The city's police department posted on X that they responded to a reported bank robbery at TD Bank located at 1 N. State Road 7 at approximately 4:26 p.m. 

They said that preliminary information revealed that a black male suspect entered the bank, presented a note demanding money, and fled the scene after receiving cash. 

Plantation PD said they were able to locate the subject's car in the Fort Lauderdale area with assistance from the Broward Sheriff's Office and other agencies. 

This led to a police pursuit that ended in a crash at a barrier wall near NW 2nd Street and 31st Avenue. Chopper 4 was over the scene where the vehicle, a red Kia Soul, was driving erratically around Broward before the Lauderhill crash. 

The suspect, whom they identified as 56-year-old Tommy Duwayne Dennis, was taken into custody without further incident. He was taken to a local hospital for evaluation, but it is unclear if he sustained any injuries. 

Neighbors living in the area of NW 31st Avenue say the street is a haven for speeders, causing a safety concern under normal conditions. 

"I live in constant fear here on this corner. The other day in that same spot, a car ended up spinning around five or six times. It went like this (makes hand gestures about the car going in circles), and it could've easily crashed in here," a neighbor spoke to CBS News Miami in Spanish. 

Plantation Police say that the FBI also responded to the scene to continue the investigation with their detectives. 

No other injuries have been reported. It is unclear what charges Dennis will face. 

Artemis II commander Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen planned to hold a news conference late Wednesday, answering reporters' questions about the flight, the first piloted trip around the moon in more than a half century.

The crew had planned to take another turn at manually piloting their Orion capsule, testing their ability, as pilots and non-pilots, to precisely maneuver the spacecraft. NASA is considering opening up commander and pilot positions to a wider range of astronauts.

But Wednesday's test, the second to involve all four crew members, was called off to give flight controllers time to troubleshoot an oxygen pressurization issue in the crew ship's service module that cropped up shortly after launch.

Otherwise, the ground team reviewed the re-entry timeline and Navy recovery crews headed to the splashdown site off the southern California coast near San Diego where the Orion capsule is expected to splash down at 8:07 p.m. EDT Friday. Favorable weather is expected with light winds and moderate seas.

Back at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, scientists continued poring over thousands of photographs captured by the astronauts as they passed over the far side of the moon Monday, along with video and recorded audio descriptions of various high-priority targets.

Nine three-man Apollo crews flew over the moon's far side between 1968 and 1972, but those flights were launched when the near side was fully illuminated and the far side was in shadow.

The Artemis II astronauts were the first humans to see, with their own eyes, large swaths of the far side in daylight, giving researchers insights that could lead to a better understanding of the moon's evolution.

So far, NASA's first piloted moon mission since the final Apollo landing in 1972 has gone off like clockwork with only a small number of anomalies. One of those involved the ship's toilet, which has had problems dumping liquid waste overboard as required.

While an annoyance at times for the crew, it's been a relatively minor issue given the technical challenges of safely flying to the moon and back.

Doral police said the single-vehicle crash was reported in the area of Northwest 87th Avenue and 54th Street.

When emergency crews arrived, they said the vehicle was engulfed in flames, and two people inside the vehicle were pronounced dead at the scene.

The two teenagers inside the vehicle were identified as students from the Downtown Doral Charter Upper School.

Jeannette Acevedo-Isenberg, the Head of Schools at Downtown Doral Charter Schools, identified the students as Mateo Dávila and Alessia Tucci in a statement to families on Wednesday morning.

"Our entire community is mourning this unimaginable loss, and our thoughts and prayers are with their families, friends, our faculty, and staff at our elementary school and certainly our upper school, where they currently attended," she said in the statement. "Both students deeply loved their school, their teachers, their coaches, and their peers, leaving a lasting impact on everyone who knew them."

Acevedo-Isenberg said that grief counselors would be offered to support students and staff starting Wednesday.

"We recognize that this news is difficult to process," she said. "We encourage parents to talk openly with their children and monitor their well-being."

Friends say they're in disbelief after hearing news of the crash

Friends of the victims that CBS News Miami spoke with, said they were in shock when they heard the news.

