The manhunt for a shooting suspect in Kentucky stretched into a third day. Princess Kate shared a joyful update on her ordeal with cancer. And Apple's latest iPhones are getting some fresh new features.

👋Hey, y'all! Laura Davis here. I hope you had a relaxing weekend. Now, let's get caught up on Monday's news.

But first: An astonishing tale! 🐾 This cat was missing ... for 11 years. See the sweet reunion.

The manhunt continues

Schools for thousands of students in multiple Kentucky counties were closed Monday and residents were warned to lock their doors, keep porch lights on and remain vigilant as the hunt for a gunman who wounded five people in an interstate shooting spree rolled into its third day. 👉 Here's what we know.

Searching for a suspect: Warning that the suspect should be considered armed and dangerous, authorities from the Laurel County Sheriff's Office said they had recovered a silver Honda SUV, an AR rifle and hundreds of rounds of ammunition in their search for Joseph A. Couch. Officials said Couch faces five counts of attempted murder and five counts of first-degree assault stemming from the incident Saturday, in which at least a dozen vehicles were struck by bullets.

A royal cancer update

The Princess of Wales is done with chemo. Kate, 42, shared a video on Monday revealing she has completed her chemotherapy treatment. How's she feeling? "Relief." Kate first shared in March that she was diagnosed with cancer after having abdominal surgery in January. Her focus is now on "doing what I can to stay cancer-free," she said Monday, and despite finishing chemo, her "path to healing and full recovery" remains "long." 👉 See Kate's update.

James Earl Jones dies at 93

James Earl Jones, whose acting career was every bit as rich and resonant as the iconic bass voice that gave sinister malevolence to Darth Vader in the "Star Wars" films, died Monday. He was 93.

An iconic legacy: Jones was an acclaimed star of stage and screen, winning Tony, Emmy and Grammy awards, though his unmistakable voice later became as famous as his face. He invited generations of TV viewers with the signature "This is CNN" line for the cable news channel, had parental gravitas as the brave Mufasa in Disney's classic 1994 animated "The Lion King," and was perhaps most famous for his signature lines ("I am your father") as Vader. 👉 Read more about his life and career.
