This handout includes Paul Harral's tips for writing police stories from the Covering Texas Courts workshop held by the Texas Center for Community Journalism in May 2011.
The document discusses different structures for news stories, including the inverted pyramid, narrative, and hourglass structures. The inverted pyramid is the most popular as it places the most important information at the beginning. However, narrative and hourglass structures allow for more character and story development. Regardless of structure, news stories should focus the information around the key details in the lead paragraph.
Interpretative reporting goes beyond basic facts to provide context and analysis. It refreshes news with background materials to make it comprehensive and meaningful. Interpretative reporting uses explanation, analysis and description skills. The journalist gathers facts, makes educated guesses, and draws interpretations from experts. While trying to be objective, the journalist's selection and ordering of information represents a certain viewpoint. Interpretative reporting adds analysis and speculation about causes and significance to objective facts.
Online multimedia journalism is the process of combining text, images, sound, videos and graphics, to tell an interesting story with the use of the new technologies and internet.
This chapter discusses news gathering and reporting in the digital age. It covers the main theories of the press, qualities that characterize news, types of news stories, and how digital technologies have impacted news media. The chapter also describes the news business, reporting process, news flow, role of the Associated Press wire service, and similarities/differences between print, broadcast and online journalism.

Investigative journalism uncovers information that others try to hide through in-depth investigation of issues. Reporters dig deep using various resources like interviews and public records to expose wrongdoing and spark change. Examples include the Watergate scandal uncovered by Woodward and Bernstein, the Panama Papers leak of offshore accounts, and investigative reports in India on issues like the Rafale deal, Bofors scandal, and Nira Radia tapes. Investigative journalism focuses on serious issues, takes months to get to the truth, and holds people accountable through fact-based reporting.

Tips are given to choose compelling sound bytes, write natural-sounding voiceovers, and notate timing references to aid the editor. The overall goal is to craft a script that is easy for the editor to follow in transforming it into a polished news package.
PRINT JOURNALISM II- REWRITING OF A NEWS STORYTrinity Dwarka
Rewriting involves rewriting a news story to improve clarity, readability, and uniformity. Stories may need rewriting if they are badly written, poorly organized, wordy, unprofessional, or out of date. The purpose of rewriting is to dismantle and then rebuild the information in a new, better structure. It can condense reports, link several reports on the same topic, and improve the language. Editing focuses on language, facts, grammar and punctuation, while rewriting focuses on structure, treatment and flow. The rewritten story should be an improved version that elaborates on important facts and emphasizes key elements not fully covered originally.
News must be factual, recent, and interesting to readers. It should provide balanced coverage of important events and prominent figures while avoiding subjective opinions. Different types of news can appeal to readers through elements like proximity, consequence, prominence, drama, conflict, emotions, and impact on people's lives. Accuracy, objectivity, conciseness and clarity are important principles for journalists.
The document defines and describes various terms related to newspapers and their structure. It explains that newspapers are printed publications that contain news articles, advertisements, and letters.

It also defines industry-specific terms like byline, caption, editorial, and letters to the editor that are used in newspaper reporting and layout.
1) The document discusses reporting and editing in print media. It defines reporting as the collection of facts about current events through interviews, investigations and observation. Editing is preparing news reports for publication by reading, correcting, modifying and improving the content.
2) A good reporter gathers news from listening, covering events, press conferences, reports and statements, and interviews. Qualities of a good reporter include clarity, objectivity, accuracy and specializing in a particular area.
3) Editing improves readability by condensing and reorganizing content. Hard news and soft news differ in urgency. Features provide in-depth stories while human interest stories focus on individuals.
This document discusses different types of leads that writers use in news articles. It describes declarative, descriptive, anecdotal, striking statement, prominent quote, and question leads. Examples are provided for each type of lead to illustrate their use. Common types used are declarative leads for hard news and descriptive leads for feature stories. Anecdotal leads hint at the whole story, while striking statements and quotes catch the reader's attention. The document also mentions delayed leads, which add intrigue before the main details. In the end, examples are provided to practice identifying different lead types.
This document discusses key aspects of news gathering and reporting such as:
- The main categories of news including hard news, soft news, and investigative reports.

