Business Insider - Late last month, Benson High School senior KeShon Henderson officially accepted a scholarship to play college basketball at Judson University in Elgin, Illinois. Hours later, while walking down the streets of Omaha, Henderson was robbed and shot twice.  Henderson was shot once in the leg and once in his lung. He was rushed to a local hospital to treat his wounds but medical complications arose, forcing the teen into a coma. Four days into his coma, Henderson lost blood flow to one of his legs. Doctors amputated it, saying it would save his life. While he survived the attack, Henderson's dreams of playing college basketball have been put on hold. Two 16-year-olds have been arrested in connection to the shooting but an investigation is still ongoing.

AP - HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - A lawsuit is challenging a Pennsylvania county's policy that people on probation and other forms of court supervision may not use medical marijuana, even if they are in the state registry. The ACLU of Pennsylvania filed a case in Commonwealth Court on Tuesday that seeks to stop the policy that was imposed last month in Lebanon County. The three plaintiffs argue it contradicts legal-immunity provisions in the state's 2016 law and are asking for an order to halt the policy while their case proceeds. ACLU lawyers say they may expand the litigation to cover similar policies in some other counties. The defendant is the Lebanon County judicial district, which includes the county probation office. It's being represented by lawyers for the Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts, which declined comment.