"I was in disbelief," long-time friend of one of the victims, Rubin Abreu, said. "I didn't want to believe it, until one of my other friends had texted me privately, and I don't know, I actually have no words."

Their friends also say that they were a beloved couple. 

"I said you guys are going to get married. I told her you guys are going to get married, and I better be in the wedding," Daniele Borgia, who says she was a close friend of Tucci's, said. 

Dávila was a member of the school's basketball team, who posted a tribute to their beloved teammate on Instagram.

"Rest in peace to our beloved player Mateo Davila," the team said in the Instagram post. "You and your family will always be in our hearts."

The post has since received hundreds of likes and dozens of comments.

"He was just like a jolly person, like he never let bad things like bring him down," Abreu said. 

"She was such a light to so many of her friends, and unfortunately, we are so sad to hear about her loss," former student Camila Calderon said. 

The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office Traffic Homicide Unit has since taken over the investigation and will determine what led up to the fatal crash.

No other information was immediately available.

The Royal Bahamas Police Force is not releasing his name, citing the organization's policy. The arrest comes as the search for Lynette Hooker continues near Elbow Cay in the Abaco Islands of the Bahamas, which the Royal Bahamian Defense Force said has turned into a search and recovery operation.

The U.S. Coast Guard has also launched a criminal investigation into the case, a U.S. official told CBS News on Wednesday. The Coast Guard is taking the lead on the investigative efforts in coordination with the U.S. Attorney's Office, according to the official.

The Coast Guard's Criminal Investigative Service handles crimes on U.S.-flagged vessels in international waters. The investigation remains in its early stages, the U.S. official said.

The Royal Bahamian Defense Force on Wednesday said the rescue effort for Hooker has turned into a recovery operation, though the local authority has not requested the U.S. Coast Guard for assistance.

Lynette Hooker's husband, Brian Hooker, reported that he and his wife, who are both U.S. nationals, set sail aboard an 8-foot hard-bottom dinghy from Elbow Cay on Saturday night, according to the Royal Bahamas Police Force.

Brian Hooker told police that his wife fell overboard with the keys to the boat, causing its engine to turn off. He said that strong currents carried her out to sea, and he lost sight of her, according to police. Brian Hooker paddled the dinghy to shore, arriving hours later at the Marsh Harbor Boat Yard at 4 a.m. Sunday morning, police said.

Lynette Hooker was wearing a black bathing suit at the time, officials said.

The criminal investigation into the incident comes as Lynette Hooker's daughter, Karli Aylesworth, seeks answers about what happened on the dinghy. 

In an interview with CBS News, Aylesworth described her mother as an experienced swimmer who has been sailing for more than 10 years. She said she wants authorities to thoroughly investigate the incident, saying she doesn't believe the sequence of events described by Brian Hooker.

"For one, I don't understand how she got the key," Aylesworth said. "Brian's always driving. So he basically is in charge of the key. So the fact that my mom had it doesn't make any sense."

Aylesworth told CBS News that Brian and Lynette Hooker had split up and gotten back together in recent years. Brian Hooker declined to answer questions about the investigation when approached by CBS News on Tuesday but has since addressed his wife's disappearance in a social media statement.

"I am heartbroken over the recent boat accident in unpredictable seas and high winds that caused my beloved Lynette to fall from our small dinghy near Elbow Cay in the Bahamas," he said Wednesday. "Despite desperate attempts to reach her, the winds and currents drove us further apart. We continue to search for her and that is my sole focus."

Xavier Edwards and Jakob Marsee each had two hits and an RBI for the Marlins, who snapped Cincinnati's five-game winning streak.

Miami starter Eury Pérez (1-1) allowed four runs — two earned — and six hits over five innings. The right-hander struck out six and walked one as he shook off a difficult outing in his previous start, when he walked six and hit a batter with a pitch in four innings.

Ryan Gusto, Andrew Nardi and Lake Bachar followed Pérez with an inning each. Michael Petersen pitched around two singles in a scoreless ninth for his first career save.

Run-scoring singles from Marsee and Edwards off Reds starter Brady Singer (0-1) in the second put Miami ahead for good at 4-2.

Conine expanded the lead with a two-run drive in the third. He drove a sinker from Singer over the wall in right field for his second homer this season.

