1 Somalia bombings

2 No group has yet claimed responsibility for a double vehicle bombing that killed at least 277 people over the weekend in Mogadishu. It was one of the deadliest such incidents in the country's history. Hundreds were injured. Suspicion immediately fell on Al-Shabaab, a terror group that has carried out several car bomb attacks in the city. Mogadishu has endured a lot of violence over the years. The country's President called for three days of mourning.

3 In Other News Joshua Boyle, his American wife Caitlan Coleman and their three children are safe at home in Canada. But the gravity of the five years of captivity they endured in Afghanistan at the hands of terrorists is just beginning to sink in. Boyle said their captors raped his wife and authorized the killing of their infant daughter. One of his sons had never seen daylight until they were freed. Boyle and Coleman were kidnapped in Afghanistan by terrorists in Coleman was pregnant at the time. Their three children were born in captivity. They were freed last week in Pakistan after a firefight between their captors and Pakistani rescuers. Former NFL QB, Colin Kaepernick, has filed a grievance against the NFL, claiming team owners have colluded to keep him out of the league. Kaepernick was the first NFL player to take a knee as a form of protest during the National Anthem. He has yet to be picked up by another team since opting out of his contract with the San Francisco 49ers back in March. Tom Brady set a new NFL record with his 187th regular-season win. In doing so he surpassed Brett Favre and Peyton Manning who both won 186.