Ashford 5: Week 4 Instructor Guidance
News Coverage Galore!
In Week 4, you’ll continue to amass advice on refining your reporting skills. Do the assigned reading, and
you’ll see that obituaries, news releases, and the basic news stories all rely on one thing—sound news
judgment!
The Deal on the Obituary Piece
One of my jobs at ABC News was slightly peculiar. I’m glad you’re sitting down! I wrote obituary summaries,
called obits, in 2005. The catch? They were for people who were still alive! The purpose was to provide
onepage life summaries for famous people. In the event of an unexpected death, the network would have
ready access to the most important facts about the person’s life; the media organization would not be caught
off guard and could break/report the news using the obit information right away. I recall writing obits for the
likes of Michael Jackson, Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, and the former President of Pakistan. Unfortunately,
you can see that the need for even obituary summaries for the living is real.
What is the overarching point here? An obituary is about the person’s life! It should offer a rundown of what
the person accomplished while alive, preferably in the order of chronology or significance. Details such as
the manner of death or scandals are not essential and should be handled with caution. Make sure you are
familiar with your organization’s policy on obituaries, because what reporters are expected to omit or include
can vary throughout the media.
Can you see why obituaries are ideal for the inverted pyramid structure? Also, I strongly advise you to
triplecheck the spelling of the person’s name. This is one simple instance where more than your credibility
will be at stake in the event of inaccuracy.
News Releases: Love them or Hate Them?
Personally, I have grown to love them! And trust me, you will too, especially on exceptionally slow news
days. You just have to be able to read between the lines. Like News Reporting & Writing says, the news
releases that journalists are provided with are usually very selfserving. Thinking of them as press releases
will help you to avoid falling for the trap of reporting the release as a means of free publicity. Knowing what
the sender hopes to gain from the media coverage that they are eliciting is important.
The news releases I appreciate most are those centered on announcements or causes. They are your news
plug for timeliness and relevance! The trick now is to take the plug and utilize it to turnover a report that
advances an underlying story.
For example, I once got a news release from a local nonprofit announcing the coming of World Aids Day in
December and detailing the rally planned. Reporting this alone would have qualified as a story by some
accounts, but journalists must take it a step further. In turn, I researched, coming to learn of the rapidly rising
numbers of women in monogamous relationships with HIV in.

Lecture Text
Joseph L. Badaracco, Jr.: Defining Moments*
This will probably surprise many of you: I’m going to say very little
about Enron. As I understand the Enron story, if you put aside the
colossal scale of the collapse, and all the disruption and harm it caused
to thousands of people—and that’s an enormous set of things to put
aside—I don’t think it is a particularly interesting story.
From what I’ve read in the newspapers, and I’ve tried to follow this
very carefully and have gotten lots of inquiries from journalists, the
folks at Enron and some folks at Anderson did a lot of things that were
wrong. They shouldn’t have done them. It was clear what was right
and what was wrong. And for the vast majority of people, there is very
little value in talking about right and wrong. Most people fortunately
have a sense of what the difference is between the two; for those who
don’t, in most cases, it is often hopeless. You have to keep an eye out
for them. If you find them in your organization, you must usher them
toward the doorway.
I’m going to talk about a different kind of problem, a different set of
problems. And these are the kinds of problems which, in the years I’ve
spent looking at managers who take their responsibilities really
seriously, are the problems that when they recount them for you, you
get a sense that their stomachs are tightening a little bit, that they’re
breathing a little faster. It might be an experience that they learned
from, something that they were glad they did once, but in many cases,
the problem is something that they don’t want to relive again. These
problems have a simple name. I call them “right versus right”
problems.
Let me give you a couple of examples. Let me start with one; since
I’ve mentioned Enron, let’s talk about the bookend to Enron. If Enron
is the biggest and worst of the corporate ethic scandals, let me talk
just a little bit about the famous Tylenol episode of the early 1980s.
I’m sure you’ve all heard the standard story. In the fall—I believe it
was 1982—six people in the Chicago area died of cyanide-laced Tylenol
tablets. James Burke, the chairman of the company at the time, has
been widely praised as a hero for, in the standard phrase, “doing the
right thing.”
