NEW: A Madison Wisconsin police officer shot and killed a man who had injured him with a knife while resisting arrest, the city's police chief said Wednesday.

Cellphone video of the shooting circulated on social media shortly after the incident. Three gunshots can be heard on the cellphone video.

Madison Police Chief John Patterson stressed at a news conference that the footage circulating was just one perspective of what happened.

The shooting happened on a city street in a popular neighborhood lined with restaurants, bars, shops and residential homes less than two miles from the state Capitol. Footage of the incident shows numerous cars stopped in the intersection with people watching as it unfolded.

A crowd formed near where the shooting occurred on Wednesday with people chanting, "Arrest the cops!"

Police were responding to calls that someone was attempting to enter parked vehicles in the neighborhood, Patterson said. The suspect fled on a bike through nearby backyards in an attempt to get away before officers contacted him in the street, Patterson said.

The suspect either fell off of his bike or was taken off of his bike by officers and during the struggle pulled out a knife and injured an officer, Patterson said.
An officer deployed a taser but it was unsuccessful, the chief said. The same officer who was injured by the knife fired his weapon and the man who was shot died later at the hospital, the chief said. He described the officer who fired his weapon as a veteran officer, but did not reveal any other details.

Another officer was injured, but it's not clear how, Patterson said. The other two officers were uninjured.

The Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigation will investigate the shooting because it involves police officers.

Please join us in sending prayers and, or positive thoughts for the officers recovery🙏🏻

NEW: A Virginia State Police (VSP) trooper was sent to the hospital after a group of teens in a reported stolen car led authorities on a high-speed chase through Fairfax and Prince William counties and ended in a crash overnight.

It happened around 1:21 a.m. July 22 when VSP officials were told that a stolen vehicle was seen traveling south on Interstate 395 in Fairfax County.

Troopers found the vehicle on southbound I-95, south of the Springfield Interchange, and tried to stop it.

Police said the driver, identified as a Maryland teen, refused to pull over, prompting a chase that reached speeds over 130 mph.

The vehicle got off I-95 at Exit 150 and hit another vehicle before continuing onto Minnieville Road, according to police.

A trooper tried to stop the car, but the teenage driver kept going and got back on I-95, this time heading north.

Police said troopers attempted to box the car in, but the driver, allegedly rammed a state police cruiser and pushed it into a concrete barrier.

The stolen car traveled about another 100 yards before coming to a stop.

The trooper was taken to a nearby hospital, treated, and released, according to VSP. Please join us in sending prayers and, or positive thoughts for his recovery🙏🏻

BREAKING: "An unprecedented cyber incident."

OpenAI says one of its AI models hacked into another AI company during internal testing.

The victim, Hugging Face, says it had already detected the intrusion last week and suspected an autonomous AI agent was behind it.

OpenAI said the intrusion was caused by a combination of its AI models, which used stolen credentials and a previously unknown vulnerability to access Hugging Face servers.

“AI is accelerating the discovery and exploitation of vulnerabilities,” OpenAI said in its statement. “The primary lesson from this incident is that model security and safety must keep pace with rapidly advancing capabilities.”

The incident adds to growing concerns over AI security, just weeks after President Trump signed an executive order requiring federal vetting of the most advanced AI models before public release.
