Police didn't violate the Fourth Amendment when they detained a suspect minutes after he left an apartment that was about to be searched pursuant to a warrant, the 2nd Circuit has ruled in affirming a drug conviction. Police obtained a warrant to search a basement apartment for a gun. Prior to entering the property, officers observed the defendant exit the residence and drive away in a car. Police pulled the defendant's car over several minutes later about a mile away from the apartment. Officers detained the defendant as a result of the traffic stop and brought him back to the apartment where other officers had discovered drugs and a gun in plain view during the execution of the search warrant.

Colorado Springs police detained 1,420 drivers last Saturday in yet another ineffective effort to catch drunken drivers. As a result of detaining thousands of drivers and countless passengers, police cited eight - a whopping .56 percent - on suspicion they had driven under the influence. Meanwhile, cops working the checkpoints were not on the roads providing legitimate public safety. This part is weird: Five others were cited for open containers. Imagine driving through a swarm of police, who are stopping vehicles and looking into them, with an open beer.

LINCOLN They admit that they haven't always been on the right side of the law, but when the time came early Tuesday to restrain a man believed to be hallucinating on the designer drug bath salts, Cory Evans and Alex Andrews didn't hesitate.

They were joined by two other friends as they shadowed Smith along Main to a house on Lake Street. After he allegedly broke in, they and a resident of the house restrained him until police came about 2:30 a.m.

Syrian forces heaped more punishment Tuesday on residents of restive towns, detaining hundreds in raids or at checkpoints, firing on people trying to retrieve the bodies of anti-government protesters and even shooting holes in rooftop water tanks in a region parched by drought, witnesses said. In the southern city of Daraa, where Syrian army tanks and snipers killed at least 34 people in two days, a resident said security forces shot and killed a man as he walked out of the main Omari mosque and shouted at them: "Enough! Enough! Enough! Stop killing your brothers!

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - At least 20,000 Malaysians defied government warnings by marching for electoral reforms Saturday, as police fired tear gas and detained more than 1,600 in the country's biggest political rally in four years. The crackdown on the opposition-backed demonstration in Malaysia's main city, Kuala Lumpur, triggered criticism that Prime Minister Najib Razak's long-ruling coalition was unwilling to allow public dissent or make election laws fairer ahead of national polls widely expected by mid-2012.

What began with a bang ended with a whimper. The new Defense Authorization bill contains provisions barring the president from spending any money to bring terrorist detainees held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to the United States, or to release them to foreign countries unless they meet a rigorous security threshold. President Obama reluctantly signed the bill this week, saying he will "work with the Congress to seek repeal of these restrictions." Given the shift in power in the new Congress, it's likely his vision for closing the Guantanamo terrorist detention facility is in ashes. Closing the so-called "American Gulag" at Guantanamo was one of Mr. Obama's signature issues during the 2008 campaign and was part of his general moral indictment of the George W. Bush administration. Mr. Obama ...
