An explosion ripped apart a duplex in the southeastern Virginia city of Franklin on Friday night, critically injuring two people and spurring investigators to try to figure out what caused it, the city manager said.

Steve Bannon, the onetime adviser to former President Donald Trump who has been charged with contempt of Congress, asked a federal judge Friday to dismiss his criminal case.

Approaching three years since the death of Ronald Greene, which one Louisiana State Police member described as "torture and murder," there have been no arrests or indictments of any of the officers involved. Meanwhile, the former head of the LSP on Thursday failed to appear at an appeal hearing related to the case.
