Breaking Newsletter

Multiple breaking and developing stories are underway in the U.S. and around the world. 

Here is a special breaking newsletter with the latest:

GERMANY THEATER ATTACK:

An assailant who attacked a German cinema has been killed, a German official said. Authorities said police responded to an early report of shots fired by a man with a rifle. 

SUPREME COURT:

The high court issued rulings on two pressing issues: affirmative action and immigration.

In the immigration case, the justices delivered a crushing blow to the White House. The court’s 4-4 ruling on President Obama’s executive actions on immigration means that a lower court ruling blocking the programs will remain in effect. Obama expressed disappointment, saying the decision "takes us further from the country that we aspire to be."

The Supreme Court also upheld the University of Texas practice of using applicants’ race as a factor in admissions. The 4-3 ruling greenlights the limited use of affirmative action policies by schools.

FREDDIE GRAY CASE:

The Baltimore police officer driving the van when Freddie Gray was fatally injured in April 2015 was found not guilty on all charges. The officer, Caesar Goodson, faced the most serious charges of all the police charged in the case. Goodson opted for a bench trial presided over by Judge Barry Williams, rather than a trial by jury.

HOUSE SIT-IN:

Republicans tried to shut it down, but the Democrats' now 24-hour-long sit-in protesting the lack of action on gun control after the nightclub massacre in Orlando is still going strong. The protest started Wednesday morning, and House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi later said the sit-in would continue "until hell freezes over." 

EU REFERENDUM:

Meanwhile, voters in the UK are deciding if Britain will remain in the European Union.

Stay tuned to CNN on whatever screen is nearest to you for the latest updates on all these stories and more.
