Drew Peterson Trial

CHICAGO (AP) -- A deputy coroner has kicked off a fifth day of testimony at Drew Peterson's murder trial, which is now focused on the shoddy investigation following the discovery of his third wife's body.
   Prosecutors called Michael VanOver Tuesday to describe how he arrived at the home where Kathleen Savio was found in her bathtub in 2004. At earlier evidentiary hearings, VanOver said he didn't follow suspicious death protocols because investigators indicated Savio's death was accidental.
   Other investigators have also conceded they weren't as thorough as they could have been. For instance, no physical evidence was collected.
   Peterson was only charged in Savio's death after the former Bolingbrook police officer's fourth wife disappeared in 2007. Savio's body was then exhumed and her death reclassified as a homicide.
   Peterson has denied any wrongdoing.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Police in Oklahoma City have issued a request that residents stay away from areas that have sustained tornado damage.

Officials said Monday afternoon that victims remained trapped in wreckage and that emergency crews are trying to reach those areas to conduct search and rescue operations.

The area in Oklahoma City between Southwest 164th and Southwest 134th, and Western Avenue to Santa Fe Avenue is particularly hard hit.

Police say live power lines are down across the area and open gas lines pose a further risk.
