Florida Retiree Dies After Arrest by 13 Cops
Charles Eimers, a retired 61-year-old autoworker, died in police custody after being arrested outside a Pizza Hut in Key West, Florida, last Thanksgiving. “He was murdered by those officers,” his son Treavor Eimers told CBS News. Video recorded by a passer-by shows the man emerging from his car on his own and then surrendering by laying face-down on the beach. A group of more than a dozen officers surround the prostrate man and form a wall around him. He died from lack of oxygen to the brain, according to hospital records.
Landon Donovan Left Off World Cup Roster
The United States World Cup roster is officially set, and coach Jurgen Klinsmann has left off Landon Donovan, the most accomplished player in U.S. men’s soccer history. The 32-year-old has 156 caps and scored five World Cup goals. “The other guys are a little ahead of him,” Klinsmann said after announcing the final roster. “He did everything right, He was always positive. His disappointment is huge, totally understand that. He took it very professional.”
