"I think no picture or videos can really justify the true feelings and emotions when you are so close by this wonder." That's what photographer Arnar Kristjans said after capturing this image and video of crowds watching the line of fire as lava spewed from an Icelandic volcano on Friday. Eruptions like this one began in March - the first of its kind in more than 800 years. The visuals here show a crater close to Mount Fagradalsfjall near the capital Reykjavik. While Iceland’s Keflavik international airport, the country’s largest, and the small fishing port of Grindavik are only a few kilometres away, the area is uninhabited and the eruption is not expected to present any danger. Volcanic eruptions in the region are known as effusive eruptions, where lava flows steadily out of the ground, as opposed to explosive ones. Courtesy of: arnarkristjans_photography | beyondthelands

The former police officer, who authorities say shot and killed 20-year-old Daunte Wright in a Minneapolis suburb after a traffic stop, has been charged with second-degree manslaughter, a prosecutor said Wednesday. In Minnesota, second-degree manslaughter applies when authorities allege a person causes someone's death by "culpable negligence whereby the person creates an unreasonable risk, and consciously takes chances of causing death or great bodily harm to another." Someone convicted of this charge would face a sentence of up to 10 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $20,000.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in our bio for live updates.
