Family of 5 stuck in Atlanta after Delta flight issues
SUMMARY: A family stranded in Atlanta for six days after arriving from Paris attempts to fly out for the third time.

Frustrated with Delta’s lack of assistance, they learned they must rent a car to reach South Dakota without reimbursement. Hoping their noon flight goes smoothly, they continue to face travel chaos.

SUMMARY: A Saudi doctor drove his car into a crowded Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, killing four women, aged 45 to 75, and a 9-year-old boy, injuring 200 others.

The suspect, 50-year-old Taleb A., faces charges of murder and attempted murder. He has lived in Germany since 2006 and expressed anti-Islam sentiments online. Investigators are examining his motives, potentially linked to dissatisfaction with Saudi refugee treatment.
