  3. FORT RILEY, Kan. (WIBW) - A Kansas National Guard member has been arrested and charged after allegedly agreeing to take pictures of a Fort Riley military installation and obtain a helicopter radio for the Russian military. According to a U.S. Dept. of Justice (DOJ) press release, officials arrested Canyon Anthony Amarys, 28, of Alamogordo, New Mexico, on Tuesday, Oct. 28, relating to his indictment for the attempted violation of the Export Control Reform Act. Officials said that Amarys had an alleged in-person meeting with a suspected Russian intelligence agent.

  17. A new product from GoFundMe is intended to solicit donations for nonprofit organizations. But in one local case, several organizations had no clue these pages even exist. Dave Dornlas is the treasurer for the Friends of the San Bruno Public Library and the president of the San Bruno Amateur Radio Club. Recently, he got a call from the library that left him puzzled. "One of our patrons at the library... they wanted to make a donation in someone's name who had passed away," Dornlas said. Dornlas said the person went online and found a GoFundMe page tied to the library's nonprofit and wanted to know if it was legit or not. "It was something that we did not set up and were a little concerned about," Dornlas said. "We weren't sure what was going on." Turns out GoFundMe created the page -- but Dornlas had no clue. And he's not the only one. GoFundMe has taken upon itself to create "nonprofit pages" for 1.4 million 501C-3 organizations using public IRS data along with information from trusted partners like the PayPal Giving Fund. more at https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/gofundme-created-1-4m-donation-005156480.html
  18. HANOVER PARK, Ill. (WLS) -- United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested a police officer Thursday morning in Hanover Park, accusing him of being an unlawful immigrant from Montenegro. Hanover Park police are now saying the department hired the officer in January in "full compliance with federal and state law," adding, the village confirmed he was legally authorized by the federal government to work in the United States. That is contradicting what the Department of Homeland Security said earlier Thursday. The Department of Homeland Security says Radule Bojovic overstayed a tourist visa that expired in 2015. more at https://abc7chicago.com/post/ice-arrests-police-officer-radule-bojovic-hanover-park-illinois-accuses-being-us-illegally-montenegro/18019608/ a facebook group states: he’s a police officer making $78,955 in Hanover Park.
