Honeymoon Murderer Escapes Custody

Honeymoon Muderer Escapes Custody

By Kenneth Ruiz

Breakout City - James Smith has escaped from police custody. James is infamous for marrying heiress Victoria Van Kress then murdering her on their honeymoon. He was recently convicted, and the sentencing trial was scheduled for tomorrow; however, authorities announced today that Smith had escaped.

A massive manhunt is currently underway. Police are questioning everyone who knew Smith in an effort to determine where he might go; they are offering a reward for any information leading to his capture.

There is no official word yet on how Smith escaped custody. Authorities have promised a full investigation into the matter. A member of the Van Kress family, speaking on condition of anonymity, responded to the news by saying, “The pain and suffering that James has caused this family is seemingly endless. I hope when the police find him they shoot him on sight.” While no one knows what the fugitive might do next, it’s safe to say that he is a desperate man. If you see him, do not attempt to approach or apprehend him - instead, alert the police immediately.

Breakout City Bears take Metro Orioles in 9th-Inning Nailbiter

By Taylor Thompson, SportsBeat

Breakout City - The setting sun did little to break the heat at Breakout City's bay stadium last Friday. Fans nonetheless held on for the bottom of the 9th. The Bears faced an uphill battle as the Orioles led 5-3. Julio Miller's lead-off led to a pop-up out, but Marty Riggs sank a homerun deep into left field to make it a one-point game. Said Riggs: "We were deep in our batting order, but that wasn't going to stop us. This team's got heart." Fans rose to their feet as local favorite Chris Gonzalez took to the plate. After a few foul balls, Gonzalez hit a hard single up the left-field line, putting the tying run on first. Kevin Griffith's following pop-up out positioned Gonzalez at second, but it would be Mark Martin's two-run homer on the very next pitch that sealed the deal.
