    1-Year-Old Child Fatally Struck by Uber Driver Outside of Houston Home

    A tragic incident occurred in Houston when a 1-year-old girl lost her life after being struck by an Uber driver, according to the Associated Press. 

    The driver, who had just dropped off the girl’s family at their apartment complex did not notice her in front of his car as he drove away, reports note. In response, the family members of the girl immediately pulled the driver out of his vehicle and physically attacked him.

    “It’s just an unfortunate tragedy at this point,”

    said sheriff’s office Lt. K. Benoit.

    According to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, the driver believed that his path was clear after dropping off the girl and her family. However, as he continued driving, he accidentally struck the girl and she was dragged for a short distance. Surveillance video shows the girl walking alone in front of the car just before the collision occurred.

    “We as parents, relatives, custodians of children, we have to just be a lot more alert, hold their hands, guide them to a safe place, and then watch the driver pull away,”

    Benoit said.

    The driver was taken to a hospital and received medical treatment for injuries that were not life-threatening, as reported by Gonzalez. The investigation is ongoing, and at this time, no charges have been filed.

    Mother Charged After Sexually Assaulting Her Daughter and Inviting Other Men Including A Sex Offender To Join

    A Texas mother has been accused of sexually abusing her own 10-year-old daughter and making plans for a registered sex offender to join them in the abuse, reports the New York Post. 37-year-old Elizabeth Spaeth admitted to engaging in sexual activity with her underage daughter on numerous occasions, which led to her arrest. Her fiancé, Garrett Andrew Bailey, 35, was also charged with sexual abuse after Spaeth confessed to letting him abuse her daughter at least three different times. Additionally, registered sex offender 40-year-old Jarrod Kirkus was arrested after Spaeth reached out to him on Snapchat to arrange for him to abuse her daughter.

    The alarming case unfolded after officials responded to a call at an apartment complex and discovered Kirkus alone with the unnamed 10-year-old girl. He was taken into custody on a warrant for distribution of child pornography. Further investigation disclosed that there was no connection between Kirkus and the child, which led authorities to her mother. She admitted to facilitating the meeting between her daughter and Kirkus and confessed to having sex with her daughter numerous times. She also disclosed that Bailey had joined in on the abuse and had even sexually assaulted the girl once without Spaeth present. According to an affidavit, Bailey started abusing the girl when she was just 8 years old. 

    Following Spaeth’s arrest, the 10-year-old girl and another child were taken from the residence. Spaeth and Bailey were charged with continuous sexual assault of a child amongst other charges, while Kirkus was charged with possession with intent to promote pornography.

The Broward County Sheriff’s Office released a video of the incident, which showed Jesse Montez Thorton II, 27, attacking Marc Cohen, 63, at the AMC theater in Pompano Beach, reports FOX NEWS. According to Cohen, he bought VIP tickets with advanced seating for himself and his wife, which is what he told officials.

Cohen politely asked them to move, but Thorton allegedly responded with hostility. The video footage shows Thorton getting in Cohen’s face, causing Cohen to lose his balance on the theater steps. Moments later, the situation escalated into a physical confrontation, with Thorton repeatedly punching Cohen in the face after Cohen fell.

    “callous,”

  • Mother Discovered Three Minor Children Unconscious After Babysitter Reportedly Taught Them How To Snort Pills

    Mother Discovered Three Minor Children Unconscious After Babysitter Reportedly Taught Them How To Snort Pills

    Sadly, three children were discovered unresponsive at a babysitter’s home after she reportedly taught them how to snort drugs, officials in Indiana said. On June 28, the children’s mother arrived to retrieve them from the woman’s home and discovered the babysitter sitting on her front porch while appearing to be

    “impaired,”

    according to The Kansas Star.

    When the unidentified mother went into the woman’s home, she called for her children; however, there was no response. She instantly ran to her children and discovered her three children unresponsive. Reports added that their ages were 8, 9, and 15. 

    Officers later arrived at the scene after the mother contacted officials. First responders began to help the children and luckily, the two younger children were revived at the home; despite them

    “stumbling and falling down.”

    The 15-year-old was taken to the hospital and later gained consciousness. Reports added that the teen was located near a powdery substance and shattered pill capsules. 

    The minors informed officials that the unnamed babysitter gave them pills and showed them how to snort the pills, investigators say. Officials said,

    “The children also told detectives that they each ingested about 3-4 pills each of the three different types of pills.” 

    Police searched the babysitter’s home after obtaining a search warrant where they discovered

    “prescription bottles for Klonopin, Adderall, and Lyrica, along with loose pills,”

    reports the news outlet. The babysitter stumbled on her words as she informed officials that she didn’t know what happened; however, she confessed that the minors might have gotten ahold of her drugs.

    The babysitter was charged with neglect of a dependent resulting in serious bodily injury among other charges, officials say, reports the Kansas Star.