Burke is an alumnus of Harvard Business School. We have a case
study of the Tylenol episode. He’s come back and talked about it. I’ve
had the chance to interview him. And, like several of my colleagues,
I’ve put a blunt question to him. I said, “Mr. Burke, look, what you did
resurrecting the brand was phenomenal.” (Think about a brand that’s
* Edited for clarity
Copyright 2002 Page 2
been implicated in a series of deaths: That was phenomenal.) “But
surely this couldn’t have been a difficult issue about doing the right
thing. You had to get that product off the shelves. Other people might
have died if there was more.

The document provides tips for pricing and positioning online advertising inventory and content. It recommends selling premium ad units like sliding billboards at a flat weekly rate rather than CPM to avoid undervaluing inventory. Ad networks are discouraged from taking up prime ad positions as they diminish the publisher's brand and existing advertiser relationships. Video content is suggested as a revenue opportunity if repurposed and promoted by the sales team. The final slides introduce Mel Taylor as an expert in online revenue strategy for local media.
The document provides steps for newspapers to succeed against digital competitors. It recommends running the website like a business with profit as the top priority. Newspapers should understand competitors like Patch and leverage digital tools to combine their unique selling propositions with new capabilities. The document also discusses overhauling compensation to incentivize digital revenue and removing "geek speak" from discussions.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Tips for covering crime news
1. Paul Harral
CRIME NEWS
T his might be the killer application for community operations, but it calls for a
reinterpretation of what crime news is. It’s more than the police blotter and fatal
traffic accidents.
At its heart, crime news is about people. People who are victims and people who make
other people into victims. And there are secondary victims as well: Relatives of the
victim and the criminal; taxpayers who foot the bill for police forces and who pay a price
in increased insurance premiums; children who grow up with parents in prison and who
follow them there.
The list is endless. But how you cover that and how you utilize it requires a great deal of
creativity. And it is hard work. If it were easy, everyone would do it. But because it is
hard, many who consider themselves “citizen journalists” would rather rip the facts off
the professional and then have opinions about the situation. That’s so much easier.
Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan is credited with the comment: “Everyone is entitled to his
own opinion, but not his own facts.” And the battle for hearts and minds will be won on
2. facts and context, not on rumor and opinion. It’s easy to be drawn into trying to correct
every misstatement. That’s impossible. Ignore them. Concentrate on tight, concise and
accurate reporting.
By the way, the platform that may eventually kill off dead tree newspapers is not the
Smartphone. It is the iPad.
WRITING POLICE NEWS
If I am correct that writing and reporting becomes even more important in the digital
age, then it is worthwhile for us to talk about structure and format of crime news
stories.
You already know how to do this. I’m just going to remind of you of it.
First: Think back to my earlier discussion about people being the focus.
All presentations of information consist of three parts — a beginning, middle and an
end. You talk this way, write emails this way and send postcards this way. What you
want to do is Capitalize on human beings’ instinctive way of formatting information.
In writing terminology, we talk about the lead paragraph of the story. It’s really
important. Scanners will give you a couple of seconds to hook them or they are gone. So
headlines and lead paragraphs become super important it today’s competitive world.
And that true in spades in digital media. More about headlines in a minute.
I’m going to remind you of a standard format in formal newspaper reporting that can be
adapted to any situation and to any platform.
We’re going to talk about the first four paragraphs of a story and about the final
paragraph.
First: Let’s talk about leads.
What is the purpose of a lead paragraph?
ANSWER: We always talked about the 5Ws and the H. What else? It’s the seller of a
story.
Favorite lead, written by Kathy Parker when she worked for me at the Florida Times-
3. Union in Jacksonville. This is not exact but it was something like this:
She fought him for two long minutes, trying to scratch his eyes out, trying to kick him in
the crotch.
Then she remembered the gun.
“Shot him,” she said. “Deader than a doornail.
“And I’d do it again.”
Let’s examine that:
OK, so it’s four little paragraphs and not one longer one. But who says the lead has to be
only one or two sentences and collected into a single paragraph?
Does it have people? Does it trigger an image in your mind? Does it tell you what
happened? Does it make you want to read more?
