    According to CBS News, a crowd in Mexico lynched three men who allegedly kidnapped and robbed a girl.

    “Three men died after being detained and lynched by residents for the alleged robbery and kidnapping of a minor,”

    said a local government statement.

    15-Year-Old Volleyball Player Dies After Ambulance Never Showed Up When She Collapsed At Practice

    Sadly, 15-year-old Amanda Sylvester of Georgia suffered from cardiac arrest after an ambulance never showed up, officials say, according to the New York Post. The teen collapsed while at volleyball practice and although medical professionals arrived to examine Sylvester after she fell, the ambulance that was originally called failed to arrive.

    A spokesman for Fulton County, Bill Crane, told 11Alive,

    “Within about eight minutes, College Park Fire Rescue EMTS were on site..The young lady, by then, was conscious, evaluated, and assessed. Her vitals were all normal; she was making eye contact, her pupils weren’t dilated, and she was conversant.”

    The teen’s mother later took her to Hughes Spalding Children’s Hospital when the ambulance failed to show up for 40 mins. At the hospital, she sadly experienced cardiac failure and was revived just once before she was declared dead.

    Grady Memorial Hospital responded, noting that the call wasn’t categorized as a high priority.

    “A College Park Fire unit responded to the scene and was equipped to provide medical care and transport if necessary. Following an update on the patient’s condition, the call was reclassified, and a Grady EMS unit was promptly dispatched,”

    said the ambulance service.

    The statement continued,

    “However, as our unit was en route, College Park Fire determined that additional EMS support was no longer needed due to the patient being transported to the hospital via personal vehicle.”

  • 2 Kindergarteners In ‘Critical But Stable Condition’ Following Christian Grammar School Shooting

    2 Kindergarteners In ‘Critical But Stable Condition’ Following Christian Grammar School Shooting

    Two boys, ages 5 and 6, are in serious but stable condition after being shot at their Christian school in Northern California. The suspected shooter died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he opened fire on the pupils, reports ABC News.

    Butte County authorities went to the Feather River Adventist School near Oroville after hearing about an active shooter. A highway patrol officer discovered two injured students and the shooter’s body nearby. The shooter had talked to a school administrator earlier that same day about enrolling a student. Reports say that the school teaches students from Kindergarten to 8th grade.

    Officials mentioned it’s unclear if the meeting was real or a stunt for the shooter to enter the school. It seemed friendly, and the administrator had no concerns. Shots were blasted shortly after the meeting, and officials are investigating a possible motive, which they believe could’ve been connected to the fact that the school is linked to the Seventh-Day Adventist Church.

    Kory Honea, the Butte County Sheriff said,

    “Out of an abundance of caution, we sent an alert out to law enforcement agencies throughout the state of California, advising them of this shooting and advising them that the subject may have targeted this school because of its affiliation with that particular religious organization.”

    He continued,

    “Our request of those law enforcement agencies was to be vigilant and make sure that those schools are safe and the students are still safe.”

  • Florida Woman Gives Ludicrous Excuse For Why She Snatched A Toddler From His Yard, Then Tells Police I Gave It Back!’ To Avoid Arrest

    Florida Woman Gives Ludicrous Excuse For Why She Snatched A Toddler From His Yard, Then Tells Police I Gave It Back!’ To Avoid Arrest

    A woman from Florida reportedly took a three-year-old boy from his yard last week. When authorities confronted her, she claimed she shouldn’t be arrested because she “returned” the child, according to the New York Post.

    39-year-old Pamela Monsalve informed officials,

    “I gave it back! I gave it back!”

    prior to police arresting her.

    On Nov. 25, neighbors saw Monsalve take the toddler from his fenced yard in Hallandale Beach. They contacted the boy’s mother, chased her, and made her return the child before calling officials.

    Bodycam footage caught her explanation, saying,

    “He was outside, he was naked, he was, like, with his shirt, and his…everything was naked. And I asked for the people around to call police, and nobody would call police, and I told the little boy ‘Where’s your mom?’ and he said ‘no.’”

    An officer inquired about the location of a

    “playground”

    that she had previously mentioned during their conversation.

    She explained incoherently,

    “Outside the, the…outside the, um…hotel.”

    “I got the little boy, and everyone was like, don’t get the little boy, and I’m like, I gave it back to the mom… I gave it back!,”

    she continued.

    Prosecutors dismissed her

    “no harm, no foul”

    defense. Monsalve is held without bond, charged with unlawfully confining a child under 13. Police commended the rescuers for running to the rescue.

  • 4-Year-Old Hacked Mom’s Amazon Account and Ordered 51 Boxes Of SpongeBob SquarePants Popsicles

    4-Year-Old Hacked Mom’s Amazon Account and Ordered 51 Boxes Of SpongeBob SquarePants Popsicles

    Four-year-old Noah Ruiz adores Popsicles and SpongeBob. When he found a treat that combined both, he decided to order them—specifically, 918! He used his mom Jennifer Bryant’s Amazon Prime account without her knowledge while she was busy in another room during his remote learning, reports CNN.

    “He kept saying the number ’51.’ ”

    said his mother, Jennifer.

    “All day he was walking around saying ‘51, 51.’”

    However, the mother didn’t look deep into it noting that he repeats things from time to time. She said,

    “I really wasn’t surprised because he was diagnosed with ASD (autism spectrum disorder).”

    Three heavy boxes, each 70 pounds, arrived at her sister’s house and needed immediate freezing to keep their contents fresh.

    She then received a phone call.

    “She was fussing and cussing, and she said to me, ‘You know, you really need to stop ordering all this stuff.’” “I said ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about.’”

    Jennifer realized she owned 51 cases of SpongeBob Popsicles, totaling nearly $2,619. Suddenly, Noah’s constant repetition of

    “51, 51…”

    became clear and understandable to her.

    Amazon refused to return the ice pops since they were from a third-party seller. However, they promised to donate the total amount of Popsicles to a charity that she wanted. Jennifer’s credit card is still being investigated and hasn’t issued a refund. A friend created a GoFundMe to help her pay for the Popsicles, and luckily, they were able to reach their goal and some additional revenue.
