Wednesday And along the the Northeast I corridor from Boston to New York City Monday and Tuesday are expected

to be miserable, with heat index values between the mid-90s and 105. Forecasters are calling it

a prolonged heat wave fueled by tropical moisture and stubborn high pressure

Finally this morning, a little bit of history on the NASCAR circuit. Bubba Wallace became the first

African-American driver to win a major race at the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway

Wallace held off defending champ Kyle Larson to win the Brickyard 400 on Sunday, and he celebrated

in style, kissing the yard of bricks on the Speedway's legendary 2.5-mile oval right there

The finish was a nail-biter. Listen to this. Just .22 seconds separated the two drivers in a race

that included an 18-minute rain delay and last-lap fuel drama. Wallace said after the race

I knew I was going to get there unless we ran out of gas. Can you imagine the anxiety

You're racing against the competition. You see him in your rearview mirror. You look at your gas gauge and you're on red

It becomes a race against time. Good for him. He pulled it off. All right, before we head out, here's what we're tracking today

Vice President J.D. Vance heads to Canton, Ohio at noon to promote the administration's new tax cut and spending bill

In Texas, lawmakers meet at 6 tonight in Arlington to hear public feedback on congressional redistricting

And tonight in L.A., the red carpet rolls out for the star-studded premiere of the Naked Gun remake

with Liam Neeson, Pamela Anderson, Weird Al, and Busta Rhymes all expected to attend
