On August 6, 2026 Ptl. Thomas Elwood responded to a first aid call for a male with chest pains. Upon his arrival he made contact with the male and obtained basic information while awaiting the arrival of EMS.

While speaking with the male Ptl. Elwood observed the male was in obvious discomfort and tried to place him in a comfortable position. The male then suddenly went unconscious and stopped breathing.

Ptl. Elwood quickly recognized the need for immediate intervention. He placed the male on the ground, prepared his AED and began high quality CPR. While continuing to administer CPR he directed family members on scene to assist. He was the lone first responder on scene.

The male left the scene in an ambulance conscious and able to talk.

PBA Local 137 commends Ptl. Elwood for his actions in saving a life, job well done.

BOMBSHELL: Before Karmelo Anthony fatally stabbed 17-year-old Austin Metcalf, prosecutors say Anthony sent disturbing texts fantasizing about STABBING SOMEONE and licking blood from the blade.

In another message that morning, he allegedly said he was “low key on the verge.”

NONE of that went before the jury.

Less than two hours before the fatal stabbing, Anthony’s ex-girlfriend reportedly told a school administrator she was afraid of him and accused him of stalking her.

Are you KIDDING?

Prosecutors and Anthony’s original defense team had agreed to keep character evidence about BOTH teenagers out of the trial.

The jury still rejected Anthony’s self-defense claim, found him GUILTY of murder and sentenced him to just 35 years.

Now Anthony wants a NEW TRIAL.

And he has already scored a major legal victory: Judge John Roach Jr., who presided over his murder trial, has been REMOVED from further proceedings in the case after Anthony’s attorneys challenged his impartiality.

The defense pointed in part to Roach’s post-trial interview, where he said the jury “got it right.”

A new judge, Michael Chitty, is now considering whether Anthony should get another trial, and the hearing continues Friday.

Was 35 years long enough in the first place? And if Anthony DOES get another trial, will key evidence like these messages be kept from the jury again?

A pursuit involving a suspected burglar is underway in the San Fernando Valley. The suspect was T-boned by another motorist at a Los Angeles intersection.

VP JD Vance in Middletown: "Papaw was a welder in this place for 40 years — and today, his grandson stands here as the Vice President of these United States. It's an amazing thing." 🇺🇸

"The blood of these men and women — these so-called 'deaths of despair,' I'm sure you've heard that phrase, but it's almost too abstract for me — because the blood of those people, in my view, it pools at the feet of those who would sell out their country for a cheap bottom line."

VP: "We're here to announce that Cleveland-Cliffs is making — today, right here in Middletown, Ohio — a $1 BILLION investment in transformational manufacturing right here in our home."

"In just 18 months, we have seen an explosion of rebuilding in the American heartland. We have seen trillions — with a T, trillions — of new dollars of investment pour into the USA to build new smelters, build new manufacturing facilities, build new mills, build new everything."

VP: "Every step of the way, these Democrats have voted for foreign workers and fraudsters over American citizens and hardworking taxpayers... Who do these Democrats put first? Everyone else. You know who the Trump Administration puts first? Americans."

VP: "I'd love to go back in time and tell my Papaw that there's a man who claims to stand for working people who says not only should we have Sharia Law, but if you criticize it, you're a white supremacist." 🤣

VP: "Whether it's child predators, Somali fraudsters, foreign gang members, or even visa fraudsters who are working to undercut American wages and steal from American taxpayers, the Democrats know who they stand for. It's anyone but you."

🇺🇸“I picked that beautiful flag up off that ground.”

Marine veteran and double amputee Tony Mullis stopped on a Georgia highway after spotting a U.S. flag on the ground beside the busy interstate.

Mullis, who lost both legs after an explosion during his second tour in Afghanistan, got out of his SUV to retrieve the flag.

He said seeing the flag on the ground “broke my heart” because it reminded him of those who sacrificed for the country.
