Alaska emergency officials are once again trying to figure out why cell phones that weren't supposed to be triggered beeped awake with an urgent tsunami warning on Saturday night. "You are in danger," the message read on phones lit up across a huge swath of Alaska. "Move to high ground or inland now." The alerts went out a bit before 11 p.m., shortly after a magnitude 7.2 earthquake was detected south of Sand Point, off the Alaska Peninsula. Some people were supposed to get the message, like those living in Sand Point and Kodiak. But others, like Anchorage residents, were not, said Mark Roberts, who runs the State Emergency Operations Center. "The system worked, it just worked (a) larger area than it should have," he said.  
KTOO-FM 104.3 JUNEAU  
VIDEO: A man has been arrested after he allegedly stabbed an EMT Wednesday night in Manhattan. Officials say 48-year-old Rudy Garcia was picked up at 94th Street and Amsterdam at around 8:50 p.m., after a call about cardiac arrest. The ambulance was on 59th Street when Garcia allegedly pulled out a knife and stabbed the EMT multiple times in the abdomen and leg, officials said. Authorities say the 25-year-old EMT is expected to survive. Cell phone video shows emergency workers gathered by her side. An officer is shown picking up what appears to be the knife used in the stabbing. Officials say the EMT was initially treated at Mount Sinai West, before she was taken to Mount Sinai Morningside. "It's hard to think that someone that is an EMT is going to be hurt in the ambulance. It's so difficult to understand," one witness said.

VIDEO/PHOTOS: Important pieces of fire prevention equipment have once again become the target of thieves in some Philadelphia neighborhoods. Brass Fire Department Connections (FDC) are being stolen throughout Northern Liberties and Fishtown neighborhoods. Authorities suspect they are being sold for scrap, creating an expensive and potentially hazardous problem for home and business owners. Matt Dunphy keeps a keen eye on his connector stolen in the middle of the night. His security cameras captured surveillance video of one of the suspects. You can hear the sound of the brass as the thief causally walked away with the connector located outside of Dunphy's home on Callowhill Street.

VIDEO: One former Coastal Bend softball player is still keeping her love for the sport of baseball alive by earning a spot on the Women's National Baseball Team roster. Valerie Perez was a star softball player for Calallen and the Islanders. She eventually became a Corpus Christi firefighter, but never gave up on her love for playing baseball just like her brothers. She has continued to train and practice, which eventually earned her a spot on the team, where she will soon compete against the best women baseball players in the world. "My hope in this, as well as being the only one from Texas, is to bring some recognition to women's baseball," she said. "I know there's a lot of girls out there that are playing baseball with the guys from T ball, even through high school, and my teammates play in college with the guys."

VIDEO: A swath of the United States is facing a dangerous combination of extreme heat and wildfire smoke this week. More than 85 million Americans across 15 states -- from California to Florida -- are under heat alerts for Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service. The consecutive days of record-high temperatures combined with high overnight temperatures makes this heat wave especially threatening, as the longer it lasts, the more dangerous it becomes. Six more heat-related deaths were confirmed in Maricopa County, Arizona, on Wednesday, the Maricopa County Department of Public Health announced. A total of 18 people in Maricopa County, which includes the cities of Phoenix, Mesa and Scottsdale, have died this summer of heat complications, and another 69 deaths are under investigation, health officials said.
