Man Dies in Quarry: A 20-year-old man died at a popular and dangerous eastern Pennsylvania quarry over the weekend, said officials. Northampton County Coroner Zachary Lysek said the Howell, New Jersey, man was swimming at an abandoned quarry in Bangor with seven other young people Sunday when he went underwater and didn't resurface, said officials. Officials didn't immediately release the victim's name. The Morning Call reports the Seven Slopes of Slate quarry has long attracted visitors because of its translucent water and 100-foot-high cliffs. But discarded machinery underwater and shocking changes in temperature in the quarry can be dangerous to swimmers.

Baton Rouge Shooting Suspect Served in Marines: The suspect in the fatal shooting of three Baton Rouge cops maintained a robust social media presence and a website called Convos With Cosmo in which he describes himself as a "freedom strategist, mental game coach, nutritionist, author and spiritual advisor.” The domain registry information for Convos with Cosmo lists Gavin Long at his known home address as the registrant, and a law enforcement source has confirmed to NBC News that a Twitter account linked to the website is the shooter's account. The website also links to a now disabled Instagram account and Twitter feed, in which he noted in a message posted mere hours before the shooting: "Just bc you wake up every morning doesn't mean that you're living. And Just bc you shed your physical body doesn't mean that you're dead.” Long officially filed paperwork in Jackson County, Missouri, last year declaring himself Cosmo Ausar Setepenra, a "sovereign citizen" of the United Washitaw De Dugdahmoundyah Mu'ur nation, a loosely affiliated network of mostly African Americans who claim to be Native American and don't believe the U.S. government has jurisdiction over them. Long was a Marine sergeant who served from 2005-2010, who was deployed to Iraq from June 2008 to January 2009, according to military records obtained by NBC News.

Anti-Doping Group Calls for Russia Ban in Rio Olympics: A letter drafted by U.S. and Canadian anti-doping leaders urging Russia's removal from the upcoming Olympics is circulating days before the public release of a report expected to detail a state-sponsored doping system that corrupted the country's entire sports program. The letter, drafted last week and obtained by The Associated Press, is being prepared to possibly be sent to the International Olympic Committee's president and executive board after the Monday release of a report by investigator Richard McLaren. The letter, which U.S. Anti-Doping Agency officials say would only be sent if the report details widespread, state-sponsored doping in Russia, calls for the IOC to act by July 26 to ensure that Russia's Olympic Committee and sports federations will not be allowed in Rio de Janeiro, where the games are set to start on Aug. 5. The letter encourages exceptions for Russia-born athletes who can prove they were subject to strong anti-dopings systems in other countries.