Miami native Sal Stewart hit a two-run homer in the fifth to narrow the deficit to 6-4 before Norby connected off Connor Phillips in the seventh. Norby's homer ended a string of 10 2/3 scoreless innings by Cincinnati relievers in the series.

Singer gave up six runs, five earned, and 10 hits in 2 2/3 innings.

The Reds struck quickly with two unearned runs in the first. Elly De La Cruz scored from second when Miami third baseman Graham Pauley booted Stewart's two-out grounder. Stewart then scored on Eugenio Suárez's RBI double.

The lead was short-lived, as the Marlins tied it in the bottom half on Agustín Ramírez's run-scoring double and Liam Hicks' RBI single.

Reds RHP Rhett Lowder (1-0, 1.64 ERA) starts the series finale Thursday against RHP Max Meyer (0-0, 4.66).

House Speaker Daniel Perez, R-Miami, and Senate President Ben Albritton, R-Wauchula, sent separate memos to their members alerting them they won't need to travel to Tallahassee next week.

When the regular session ended March 13 without a budget deal, "mid-April" was eyed as a likely time to return for lawmakers.

But discussions between the chambers on allocations – top-line budget numbers – that are needed to embark on formal negotiations on the final spending plan, have so far failed to result in an agreement.

"While I believe we are making great progress, it will not be necessary for you to return to Tallahassee before the special session called by Governor DeSantis. We will share a schedule for that special session as soon as possible," Albritton wrote in his memo.

Perez called the "external speculation" of a special session next week "not accurate."

"When we have an update on the timing of the budget, we will notify you," Perez stated.

Gov. Ron DeSantis has already called a special session for the week of April 20 to redraw congressional districts.

During the regular session, budget talks stalemated largely on the overall size of the spending plan. The House preferred a cut from the current budget and passed a $113.6 billion proposal, while the Senate passed a $115 billion plan.

A budget must be in place by July 1, the start of the fiscal year, to avoid a partial state government shutdown.

Gerhardt Konig, 47, was convicted after a three-week trial in which both he and his wife testified. Konig sat down slowly and put a hand over his face after the verdict was read. 

The Maui-based doctor had pleaded not guilty to second-degree attempted murder after his arrest and indictment last year on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. His charge stemmed from a March 2025 incident in which prosecutors said Konig assaulted his wife, Arielle Konig, as they walked along a scenic hiking trail in Honolulu. His conviction Wednesday was on a lesser charge, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years. 

"We respect the verdict. We respect that the jury did their job, considered the evidence, and came to a verdict that they thought fit the evidence and fit the burden of proof in this case, so, that's all I can say about that," prosecutor Joel Garner said when asked if he was disappointed Gerhardt Konig wasn't convicted of the more serious attempted murder charge.

Gerhardt Konig's defense attorney, Thomas Otake, told reporters outside the courtroom that he plans on appealing, saying he believes there were "many appellate issues" both during and before the trial concerning "some of the judge's rulings throughout the case."

Otake said he was "thankful" the jury didn't convict his client of attempted murder, which would have carried a sentence of life in prison.

The Pali Puka trail wraps around the edge of a cliff and includes a popular but remote lookout spot, where Arielle Konig alleged that her husband attacked her — first, by trying to stab her with a syringe and then by hitting her over the head with a rock. She said in her testimony at his trial that she believed her husband wanted to render her unconscious before pushing her off the cliff.

"I just started screaming, because, in my mind, he's trying to knock me unconscious, to get to be able to drag me over the edge," Arielle Konig told the jury.  

Arielle Konig said she suffered critical injuries in the attack and has since filed for divorce from her husband. Prosecutors said at the trial that she survived because a pair of hikers saw the assault happening on the trail, prompting Gerhardt Konig to stop. He fled the scene and was eventually arrested after a manhunt that lasted more than six hours, CBS affiliate KGMB-TV reported. 

Witnesses corroborated Arielle Konig's account of what happened. One of them, Amanda Morris, said in her testimony that Gerhardt Konig was "hitting [his wife] with a rock" when she saw them on the trail. Sarah Buchsbaum, another witness, testified that Arielle Konig's "face was covered in blood." Buchsbaum called 911.

