  • Man Threw His ‘Pet Racoon’ Into a Packed Bar as Revenge After Being Kicked Out, One Person was Bitten

    Man Threw His ‘Pet Racoon’ Into a Packed Bar as Revenge After Being Kicked Out, One Person was Bitten

    A Kentucky man, known locally as

    “Cowboy Cody,”

    was arrested earlier this month for allegedly releasing his

    “pet raccoon”

    inside a bar, as reported by Law & Crime. Witnesses say the suspect was banned from the establishment and did that as a form of revenge against the owner and staff.

    Jonathan Mason, 40, was taken into custody and charged with assault, criminal trespassing, and resisting arrest, according to court records. Additionally, he faces a charge for failing to maintain required insurance for his pickup truck, which rolled into a police vehicle after Mason left it in neutral during his arrest.

    As detailed in a probable cause affidavit obtained by Law&Crime, officers from the Murray Police Department responded to a report at The Big Apple Grill and Bar on Arcadia Circle. They were informed that Mason had deliberately

    “released a raccoon”

    into the establishment before fleeing the scene in a red pickup truck. Officers spotted the vehicle as it turned onto Highway 94 East. An officer turned on the squad car’s emergency lights and pursued Mason.

    However, Mason continued to drive and seemed to gesture for the officers to go around him before eventually pulling into a parking lot.

    Given Mason’s

    “history of involving firearms when dealing with law enforcement officers,”

    police reported that they approached his vehicle with their weapons drawn. Police arrested Mason and removed him from his car, which was

    “left in neutral and rolled backward,”

    hitting a police vehicle.

    An accident report revealed that Mason’s vehicle was uninsured. Officers took witness statements at the restaurant and found out he had previously been banned from The Big Apple.

    “He just slings this raccoon in out of nowhere,”

    a male witness told the police. The raccoon bit one of the employees who attempted to catch and release it outside. They were required to get a rabies shot.

    Three Teen Girls Behind Bars for Allegedly Assaulting and Tasing 15-Year-Old in NYC Subway Station

    Three 16-year-old girls assaulted a 15-year-old girl, stomping, beating, and even tasing her inside a subway station in Queens last week, according to prosecutors and sources cited by the NY Post.

    The sophomore from William Cullen Bryant High School was on her way to the nearby 46th Street M and R train station around 3 p.m. on June 2 when the vicious group reportedly followed her. Queens DA Melinda Katz described the incident as

    “an outrageous display of bullying and brutality.”

    According to the DA’s office, the group of teens cornered the girl on the staircase, repeatedly punching, kicking, and stomping on her head, face, and body, tasing her in the process and attempting to steal her backpack. The victim was hospitalized following the attack but is now on the path to recovery, officials reported.

    Two of the suspects, both juniors at the same school and residents of Elmhurst, were arrested and arraigned on Tuesday. They face charges of attempted gang assault and attempted robbery related to the incident, prosecutors stated. They have been placed in an intensive community monitoring program under probation supervision, according to the DA’s office.

    Judge Bruna DiBiase has scheduled their next court appearance for June 18. The third 16-year-old suspect was arrested on Thursday. If convicted, they could face up to 15 years in prison.

    “This will not be acceptable behavior here in Queens and I will hold students accountable for this behavior to the extent the law allows. We are grateful that the victim is recovering. The investigation is continuing into the conduct of other individuals,”

    Katz said in a statement.

  • Chris Brown Allegedly Detained In Manchester Over 2023 Incident

    Chris Brown Allegedly Detained In Manchester Over 2023 Incident

    Police have detained Chris Brown in Manchester; his arrest is the consequence of an assault he perpetrated in 2023. Brown is accused of physical assault on music producer Abe Diaw, resulting in multiple injuries and lacerations. This is coming days after the singer asked for Tory Lanez’s freedom following his stabbing incident. It is also one of Brown’s many controversial felony and assault cases.

    Chris Brown Arrested In Manchester

    Chris Brown has had a record number of assault and felony cases and legal issues throughout his career. He added to the growing list today when he came under arrest for assault. Authorities detained him in Manchester, England, early this morning for allegedly hitting music producer Abe Diaw with a tequila bottle. The incident happened at a London nightclub in 2023. The Metropolitan Police said they arrested Brown at the five-star Lowry Hotel on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm.

    “He has been taken into custody, where he remains,” they said, according to Page Six. The police force added, “The arrest relates to an incident at a venue in Hanover Square on Feb. 19, 2023. The investigation is being led by detectives from the Central West Area Basic Command Unit.”

    Abe Diaw Files Lawsuit Against Chris Brown

    Abe Diaw filed a lawsuit against Chris Brown in October 2023, eight months after Brown allegedly attacked him. He claimed the actor hit him on the head with a bottle of Don Julio 1942 in February 2023 at Tape London. Diaw added that he suffered “severe and lasting injuries” after the nightclub assault in which Brown hit him with a tequila bottle. He also claimed that Brown went on to “ruthlessly stomp on” him, kicking him in the back of the neck. Diaw said this left him unconscious for 30 seconds.

    The music producer said the attack sent him to the hospital with injuries, including “lacerations on his head and torn ligaments in his leg.” He also accused the Loyal singer of defamation, claiming that Brown spread false rumors about him and his clients. This included calling Diaw a thief to hurt his professional credibility.

    Chris Brown is no stranger to legal troubles, and his Manchester arrest highlights this. In 2024, ID released a documentary about the songwriter Chris Brown: A History of Violence, detailing his history of abuse. Several women shared their experiences of being physically and sexually abused by the two-time Grammy winner. His infamous 2009 assault case involving his ex-girlfriend, renowned singer Rihanna, also remains vivid in many people’s minds.

