This is the lead paragraph. It answers the most important wh-questions (who, what, why, where, and when) If you're in a hurry you can just read this part. It gives you a summary of wat happened.

In the second paragraph you will get additional information that is also important.

At the end of the article you will get less essential information. Usually, it is information that is funny or remarkable.