Arielle Konig testified that her husband was angry with her for having an affair, and that motivated the attack. In his own testimony, Gerhardt Konig's son, Emile, said his father told him as much during a FaceTime call after it happened. Emile Konig, 19, referred to Gerhardt Konig as "the defendant" when he spoke to jurors from the stand.

Recalling the FaceTime call, Emile Konig said his father told him that "he would not be making it back to Maui, and to take good care of the younger kids, and that Ari, my stepmom, had been cheating on him, and that he tried to kill her."

Gerhardt Konig claimed self-defense when he took the stand last week, testifying that Arielle Konig grabbed his wrists, threw herself to the ground and hit him on the side of his face with a rock. 

When asked by his attorney if he "reacted to defend" himself "in the heat of the moment," Gerhardt Konig replied, "Yes." He also insisted he "was not mad" when a prosecutor asked him if text messages that he thought hinted at his wife having an affair had angered him. He told the jury that he "was upset" but had not planned to hurt Arielle Konig on the hiking trail that day and "felt horrible" when he saw his wife bleeding.

Before his arrest, Gerhardt Konig worked as a doctor at Anesthesia Medical Group in Hawaii and, earlier, as an anesthesiologist at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. He was also an assistant professor of anesthesiology and bioengineering at the university.

Neighbors tell CBS News Miami about the intensity of the tornado

By Wednesday, homeowners were assessing the damage left behind—downed fences, fallen trees, and scattered debris across several properties.

Many residents told CBS News Miami the storm felt far more intense than typical South Florida weather.

"It felt like a hurricane," neighbors said, adding that the confirmation of a tornado helped explain what they experienced.

Bobby Suarez captured the moment on surveillance video, where his family can be heard reacting in panic as strong winds tore through the area.

"Oh my God… all of our furniture is flying!" voices shouted in the footage.

Suarez said heavy outdoor items—including umbrellas and patio chairs—were pushed across his yard.

"It looked like we were on the ocean, with white caps on top," he said. "People's debris were flying into the lake."

The National Weather Service assessed the area and determined that an 85 mph tornado did touch down

The NWS sent a storm survey team to the Palm Springs North community near Miami Lakes on Wednesday morning to tour the damage left behind and later determined that a tornado did indeed touch down.

According to the NWS, the EF-0 tornado had winds estimated to be about 85 mph when it touched down around 4:45 p.m. Tuesday afternoon northwest of Miami Lakes.

The tornado was on the ground for less than a minute and for just over about a half-mile, the NWS said.

Neighbors say when they saw the destruction, they knew it was a tornado 

Erick Delgado, another resident, said he immediately suspected a tornado when he returned home and saw the destruction.

"I found my fence on the floor and figured it was a tornado," Delgado said.

Delgado, who has lived in the neighborhood for more than 20 years, said some homes nearby suffered more significant damage, including roof losses and damaged vehicles.

In another case, a large tree fell onto a car parked outside Jose Gamba's parents' home.

"It's not actually that bad—it's fixable," Gamba said, remaining optimistic despite the damage.

He added that several trees on the property were knocked down, but the home itself was not seriously affected.

Gamba's father, Carlos Gamba, described the moment in Spanish, saying he noticed debris flying everywhere as the storm moved through.

"I saw things flying all over… fortunately nothing happened to the house," he said. "But I will miss my tree."

Some residents whose fences were destroyed said they are now considering rebuilding with stronger materials, such as concrete.

Despite the damage, most neighbors say they plan to stay, with only one resident indicating they may leave the area following the storm.

The tornado uprooted trees and caused damage to some homes and cars, but luckily no injuries were reported.

In the order, U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy said the Trump administration terminated the designation "without regard for the process delineated by Congress." 

Under the Biden administration, thousands of Ethiopian immigrants in the country were granted the status beginning in 2022. The designation allows immigrants to temporarily live and work in the U.S. without fear of deportation because of armed conflict, environmental disasters or other humanitarian emergencies in their home country. The status was extended in 2024. 

The Department of Homeland Security announced in December that Ethiopia "no longer met the conditions" for the TPS designation and the protections would terminate on Feb. 13. 