Here’s another. I wrote this one and this, too, is only representational. I don’t have an
actual copy and it’s not available through archive searches I had access to. The name is
made up.
Richard Johnson was a nice guy. He worked hard, taught Sunday School and was known
by neighbors as a devoted husband and father. Thursday he killed his wife and children.
Friday he killed himself.
Or how about this one:
E.J. “Big Daddy” Jones, a tough guy from a tough part of Colorado died the tough way on
a Denver street yesterday.
All of those leads have some things in common: They punch you in the stomach. They
have life in them. They trigger images in the reader’s mind that begin to play out a little
movie in your brain. It’s always good to plant that image and you can do it in a variety of
ways.
“Blue-steel revolver,” “bright yellow school bus,” “stone-cold killer.”
So that’s the first paragraph.
In our perfect world, what would the second paragraph be?
ANSWER: It’s a killer quote that backs up the lead.
4. And killer quotes come from asking a lot of questions in a way that invites that kind of
comment.
John Smith had been six years homeless when he died Friday at the hands of two
gang members who beat him to death for $1.29 cents.
“It was alcohol that really killed him,” said his older brother, Bill. “If he could
have stayed away from the bottle, he’d have been performing surgery instead of on the
street.”
By the way, note the twist on “six years homeless” instead of “homeless for six years.”
Not much but enough to grab a little attention.
So now we have two paragraphs or two blocks of copy that act like two paragraphs.
What’s the next paragraph supposed to do?
ANSWER: It’s the famous nut paragraph that summarized for the reader why he or she
should care. One Star-Telegram editor called it the “Tarrant County give-a-shit
paragraph.”
How might that look?
Let’s stay with the homeless man’s death since I’m making it up and it’s always easier to
get facts and quotes if you aren’t hampered by stuff like ethics and accuracy. Now the
story reads like this:
John Smith had been six year’s homeless when he died Friday at the hands of
two gang members who beat him to death for $1.29 cents.
“It was alcohol that really killed him,” said his older brother, Bill. “If he could
have stayed away from the bottle, he’d have been in surgery instead of on the street.”
Police officials have been alarmed at a series of killing that targeted the city’s
homeless and said that video from a traffic surveillance camera provided them with
clear pictures of the killers.
So, now we have three paragraphs:
What is the purpose of the fourth one?
ANSWER: It is the lead to the rest of the story. It might only introduce the middle
section. Or, it can list the bullet points that will be covered in the report. If you use it
that way, then each section begins with a mini-lead paragraph, a killer quote and
5. another nut paragraph.
You seldom get the perfect information you need, of course, but that’s no reason not to
try and hope.
I told you we would talk about the final paragraph of the story. What might the purpose
of that paragraph be?
ANSWER: In our perfect world, it is the summary paragraph that reflects back to the
lead. It can be text or a quote. But in entertainment terms, it’s the round-off, the
finishing move in a performance.
In very complex stories, you can write a number of separate sections and then pull them
together under an introductory section that picks up the nut paragraph of each section
to foreshadow the structure of the story.
And structure is important. It doesn’t much matter whether the reader can pick out the
structure or not so long as the writer understands it.
Think of it as a clothesline stretching from here to there and the information as
garments you pin to it in a logical order.
That format can be modified for television reports — video goes where the quotes go.
And you can use it in the next PowerPoint to argue for more budget with your boss.
SIMPLIFYING THE STORY
Almost all crime stories have some degree of complexity to them. It is the reporter’s job
to bring organization to the presentation. One simple technique is to compile necessary
facts into a concise presentation.
There are rules:
1. The facts collected into such a format cannot be in dispute.
2. They should be important enough to be included but not so important as to
demand a separate paragraph.
3. Dispose of routine facts as quickly as possible because they tend to bog down
the flow but remember that their inclusion adds greatly to the credibility of your
6. reporting.
Here’s a made-up example:
A convenience store clerk was killed and a customer wounded when gunfire
broke out at a store on Jacksboro Highway shortly after midnight Thursday.
“We’re sure more than one shooter was involved,” said Sgt. John Braun,
spokesman for the Fort Worth Police Department. “We’re reviewing security tapes now
to see if we can get good visuals.”
