A man is facing murder charges after Woodland police said he rammed another man with his vehicle and then shot him. David Manuel Sanchez-Gallardo, 33, is the person accused of the crash and shooting, the Woodland Police Department said.

Sometime later, another man, later identified as Sanchez-Gallardo, drove his vehicle into the business and hit the 36-year-old.

The European Central Bank should keep a smaller balance sheet and have banks borrow from it when they need cash, ECB board member Isabel Schnabel told Reuters, just as debate on the topic heats up. With the era of low inflation and zero interest rates now seemingly over, the ECB has to decide how it wants to help supply euro zone banks with liquidity in the coming years - by lending to them or by buying bonds from them.
