Hello everyone and thanks for joining us this beautiful Sunday afternoon. I am Creshon Saunders at the cnn center in Atlanta. Here is a look at what's happening NOW IN THE NEWS.

Police are investigating a shooting rampage in northern Wisconsin and looking for the suspect who was said to be a law enforcement officer. Local media reports say a law enforcement officer is suspected of killing as many as 6 people at a home in Crandon, Wisconsin. The shots rang out just before 3 o'clock this morning.

Initially, it sounded almost like a hammer on tin. It was loud enough to wake me, but now, I wasn't sure it was gunshots.

That someone could do that just go crazy and shoot a bunch of people. It's just, I can't even imagine it.

The suspect is said to be armed and dangerous, stay with cnn for more information on this developing story.

Family members of a 15-year-old Florida girl say this dramatic dash cam video clearly shows a police officer used excessive force. Fort Pierce police say the girl was violating curfew and beat the officer when he tried to arrest her. He pepper-sprayed the teen during the struggle. The young girl faces battery charges and resisting an officer when her case goes to court next month.

The nationwide manhunt for alleged child abuser Chester Stiles continues this afternoon. Stiles is wanted in connection with a disturbing homemade tape that showed the rape and assault of a 3-year-old girl. Now police are taking a closer look at earlier allegations that he may have sexually assaulted a young girl back in 2001.

Labor contract talks seem to be moving forward in Detroit. Negotiators with the United Auto Workers Union and Chrysler are trying to hash out a four-year deal. The UAW has already reached a tentative agreement with General Motors, but officials warn there is still work to be done. The Union has not picked the 2nd company it will work with, but talks with Chrysler have intensified in recent days.

Wall Street is hoping for strong cooperate earnings in the coming weeks. Now that financial markets are similarly taking a term for the better, analysts are hoping Corporate America will do the same but investors are already bracing for dim results. The S&P anticipates a slight decline in total earnings, per share for S&P 500 companies.

You are now up-to-date. For more on these stories and other news of the day, cnn is the place to turn on line, TV or your wireless device.
