New research suggests that Americans' risk for developing dementia over a lifetime may be higher than previously thought. A study published today in Nature Medicine finds that after age 55, people have up to a 4 in 10 chance of eventually developing dementia — if they live long enough. That's more than double older estimates. That risk translates into an estimated half-million cases this year - rising to 1 million new cases a year by 2060, according to the study. The risk is highest after age 75, but doctors say there are ways to reduce that risk. Controlling blood pressure, diabetes and cholesterol is good for both your brain and your heart. They also urge staying physically and socially active. Image credit: Getty Images

Police used an iPad to track down a little boy in an SUV that was stolen from Strawberry Mansion Tuesday night. Shortly before midnight, police said a woman left her Toyota RAV4 running with her son inside while she went into a family member’s house, located near 30th Street and Susquehanna Avenue.
