Crime & Community: A man was fatally shot early Sunday in Franklinton, Louisiana; police arrested Michael Martin, 23, and booked him on second-degree murder. World Affairs: Ukraine launched nearly 600 drones overnight on Russia, killing four, as Libya’s LNA staged major exercises billed as a message to allies and rivals.