    The former couple had an argument that escalated into physical assault, leaving Rihanna with visible facial injuries. The Fenty Beauty founder also needed to be hospitalized. Chris Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault and was sentenced to community labor, five years’ probation, and domestic violence counseling.

    In 2017, he again got into trouble with the law over another ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran. Tran got a five-year restraining order against the Under the Influence singer following his aggressive behavior. Brown tried to make the actress return the money and gifts he had presented to her when they dated.

    Chris Brown’s reps are yet to comment on his Manchester arrest. However, fans worry that the hip-hop star may be headed for prison again.

    Man Used Hot Iron, Burning 60% of Girlfriend’s Body Because He Believed She Was Cheating

    A Pennsylvania man is facing charges after reportedly using a clothes iron to burn 60% of his girlfriend’s body because he believed she was being unfaithful, as reported by Law & Crime

    Burton L. Byrd allegedly kept the woman captive in their Pittsburgh apartment from Saturday to Tuesday, preventing her from getting medical help, as detailed in a probable cause arrest affidavit obtained by Law & Crime. When he finally let her go, he instructed her to fabricate a story about being attacked near a Wendy’s and threatened to harm her family if she told the truth, according to the affidavit.

    Details of Assault

    Byrd is accused of forcing the woman to undress and tying her hands with shoelaces. According to police, he then assaulted her with a belt and punched her in the face. Officers observed bruising around her eye and broken blood vessels in her right eye, indicating she had been hit multiple times. The victim claimed that Byrd then plugged in the iron and began tapping it against her body. 

    After stating that the iron “wasn’t hot enough,” he waited for it to heat up and pressed it against different areas of her body while demanding to know if she had been with another man, according to police reports. “After about maybe six times of him hitting me with the iron, I just made up a story telling him that I cheated on him just to get him to stop,” she told authorities. 

    The suspect tried to treat the victim’s injuries himself before she insisted on seeking medical attention. After she visited one hospital, she was moved to a facility with a burn unit, according to police. Byrd is facing multiple charges, including aggravated assault, kidnapping, witness intimidation, and false imprisonment. It is not known if he has legal representation at this time.

    35-Year-Old Man Allegedly Burns Girlfriend, 64, with Hot Soup for ‘Talking Too Much’

    A 35-year-old man in Texas is in custody after his girlfriend, 67, alleged that he deliberately poured hot soup on her, resulting in third-degree burns, per PEOPLE

    Alexander Alton McDavid was taken into custody on multiple charges, including assault causing bodily injury with a prior conviction, injury to an elderly person, continuous violence against family members, resisting arrest, and making terroristic threats against family, as indicated by jail records. According to Law & Crime, he remained in McLennan County Jail on a $130,000 bond as of Monday afternoon.

    An arrest affidavit, reported by KWTX, provides further details regarding the allegations against him. According to the documents, the victim stated that on February 28, while at their shared apartment, McDavid became angry and told her she was talking too much.

  • NYC Woman Who Struck Pro-Life Activist in the Face Says She Was Provoked into Violence

    NYC Woman Who Struck Pro-Life Activist in the Face Says She Was Provoked into Violence

    The woman who punched a pro-life reporter in the face during a recorded interview issued an apology on Saturday. However, she argued that her “antagonistic” target provoked her into the act of violence, per the NY Post.

    Brianna Rivers, from the Bronx, acknowledged that she was in the wrong for hitting Savannah Craven Antao, a reporter for the pro-life organization Live Action.

    “To Savannah, I sincerely apologize but cannot sit around and allow you to continue pushing this one sided narrative. I understand hands being put on someone is never the answer, but throwing rocks and hiding hands is worse,” Rivers wrote in a Facebook post. “She knows the truth and she needs to release the footage in its entirety. Savannah is a professional antagonist not a ‘reporter’ and the truth will be told.”

    Rivers Shares Her Side of the Story

    Rivers posted a message claiming that Craven Antao was deliberately provoking her during their street interview in Harlem. In the video, Craven Antao continually interrupted Rivers while she was speaking. Rivers also alleged that Craven Antao edited the video to omit what she referred to as “relentless antagonization” and the moments that led up to the punch.

    “I will not allow my image to be defamed by this woman’s actions. Anyone who knows me knows how respectful I am, I don’t even litter, there’s no way you believe I’m punching people for disagreeing with my POV,” wrote Rivers. In the video, Antao can be heard accusing Rivers of being “OK with killing babies in foster care and killing children that have been abused.”

    “That’s not the point. What I’m saying is …” Rivers said before throwing a series of punches straight at Craven Antao’s face before walking away. The conservative influencer, known for posting videos that mock and criticize progressive women, ended up with a black eye, two stitches below her eyebrow, considerable pain in her nose, and a significant emotional toll, she told The Post.

    Rapper Mellow Rackz has been accused of assaulting her boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend and taking her phone following a heated confrontation in a hotel lobby in Los Angeles, as reported by TMZ.  

    The 22-year-old, who has over 1 million followers on Instagram, reportedly became violent after coming face-to-face with the woman early Monday morning, as stated by TMZ, citing law enforcement sources. 

    While Rackz has not been arrested in connection with the incident, sources claim she struck the ex-girlfriend multiple times in the face, leaving visible red marks. It’s also alleged that she took the ex’s phone after it fell to the ground during the altercation. “What are you going to do about it?” the rapper allegedly told the woman before going to her hotel room, according to the outlet.
