How did the internet go from this? You could actually find what you were looking for right away, bound to this. I feel like I'm in hell. Spoiler alert, it was not an accident. I'm Cory Doctorow, host of Who Broke the Internet from CBC's Understood. In this four-part series, I'm going to tell you

why the internet sucks now, whose fault it is, and my plan to fix it. Find Who Broke the Internet on whatever terrible app you get your podcasts. From CBC News, the world this hour, I'm Julianne Hazelwood. We begin in Washington where a suspect has been charged with first degree murder in the killing of two Israeli embassy workers. Yaron Lashinsky and Sarah Milgram were fatally shot yesterday after leaving an event at the Capital Jewish Museum. Police say the suspect, Elias Rodriguez, shouted free Palestine

after being taken into custody. Rodriguez is also charged with the murder of foreign officials and firearm offenses. US Attorney General Pam Bondi denounced the attack. Our Jewish community must feel safe. What we saw last night was disgusting. The hate has got to stop and it has to stop now. And this person will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Prime Minister Mark Carney says he's devastated and appalled by the shootings. He's condemning what he calls a targeted attack against the Jewish community, adding his government will fight increasing

hate crimes. At least two people died when their small plane crashed into a San Diego neighborhood, but officials say miraculously there were no fatalities on the ground. Steve Futterman has the latest. The crash took place in the middle of the night, in the middle of a residential neighborhood for military families. This woman lives nearby. We woke up at about 345 to our bed shaking. I thought it was an earthquake and then all of a sudden it was just pop, pop, pop, pop,

pop. Numerous fires broke out along with a number of explosions. The plane was a private Cessna 550. Remarkably, no one on the ground was seriously injured. More than a dozen homes caught fire. Some will likely be total losses. San Diego Police Chief Scott Wall arrived at the scene shortly after the crash.

With the jet fuel going down the street and everything on fire all at once, it was pretty horrific to see. The Federal Aviation Administration is already at the scene. It was pretty horrific to see. The Federal Aviation Administration is already at the scene. It has started its investigation. There were foggy skies at the time of the crash. Steve Hutterman for CBC News, Los Angeles. Stellantis says it's pausing the production of its Canadian-made electric Dodge Charger Daytona for the 2026 model year. The company says it needs

time to assess the effects of U.S. tariffs. Industry Minister Melanie Jolie says she's being told jobs won't be affected. I spoke to the CEO of Stellantis this morning. He assured me that all jobs at Stellantis in Canada would be protected and all conditions of workers would remain the same. The Stellantis assembly plant in Windsor, Ontario will continue to produce several other models of the Dodge Charger. After more than a decade on the job, the Toronto Maple Leafs president is out. The team says it won't be renewing Brendan

Shanahan's contract. He was let go as president and alternate governor after the Leafs elimination in the second round of the NHL playoffs. The matchup against the Florida Panthers included two consecutive 6-1 home losses. Next up, a story of crime, passion, and social media. RCMP officers are trying to track down an Alberta woman who got out of jail early, allegedly using fake release papers. Paige Parsons has more. Mackenzie Dawn Hardy was freed from jail in Fort Tiscatchewan, Alberta last month,

but authorities say the papers ordering her release were faked. The 24-year-old Alberta woman has been on the run since, posting videos on TikTok mocking the authorities searching for her. They're not going to catch me because I'm one step ahead of them too fast for those piggies to come after me. Hardy claims she ran to be with her boyfriend who had been diagnosed with cancer. Many of the people commenting on her posts are urging her to turn herself in. Corporal Troy Savinkoff with Alberta RCMP says investigators are following Hardy's social media posts. Her arrest is an inevitability. It will happen.

Hardy was jailed earlier this spring facing charges of possession of stolen property, impaired driving and flight from police. Officials say the faked papers that led to her release said her charges had been stayed. RCMP is investigating where the fraudulent documents came from. Paige Parsons, CBC News, Edmonton. And that is your World This Hour. For CBC News, I'm Julie-Ann Hazelwood.
