The 5-state manhunt for man who posted murder video on Facebook
The manhunt for Steve Stephens, suspected of killing an elderly man in Cleveland and posting a video of the killing to Facebook, now spans from Michigan to New York. Sources told CNN Stephens' phone "pinged" in Erie, Pennsylvania (100 miles NE) but police have said his location is unknown.
- The crime: Stephens, 37, allegedly posted a video around 2 p.m. Sunday showing him pointing a gun at stranger Robert Godwin, 74, and pulling the trigger.
- What Stephens has said: Maggie Green, the suspect's mother, says he told her it'd be a "miracle" if they ever saw each other again, and that he was shooting people because he was upset with his girlfriend. Police have not located any other victims.
- What Facebook has said: "We work hard to keep a safe environment on Facebook and are in touch with law enforcement in emergencies when there are direct threats to physical safety." Facebook removed the video, saying it was offensive "content."

Google settles with Russian antitrust regulators
Google has settled with Russia regulators over antitrust concerns about how the company bundles its own applications and services with its Android mobile operating system, per Reuters. The Associated Press reported that the settlement was worth $7.8 million, and includes changes to Google's policies regarding third-party applications.
The CEO of Yandex, the Russian search giant whose complaint launched the regulatory scuffle, said in a blog post that it was "an important day for Russian consumers." Google didn't respond to a request for comment.
Why it matters: Google is facing its fair share of international antitrust concerns — so this takes one off of its plate.
Update: A Google spokesperson said in a statement that the company is "happy to have reached a commercial agreement with Yandex and a settlement with Russia's competition regulator, the Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS), resolving the competition case over the distribution of Google apps on Android."

Murder in Cleveland: Facebook's latest fiasco
Cleveland police said on Sunday that a manhunt was underway after a man uploaded a video of himself killing someone to Facebook and then going on Facebook Live and claiming to have committed multiple other homicides "which are yet to be verified," according to police.
Facebook was unable to pull the Live broadcast down in real time, and failed to remove the killing video for several hours after the fact. The suspect, identified by police as Steve Stephens, is still at large.
