http://youtu.be/8P9iHZa7JG8 Frantic 911 calls captured the moment police responded to the scene where ​Carlethia “Carlee” Nichole Russell reported that she found a male toddler wandering on a busy highway — only to find the 25-year-old nursing student missing. “A 3- to 4-year-old child walking on the side of the interstate,” the Hoover police dispatcher is heard saying in audio obtained this week by AL.com and WVTM 13. The dispatcher advises that the caller’s red Mercedes was left running with its hazards on along I-459. “Child is going to be a white male wearing a white T-shirt and a diaper,” he tells the responding officer. “RP (reporting party) is advising there are no cars in the area where the child’s been abandoned on the side of the road.” The dispatcher adds that the woman, wh...

http://youtu.be/ej8Aglu18Io More information is emerging about the US soldier who fled into North Korea on Tuesday. Court documents and a lawyer representing Travis King reveal he faced two assault allegations, and was fined in South Korea for damaging a police car. That’s as the US military scrambles to establish the fate of King after he made an unauthorized crossing of the inter-Korean border. A Seoul court said on September 25 last year King punched a man in the face at a club several times but the case was settled. Two weeks later on October 8, police officers responded to a report of another altercation involving King, and tried to question him. According to court documents, King continued with his "aggressive behavior" without answering questions from police. After being put ...

http://youtu.be/q5ZW1P11IPw Wagner group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin was purportedly seen greeting his fighters in Belarus in his first public appearance since his mercenary group’s failed mutiny against Russia last month. A video posted to Telegram Wednesday appears to show Prigozhin promising his fighters they would stay in Belarus for some time and avoid the front lines before calling the Russian Ministry of Defense’s military operations in Ukraine a “disgrace.” “Welcome, guys! I am happy to greet you all. Welcome to the Belarusian land! We fought with dignity! We have done a lot for Russia,” a man resembling Prigozhin says in the dark and grainy video. “What is happening at the front now is a disgrace in which we do not need to take part. We must wait for the moment when we can show o...

http://youtu.be/uhad2HuRP5A Newly-surfaced video caught the moment a United Airlines plane dropped an emergency slide onto a Chicago neighborhood – where it damaged a family’s home before crashing into the backyard. The surveillance footage posted by CBS News Chicago and and NBC Chicago shows the inflatable slide plummeting to earth as the Boeing 767 was preparing to land at O’Hare International Airport on Monday afternoon. The slide damaged the roof, a window screen and a downspout of Laura and Patrick Devitt’s home on North Chester Avenue, just east of the airport, CBS News Chicago reported. ​“Landed right here in the garden, smashed all these plants – stuff like that,” Patrick told the outlet. ​”A couple of inches, you know, further to the east, and it would have landed right on the...

http://youtu.be/uE4L3bwM_fg As Republican Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose launched his campaign for Senate with a Monday call to his supporters, a pornographic parody song served as embarrassing entrance music. As campaign staffers unmuted LaRose to make his big announcement, “The Loophole” by comedy duo Garfunkel and Oates rang out over the line with the decidedly unconservative lyrics. The 2015 tune, which pokes fun at conservative Christians who choose sodomy over sex to preserve their virginities, continued to play as campaign workers attempted to mute latecomers to the call.

http://youtu.be/8STmzJyZOYI Manhattan investigators have seized $69 million worth of stolen artifacts bought over the years by a major Metropolitan Museum of Art trustee and art collector, according to a report. In the past two years, 89 artifacts from the collection of prominent New York philanthropist Shelby White, 84, were confiscated by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office’s special Antiquities Trafficking Unit after they were deemed to have originally been looted, the office revealed in April. White, the widow of legendary financier Leon Levy, has cooperated with authorities, who have not said she or her late husband knew the pieces were stolen before they were purchased. The majority of the items were taken from White’s massive collection on display inside her swanky Sutton P...

http://youtu.be/7ijf4LY2Z4c IRS agent Joseph Ziegler stepped forward Wednesday as the second whistleblower alleging a coverup in the criminal investigation of President Biden’s son Hunter — calling himself a Democrat who wanted “to do what is right.” Ziegler worked on the investigation since it opened in 2018 and was joined by his supervisory agent Gary Shapley, who oversaw the probe since January 2020, at a House Oversight Committee hearing. “I was the lead IRS case agent on the Hunter Biden investigation. I recently discovered that people are saying that I must be more credible because I’m a Democrat who happens to be married to a man,” Ziegler said. “I’m no more credible than this man sitting next to me due to my sexual orientation or my political beliefs. The truth is my credibilit...

http://youtu.be/NBJ6xHikETQ Former President Donald Trump has lost his bid to have the Manhattan District Attorney’s “hush money” case against him heard in federal court, according to a ruling from Wednesday Trump, 77, had been seeking to shift DA Alvin Bragg’s fraud case from state to federal court, arguing it “involves important federal questions.” But Manhattan federal Judge Alvin Hellerstein ruled the case should be heard in state court, finding that Trump was not acting in his capacity as president when the alleged crimes occurred.