"Fundamental to this case — and indeed to our constitutional system — is the principle that the will of the President does not supersede that of Congress," the judge wrote in Wednesday's order. "Presidential whims do not and cannot supplant agencies' statutory obligations." 

"Yet, in this case, Defendants have disregarded both that foundational principle and the statutory scheme enacted by Congress," he continued. 

"This stay by radical, Biden-appointed Judge Brian Murphy is just the latest example of judicial activists trying to prevent President Trump from restoring integrity to America's legal immigration system," DHS said in a statement provided to CBS News following the ruling. "Temporary means temporary. Country conditions—including armed conflicts—in Ethiopia have improved to the point that it no longer meets the law's requirement for Temporary Protected Status. The Trump administration is putting Americans first."

It's the latest setback on the issue for the Trump administration, which has sought to terminate the designation for 13 countries as part of the president's crackdown on immigration. 

The Supreme Court will hear arguments in late April on the administration's efforts to remove the status of Syrian and Haitian nationals. 

Ana Maria Knezevich's brother, Felipe Henao, expressed gratitude for the new reward.

"It's been very hard on us, especially on my mother," Henao said. "I really appreciate the FBI for keeping on the case and keep looking for my sister."

Knezevich was reported missing on Feb. 4, 2024, while living in Madrid, Spain. Investigators believe she was murdered two days before that date.

Tim Agustyniak, an FBI official, said the search for the remains is ongoing.

"We've explored several different investigative options with the FBI and our foreign partners so far," Agustyniak said. "I won't go into specifics about that, but to date, we have not been able to locate her remains."

Investigators say her estranged husband, David Knezevich, followed her to Spain in the midst of their divorce. David Knezevich was allegedly seen spray painting the surveillance camera in her apartment building. The FBI says he was then seen leaving with a rolling suitcase, which they believe contained Ana Maria's body.

"He entered a vehicle and traveled from Spain back to Serbia, where David had been before," Agustyniak said. "The FBI believes that Anna's remains were disposed of along that route heading back to Serbia."

David Knezevich was taken into custody at Miami International Airport and was later found dead in prison. Despite the subject being deceased, the FBI is continuing the case.

"The main reason, according to us, is to bring justice to the family," Agustyniak said. "The FBI does not quit on a case just because the subject in the case may be deceased."

Henao also spoke about the larger context of the case, saying his sister is not the only victim of violence against women.

"We will always keep on fighting," Henao said. "My sister is not the only victim of violence against women, so we need to keep speaking about it."

Florida state attorneys for the 19th Judicial Circuit on Tuesday said they planned to issue a subpoena seeking copies of all prescription medication records for the legendary golfer on file at Lewis Pharmacy in Palm Beach, Florida, from the start of the year through the end of last month.

Prosecutors in Martin County, Florida, want the times the prescriptions were filled, the number of pills, the dosage amounts and any instructions that accompanied the pills, such as warnings about driving while taking them, according to documents in an online court docket.

Any objections to the subpoena must be filed with the State Attorney's Office within 10 days. Neither Lewis Pharmacy nor Woods' attorney, Doug Duncan, immediately responded to emails seeking comment.

Woods, 50, pleaded not guilty to charges including driving under the influence last week. His not guilty plea came hours after an arrest report was filed that noted Woods' eyes were bloodshot and his pupils were "extremely dilated." It also noted that two pills, later determined to be the painkiller hydrocodone, were found in the pocket of Woods' pants.

The golfer told officers at the scene of the accident that he was looking down at his cellphone and changing the radio station when a pickup truck that was towing a trailer in front of him began slowing down to turn into a driveway, so he did not notice it, according to the report. 

The arrest report also noted Woods swerved into the middle of the road.

Woods took a Breathalyzer test and "blew triple zeroes" but refused a urine test, authorities said.

The 15-time major champion said last week that he's "stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health." 

Woods was previously arrested on a DUI charge in 2017 when Florida police found him asleep behind the wheel of his car. He said later he had taken a bad mix of painkillers. 

In 2021, Woods was seriously injured in a rollover crash in Los Angeles after "driving at a speed unsafe for the road conditions and the inability to negotiate the curve of the roadway," authorities said. 

