Shooting at lake near Oklahoma City leaves at least 12 injured

Edmund, Oklahoma — A shooting Sunday night at a party at a lake near Oklahoma City sent least 12 people to hospitals, according to police and hospital officials.

Edmond police spokesperson Emily Ward said authorities received reports of shots being fired at about 9 p.m. at a gathering of young people near Arcadia Lake. She said late Sunday that no arrests had been made yet.

"This is obviously a very terrifying situation and we understand the concern from the public and those involved and we are working extremely hard to find the suspects," she said.

"We're kind of all over the metro speaking with victims and witnesses," Ward said.

She said 10 people were taken to hospitals and others drove themselves. She said victims were in "various conditions."

Nine people were at Integris Health Baptist Medical Center in Oklahoma City and three were at Integris Health Edmond Hospital, according to a hospital system spokesperson. The spokesperson said the patients were all still being assessed late Sunday night.

CBS Oklahoma City affiliate KWTV reportsthat police set up a reunification center for families at a local Walmart.

Arcadia Lake, about 13 miles north of Oklahoma City, is an artificial reservoir used for flood control that is also a popular recreational spot that offers fishing, boating, picnicking and camping. It's located in Edmond, an Oklahoma City suburb with about 100,000 residents.

Forty years ago, Edmond was the site of one of the deadliest workplace shootings in U.S. history. On Aug. 20, 1986, postal worker Patrick Sherrill shot 20 co-workers, killing 14 of them. He then killed himself.

Trump Suggests His Choreography Helped the 'Gay National Anthem' Chart at No. 1

Donald Trump suggested that he helped the Village People's "Y.M.C.A." top the charts during his 2024 campaign

NEED TO KNOW

• "Y.M.C.A.," which the president called the “gay national anthem,” has been a staple at his rallies and events for years

• Donald said wife Melania Trump "hates" how he dances to the disco tune

Donald Trumpsaid his dance moves to the Village People's "Y.M.C.A." — which he described as the “gay national anthem” — brought the song to the top of the music charts.

Addressing a crowd at The Villages retirement community in Floridaon Friday, May 1, the president, 79, suggested that he is to thank for the 2024 chart resurgence of the 1970s tune, which became an unlikely anthem for Donald during his campaign.

Donald also told the crowd that wifeMelania Trumpisn't a fan of his reaction to the song. “She hateswhen I danceto what is sometimes referred to as the gay national anthem,” he said. “She hates it."

"Y.M.C.A.” topped the Billboard sales charts in late 2024, decades after it first debuted.

“The song 'Y.M.C.A.' spends a fifth week at No. 1 on Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales, the most for any song by a group in 2024,” Billboard said in anX postat the time.

“The song originally reached No. 2 on the Hot 100 in 1979," the music chart company added.

Donald recounted the disco classic’s chart resurgence during his 2024 presidential campaign this week, but he falsely inflated the statistics, stating that it "went to No. 1 for months."

"We love that song," he said. “But [Melania] goes, ‘Darling, please.’ You know, she's a very elegant woman. She goes, ‘Darling, please don't dance. It's not presidential.’ I said, ‘It may not be presidential, but I'm leading by 20 points in the polls or something.’ ”

The president later broke out his signature dance moves — a double fist pump and hip shake — as "Y.M.C.A.” played at the end of his address at the Florida retirement community. He also added in a faux golf swing.

"Y.M.C.A.” first became tied to Donald during his 2020 reelection campaign, during which it often soundtracked events as he danced. It even played duringthe final moments of his presidencyin January 2021, as he and Melania, 56 boarded Air Force One.

When he ran for president again in 2024, Donald concluded over 110 rallies with the "Y.M.C.A.,” perABC News. After he won the election, he alsoenlisted the help of the Village People at his inauguration events.

Donald has previously referred to the song as the “gay national anthem” during various other occasions in the past.

During an appearance on theNelk Boys'Full Sendpodcastin March, the president said, "You know what gets them rocking [at Mar-a-Lago]? 'Y.M.C.A.’Did you ever hear that? They call it the gay national anthem," Donald said.

