Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigns after his affair raises national security concerns

HONG KONG (AP) — Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang resigned Thursday affair raises national security concerns.

The company named Colette Kress as interim CEO. She is the current executive vice president and chief financial officer.

Huang faced growing calls to resign after his affair with an alleged Chinese spy. Late Wednesday, media reports said Huang had another extramarital affair with an Nvidia employee who reports to him.

Shares of Nvidia, one of the largest companies in the world, plunged 10% in premarket trading Thursday.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back for updates. AP’s earlier story follows below.

Megaspeed, the data center company at the center of the scandal engulfing Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, pledged Thursday to cooperate with an investigation into potential risks to U.S. national security.

Nvidia’s board, meanwhile, was reportedly meeting to discuss Huang’s future after revelations that he was having an affair with a former Megaspeed executive suspected of being a Chinese government agent. The New York Times reported Wednesday that Huang also had an affair with an Nvidia executive who reported to him. The Associated Press could not independently confirm those reports.

There was no word as of early Thursday on any outcome from those discussions.

In its first statement since the scandal broke, Singapore-headquartered Megaspeed International said Thursday that it takes its obligation to comply with U.S. export control laws “extremely seriously.”

Details about Huang’s affair with the former Megaspeed executive are unclear.

“Megaspeed is committed to working constructively and transparently with the U.S. government,” said the statement signed by its chairman and CEO, Tan Yong Pong, who also goes by James Tan.

Nvidia has said it had “no reason to believe” that either national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised, but that its inquiry would examine all available information.

Details about Huang’s affair with the woman are unclear. The New York Times reported she was Alice Huang, who also goes by the name Huang Le, and was a top executive at Megaspeed. The company prominently touts a partnership with Nvidia on its website. The two are not related.

Last month, the Times reported that U.S. intelligence agencies discovered Nvidia’s Huang had developed a close relationship with Alice Huang — and determined she was feeding information directly to Beijing. On Sunday, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that the FBI was investigating.

Megaspeed faced claims last year that it was illicitly shipping advanced Nvidia computer chips into China, but in December said there was “no evidence” of such exports. Singapore has also said it is investigating such allegations.

China has denied that it engaged in an attempt to ensnare Huang, who heads one of the world’s most valuable companies. Nvidia has become a leader in making chips that power AI and Huang has lobbied Washington to loosen limits on sales of Nvidia chips to China. In January, he won Trump’s approval for selling to China its H200 chips.

In its statement Thursday, Megaspeed said it has cooperated with the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), which handles enforcement of national security restrictions on exports of technology, and was ready to “cooperate fully with any other relevant U.S. government authority.”

It said it has hired a U.S. law firm to handle a “comprehensive census” of its computer chips and to verify its export controls.

“Megaspeed welcomes appropriate government scrutiny and is committed to demonstrating through concrete actions that it operates responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable U.S. laws,” it said.

Apart from questions over national security, Megaspeed’s finances also have drawn attention. Its total assets soared roughly 90-fold from late 2023 to 2024, to almost US$3 billion, according to Singapore corporate records.

Revenue surged to over US$294 million in 2024 from none in 2023.

Much cooler with scattered showers Thursday | Nov. 12, 2026

Marcus’ 4 a.m. Thursday forecast

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A much cooler airmass has settled into central Indiana, bringing scattered light showers and a raw feel to this Thursday. We’ll also track the potential for a few snowflakes mixing in late tonight through Friday midday, especially across northern portions of the state.

Today

Expect scattered to numerous light showers developing across central Indiana through the day. Temperatures will struggle, with highs only reaching the low to mid 40s. Northwest winds gusting to 20-25 mph will make it feel considerably colder – wind chills holding in the upper 30s for most of the afternoon.

Tonight

Periodic light precipitation continues through the overnight hours. As temperatures drop into the mid 30s, a few snowflakes may mix in with the rain, particularly after midnight. The best chance for seeing flakes will be across northern Indiana. Accumulation is not expected. Winds will remain out of the northwest at 10-15 mph, keeping that chilly feel in place.