http://youtu.be/xdqAmuPuc2g The Alabama woman who went missing for 49 hours last week had searched for one-way bus tickets to Nashville, details about Amber alerts and the Liam Neeson film “Taken” on the day she vanished, police said. Hoover Police Chief Nick Derzis told reporters Wednesday officers still don’t know exactly what happened in the time Carlethia “Carlee” Nichole Russell vanished on July 13, and they are waiting to interview her again. “That’s the $100 question, we don’t know what happened after she got out of her car,” Derzis said. “Everything else is unknown.” Russell, 25, disappeared after she called 911 to report a toddler wandering the I-459 in Alabama at 9:34 p.m. Derzis said on the day of the disappearance, Russell looked up the film “Taken”, a movie where Neeson p...

http://youtu.be/AienjYUmT-Y A top Democrat downplayed concerns that Hunter Biden received money from the same Chinese energy firm that doled out cash to the indicted informant Gal Luft. “Who cares if they had money from the same company,” Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) blurted out during a brief exchange in the House Oversight Committee hearing Wednesday. Luft has been indicted on eight counts, including for acting as an unregistered foreign agent of Chinese entities. Throughout the Oversight Committee’s hearing Wednesday on IRS whistleblower allegations, Democrats needled Republicans for taking Luft seriously, suggesting it undermines their credibility now that his indictment is public knowledge. Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) sought to fend off those attacks by underscoring the fac...

http://youtu.be/lTJ8xqI73OM A Florida jury awarded an 8-year-old girl $800,000 in damages after the child suffered second-degree burns from a McDonald’s chicken nugget four years ago, according to a local report. In May, a separate jury found the fast food giant and a franchise holder at fault for the scalding hot nugget that burned the leg of little Olivia Caraballo, then 4, after she opened a Happy Meal in the car. After just two hours of deliberation Wednesday, the Broward Country grand jury decided on the dollar amount — which is significantly lower than the $15 million the girl’s family had asked for in their lawsuit, NBC6 South Florida reported.

http://youtu.be/SctRVwRoH04 Rex Heuermann’s now-estranged wife quickly came to terms with the fact he was being accused of being a perverted serial killer, according to the top cop in the case — who said she told officers, “OK, it is what it is.” Asa Ellerup, 59, was home in Massapequa Park last Thursday when officers burst in at the exact moment her husband was busted outside his midtown Manhattan architectural firm, Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison told Fox 5 on Wednesday. “When we told the wife, she was shocked, she was embarrassed,” Harrison said. “But there was a point where we showed her certain pictures and she said, ‘OK, it is what it is.'” The commissioner did not reveal exactly what images helped Heuermann’s wife of at least 25 years accept that he may be b...

http://youtu.be/bOTHVo6qsew A lion got loose near Berlin Thursday, prompted a massive search by German authorities, who are urging residents to stay indoors. Authorities used helicopters, drones and infrared cameras to search for the renegade beast — who was captured on grainy video at one point and believed to be chasing a wild boar. About 100 police officers, hunters, and vets are taking part in the widespread search efforts, with the goal of tranquilizing and capturing the lioness — and only killing her if she poses a threat to somebody. Police say they were first informed of the missing lion around midnight Thursday when they received alarming cellphone footage of the animal lurking in the streets.

http://youtu.be/mmRpgUAFpEE Protesters angered by the planned burning of a copy of the Quran stormed the Swedish Embassy in Baghdad early Thursday, breaking into the compound and lighting a small fire. Online videos showed demonstrators at the diplomatic post waving flags and signs showing the influential Iraqi Shiite cleric and political leader Muqtada al-Sadr ahead of a planned burning of the Islamic holy book Thursday in Stockholm. The videos showed dozens of men climbing over the fence at the complex, with the sound of them trying to break down a front door. Another showed what appeared to be a small fire being set. Other footage showed men, some shirtless in the summer heat, inside what appeared to be a room at the embassy, an alarm audible in the background. Read more at https:...

http://youtu.be/EGNytpBshKo This is U.S. army private Travis King. The U.S. military on Wednesday was still scrambling to determine what happened to him after he apparently - without authorization - crossed a heavily guarded border into North Korea. "Someone ran close to me very fast and I thought, what is going on? I don't think anyone who was sane would want to go to North Korea, so I assumed it was some kind of stunt.” Sarah Leslie was on a civilian tour of the border between North and South Korea with King when he took off. "It all happened pretty quickly. I probably only saw him running for like a few seconds and that's all it would have taken to get across the border. And then, you know, a couple of seconds after I saw him, that's when the soldiers shouted and started running aft...

http://youtu.be/tD-7rZAlKcA Robert F. Kennedy Jr. blasted House Democrats who he said were trying “to censor a censorship hearing” Thursday after 102 of them signed a letter asking him to be disinvited from testifying before the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. “Many of my fellow Democrats, I’ve spent my life in this party. I’ve devoted my life to the values of this party,” Kennedy, who is challenging President Biden for the 2024 Democratic nomination, told panel members in his opening statement. “This itself is evidence of the problem that this hearing was convened to address,” he said, holding up the letter against him led by Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) and Rep. Judy Chu (D-Calif.). “This is an attempt to censor a ...