He added that the song "gets people up, and it gets them moving."

Oscar statuette for 'Mr. Nobody Against Putin' goes missing on flight

By Matthias Williams

LONDON, May 1 (Reuters) - TheOscar statuettebelonging to Pavel Talankin, the Russian director who won best documentary this year for 'Mr. ‌Nobody Against Putin', has gone missing after he was forced to ‌check the award into hold luggage on a flight from New York to Germany, his co-director said.

Talankin ​was due to fly from John F. Kennedy International Airport to Frankfurt on German carrier Lufthansa. But Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents told him that the 8.5 lb (3.8 kg) statuette posed a potential security threat, his co-director David Borenstein said on Thursday.

"At ‌the airport, a TSA agent ⁠stopped him and said the Oscar could be used as a weapon," Borenstein said on Instagram.

"Pavel didn’t have a bag to ⁠check it in, so the TSA put the Oscar in a box and sent it to the bottom of the plane," he said, posting a series of pictures, ​including of ​the box.

"It never arrived in Frankfurt."

Responding to ​Borenstein's Instagram post, Lufthansa said it ‌was taking the matter seriously.

"We will do everything we can to find the Oscar as fast as possible and have already escalated this," it said.

Lufthansa did not immediately respond to a request for further comment on Friday, which is a public holiday in Germany.

Speaking to the online magazine Deadline.com after arriving in Germany on ‌Thursday, Talankin said it was "completely baffling how ​they consider an Oscar a weapon."

On previous flights ​on various airlines, he had flown ​with it "in the cabin, and there never was any kind ‌of problem," he told the outlet.

Talankin ​and Borenstein's documentary used ​two years of footage that Talankin recorded at a school where he worked in Russia's Chelyabinsk region, to show how students were exposed to ​pro‑war messaging.

The 35-year-old Talankin, ‌who fled Russia in 2024, has defended the film as a record ​for posterity to show how "an entire generation became angry and aggressive".

Donnie Wahlberg and Bridget Moynahan Revisit an Iconic “Blue Bloods” Moment for Pivotal Scene in “Boston Blue”

Donnie Wahlberg's Danny Reagan and Bridget Moynahan's Erin Regan took the advice of their dad in the latest episode of Boston Blue

NEED TO KNOW

• In the Friday, May 1, episode, Danny is held at gunpoint while his sister jumps into action, offering a callback to original series Blue Bloods

• Boston Blue airs on CBS Fridays at 10 p.m. ET and streams on Paramount+

Bridget MoynahanandDonnie Wahlbergare bringing another piece ofBlue Bloodsto Boston.

On the Friday, May 1 episode of CBS'sBoston Blue, Moynahan made her long-awaited return as Danny Reagan's sister, Assistant District Attorney Erin Reagan. While Erin made a brief appearance in the spinoff's premiere, her latest visit to Boston came with added responsibility — and a callback to the show that put them on the map.

The episode, "L'Dor Vador," features Erin returning to help her brother and Det. Lena Silver (Sonequa Martin-Green) crack a case involving a serial killer named Abraham, who tells Danny that he's already familiar with Erin.

When Erin makes her way to Beantown to confront him, the man admits to knowing the whereabouts of a missing Boston girl, before leading the siblings on a high-stakes journey to find exactly where he's kept her captive.

The storyline involving the Danny and his sister continues with the pair driving with the suspect — at his request — to gather intel on where the missing child could be. During the car ride, Abraham provokes Danny as he brings up his move to Boston, while Erin admits the Reagan family was "surprised" about the whole ordeal.

Eventually, Erin, Danny and the suspect wind up at a park full of abandoned busses. He lures them to an enclosed space where they can hear a little girl crying, only for Danny to bust the door open and find a boombox playing a recording of a cry on a loop. Abraham then has Danny and Erin right where he wants them and holds Danny at gunpoint.

