Prayers for the Johnson County NC Sheriff's Office deputy who was shot in the line of duty this afternoon. 🙏🏽

Tennessee: JCSO deputy released from hospital after being shot following 421 chase.

Johnson County Sheriff Clifton Worley said a deputy in his office was in the area on Highway 421 when authorities from Watauga County, North Carolina notified them of an armed robbery at a convenience store in Vilas.

According to Worley, authorities up ahead on the highway were able to block the roadway. The suspect then reportedly got out of the vehicle, allowed it to continue forward and started firing at officers near a rock quarry.

“At which time our officers returned fire,” Worley said. “We had one officer struck, and the suspect was struck. One was airlifted to the hospital. The other was transported by ground. As far as I know, our officer, he’s OK, and he’ll be fine.”

Watch: Mad Man Goes Loco on Figueroa.

04/19/25 Saturday Night at approximately 8:30 PM LAFD recieved a call for service near Figueroa St & Century Blvd in South Los Angeles. It came out as an expanded traffic collision. A fully involved mini van was engulfed in flames in the middle of traffic on Century Blvd. An irate man was standing near the burning vehicle swinging around a metal bat.

A Good Samaritan had tried to help put out the fire with a fire extinguisher but the man was combative and did not allow him to spray it. The fire grew larger as the man kept people from helping and was beating the van with his large metal stick.

NEW: Palm Springs Police Officer Stabbed During Altercation with a Suspect

Palm Springs, California – April 22, 2025 – At approximately 2:40 PM today, PSPD officers responded to a disturbance in the 1500 block of North Sunrise Way.

The Los Angeles Police Department has issued a warning to elderly residents about a sleight-of-hand trick thieves are using to steal jewelry.

On Tuesday, LAPD shared security camera footage of several incidents involving suspects believed to be behind thefts in recent weeks, including the moment two thieves in a black SUV pulled the trick on a 75-year-old grandfather in Chatsworth. They were able to steal the man's gold cross necklace after asking him for directions.

Detectives said there's typically an uptick in these types of crimes in the summer.
