- The Austin Police Department has released tragic bodycam footage showing the moment officers fatally shot 17-year-old Anthoneil Williams II in a parking lot. According to authorities, police responded to a 911 call reporting a young person brandishing a gun in the area. Investigators later determined that the call actually came from Williams' own phone.

While authorities have stated that early signs point to a possible "suicide by police," they emphasize that this remains an active and ongoing investigation.

- A special needs shelter kitten in Ohio is capturing hearts across the internet after dedicated workers crafted him a tiny, makeshift wheelchair using rulers, zip-ties, and a pair of Hot Wheels toy ambulances. When little Gelato first arrived at the Cincinnati Animal Care shelter, he was unable to stand or walk on his own. Because he was far too small for the shelter's standard mobility devices, vet tech Mallory Smith got creative and built him a custom, dinky DIY ride. Unsurprisingly, the adorable video of Gelato rolling around went completely viral, with thousands of likes and supportive comments pouring in from all over the world. Thanks to his newfound internet fame, Gelato has since received a major mobility upgrade, swapping out his toy cars for a better-fitting, custom 3D-printed wheelchair.

The campus policy specifically bans students from wearing bonnets, durags, and bedroom shoes to class or the cafeteria, while also requiring professional business attire for certain meetings and events. While the announcement has drawn mixed reviews and viral backlash online, some students and alumni are defending the rules. A 2022 Tuskegee graduate explains that dressing professionally was always the campus norm before the COVID-19 pandemic, while an incoming freshman says she understands the push to prepare students for their future professional careers.

- An incredible story of survival out of Montana after a hiker accidentally impaled himself with his own trekking pole on a 12,000-foot mountain—and then hiked six hours down to safety. David Cifaldi and two friends were about 10 miles into an attempt to summit Granite Peak when he slipped on some rocks, resulting in the freak accident. Fortunately, Cifaldi is a professional wound care nurse. Using his medical training to assess his own injury, he determined he wasn't suffering from severe blood loss or lung damage and decided to make the grueling six-hour trek back down the mountain under his own power. After coordinating with local search and rescue, Cifaldi finally made it to the trailhead and was transported to a nearby hospital where doctors safely removed the pole.

- Using your credit card to pay for purchases is quick and easy, but that simple swipe is coming with a lot of hidden fees—and it is costing your family more money every year. According to consumer advocates, major credit card companies charge merchants processing fees that range from 1.5% to as much as 4% for every transaction. Last year alone, U.S. businesses paid nearly $200 billion in credit and debit card fees, and many merchants are forced to pass those costs directly onto the consumer. In fact, the Merchants Payments Coalition estimates that these hidden "swipe fees" cost the average U.S. household roughly $1,200 more last year.

- RAW: Fauci Invokes The Fifth, Rand Paul Ejects His Lawyer

- Description
- Uncut video captures the explosive moment Senator Rand Paul ordered Dr. Anthony Fauci's lawyer to be removed from a highly contentious Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee hearing on Wednesday. Appearing under subpoena, the 85-year-old former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases repeatedly invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination while facing intense questioning from Chairman Paul. The Republican senator has long argued that Dr. Fauci should shoulder the blame for the COVID-19 pandemic and the nation's response, leading to multiple heated clashes between the two over the years. The dramatic ejection of Fauci's legal counsel came just after the committee unexpectedly released more than a thousand pages of Fauci's personal diaries from the pandemic years—documents the Trump administration reportedly recovered from government servers.

- Terrifying underwater footage captures the heart-pounding moment a spearfisherman was aggressively attacked by a shark in the waters off the coast of Fiji. New Zealand diver Henry Gibbs recorded the harrowing encounter as a grey reef shark circled below before suddenly surging toward the surface. In the dramatic video, the shark can be seen lunging and latching onto Gibbs' calf, initiating what the diver described as a "death roll." After surviving the immediate attack and receiving emergency medical care in Fiji, Gibbs was flown back to New Zealand. He has since undergone four surgeries and a skin graft for his severe leg wounds. Despite the terrifying ordeal, the diver says he feels incredibly lucky to still have full use of his foot and is expected to make a full recovery.
