UPDATE: Phoenix police are investigating after a statue Charlie Kirk was vandalized with red paint outside Turning Point USA’s headquarters, Heidi Hatch reports.

Police responded Sunday morning after the newly unveiled statue and a nearby memorial were found defaced. No suspect has been publicly identified.

“This isn’t the country we want to live in. Arizona is not Gotham,” Turning Point Action COO Tyler Bowyer wrote on social media.

Turning Point USA worked to restore the statue Sunday and replace the damaged signs. The statue was unveiled Thursday, one year after Kirk was shot and killed at Utah Valley University.

NEW: A Crosby man punched a Brainerd police officer in the face, tried to grab the officer’s gun and later knocked another officer unconscious with a kick to the head during a midday confrontation at Bane Park, Minnesota.

Felo Pierre Simenstad, 19, got off the bike and punched the officer in the face, knocking him to the ground, then continued throwing punches. The complaint states Simenstad grabbed the officer’s holstered handgun with both hands and tried to open the retention hood.

Both eventually got to their feet, and the officer deployed his taser into Simenstad’s back, but Simenstad managed to run into the woods as the officer was unable to chase him due to an ankle injury.

He then violently kicked another officer in the face, causing the officer to lose consciousness and collapse.

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

HORRIFIC: Newly released bodycam shows Georgia police Sgt. Chris Fisher arresting the man authorities say would shoot and kill him just five days later.

Jimmy Lee Steverson, 23, was restrained and tased after fighting with officers during the Aug. 27 arrest. Police found approximately 34.6 grams of marijuana and three rifles inside his truck. He was charged and released on a $10,000 bond.

Five days later, authorities say Steverson pulled alongside Fisher’s patrol car and opened fire, killing the 36-year-old officer.

Steverson later died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound after deputies stopped his vehicle in South Carolina.

BREAKING! CAPTURED: Another FBI Most Wanted Fraudster.

This is the 6th Most Wanted Fraudster captured since the creation of the new list three months ago – and yet another high value target captured overseas. Subjects captured so far have been responsible for a combined over $2 billion in fraud and were on the run for over 4,000 days collectively prior to arrest.

EMYLEE THAI – a subject on the run since 2022 – has been arrested after allegedly defrauding Medicare for over $100 million. She was arrested in Vietnam and was believed to be hiding there since at least 2023. FBI is actively working with our partners to secure her return to the United States. 

Thai is charged with offenses including Conspiracy to Commit Health Care Fraud and Conspiracy to Defraud the United States, among others.

Thank you to our law enforcement partners and more who continue to work with us on this historic initiative under the leadership of POTUS and VP.

NEW: A Massachusetts family says the state took custody of their teenage daughter after they refused to affirm her as a boy, citing their Catholic faith.

The parents allege a school counselor socially transitioned their daughter without their knowledge, then reported them to the Department of Children and Families.

Now the state has guardianship, and a restraining order prevents the teen's parents and older brother from contacting her.

A judge has temporarily blocked the state from administering high-dose testosterone as the family fights the case. The next court hearing is set for Oct. 29.

WATCH: Dramatic footage shows a Florida DUI suspect carrying his two young children into a gator-infested swamp while trying to escape the police.

Lakeland Police Officers launched a drone to track the man after he crashed his vehicle and fled the scene, leaving behind two empty child car seats.

Police ultimately rescued both children, ages 2 years and 10 months, and say the father admitted he was intoxicated and driving with a suspended license. He now faces 11 charges, including two counts of negligent child abuse with great bodily harm.

LATEST: Flash flooding brought on by heavy rains prompted road closures, water rescues and commuter rail problems across the tristate area Sunday.

The National Weather Service said the hardest-hit areas appeared to be northern New Jersey, parts of New York’s Westchester County and a swath of coastal Connecticut along Interstate 95. The service issued flash flood warnings across the region for much of the morning Sunday as rain fell at a rate of 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 centimeters) an hour in places.

Metro-North and Amtrak said their rail lines to New Haven, which serve Norwalk, Bridgeport and other major Connecticut communities, were experiencing delays and cancellations due to flooding impacts.

Tweed New Haven Airport also closed its departures terminal due to local flash flooding. Airport officials in a Facebook post said travelers with flights departing Sunday should not come until further notice.

Vice President JD Vance had a simple idea: Why don’t we have a Most Wanted Fraudsters list?

So we built one.

In just 3 months: 5 fraudsters captured, 4,000+ days on the run, nearly $2 BILLION in alleged fraud—across 3 continents.

The American people remain one of the FBI’s greatest partners.

You give us the information. We find them. We bring them to justice.

A Sacramento County deputy raced into a dark garage and opened fire as a knife-wielding suspect allegedly stabbed a mother and daughter during what investigators said was a random attack.

We formally request an investigation into THIS GUY. On the 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF 9/11, hundreds of protesters and counterprotesters converged outside New York City Hall while families just blocks away were remembering nearly 3,000 people murdered in the worst terrorist attack on American soil.

One man was also captured repeatedly shouting “Allahu Akbar” (yes, really) during the confrontation. Can you even imagine a protest like this happening even ten years ago?

The demonstration centered on opposition to Mayor Zohran Mamdani attending the Ground Zero ceremony, with activist Jake Lang leading one group and counterprotesters gathering against it. Video from the confrontation showed shouting, physical clashes and at least one arrest as police worked to keep the groups separated.

One man was also captured repeatedly shouting “Allahu Akbar” during the confrontation, adding another jarring image to an already chaotic scene on an extraordinarily sensitive anniversary.
