Montgomery County

A woman hiking the Billy Goat Trail in Montgomery County, Maryland, died Saturday in what authorities believe was a heat-related medical emergency during the the hottest weekend of the year in the Washington region.

Peter Bang was shaking. The 20-year Montgomery County, Maryland, employee sat before the county attorney and his deputy in a conference room, staring at the piece of paper in front of him. He was being placed on leave without pay for stealing more than $6.7 million in public funds over six years

Mora Gregg, a retired librarian in Toronto, was simply dusting a bookshelf in her one-bedroom apartment last month when she happened upon a lovingly worn copy of the 1929 children's book "The Postman," by Charlotte Kuh. Gregg's mother had checked it out of a Silver Spring, Md., library in 1946, when Gregg was a toddler.

Building a light-rail line - in this case, the 16-mile Purple Line in Maryland - often involves acquiring houses to be razed. A routine part, for construction workers, is going into the homes to inventory items that need to be removed before demolition.

Josselin Ramirez faced long odds as her trial drew to a close.

As many as 10 members of the MS-13 street gang lured a man into a park in Wheaton, Maryland, spoke with one another over walkie-talkies as he arrived, stabbed him more than 100 times, decapitated him and then cut out his heart, according to police documents made public Wednesday in Montgomery County District Court.

The father of two, asleep next to his wife in their suburban-Washington, D.C., home, was awakened by a cellphone beep. It signaled a message from his Nest outdoor security system.

Much else of what occurred that night is in dispute and will be the focus of the criminal case against Cosby, who was charged Wednesday with aggravated indecent assault by prosecutors in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

An Indian IT professional, sentenced to death in the US for killing a baby and her Indian grandmother, is so frustrated with his lawyers that he sought immediate execution rather than seeking a new trial with them.

A US former Marine and Iraq war veteran accused of murdering his ex-wife and five members of her family was found dead in woods near his home on Tuesday, a prosecutor said.

A gunman killed six people and seriously wounded another Monday in a series of shootings near the northeastern US city of Philadelphia, authorities said, as police hunted for the suspect.

An Indian American couple in the US has been arrested on charges of killing husband's 49-year-old former wife, the police said.

An Indian-American student, charged with murder of his high school friend, has been denied bail by a local Maryland court.