Widespread showers and storms are in the forecast, especially for the afternoon hours. 

Some showers could contain heavy downpours, leading to localized flooding possible in the metro areas of Broward and Miami-Dade counties.

Eastern Broward and Miami-Dade are under a flood watch until 10 p.m., and a level two out of four flood risk on Wednesday.

Coastal showers in the morning will eventually grow scattered to widespread for midday and the early afternoon.

These showers are expected to be slow-moving, and could drop an additional 1-2 inches of rain. Isolated pockets up to 5 inches are possible.

Mild morning temperatures in the lower 70s will lead to a warm afternoon with highs around 80 degrees.

Breezier conditions arrive today and linger through the end of the workweek and weekend.

This brings a high rip current risk at the beach and a small craft advisory for the Atlantic waters.

Looking ahead to the weekend, drier and sunnier weather arrives with only 10-20% isolated shower chances on Saturday and Sunday along with highs around 80 degrees.

"People with Parkinson's should feel more excited than they ever have before," said Dr. Ihtsham ul Haq, a neurologist involved in the research.

Stem cell therapy could change the course of Parkinson's

One of the most promising developments involves using stem cells to create dopamine-producing neurons, the very cells that are lost as Parkinson's progresses. Researchers say replacing those cells could mark a major breakthrough.

"There's a potential here that we are changing the trajectory of the disease, that we're giving people back something that they've lost," Dr. Haq said. "We're giving them back their dopaminergic neurons."

But delivering those cells to the brain presents a major challenge. The brain is protected by a complex defense system that blocks foreign substances, making treatment difficult.

"The problem is, the brain doesn't like stuff to just float into it," Haq explained. "We've got a very elaborate defense system to prevent bacteria, foreign cells, cancers, things like that, from getting to the brain."

How doctors plan to deliver new neurons to the brain

To get around that barrier, doctors are developing a procedure that involves injecting the lab-grown neurons directly into a specific area of the brain known as the striatum.

"This is where the cells actually get injected into this part of the brain called the striatum," Haq said while pointing to an MRI. "And it's just a matter of getting the needle there and slowly injecting the cells and withdrawing. That's the entirety of the procedure."

While the treatment is still under development, it is already offering hope to patients like Alejandro Caceres, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's at just 29 years old.

"I'm 37 years old and I have Parkinson's," he said.

Caceres, a husband, father and stepfather, said the disease has already changed his daily life. He struggles with movement on the left side of his body and can no longer write with his left hand. Medication helps manage some symptoms, but only temporarily.

"My issue is my left part of my body. I can't write with this hand now," he said, adding that symptoms improve somewhat when he is fully medicated.

As researchers push forward, patients like Caceres say the possibility of new treatments is fueling optimism.

"As a young guy, I feel excited," he said. "I want things to happen quick so I can try the new method that they have right now. I wish I could try as soon as possible."

The missing woman was identified Monday as Lynette Hooker from Michigan, according to Hope Town Volunteer Fire and Rescue. Her husband, Brian Hooker, reported that he and his wife, who are both U.S. nationals, left Hope Town for Elbow Cay on the Bahamian island of Abaco at around 7:30 p.m. local time on Saturday, according to the Royal Bahamas Police Force. They had set sail aboard an 8-foot hard-bottom dinghy, police said.

The search and rescue efforts have turned into a search and recovery operation, the Royal Bahamas Police Force said Wednesday. 

Brian Hooker told police that his wife fell overboard with the keys to the boat, causing its engine to turn off. He said that strong currents carried her out to sea, and he lost sight of her, according to police. Brian Hooker paddled the dinghy to shore, arriving hours later at the Marsh Harbor Boat Yard at 4 a.m. Sunday morning. 

"She apparently bounced out of the boat," Hope Town Volunteer Fire and Rescue chief Troy Pritchard told CBS News on Monday.

Lynette Hooker was wearing a black bathing suit at the time, officials said.

Karli Aylesworth, Lynette Hooker's daughter, said she has "been privy to very little information" about her mother's case and called for "an intensive review of the facts and circumstances" surrounding it.