Friday

Light precipitation wraps up through midday, with northwest Indiana having the best chance for a rain and snow mix during the morning commute. Graupel – those small, soft ice pellets – may mix in at times as well, especially between 7 a.m. and noon. Highs will be limited to around the mid 40s. Skies will remain mostly cloudy, with any lingering showers ending from west to east by early afternoon. Northwest winds continue at 8-12 mph.

Weekend outlook

Dry weather returns just in time for the weekend. Saturday brings scattered clouds with highs in the mid to upper 40s – a slight improvement from Friday. Sunday looks even better, with clearing skies and continued highs in the upper 40s. Strong high pressure builds in from the west, setting up a quiet stretch of weather heading into next week.

7-day forecast

A gradual warming trend takes shape next week as high pressure remains in control. By the middle of next week, temperatures climb into the mid to upper 50s – much more seasonable for mid-November. Wednesday and Thursday look pleasant, with partly sunny skies and those milder temperatures holding. Lows Friday night will be the coldest of the period, dropping to the mid and upper 20s across much of central Indiana. After that, overnight temperatures gradually moderate, rising back into the mid 30s by early next week.

North Carolina semi driver dies in crash on I-65 near Columbus

COLUMBUS, Ind. — A 60-year-old Charlotte, North Carolina, man died Wednesday afternoon in a crash involving a tractor-trailer on Interstate 65 near Columbus, Indiana, police said.

At about 4:15 p.m. Wednesday, witnesses reported seeing a 2020 Volvo tractor-trailer leave northbound Interstate 65 about a mile north of the U.S. 31 exit for Columbus, Edinburgh and Taylorsville in northern Bartholomew County. A news release issued Wednesday from Indiana State Police said the truck struck a guardrail, left the east side of the road and stopped among trees.

Witnesses and first responders found the driver, Anthony Bull, unresponsive in the cab. Responders treated him, but the Bartholomew County Coroner’s Office pronounced him dead at the scene.

State police Sgt. Seth Davidson continued to investigate but did not believe any other vehicles or people were involved. A medical episode may have contributed to the crash.

Northbound traffic on Interstate 65 was affected for more than three hours during the investigation and cleanup.

Troopers from the agency’s Versailles post and personnel from the Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Department, the North Carolina Highway Patrol, the Columbus Regional EMS, the Columbus Township Fire Department, the German Township Fire Department, the Indiana Department of Transportation and 31 Wrecker Service also assisted.

Marion County judge suspended 45 days without pay following misconduct investigation

INDIANAPOLIS — A Marion County judge has been suspended without pay for 45 days following a misconduct investigation into his courtroom.

The Indiana Supreme Court ruled on Nov. 5 that Judge Jose D. Salinas of Marion Superior Court 23 failed to properly handle criminal and expungement cases and failed to adequately supervise his staff, according to court documents.

Salinas is one of three Indiana judges subject to investigation for similar behavior.

Court documents show the problems spanned several years. In one case, a defendant spent 166 days in jail after being ordered released because staff failed to enter the proper release code. In another, a man was charged as a serious violent felon in April 2026 because his prior criminal case had not been properly expunged, despite a court order granting the expungement years earlier.

According to court documents, a review of Salinas’ court also found 427 pending expungement cases, including 13 cases with delays ranging from 81 to 795 days.

The Indiana Supreme Court noted that Salinas self-reported many of the errors, cooperated fully with the investigation and has since implemented new procedures in his courtroom. The court also noted he has no prior disciplinary history.

The suspension begins at 12:01 a.m. on Dec. 7, 2026 and ends at 12:01 a.m. on Jan. 21, 2027, at which point Salinas will automatically be reinstated, according to court documents.

Truck and motorcycle crash kills 1 on Indianapolis’ far east side

INDIANAPOLIS — One person is dead after a motorcycle and truck crashed in a subdivision at the intersection of Bade Road and Gleneagle Drive, police said.

Just after noon Monday, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers were dispatched to a report of a serious bodily injury crash on the far east side of Indianapolis. When they arrived, officers found a crash site that involved a motorcycle and a pickup truck.

