 First up today, a man from Massachusetts is charged with plotting an attack on Washington D.C.. One official says Rezwan Ferdaus was never really a threat, but he was the target of the undercover FBI investigation1. Law enforcement officers has been in close contact with the 26-year-old US citizen for months. According to these authorities, Rezwan Ferdaus was planning to use remote-controlled airplanes, like what you saw just a moment ago, to attack the Pentagon in the US capital. These remote-controlled planes are pretty big. They are actually about 1/10 the size of a full-size aircraft. Rezwan Ferdaus was arrestted on Wendsday. Officials say there is no evidence that he was connected to a terrorist2 organization.

 
Health officials are trying to make sure that a severe outbreak of contaminated3 food doesn't get worse. At least 13 people have died and more than 70 other folks have gotten sick from eating cantaloupes that have been contaminated with a bacteria called Listeria. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 1,600 people get seriously ill from Listeria every year. Around 260 of those die. One CDC official said it's OK to eat cantaloupe as long as you are certain it didn't come from Jensen Farms in Colorado. If you have any doubts about it, the official says it's better to throw the fruit away.
