The party of Turkey's President Erdogan has lost control of Istanbul for the first time in years. It was soundly beaten by the opposition in a re-run of the mayoral election. The United Nations has said it’s deeply concerned about the violence in Ethiopia, after ‘’a failed coup attempt’’in which senior officials were killed, including the chief of staff of Ethiopia’s army. We hear from a law enforcement officer who speaks about a black bear found asleep in a wardrobe in the US state of Montana.
