    Passengers aboard a JetBlue flight landing at Boston’s Logan International Airport faced a chaotic landing on Thursday when the aircraft veered off the runway and onto the grass, according to an airport spokesperson per AP News. No injuries were reported among those on board, but the runway remained closed, on Thursday afternoon.

    The Airbus A220 was arriving from Chicago.

    “JetBlue flight 312 from Chicago to Boston veered off the runway and onto the grass after landing,”

    JetBlue said in an email.

  • Teenagers Kicked Out Of Boston Sephora Store Following Accusations Of Using Makeup For Blackface

    Teenagers Kicked Out Of Boston Sephora Store Following Accusations Of Using Makeup For Blackface

    Several teenage girls were recently recorded on camera allegedly using dark makeup to mimic blackface inside a Sephora store in Boston, reports the NY Post. 

    The incident was captured in a viral TikTok video, where three girls were seen trying out makeup testers at the Prudential Center location. Two of the girls covered their faces with cosmetics specifically designed for darker skin tones. The video, which has since been made private, was filmed by Temi Ojora, a track and field athlete from the University of Southern California. 

    Ojora said the scene made her

    “genuinely so disgusted and disturbed.”

    “These group of teenage girls and their mothers come in and go to the makeup section to use the samples for blackface whilst giggling and making animal sounds,”

    Ojora wrote.

    “This is the stuff that ruins jobs, college acceptances, let alone how incredibly offensive this is,”

    a staff member says.

    The chaperone dismissed the employee and later asked Temi Ojora to delete the video. The identities of the chaperone and the girls remain unknown. Sephora criticized the group for their offensive behavior

    “We are extremely disappointed by the behavior of these shoppers at our Prudential Center location, and as such, they were asked to leave our premises,”

    the company said in a statement.

    “Under no circumstance is this type of behavior tolerated at Sephora.”

  • Lawsuit Filed Against Boston Public School After 9-Year-Old Girl Endures Repeated Rape and Assault On School Bus By Fellow Student

    Lawsuit Filed Against Boston Public School After 9-Year-Old Girl Endures Repeated Rape and Assault On School Bus By Fellow Student

    The family of a 9-year-old girl who was allegedly assaulted and raped multiple times by another student on a Boston school bus has filed a lawsuit against Boston Public Schools, reports Boston 25 News.

    The lawsuit, which was filed by Morgan & Morgan in Suffolk Superior Court, also includes the City of Boston, Match Charter School, and a Transdev bus driver and monitor as defendants. According to the lawsuit, the girl, who is a student at Match Charter Public School in Hyde Park, endured repeated sexual assault and rape by an 11-year-old student over seven months during the 2022-2023 school year.

    “The sexual assaults occurred on diverse dates over seven months and were committed by another 11-year-old student,”

    the lawsuit stated.

    “The sexual assaults took place just a few feet from the bus monitor and the bus driver on the ride home after school from the Match Charter Public School.”

    The lawyers at Morgan & Morgan say that the young girl had to leave school early out of fear of facing further physical or social consequences.

    “Our client will experience a childhood haunted by trauma and flashbacks, and we will do everything in our power to hold the defendants accountable and prevent anything like this from happening to another child in our city.”

    The lawsuit also alleges that the Transdev bus driver and monitor

    “either knew, or reasonably should have known, of the repeated and ongoing sexual abuse,”

    and that they had a

    “duty to identify, intervene, and take steps to end and report the abuse as well as to take reasonable steps to prevent it from reoccurring.”

    The lawsuit further alleges that Transdev and/or its co-defendants

    “negligently, recklessly, and/or intentionally lost or destroyed video footage”

    from the bus.

  • Dog Devours Boston Couple’s Passport Days Before Their Dream Italian Wedding

    Dog Devours Boston Couple’s Passport Days Before Their Dream Italian Wedding

    Talk about a ‘doggone’ disaster. A Boston couple’s Italian wedding is in jeopardy after their dog decided to take a bite out of the groom’s passport. 

    Donato Frattaroli and his fiance had recently visited city hall to complete their marriage paperwork, eagerly preparing for their August 31st ceremony. However, upon returning home, they discovered that their mischievous year-and-a-half-old golden retriever, Chickie, had chewed through several pages of Frattaroli’s passport, he told the NY Post. 

    With their flight to Italy scheduled for this Friday, the couple now finds themselves in a race against time to obtain a replacement passport. They have reached out to local authorities, seeking assistance to resolve this situation. However, if Frattaroli is unable to secure a new passport before the flight, he faces the heart-wrenching decision of staying behind while his fiance and wedding guests proceed to Italy without him.

    “I’m just a little stressed,”

    Frattaroli told the Post.

    “Luckily, Congressman (Stephen) Lynch’s office and Sen. (Ed) Markey’s office have been super responsive. They’ve been in touch, at least with me and the State Department, to try to expedite things and get a new passport. Keep my fingers crossed and, hopefully, everything will work itself out.”

    If Frattaroli cannot obtain a passport in time for his wedding, he says he made alternate plans to meet up with the wedding party upon their return to the United States. The couple remains hopeful that a solution will be found, as their dream of an Italian wedding hangs in the balance.

  • Boston Marathon Runner Caught Pooping In Strangers Yard By Doorbell Camera

    Boston Marathon Runner Caught Pooping In Strangers Yard By Doorbell Camera

    Footage from a doorbell camera has gone viral after a homeowner caught a Boston Marathon runner defecating on their lawn, The New York Post reports.

    On Monday, a Reddit user posted the video, titling it “One of the marathon runners just took a s*** in my yard (video inside).” In a thread below the video, the owner of the house explains that there were plenty of portable toilets located throughout the course for runners to use, and that there was “absolutely zero reason for someone to trespass to take a s*** on a lawn.”

    The footage shows a marathon participant dropping their shorts in order to relieve themselves. Around eight seconds into the video, a spectator walks down the home’s front pathway, and stops after locking eyes with the runner. After finishing, the lawn-pooper pulls their shorts back up and runs in between two trees before re-entering the marathon course.

    In the comments of the now deleted footage, many expressed their opinions, some enraged by the competitor, and some coming to their defense:

    “People are weird as h*** man,”
    one person wrote. “I would be livid if someone took a s*** on my property, running a marathon or not.”

    “I’m sure the runner was really embarrassed to have to do that,” another commenter stated. “I wouldn’t call her out on it any further.”