"My sole concern is to find out what happened to my mother and make sure a full and complete investigation is performed into her disappearance," Aylesworth told CBS News.

"There have been prior issues brought to my attention, which may be important for any thorough investigation," she said. "If this truly was an accident, I can understand and live with it. However, there needs to be an intensive review of the facts and circumstances of this tragic incident before that can be determined."

Aylesworth told CBS News that Brian and Lynette Hooker had split up and gotten back together in recent years. Brian Hooker declined to answer questions about the investigation when approached by CBS News on Tuesday but has since addressed his wife's disappearance in a social media statement.

"I am heartbroken over the recent boat accident in unpredictable seas and high winds that caused my beloved Lynette to fall from our small dinghy near Elbow Cay in the Bahamas," he said. "Despite desperate attempts to reach her, the winds and currents drove us further apart. We continue to search for her and that is my sole focus."

He also thanked authorities and volunteers involved in the search effort.

Police said Brian Hooker told someone his wife was missing once he made it to the boat yard, and that person informed authorities. Officers proceeded to search the surrounding area, with help from members of the Royal Bahamas Defence Force and Hope Town fire officials.

"U.S. counterparts, volunteers, the Royal Bahamas Police Force and the Royal Bahamas Defence Force are assisting with this," the Royal Bahamas Police Force told CBS News in a statement. The U.S. Coast Guard Miami Sector also provided air support to Bahamian authorities in their search Sunday.

Police have asked people in the community who may have information relevant to the probe to report what they know to law enforcement, or submit anonymous tips through Crime Stoppers.

The U.S. State Department warned of potentially deadly boating issues in the Bahamas in a travel advisory issued in March 2025, which said "boating is not well regulated" on the islands, and "injuries and deaths have occurred." The advisory also warned that watercraft, like jet skis, may come from unlicensed operators who "sometimes ignore weather forecasts." It encouraged travelers to "always follow local weather and marine alerts."

Delta cited "evolving global conditions and industry dynamics" in announcing the change, which takes effect Wednesday. Fees for travelers' first and second checked bags will rise by $10, while it will cost $50 more to check a third piece of luggage on domestic and some short-haul international flights, the airline said. 

The new fee structure is part of "Delta's ongoing review of pricing across its business," the carrier said in a statement to CBS News. The increase represents the first time in two years that Delta has hiked fees for checking bags domestically, the airline noted.

Here are the new rates:

• First bag: $45 
• Second bag: $55
• Third bag: $200

Delta SkyMiles Medallion club members, first-class passengers and other eligible customers will still be able to check bags for free, the airline said. Checked-bag rates on long-haul international flights also remain unchanged.

Southwest Airlines also hiked its checked bag fees, effective Thursday, with the first also going from $35 to $45 and the second from $45 to $55.

Delta and Southwest followed United and JetBlue in raising bag check fees since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on February 28. 

Airlines have tried to offset higher fuel costs by raising airfares and, in some cases, adding fuel surcharges to ticket costs. Flight experts encourage travelers to purchase refundable fares for upcoming travel now, in case prices rise further. 

The U.S. airline could face tens of billions of dollars in added fuel costs if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, according to Deutsche Bank analysts. If jet fuel prices remained just $2 per gallon higher for the entire year, airlines would have to boost their fares by roughly 17%, or $50, across the board to fully offset those costs, the investment bank estimates. 

The price of jet fuel was $209 a barrel for the week ending April 3, up 132% from last year's average, according to the International Air Transport Association. 

And more than 200 munitions were used.

The weapons airman survived nearly two days behind enemy lines, sheltering in a rocky mountain crevice, multiple officials familiar with the rescue said.

The recovery of the downed airman unfolded against the backdrop of escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran over the Strait of Hormuz, a critical channel for global oil trade. President Trump halted other planned U.S. military operations against Iran, redirecting attention and resources in a herculean U.S. government effort toward locating and extracting the stranded American service member, sources told CBS News.

The search zeroed in on the stranded crew member's beacon and eventually brought him to safety Sunday morning local time.

Here's the timeline leading up to the crash and the rescue. The following reporting is based on conversations with multiple officials familiar with the search and rescue mission.

