Eye Opener: Ferocious hail pounds the South 02:10

Underdogs

The race for the Republican nomination is really down to Donald Trump and Ted Cruz. But if neither candidate clinches the delegates needed to win the nomination before the convention, in theory, almost anyone could be the GOP's pick. We look at some of the most likely of the unlikelies.

Trump Network

During the economic downturn in 2009, Donald Trump pitched a "recession-proof" business opportunity. The Trump Network relied on participants selling health supplements and other products person to person. But our investigation shows some who bought into the idea ended up thousands of dollars poorer.

"Path to darkness"

Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who is trailing the other two Republican presidential candidates in the race for the nomination, will argue today that this year's presidential election offers voters two paths -- one of which "could drive America down into a ditch, not make us great again."

Road rage?

New video is raising questions about events leading up to the apparent road rage killing of former New Orleans Saints player Will Smith. Was it a simple hit and run that sparked the deadly shooting of the NFL star and left his wife wounded, or was there more to it?

Brutal weather

Parts of Texas are recovering this morning after a violent storm packing hail stones the size of baseballs tore up homes, cars and businesses. Even as they clean up the threat of more storms is still looming, and the destructive system is sweeping into a new region today.

Mother murdered

A Washington mother of three had planned to attend a baseball game with a date she met online, but it would be the night she disappeared. Her body was found over the weekend and police are holding her date as a suspect in the case, and checking to see if he's connected to other similar crimes.

Medicine meat

A $1 trillion coalition of global investors is urging McDonald's, Domino's and other fast-food chains to curb their use of poultry and meat raised on antibiotics, warning that overuse is increasing health risks by heightening resistance to the vital drugs.

Top truck

Only one pickup truck has received a top safety rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety after the group subjected many popular models to the so-called small overlap crash test, which slams one corner of a vehicle into a stationary obstacle.
