SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) — Minnesota Twins player Miguel Sano will not face criminal charges in the Dominican Republic as a result of his involvement in a traffic incident that injured a police officer, authorities said Monday.

Police said in a statement that the third baseman was released from custody after striking the officer with his car, leaving him with a broken leg outside a nightclub in San Pedro de Macoris early Sunday. They said officer Argenis Emilio Gillandeux was working outside the club Riversay when he was hit. Authorities said Sano was not carrying any identification and that his car was not registered.

Police spokesman Frank Duran told The Associated Press that Gillandeux said that “it was an involuntary accident, not intentional,” and he would not press charges.

Duran said that Sano would need to appear in traffic court, which would impose a fine and indemnity for the officer.

Earlier, a Twins spokesman said the ballclub was aware of the situation involving Sano and was gathering facts.

The 25-year-old Sano is a native of the Dominican Republic, where he lives when he is not playing.

The sisters were texting Saturday as Amanda Halse got into the limo. But before Amanda Halse received her sister’s reply, she died in the crash.STOCKHOLM (AP) — Yale University economics professor William Nordhaus, who won the Nobel prize in economics for linking climate change and economics, says there’s “pretty widespread acceptance” of climate change science outside the U.S. But he’s optimistic that the United States will come around.WASHINGTON (AP) — If world leaders can somehow find a way to reduce future warming caused by humans by less than a single degree Fahrenheit, it could mean the difference between life and death for multitudes of people around the world. That conclusion comes from a U.N. panel of international scientists. It says half as many people would suffer from lack of water, and seas would rise nearly 4 inches less than currently projected. The panel sees little hope for the necessary changes in government policies.

 

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Facebook is launching its first electronic device to bear its brand, a screen and camera-equipped gadget intended to make video calls easier and more intuitive. But it’s unclear if people will open their homes to an internet-connected camera sold by a company with a shoddy track record on protecting user privacy. The device, called Portal, offers people a way to chat with one another without having to fuss with positioning and other controls.
