http://youtu.be/dYF8jfEt2KM The “devastated” family of the prominent New York book publishing executive killed in a boat wreck off the Amalfi Coast said the tragedy is “impossible to comprehend.” In a statement to The Post Thursday, Mike White shared the grief his family has been experiencing since his wife, Adrienne Vaughan — the 45-year-old president of “Harry Potter” publisher Bloomsbury USA — was fatally struck by a speedboat propeller while vacationing last week. “Adrienne’s death has devastated our family. She was a beloved mother, wife, daughter, sister, niece, and dear friend and colleague to many,” her husband said. “Her absence from our lives and the terrible circumstances of her death are impossible to comprehend.” White said the family has placed their trust in the Italian...

http://youtu.be/DLy8UyqLK1M At least 55 people have died after the island of Maui was engulfed by intense wildfire flames that reduced entire neighborhoods to ashes, officials said — and the death toll is only expected to rise. Officials are still surveying the extensive damage, but already expect the tragedy to become the state’s deadliest natural disaster since a 1961 tsunami killed 61 people on the Big Island. The blazes decimated large swaths of the island, including more than 1,000 structures in the historic sector of Lahaina, where tourists had shopped and dined just days before. Rubble and blackened foundations lie where popular destination spots and landmarks stood, and torched boats were found still smoldering in the harbor, according to Hawaii Gov. Josh Green. “Lahaina, with...

http://youtu.be/LQoQ64bPo50 A rocket carrying a lunar landing craft blasted off Friday on Russia’s first moon mission in nearly 50 years, racing to land on Earth’s satellite ahead of an Indian spacecraft. The launch from Russia’s Vostochny spaceport in the Far East of the Luna-25 craft to the moon is Russia’s first since 1976 when it was part of the Soviet Union. The Russian lunar lander is expected to reach the moon on Aug. 23, about the same day as an Indian craft which was launched on July 14. The Russian spacecraft will take about 5.5 days to travel to the moon’s vicinity, then spend three to seven days orbiting at about 100 kilometers (62 miles) before heading for the surface. Only three governments have managed successful moon landings: the Soviet Union, the United States and Chi...

http://youtu.be/xwTlxFIRMcI Terrifying video shows desperate Maui residents fleeing into the treacherous ocean in an attempt to escape the wildfires that have devastated the area and killed at least 55 people this week. In the clip shared on TikTok by the account @chefjoshuamarten, multiple groups – including families with what appear to be small children – can be seen scaling the rocks into the rough surf off Lahaina while ash and smoke rains down and the flames close in. Many of the panicked escapees are wearing backpacks, and some are clinging to planks that appear to be wood and other objects in order to stay afloat. The harrowing footage – which has been viewed over 2 million times in just 10 hours – is among the latest to emerge of the vicious flames that, as of early Friday, hav...

http://youtu.be/-l1j6-NAMjo The Georgia housewife accused of plotting to murder her husband with the aid of her Bahamian boyfriend and an alleged hitman broke her silence Friday in exclusive comments to The Post . “It’s been really tough,” Lindsay Shiver said wearily as she checked in with authorities at a Nassau, Bahamas police precinct — a requirement of her $100,000 bail agreement. Looking freshly made-up and with her first change into fresh clothes in over a week, Shiver appeared in public for the first time since being released from Nassau’s notorious Fox Hill prison after a grueling 19-day stint. Shiver, 36, is accused of scheming to kill her husband, former Auburn University football standout Robert Shiver, with the help of her barman beau Adrien Bethel, 28, and alleged assassin...

http://youtu.be/VJFgotLSgXY U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Thursday (August 10) that the release of five Americans from prison in Iran was a "positive step" and the beginning of a process that he expects will lead to their return to the United States. Blinken told reporters at a new conference after a meeting with his Mexican counterpart that the State Department had spoken with the five Americans on Thursday and that he was not aware of any other Americans still detained in Iran.

http://youtu.be/cBiI0oyMWPE Passengers on a plane landing in Hawaii witnessed the devastating spread of wildfires on Maui, sharing video online on Thursday (August 10). Maui's wildfires have killed at least 55 people, a toll expected to rise, and unleashed destruction on the resort town of Lahaina that will take many years and billions of dollars to rebuild, Hawaiian officials said on Thursday. Governor Josh Green said the inferno that reduced much of Lahaina to smouldering ruins was the worst natural disaster in the state's history, making thousands of people homeless and leveling as many as 1,000 buildings. #hawaii #wildfires #maui The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and mor...

http://youtu.be/H2INKvAo37A An Applebee’s patron was tackled to the floor while holding a baby and then beaten by Wisconsin police officers as the real suspects of a hit-and-run hid in the bathroom in a horrific case of mistaken identity. Kenosha police officers were searching for the suspects involved in a serious crash on July 20 when witnesses to the crash said that they saw two black men and a woman carrying a child bolt down the road into a nearby Applebee’s, according to WISN 12 News. “(Police) came in and asked (the family) to show them what car they came in, so they could verify if they were in the car accident or not,” Jennifer Harris, the manager working at Applebee’s that night told the outlet. A separate unnamed employee informed officers of a man and woman with a child eat...