As police, eyewitnesses and others reconstructed the shooting:
— Several young men entered the store about midnight, leaving a driver in a
running car at a gasoline pump. At least three shots were heard. One witness said three
men fled the store and jumped into the car outside.
— The clerk was dead when paramedics and police arrived. The wounded
customer was transported by CareFlight to John Peter Smith Hospital where he
underwent six hours of surgery. His condition is described as stable but critical.
“We’ve had a rash of smash and dash robberies in this area,” Braun said. “We’re
considering this to be gang-related until that theory is disproven.”
The store – Ray’s Quickway at 2736 Jacksboro Highway – was robbed three
months ago by several men armed with semi-automatic pistols. Police have made no
arrests in that case.
“I was walking my dog when I heard the gunfire,” said ….
TEN COMMANDMENTS
OF POLICE REPORTING
1. Report only what you know and be precise about what you report. Be especially
careful about names. There are at least three ways to spell Brown. Braun. Browne.
Identify as fully as possible to avoid confusion among people with the same name,
7. especially the common ones.
2. When reporting on arrests and charges, make sure you understand the law and then
report precisely what happened. There can be great confusion around the term
“charged.” “Arrested and booked into jail for disorderly conduct” is a description of an
action that does not address charges.
3. Crime scenes can be chaotic and confusing. Be sure you know and find the ranking
officer in the field. Be polite, but do not accept “no” from someone who doesn’t have
the authority to say “yes.”
4. Stories generally go downhill as you learn more about them. Learn all you can. It will
save you trouble later.
5. When interviewing survivors of victims of a violent crime, don’t say, “I understand
what you are going through.” You don’t. Say instead, “I’m sorry you are going through
this but I need to ask you a few questions.”
6. Ask permission when covering funerals. Generally it will be given. Report in the story
either way. It builds credibility that we asked and, if we have been turned down, it
explains why.
7. Do not take advantage of someone in tragic circumstances. That shows no class.
8. Be aware of secondary effects of your reporting. Never put the sole surviving witness
to a violent crime in danger.
9. Seek out and report positive stories about the police. The bad ones will find you.
10. Count the bodies. If the number given is greater than the proven number, make sure
that you are quoting an official source in a position to know the facts. This, of course,
applies to more than bodies. Use what the Star-Telegram’s Kathy Vetter calls the “three-
minute mile rule.” Since no one has every run one, it might be a good idea to check
when someone claims they did. Do not ignore your instincts about accuracy of facts.
KNOW YOUR FIREARMS
If you are not a shooter, take a friend who is to a range and get him or her to
familiarize you with a variety of firearms.
8. PISTOLS COME IN SEVERAL TYPES:
Semi-automatic — not automatic as everyone says. (And there are two types of
semi-automatics: The double action in which the initial trigger pull causes the
round in the chamber to fire and then the pistol reloads automatically for the
next round and the Colt 1911 platform in which the pistol is carried with a
cocked hammer and the first trigger pull causes it to fire.) By the way, the bullets
are loaded into a magazine, not a clip.
Revolvers. Cartridges are loaded into a revolving cylinder. Each pull of the trigger
causes a bullet to fire and advances the cylinder to the next firing position. These
are usually double-action pistols (see above) but they can also be fire more
accurately by cocking the hammer before each shot. Single-action revolvers
require that the hammer be cocked.
Pistols come in a variety of calibers. The most common are .380, .38 Special, .357
Magnum, 9 mm, .40 Smith and Wesson and .45 Colt.
RIFLES
Generally come in three varieties:
• Bolt action. Working the bolt loads another round from the magazine. This is
what Lee Harvey Oswald used.
• Semi-automatic. Each trigger pull fires one round.
• Fully automatic. Generally reserved for police and military although in the United
States you can own one if you want to go through the necessary paperwork.
You often see rifles described as assault weapons. This generally refers to a rifle
with high capacity magazines pattered after military firearms. The M-16 is an example,
but the one you can buy down at Bubba’s Guns is an AR-15 and it is an assault-style
firearm. The difference? The M-16 is a selective fire weapon, ranging from single shot –
one round for each pull of the trigger to three-round bursts to fully automatic. The
AR-15 fires once on each trigger pull.
