Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles David O'Connell, 69, was found with a gunshot wound in his Hacienda Heights home on Saturday afternoon, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.

An American Airlines jet with 60 passengers and four crew members aboard collided with an Army helicopter Wednesday night while coming in for a landing at Ronald Reagan National Airport near Washington. The Black Hawk helicopter was carrying a crew of three. Officials said early Thursday that everyone on board both aircraft is believed dead, which would make it the deadliest U.S. air crash in nearly a quarter century.