http://youtu.be/Ksnd0W466KQ Wild video shows an elderly motorist repeatedly crashing his car into Louisiana businesses before racing away in a panic. The unidentified 78-year-old man was trying to park for an appointment at Babin Physical Therapy in Kenner Tuesday when he suddenly sped forward and damaged a column, police told WDSU. A bystander then filmed as he jumped a curb and turned around — speeding backward straight into the adjoining Optical shop. The footage showed the badly damaged white sedan speeding away with its front bumper missing and the rear one barely hanging on. Miraculously, no one was injured in the incident. Police said the driver may have suffered from a medical episode because he was disoriented and unable to answer their questions. Read more at https://nypos...

http://youtu.be/gZlDj0F6D38 The estranged wife of suspected Gilgo Beach killer Rex Heuermann is battling spreading skin and breast cancer, and her insurance is about to run out because she was covered by his policy, The Post has learned. Asa Ellerup, 59, of Massapequa Park on Long Island, has fought the disease for several years and now needs about 12 to 18 months more of treatment, family lawyer Robert Macedonio said Friday. But she got her medical insurance through Heuermann, her husband of 27 years — and it will only continue as long as his Manhattan architecture business can cover the premiums, the lawyer said. That gives her about two months’ more coverage, Macedonio said. “That’s a big fear and stress on her on top of all this other stuff that’s going on,” the lawyer said. Read...

http://youtu.be/92Cvt_JffYY President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris will not travel to Maui in the aftermath of the devastating wildfires because they “don’t want to distract” from the ongoing rescue efforts, the VP said today – while at least 1,000 people remain unaccounted for. “We don’t want to distract from the resources that need to go in to the victims of this tragedy, and of course the needs of the first responders have to be able to focus on that issue and not worry about focusing on us [because] we’re there,” Harris told reporters before boarding Air Force Two for Chicago Friday, CSPAN reported. “We are coordinating federal resources to swiftly get there to support the work in terms of recovery, but to just support the folks on the ground. It is tragic,” Harris noted, ...

http://youtu.be/uTA6jiVzZbg Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Friday that Delaware US Attorney David Weiss would be given special counsel authority in the ongoing Hunter Biden investigation — raising fears among Republicans that the Justice Department was executing a bait-and-switch to hide the truth about the first family’s influence-peddling. In a brief midday statement, Garland said Weiss had asked for special counsel authority Tuesday, with the AG agreeing due to “the extraordinary circumstances relating to this matter.” Meanwhile, in a Friday filing with Wilmington US District Court, prosecutors said talks with Hunter’s legal team about a potential guilty plea to federal tax misdemeanors and a felony weapons charge were “at an impasse.” “The Government now believes that ...

http://youtu.be/yY8_tKB5e1M Squatters have trashed a multi-million dollar mansion in the Hollywood Hills, filling it with garbage, feces and graffiti – including a large message reading “f–k rich people.” The LAPD was called to the 11,000-square-foot “Villa Allegra” on Thursday afternoon with a report of “a woman screaming for help, windows breaking and a bar hitting the ground,” a spokesperson told The Post. Officers cited a man and two women at the scene and called in an air unit to search for others seen fleeing the once-resplendent Sunset Plaza Drive property. “They’re just trespassing, squatting,” an LAPD officer told KTLA 5, which was at the scene at the time. “The screaming was somebody, I think they got bit by a dog.” The 11,000-square-foot home, once listed for more than $10 ...

http://youtu.be/UDQcQgTMa-E Indicted FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried was hauled off to jail Friday after a federal judge revoked the fallen crypto king’s bail for allegedly leaking his ex-girlfriend’s love letters. US District Judge Lewis Kaplan sided with federal prosecutors who argued that Bankman-Fried had jeopardized his upcoming trial by leaking the personal writings of his former lover and business associate Caroline Ellison to a New York Times reporter. Kaplan determined there was probable cause to believe Bankman-Fried had tried to “tamper with witnesses at least twice” since his December arrest for fraud. Bankman-Fried’s defense attorney Mark Cohen said his team would appeal the incarceration order. Kaplan rejected the defense’s request for an immediate stay pending the outcome ...

http://youtu.be/6mVOAUr5xYI The Texas marketing executive behind the viral “that mother f–ker is not real” plane meltdown continued her tirade in the terminal, threatening cops and insisting the plane was going to explode once it took off. Police bodycam footage obtained by The Post shows how tearful Tiffany Gomas, 38, refused to leave the boarding area after being escorted off the jet bridge so the American Airlines flight from Dallas to Orlando could take off. Visibly upset, she continued to stare at the plane out of the window and refused to leave, adamant it would not complete its scheduled journey on July 2.

http://youtu.be/yruMcvX57tE A devastating firestorm has reduced many homes to ashes in Lahaina, a popular island tourist destination in Hawaii. On Tuesday, brushfires fueled by high winds quickly spread and engulfed Lahaina on Maui’s western side. The wall of flames is to blame for the death of at least 80 individuals, with a significant number of those remains discovered in Lahaina, government officials said at last check. It makes it one of the deadliest disasters in the US state’s history. Lahaina residents have slowly been allowed to return but forced to wait hours in their vehicles parked on the main road into town before entering the fire zone due to a nightfall curfew.
