NEW YORK โ€” "Two New York City police officers narrowly escaped with their lives when a gunman fired into their patrol van Saturday night, wounding one of them in an attack officials called an attempted assassination.

The ambush, which Police Commissioner Dermot Shea said โ€œshould outrage all New Yorkers,โ€ happened just before 8:30 pm in the South Bronx.

The officer at the wheel of the van was grazed in the chin and neck, but he avoided serious injury, Shea said. He was expected to released from the hospital Sunday."

BANGKOK โ€” "A soldier suspected of killing at least 26 people during a shooting rampage in northeastern Thailand was shot and killed Sunday, Thai officials said. The alleged gunman, Sgt. Jakrapanth Thomma, shot and killed a soldier and a woman at a military barracks in the city of Nakhon Ratchasima before turning his attention to a nearby mall, said police spokesman Kissana Phathanacharoen.

Investigators believe a dispute over a land deal payment may have prompted the shooting, Phathanacharoen added.

Thomma escaped in a military Humvee and opened fire at a number of different locations throughout the city, police said. He then holed up in a shopping mall for more than 10 hours after the attack began, police in Thailand told NBC News.

Of those killed, 16 died on the spot, Thailand's Ministry of Health announced. Another 57 were injured, with four undergoing emergency surgery and another six placed in intensive care. At least 25 victims have been released from the hospital while 32 remain. Officials revised the death toll to 26 after previously stating that 20 people had been killed."

PARIS (AP) โ€” "French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday advocated a more coordinated European Union defense strategy in which France, the bloc's only post-Brexit nuclear power, and its arsenal would hold a central role.

Addressing military officers graduating in Paris, Macron set out his country's nuclear strategy in a bid to show leadership one week after nuclear-armed Britain officially exited the EU.

Macron highlighted how France sees its nuclear weapons as a deterrent against attacks from belligerent foes, though he conceded Franceโ€™s nuclear might is diminished after its military scaled down its arsenal to under 300 nuclear weapons."
