Police in western Uganda have arrested the king of Rwenzururu over clashes between police and militia which killed at least 55 people, officials say. Charles Wesley Mumbere is accused of inciting violence after militiamen reportedly attacked a police post in his hometown of Kasese. Security forces stormed his palace amid claims he was harbouring fighters. The king has denied any involvement. At least 14 police officers and 41 militants have died in the clashes.

Fidel Castro's passing removes what was long the single greatest psychological barrier to a warmer U.S.-Cuba relationship. But it also adds to the uncertainty ahead with the transition from an Obama to a Trump administration. "A brutal dictator" of a "totalitarian island," declared President-elect Donald Trump, underscoring the historical trauma still separating the countries. A more restrained President Barack Obama, carefully promoting and working to preserve his own attempt to rebuild those ties, said history would assess Castro's impact and that the Cuban people could reflect "with powerful emotions" about how their longtime leader influenced their country.

President Raul Castro, Fidel's younger brother, is 85. Their Communist Party shows no signs of open

Producer Black Sheep said that he saw Seanizzle at the KFC on Washington Boulevard at about midnight on Sunday. "He had been recording songs and had gone to get food for the artistes.