The motorcyclist was taken to the hospital in critical condition. That person later died at the hospital, IMPD said. The driver of the pickup truck remained at the scene and is cooperating with officers. Police said they’ve not observed any signs of impairment from the driver.

Indianapolis man arrested after police uncover alleged chop shop, 16 stolen vehicles

INDIANAPOLIS — A 55-year-old Indianapolis man is facing charges after police recovered 16 stolen vehicles and nearly $4,000 in cash from an alleged chop shop on the city’s near northeast side.

According to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, Anthony Scott Owens was arrested following an investigation that began on Sunday when officers responded to the 2800 block of North Euclid Avenue to recover a stolen vehicle.

During the recovery, officers observed suspicious activity consistent with a chop shop operation — a location where stolen vehicles are broken down and their parts sold for profit.

Police secured a search warrant after learning that stolen vehicles had previously been recovered at the same location and that vehicles were being stripped for parts.

Officers executed the warrant on Tuesday and recovered 16 stolen vehicles in various stages of being parted out.

Officers also located several vehicle parts linked to five additional stolen vehicles. $3,900 in cash that was seized is being held for forfeiture.

Scott faces preliminary charges of corrupt business influence and auto theft.

Indianapolis man convicted in 2024 mass stabbing outside northwest-side bar

INDIANAPOLIS — An Indianapolis man has been convicted of attempted murder and two counts of battery with a deadly weapon for stabbing three people during a large fight outside a northwest-side bar in 2024.

Estinfil Filsmagre was found guilty of attempted murder, a Level 1 felony, and two counts of battery by means of a deadly weapon, Level 5 felonies, Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears announced.

“The chaos that unfolded that night was fueled by the defendant’s brazen decision to insert himself into a conflict and turn it into a near-fatal bloodbath,” Mears said. “He now faces decades in prison for his actions.”

The stabbing happened June 17, 2024, outside Miami’s Garden Restaurant and Lounge. Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers arrived to find blood, broken glass bottles and bloody clothing scattered throughout the parking lot. Several people had suffered stab wounds.

Filsmagre was found lying on the ground with injuries. Investigators later recovered a knife in a nearby tree line.

Witnesses told investigators that a disturbance outside the lounge escalated into multiple fights involving as many as 50 people.

Surveillance video showed Filsmagre walking toward one of the fights, despite not being involved in the altercation. He was then seen stabbing multiple people.

After the stabbings began, the crowd turned toward Filsmagre. He eventually ran from the group and threw his knife toward the tree line, according to investigators.

One victim was stabbed in the chest less than an inch from her heart. The wound punctured the pericardium, the protective sac surrounding the heart.

Reggie Wayne jokes about playing again following day of trades

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Indianapolis Colts are short on wide receivers.

That’s even more evident now following Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline.

On Tuesday, the Colts traded wide receiver Josh Downs to the Kansas City Chiefs and wide receiver Keenan Allen to the San Francisco 49ers.

Following Allen’s trade, which was prior to Downs’ trade, the Colts announced that they signed Nick Westbrook-Ikhine to the 53-man roster from the practice squad.

As a result, the team now has five receivers on the active roster (with their stats from this season):

  • Deion Burks – 6 receptions, 60 yards.
  • Ashton Dulin – 4 receptions, 84 yards, 1 touchdown.
  • Anthony Gould – 1 reception, 16 yards.
  • Laquon Treadwell – 16 receptions, 215 yards.
  • Nick Westbrook-Ikhine – 0 receptions.

Keep in mind that two of the Colts’ other receivers, Alec Pierce and D.J. Montgomery, are on the Injured Reserve list.

Colts wide receivers head coach Reggie Wayne knows he’ll have his work cut out for him the rest of the season, especially following the departure of the team’s top two receivers this year in Downs and Allen.

Wayne posted on social media that it “might be time to dust off the old Reeboks.”

Wayne, of course, played 14 seasons for the Colts from 2001-14. He finished his career with 1,070 receptions and over 14,300 receiving yards.

The Colts (2-7) will hope to snap their current five-game losing streak on Sunday when they host the Miami Dolphins (1-7). Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. EDT inside Lucas Oil Stadium.
