Much cooler air will
continue to sag southward
over the Northeast states
today. The cool push will be
accompanied by clouds,
areas of rain and spotty
thunderstorms from the
Great Lakes to the Mid-
Atlantic.
Record-challenging heat
will continue to bake much
of the South under
sunshine. A few showers
and storms will offer some
relief to South Florida and
parts of the southern
Plains.
The storms can be locally
severe the risk of flash
flooding. A push of cool
and dry air is forecast to
expand over the North
Central states.
Thousands of police officers, Sikh be-
lievers and Houston-area residents
turned out for daylong ceremonies
Wednesday to honor as “humble” and
“fearless” Harris County Sheriff ’s Depu-
ty Sandeep Dhaliwal, who was shot to
death during a traffic stop last week.
Dhaliwal, 42, was the first Sikh sher-
iff ’s deputy in Harris County, part of a
Gulf Coast region that is home to as
many as 10,000 Sikhs.
At the service, Simratpal Singh, a
U.S. Army captain, flanked by other
members of the Sikh community in mil-
itary service, described Dhaliwal as
“humble, fearless, not dissuaded by
negativity.”
“Our lion may be gone physically, but
his legacy of selfless service and of
breaking down barriers will continue to
live,” he said.
Dhaliwal was shot in an ambush-
style attack during a traffic stop Friday.
The observances Wednesday includ-
ed a procession, two funeral services
and a law enforcement memorial with
a 21-gun salute from fellow officers and
a helicopter flyover. The procession
route was lined with blue and white
signs reading, “Always in Our Hearts”
and “In Loving Memory of Deputy
Dhaliwal.”
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, speaking
before thousands dur-
ing the Sikh part of the
ceremony, told Dhali-
wal’s wife and three
children the community
“supports you and lifts
you up.”
“We are grateful for
your father’s service
and his sacrifice and his legacy,” Cruz
said.
The father of three joined the force
10 years ago and was the state’s first
law enforcement officer to receive per-
mission to wear a religious turban and
beard while on duty.
Dhaliwal was killed in the town of
Cypress after pulling over a vehicle for
running a stop sign. Investigators said
dashboard cam video shows the sus-
pect, Robert Solis, 47, exiting his car,
approaching Dhaliwal from behind
and shooting him twice in the head.
Solis was charged with capital murder.

A jury on Wednesday began delib-
erating the sentence for a former Dal-
las police officer convicted of murder
in the fatal shooting of a black neigh-
bor in his own apartment.
The state asked the jury to sentence
Amber Guyger to a minimum of 28
years for the killing. Judge Tammy
Kemp ruled the jury could consider a
“sudden passion” defense that could
reduce the sentence to two years.
Guyger, who fatally shot Botham
Jean a year ago as he ate a bowl of ice
cream, normally would face a sentence
ranging from five years to 99 years.
Kemp made the ruling at the behest
of the defense – with the support of
prosecutors.
Guyger, who is white, testified at
trial that she returned from an extend-
ed police shift and incorrectly believed
she had entered her own apartment.
She said she panicked when she saw
Jean, an accountant from St. Lucia
whom she had never met. Guyger, 31,
shot Jean, 26, with her service weapon.
A prosecutor told jurors that when
deciding the sentence for the killing in
September 2018, they could consider ra-
cially insensitive texts Guyger sent to
her police partner.
Jean family lawyer S. Lee Merritt said
the verdict should have been expected
but convictions of white officers who kill
unarmed black men are rare.
“It’s a signal that the tide is going to
change,” he said of the verdict from the
predominantly nonwhite jury. “Police
officers are going to be held accountable
for their actions.”
Rep. Marc Veasey, D-Texas, who is
black, called the conviction “a small
step toward justice for Botham Jean and
his family” but noted that all their lives
have been changed forever.
“Justice will never fully be served un-
til we as a country address the systemic
failure in our criminal justice system
and rightfully prosecute the spate of un-
justified shootings of black men and
boys in this country,” Veasey said.

Americans strongly support mak-
ing vaping companies list all ingredi-
ents and health risks on product labels
and barring teens from buying the
electronic nicotine-delivery devices, a
USA TODAY/Ipsos survey showed.
But 59% surveyed agree a ban on
vaping will drive more consumers to
the black market, the poll said.
States and cities are enacting re-
strictions as the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention investigates 12
deaths and 805 cases of vaping-relat-
ed lung injury in 46 states and one ter-
ritory. The vast majority of cases in-
volved people vaping the cannabis in-
gredient THC, alone or with nicotine.
The online survey had responses
from 1,006 adults, including 67 people
who said they currently vape.
While more than 8 in 10 people agree
people under 21 should not be able to le-
gally buy vaping devices, opinions were
split on whether to set more restric-
tions. The poll said 52% supportban-
ning flavored vape juices, but only 20%
of vapers favor a flavor ban.
Older adults also favormore restric-
tions. Among survey respondents over
55, 63% supporta vaping ban, and 72%
favor banning flavors. About one in
three adults aged 18-34 favorbanning
vaping or banning flavors.
Charlotte Raynor, 61, of Ashkum, Illi-
nois, turned to vaping a decade ago after
other tobacco-cessation productsfailed
to wean her from smoking.
“They are going overboard trying to
invoke these laws on adults,” Raynor
says. “People will go to the black market
and get them anyway.”
Poll: Americans overwhelmingly support
regulations aiming to make vaping safer
