DALLAS — Ryan O’Reilly scored two of three Nashville goals within a three-minute span midway through the second period as the Predators snapped an eight-game losing streak that tied a franchise record and beat the Dallas Stars 4-1 on Thursday night. O’Reilly also assisted on Zachary L’Heureux’s empty-net goal. Tommy Novak scored for the Predators, whose eight wins this season are the fewest in the NHL. Justus Annunen made 37 saves for his first win in two starts with Nashville after being acquired Nov. 30 from the Colorado Avalanche.

Following on with some more crime news, a 23-year-old man has been arrested after threatening a driver with a knife, stealing their car and then leading police on a high-speed chase through multiple suburbs. Armadale detectives have charged the man from Harrisdale, who is due to appear in court today, with armed robbery, failing to stop, reckless driving, no authority to drive, giving false details to police and possessing cannabis. The man was riding his bike when he allegedly approached a man driving a Nissan Pulsar sedan on Campbell Road in Armadale near the intersection of Masuli Way. He was allegedly armed with a knife and threatened the driver, who exited the vehicle before the accused drove away with the victim’s car. About 6pm, police sighted the stolen vehicle and immediately activated the emergency lights and siren on an unmarked Police vehicle and tried to block the path of the car. The accused allegedly drove the car over a verge and around some low fencing and onto Harbour Road, then failed to stop, and drove in a reckless manner through the suburbs of Armadale, Haynes, Camillo and Champion Lakes before losing control of the vehicle and hitting a tree on Railway Avenue in Kelmscott. He was taken into custody. A woman living near the Great Southern town of Albany has been arrested by police over an alleged fraudulent plan to claim close to $2.3 million from her insurance company. The 50-year-old owned and worked in a bakery in Spencer Park, which burned down in October. Police and firefighters were called to the scene and extinguished the flames, but it was too late to save the building. A staff member was taken to hospital and treated for smoke inhalation. There was significant structural and roofing damage to the premises, as well as extensive smoke damage. The damage cost was estimated at $955,000. The woman then lodged an insurance claim. Her policy stated she was entitled to $500,000 for contents insurance, and a further $2.2 million in business interruption compensation. Police have alleged she deliberately set the fire to claim this money. She has been charged with criminal damage by fire and attempting to gain benefits by fraud, and is due to appear before the Albany Magistrates Court on December 12. To some health news first and WA has recorded hundreds of cases of whopping cough in October, the largest number recorded since 2015. There were 220 reported cases that month, predominantly among school aged children. Those figures come after record low levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. The community has been urged to check they are up-to-date with vaccines. Credit: Louise Kennerley Director of communicable diseases Dr Paul Armstrong said vaccination was the best way for people of all ages to protect themselves and others against whooping cough. “If you are pregnant, it’s important to get vaccinated to help protect your baby as infants are at greatest risk of severe illness from whooping cough,” he said. “Antibodies produced from vaccination during pregnancy are transferred to your unborn baby and help protect infants against whooping cough until they can receive their own vaccinations starting at six to eight weeks old.” Armstrong said it was also important for parents and carers to get children and adolescents vaccinated on time. “Although we are seeing an increase in whooping cough across all age groups, cases are highest in school-aged children – older children and adults are often the source of infection for infants,” he said. Whooping cough causes a respiratory illness which normally starts with common cold-like symptoms such as a blocked or runny nose, tiredness, mild fever and an occasional cough. People with whooping cough can spread the infection in the first three weeks of showing symptoms.

Good morning, readers and welcome to our live blog for Wednesday, December 4. Today, the state’s high-achieving schools in the 2024 NAPLAN testing can be revealed.

Residents living on a quiet cul-de-sac in Ascot have raised concerns over a proposal by Perth Racing to build a three-storey complex for 400 horses just 10 metres from their homes. Bruce Hunt says he bought his home 24 years ago for the tranquillity. That peace could soon be shattered. In some good news for those looking to buy in Perth, the median time a home takes to sell has finally increased – up to 13 days from the nine-day low recorded for most of the year. REIWA chief executive Cath Hart said this was because there were (finally!) more new listings on the market. And, some humour for your mid-week slump, contributor Brendan Foster has written an opinion piece about the summer holidays. While public schools still have a week to go, Foster writes the school he sends his child to will finish for the year on Thursday. “I adore my son. But eight weeks of trying to keep my newly minted teenager cheerful and engaged while my partner and I hold down full-time jobs is going to take more planning than the Battle of Stalingrad,” he writes.
