Losing their badges: More than 15 years later, it remains one of the worst memories to come out of the Hurricane Katrina nightmare – the shootings of unarmed people on the Danziger Bridge and subsequent police coverup. On Thursday, a state oversight board revoked the credentials of five officers who were involved, Joseph Cranney reports. Bad day, great night for LSU: Thursday was a study in contrasts for LSU sports fans. First came the announcement that the school would have to "vacate" its 37 football victories from 2012-2015. Vacate. Kind a nice way of saying rules were broken. Ouch. Then came one of those moments that will barge its way into the school's huge collection of big moments: The 11th inning home run to send the Tigers into the championship round of the College World Series. You've seen it, right? No? Well, here it is. Enjoy. Comfort food: It’s technically the weekend, so how about something fun? Our food guy Ian McNulty offers up this nostalgic look back at 10 restaurants that are no longer around, yet remain dining icons. Bon appétit! Thanks for spending some time with us today.
