The FBI is investigating the sect for historical child sexual abuse, and two Northland men have already appeared in court over historic sex offences - one was imprisoned last year.

Wildlife officials have identified the bear that killed Robert Markel. Only one of the three black bears shot after Markel, of remote Jerome in Collier County, was mauled was responsible for the 89-year-old's death, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officials said. A post-mortem exam of the bears found Markel's partial remains in the body of a 263-pound male. Tests confirmed that bear's DNA also was on Markel, in his home and on the body of a family dog.

The firefighters union says another of its ladder trucks in Auckland broke down last night. The truck has the only high-reach aerial ladder remaining in the region, after the other became stuck and stranded firefighters above a huge blaze at a recycling plant two weeks ago. Union spokesperson Martin Campbell said the remaining large ladder truck needed repairs when it was found to have a major hydraulic leak.
