Death toll from Venezuela's twin earthquakes reaches 1,719 as rescue teams continue searching for 46,600 missing people despite the passing of the critical 72-hour window.
Two massive quakes hit Venezuela on June 24, killing over 1,430 and leaving 50,000 missing; it was the nation's strongest quake in 126 years.
Twelve people aged 14 to 61 were shot near Toledo's Old West End Festival, with police saying at least two armed groups likely fired at each other.
