Official story in shooting disputed
The father of a college student who survived police gunfire outside a Westchester County, N.Y., bar that killed his best friend said the two were trying to obey what they thought was a police order to move the car. Brandon Cox's father, Thomas Parks, said Pace University football player Danroy Henry believed police wanted them to get out of a fire lane, so he drove forward. Parks said an officer climbed on the hood and shot into their vehicle. Authorities said Henry, 20, sped away after an officer rapped on his window. Police said he struck an officer who clung to the hood.

Owens finds his mirror image
Count Terrell Owens as a member of Zenyatta's fan club. The Bengals receiver paid a weekend visit to the 6-year-old mare, who is 19-0, at her barn at Hollywood Park. In California on business during a bye week, Owens fed carrots to Zenyatta. Told the horse is gentle around the barn but competitive on the racetrack, Owens said, "So she's like me: kind off the field, but somebody who shows a lot of passion on it."