In the reader’s mind, if you can’t get those details right, what else did you get
wrong in the story?
9. THE JOURNALIST'S TOOLBOX
Compiled by Tom McGann
UPI Broadcast/Chicago
A kit of items journalists must have ready as they report, write and present the news of
the day:
Iceberg tips. These are extremely useful. As in ``Investigators say the scandal uncovered
today is just the tip of the iceberg.'' A very popular item.
Sighs of relief. ``New Yorkers breathed a sigh of relief today as Hillary Clinton finally
announced that she is running for the senate.'' This is a handy phrase.
Wrong Place, Wrong Time Markers. ``An innocent bystander was shot to death during a
gang battle on the West Side tonight. John Jones was in the wrong place at the wrong
time.''
Mournings -- all varieties.
``The rock world is mourning the death of ...''
``The nation is mourning ... etc''
Make sure you have a good supply of these:
o Cuddabeens. ``Police report 25 people were killed but it could have been worse.''
A wonderful all purpose tool.
o The Nightmare Card -- often played by the knowing journalist. ``A dream
vacation turned into a nightmare tonight for the Spinola family.'' Make sure you
have a stack of these versatile items.
o Brutal Murder Tags. Very effective in separating the brutal murders from the
sensitive and gentle homicides.
o Deadly Labels. They modify any event in which there is a death. Deadly accident,
deadly shooting.
o Watching and Eyeing Assurances. ``The storm is building 900 miles out in the
Atlantic, but we'll be watching it here at the weather center.'' Designed primarily
for weather people but others have found it valuable. ``We'll be keeping an eye
10. on this story and will report developments as they come in.''
o The Chauvin Ploy. ``Two Americans and 200 others died today when an airliner
plunged into a mountain peak in Turkey.''
o All-purpose closers. A.) This one is suitable for deadly accidents, brutal murders,
weddings, tornadoes, hurricanes and the return to a little old lady of her life
savings found on the seat of a bus. ``This day is one they'll never forget.'' B.)
Another serviceable closer is ``One thing's for sure, nothing is certain here.''
Heavily used on Washington stories.
o Uneasy Calm. A useful quasi-oxymoron which can be applied to everything from
hurricanes and wars to the aftermath of spring break beach rioting and racial
disturbances. ``An uneasy calm spread over (BLANK) in the wake of (BLANK).''
o Full-Blown Investigation. Larger than a somewhat-blown investigation but of less
intensity than an inquisition.
o Blue-Ribbon Probe: Somewhat less sweeping than a full-blown investigation but
peopled with big names. (Former Attorney General Ramsey Clark seldom deigns
to join the cast of anything under the rank of a blue-ribbon probe.) ``The worlds
of politics and entertainment will merge in a blue-ribbon probe of (BLANK).''
o Midair Collisions: They always seem to be in much higher demand than the one-
quarterair or three-quarterair collisions, probably because most planes fly
halfway between the ground and the altitude known as fullair.
o Somewhere Betweens: Necessary to precise descriptions, as in: ``The probe to
Pluto is somewhere between Mars and Saturn ...''
o Quiet Man Quoter: Required quotes from neighbors of the shooter after a mass
slaying: He was a quiet man. Seemed friendly. Always said ``Hello.''
o Bus Plunger: Especially in Latin America, buses regularly and invariably ``plunged
off a mountain highway killing (BLANK).'' This serial story can easily be
programmed into the computer system and the blanks filled in as necessary.
o Playing ground levelers. This tool is especially important during political season.
o Critical phrases we don't seem to be able to do without:
Completely destroyed and, better yet, almost completely destroyed
Mass exodus
11. It roared like a freight train
Self-confessed
Strangled to death
Neighbors are trying to make sense of (BLANK).
We just play 'em one game at a time.
They (fill in the blank who) came to (fill in whatever)
Police suspect foul play
Helpless victim
Raged out of control (When describing wildfires, nothing else will do.
Deep coma (Is there any other kind?)
An autopsy was performed to determine the cause of death
New record or new precedent
Old adage
Free gift
Perfect 10
Rescuers sifted through rubble
Full and complete stop
Premature death