That's when Erin, who is holding her own gun up to the suspect, says a phrase thatBlue Bloodsfans should be all-too familiar with: "Please don't hurt my family."

Those words prompt Danny to drop to the ground, as Erin shoots Abraham and leads him right into BPD custody. Later in the episode, the pair explain the significance of the line. "Our dad drilled that phrase ["please don't hurt my family"] into us as kids, and his dad taught him," Erin said. "So anytime we heard it, we had to drop to the ground for cover."

"I might live a few hundred miles away from New York," Danny said. "But the Reagan traditions live on right here [his heart]."

The phrase is a callback toBlue Bloods. The siblings previously used the code when Erin was similarly in jeopardy in a season 4 episode, with Danny then saving her life. Duringa later family dinner scene, Erin and Danny confirmed that they had their dad Frank Reagan (Tom Selleck) to thank for preparing them.

"You used to drill that into us every time we went to the city," Erin said, as Frank gave credit to their family patriarch.

"Actually, Pop invented it," Frank said of his own dad, played by Len Cariou. "He used to do the same thing to me. ... Please, God, we never [use it] again."

Elsewhere in the latest episode, Danny's BPD partner Det. Lena Silver (Sonequa Martin-Green) is on a familial mission of her own after learning the true identity of her dad from her mom, DA Mae Silver (Gloria Reuben). As it turns out, her biological dad is now in law enforcement himself.

Things get dicey when Lena goes to visit him — eventually leading to the shocking discovery of a potential half-sister. She eventually comes face to face with the woman, who is married to an officer she went on a ride-along with, but decides it's not the right time to introduce herself quite yet. This all goes down as her grandfather, Rev. Edwin Peters (Ernie Hudson), has a health scare and ultimately pulls through.

At the end of the episode, Danny and Erin discover the missing girl, while Lena and her mom still have some things to iron out.

Boston Blueairs on CBS Fridays at 10 p.m. ET and streams the next day on Paramount+.

Sally Field Explains Why She Turned Down Diane Keaton’s Role in “The” “First Wives Club, ”Says It Was Not Her ‘Cup of Tea’

Sally Field recently confirmed that she passed on a major role in The First Wives Club

NEED TO KNOW

• The 79-year-old actress said the film’s themes didn’t align with the kinds of stories she wanted to tell

• Field also noted the role ultimately suited Diane Keaton better than it would her

Oscar-winning actressSally Fieldrecently opened up about a major role she once passed on, offering a candid look at how she evaluates the stories she chooses to tell.

While speaking toParade, she reflected on her long career and the decisions that shaped it, including the opportunity to star in the 1996 hitThe First Wives Club. Although the film became a commercial success with lasting popularity, Field ultimately decided it wasn’t the right fit for her.

“I did turn it down. I loved all of those actors, but I have always had a problem with older women either wanting to get a date or looking to like, you know, have more sex with their husband,” Field told the outlet. “Or I just feel like there’s more for women to say, so that was just never my cup of tea.”

The First Wives Clubcenters on three divorced women who reunite and bond over their shared experiences of being left by their husbands for younger partners.

Starring Bette Midler,Goldie HawnandDiane Keaton, the film blends comedy with themes of revenge and empowerment as the trio schemes to reclaim their independence.

Keaton ultimately took on the role Field declined — Annie Paradis, a reserved and emotionally fragile character navigating heartbreak and self-worth.

The film struck a chord with audiences, bolstered by its sharp humor and memorable performances, and even went on to receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Musical or Comedy Score.

Looking back, Field expressed confidence that the role simply wasn’t suited to her strengths.

“I couldn’t have done that role because I don’t sing, and they all did that at the end,” she told Parade. “I would never have been as good. I mean, it was absolutely right for Keaton, not for me."

In a 2023interview with PEOPLE, Field shared that although Hawn encouraged her to take the role, she ultimately couldn’t envision herself in it.

"Maybe it would have been fun, but they were all so musical, and I'm not," she admitted. "And the movie wouldn't have been the same."
