AP News reports rescuers are struggling to reach survivors as the scale of the disaster overwhelms response efforts. Meanwhile, a jury convicted Duane "Keffe D" Davis of first-degree murder in the 1996 killing of rapper Tupac Shakur — marking the first conviction in a case that captivated hip-hop fans for nearly 30 years.
In other major developments, the sole water pipeline serving millions of Grand Canyon visitors was badly damaged by flash flooding, disrupting a years-long upgrade project.
