No. 3 - A new round of lawsuits are expected to be filed Wednesday on behalf of the families who lost loved ones in the deadly mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School last year.
NBC 6 obtained a draft copy of one of lawsuits - with as many as 20 in total expected to filed starting this week - claiming the Broward School District, the sheriff’s office and others were negligent and should be held responsible for the deaths of 17 people inside the Parkland school on February 14, 2018.
No. 4 - Police in the Dominican Republic say the missing couple from New York who mysteriously vanished while vacationing in the Caribbean country are believed to be dead.
Orlando Moore, 40, and his 52-year-old girlfriend Portia Ravenelle, left Newark Liberty International Airport for a romantic getaway on March 23. They were supposed to fly back four days later. They never came home to Mount Vernon.
No. 5 - Benjamin Netanyahu appeared to be headed toward a historic fifth term as Israel's prime minister on Wednesday, with close-to-complete unofficial election results giving his right-wing Likud and other nationalist and religious parties a solid majority in parliament.
The outcome affirmed Israel's continued tilt to the right and further dimmed hopes of a negotiated solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
No. 6 - It's the end of an era for Dwyane Wade's career with the Miami Heat at the AmericanAirlines Arena. After 14 seasons with the team, tributes were held during Tuesday night's game honoring the veteran guard.
Though the Heat won, the team was knocked out of the run for the playoffs so tonight will be D-Wade's last game of his career.
