Closing Arguments Set in Deadly Hit
By: Jennifer Saucedo

Closing arguments are set Thursday morning in the trial of a man accused of leaving an accident scene after hitting a boy. Juan Manuel Lopez, 73, is charged with failure to stop and render aid.

Witnesses says Lopez left after hitting and killing 11 year-old Super Herebia. It happened in September 2010 at Old Highway 90 and 36th Street.

Oscar Balderas chased Lopez down and made him come back to the scene. Balderas says Lopez didn't want to go back because he thought he had only hit a dog. 

"I was like no it's not a dog, it was a little boy," said Balderas. "He was like, no I got things to do and I was like no, you need to go back."

If convicted, Lopez is facing up to ten years in prison. Closing Arguments Set in Deadly Hit

Last-minute fortune seekers buy Powerball tickets
May 18, 2013 23:13 GMT

By BARBARA RODRIGUEZ Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- Powerball is a game of numbers, and lottery officials say the majority of possible combinations have already been purchased ahead of Saturday night's near-historic $600 million drawing.

The odds of winning the game's largest jackpot remain astronomically low: 1 in 175.2 million.

But since about 80 percent of the possible combinations have been purchased, lottery officials say it's likely the winning ticket could be selected.

People lined up at gas stations and convenience stores Saturday for their chance at striking it rich.

South Carolina resident Benjamin Richardson says the few bucks he spends for every drawing are worth it. He also reasons that "it's all luck anyway."

The latest jackpot is the world's second largest overall, just behind a $656 million Mega Millions jackpot in March 2012.