Americans filing their taxes this April are facing a complicated financial backdrop. While inflation has cooled from prior highs, most households are still struggling under the weight of elevated living costs, high-rate (and compounding) debt issues and other ongoing economic hurdles. That combination has made it harder for some taxpayers to cover everything at once — including what they may owe the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) this year.

And, the consequences of an overdue tax bill can be expensive and complicated to deal with. The IRS collects billions of dollars in back taxes, penalties and interest each fiscal year, but unlike other types of debt, these tax obligations come with their own rules, timelines and enforcement mechanisms. While many taxpayers assume they'll face immediate and harsh penalties on their unpaid tax debt, though, the reality is more nuanced.

Still, waiting or ignoring the issue can quickly turn a short-term cash crunch into a longer-term financial problem. So what actually happens if you can't pay your tax bill by the April deadline this year? 

Find out how to get rid of your tax debt for less now.

What happens if you can't pay your tax bill by the April deadline this year?

Not paying your tax bill doesn't trigger an immediate IRS crackdown, but it does set a clock in motion. Here's what actually unfolds once the deadline passes.

Penalties and interest begin accruing immediately 

The IRS charges two separate penalties for unpaid taxes. The failure-to-pay penalty starts at 0.5% of your unpaid balance per month and can climb up to 25% of your total tax debt over time. On top of that, interest compounds daily based on the current federal short-term rate plus 3%. These charges aren't static, either. They stack, and the longer the balance sits unpaid, the larger the gap between what you originally owed and what you'll ultimately have to pay.

Filing without paying can play a role

One of the costly mistakes taxpayers make is skipping the filing step because they know they can't pay what's owed. That's not the best move, though, as the failure-to-file penalty is substantially steeper than the failure-to-pay penalty — up to 10 times higher in some scenarios. However, filing your return on time, even if you make no payment on what's owed, limits your penalty exposure significantly.

The IRS will contact you and escalate if ignored 

After a balance becomes overdue, the IRS sends a series of notices about your unpaid tax debt. If those go unanswered, the agency has the authority to file a federal tax lien against your assets, levy your bank accounts or garnish your wages. None of these outcomes is inevitable, but they become far more likely once communication breaks down.

What options do you have for dealing with unpaid tax debt?

If you genuinely can't pay what's owed, the IRS offers several paths that can stop penalties from compounding and collection actions from escalating, including the following:

• Installment agreements: One of the most common solutions is setting up a short-term payment plan with the IRS. These agreements allow you to pay down your balance over time while staying in good standing. Depending on how much you owe, you may qualify for a streamlined agreement that requires minimal financial documentation. This is often the fastest way to regain control of your tax situation.
• Offer in Compromise: If you're facing significant financial hardship, you may be eligible for an Offer in Compromise (OIC). This program allows you to settle your tax debt for less than the full amount owed, and approval is based on your income, expenses, assets and overall ability to pay. While not everyone qualifies, an OIC can be a valuable option to consider for those with limited financial resources.
• Currently Not Collectible status: Taxpayers experiencing severe financial hardship may qualify for Currently Not Collectible (CNC) status. This status temporarily pauses IRS collection efforts, including levies and garnishments. However, interest and penalties continue to accrue, and the IRS may review your financial situation periodically to determine if your status should change.
• Penalty relief and abatements: In certain situations, the IRS may reduce or eliminate penalties. First-time penalty abatement is available for taxpayers with a clean compliance history, while reasonable cause relief may apply in cases involving illness, job loss or other significant disruptions.

When to consider professional tax relief help

For more complex situations — particularly larger balances or multiple years of unpaid taxes — working with a tax relief professional may be worthwhile. These professionals can help evaluate your eligibility for programs like OIC or CNC status, negotiate with the IRS on your behalf and ensure paperwork is handled correctly. While it's not always necessary, this expert guidance can be especially helpful if you're unsure which path to take.

The bottom line

An unpaid tax bill doesn't have to become a financial emergency. The IRS has built-in options for taxpayers who can't pay in full, but those options only work if you act quickly and don't wait for the problem to compound on its own. Ultimately, filing on time, responding to IRS notices and exploring relief programs early on are the decisions that separate a manageable tax debt from one that spirals out of control.
