Good evening, I'm Anthony J. Scoobington, with WSCB TV.
Former president Pervez Musharraf said on Sunday he would return to Pakistan this month and prepare for elections, which could add to the country's turmoil. His first challenge may be to avoid arrest: On Saturday, prosecutors said they planned to detain the former army chief on charges he failed to provide security for ex-prime minister Benazir Bhutto before she was killed in 2008. He was overheard saying, "I bet if she blue balled them they way she blue balled me, then they would of let that d*ck tease die too!"
Russian police on Sunday said an 18-month-old child was swept into the sewage system when a sidewalk collapsed due to a ruptured pipe. The mother was pushing a stroller in the city of Bryansk when the ground caved in. The woman was rescued, but the child was swept away and presumed dead. The mother told reporters from our Russian sister station, VDKA, that it smelt like the baby's diapers so she wasn't jumping in. She was later seen at a club that night.
The Obama administration said Friday it is expanding the FBI's more-than-80-year-old definition of rape to count men as victims and drop the requirement that victims must have physically resisted. Lawmakers use such statistics in allocating money and resources. Pres. Obama was overheard saying, "Uh, if he got the wood, uh, then uh it doesn't exactly mean he wanted the goods."
From the folks at WSCB have a great evening. Stay hydrated.

Good evening, I'm Anthony J. Scoobington, with WSCB TV.
British Prime Minister David Cameron is expected to meet Russia Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on Monday in Russia to secure crucial new trade and warmer ties with the ally. They are set to play Jenga, and the winner has to buy dinner. A game of Madden was rumored to have been scheduled but had to be canceled due to neither person knowing who John Madden was and what the object of American football was.
More than 240 people were killed when a crowded ferry sank off Tanzania's coast early on Saturday, and about 600 have been rescued, officials said Sunday. The figure indicates that the ferry was filled beyond capacity. The majority of the 600 rescued passengers are looking into suing the ferry company. They apparently were under the impression that it was going to America due to the name of the ferry, which was the, "Amistad II."
About 100,000 people flocked to a memorial ceremony Saturday for the victims of the Russian plane crash that devastated a top hockey team. Mourners, including Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, poured into the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl's arena to lay flowers near coffins containing remains of the team's players and staff. Hockey pucks were left by those who were unable to afford flowers.
The percentage increase in suspicious activity tips in D.C. this weekend according to MPD chief Cathy Lanier was 60%. Officials said many reports were that of suspicious vehicles. 59.6% were of taxi cabs with drivers that were reported as "swarthy & talking on their cell phones."
