David Casper, longtime Baldwin Park cross country and track coach, dies - The San Gabriel Valley Tribune

Mt. SAC Athletic Hall of Fame and the Mt. SAC Cross Country Invitational Hall of Fame. He was born in Pennsylvania, but moved west and graduated from El Monte High School in 1951 after starring in track. He went on to set individual track records at Mt. SAC, and then moved on to run at Fresno State, where he graduated in 1955. Casper served as a medic in the United States Army and later was given his first cross country and track coaching job at Modesto High. Casper and his family moved to Baldwin Park in 1962, where he taught electronics and math and coached the cross country and track teams. He retired in 1995 and took up photography, which kept him involved in sports long after his coaching career ended. The Casper family is asking those who wish contribute in his name to donate to the Baldwin Park Cross County team, to Mt. SAC Athletics for a memorial to be placed under the stadium or flowers at Sunday’s Celebration of Life.

The Latest: Flowers and wine left at French embassy in WDC

The school president issued a statement saying she was saddened by the death of Gonzalez. Gonzales lived in the Los Angeles suburb of El Monte. ___ 12:11 p.m. A crowd have gathered outside the White House for a vigil near a statue of the Marquis de Lafayette, the French general for whom the park in front of the executive mansion is named. The French ambassador to the United States, Gérard Araud, thanked the crowd for coming Saturday evening and led a minute of silence for the victims of the attack. Antoine Verdeaux, 20, wore the red, white, and blue flag around his shoulders. "I'm devastated by what happened. It's horrible. It's kind of sick to think that in today's world people can do this to one another," said the college student who was born in Paris and travels there nearly every year. ___ 11:50 p.m. The spokeswoman for the Paris prosecutor's office says members of one of the attackers' family — a Frenchman born in the Paris suburbs — have been detained. Agnes Thibault-Lecuivre declined to say specify who was detained but said there were searches underway. 11:40 p.m. Mexico's government says two of its citizens were among the people killed in Paris. The Foreign Ministry has not said where the women were killed in Friday night's attacks across the French capital. It also hasn't released the women's identities, but says one had dual Mexican-U.S. citizenship and the other held Mexican-Spanish citizenship. The ministry previously reported that a Mexican man was wounded at one of the Paris restaurants attacked. It says that man was operated on Saturday morning "satisfactorily." It says he holds dual Mexican-Austrian citizenship. ___ 11 p.m. A crowd of up to 250 people have gathered for an impromptu candlelight vigil at the Place de La Republique in Paris, the site of a massive demonstration in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo killings earlier this year. Adrien Chambel, a 27-year-old law student, says the crowd is much sparser than it was in January. He says "you feel that people are petrified." His father, Bernard, 66, said there is a difference between the attacks Friday night that killed 129 people and the January assault on the Charlie Hebdo newspaper and a Kosher supermarket that killed 17 victims. He says in January "it was an attack on Jews, it was an attack on free expression." This, he said, "was an attack on a way of life — they shot without discrimination." ___ 10:25 p.m. French Prime Minister Manuel Valls is vowing to "destroy" those behind the rampage across Paris that killed at least 129 people and wounded hundreds of others. Speaking late Saturday on French television TF1, Valls declared "we are at war, and because we are at war we are taking exceptional measures." France has put thousands of soldiers onto the streets to reinforce police and other security personal in the wake of the country's worst-ever terror attack. Valls says "we will strike this enemy to destroy him. In France and in Europe, we'll chase the authors of this act, and also in Syria and Iraq. We will win this war." ___ 10:10 p.m. Outside the gate to the French Embassy in Washington, people left dozens of bouquets, signs of support and even a fe... (The Salem News)
