Two Oklahoma police officers were arrested on second-degree murder charges Wednesday for the 2019 death of a 28-year-old man who was allegedly tased over 50 times. The officers, from the Wilson Police Department, were responding to a disorderly conduct situation when the incident occurred, The Daily Ardmoreite reported. Carter County Court records show that Jared Lakey died on the morning of July 6, 2019 -- two days after he was allegedly tased more than 50 times by officers Joshua Taylor, 25, and Brandon Dingman, 34. The documents also show Lakey's cause of death to have been “complications of myocardial infarction (clinical) in the setting of cardiomegaly and critical coronary atherosclerosis and law enforcement use of electrical weapon and restraint.” Taylor and Dingman got to the scene around midnight on July 4, 2019. Investigators said Lakey would not cooperate peacefully with commands from the officers, so they began using their tasers, according to Oklahoma's News 4.

This is the moment a 72-year-old camper advanced to within 10ft of a bison in what proved a costly mistake as she was gored and flung 15ft in the air. Footage of the encounter in Yellowstone National Park was taken by another family at the campsite, who watched in horror as the creature attacked the woman who was trying to take a photo. The California woman was left unconscious on the grass and was subsequently airlifted to hospital, but the bison did not damage any major organs. Park rangers warned that visitors should keep 75ft away from the creatures because they are 'wild animals' that feel 'threatened' if they are approached.

A driver believed to have been speeding crashed their car through the roof of a Texas beauty salon early Friday, sending the driver to the hospital and significantly damaging the business. A witness said that she was opening her Northeast Houston business at around 5 a.m. when she heard the car. The witness estimated the vehicle was going around 100 miles per hour. A driver lost control of the car while trying to make a turn. The vehicle hit a curb and went airborne before plowing through the hair salon. Salon owner Jennifer Johnson estimated the crash caused around $300,000 in damage. She told the station she had a “full list of clients” scheduled for Friday. "I'm at a loss for words," she said, adding that she now has to “figure out how I'm going to re-establish my salon." The unidentified driver was initially trapped inside the wreckage before being extracted by firefighters. Reports say the driver was taken to a local hospital and is expected to survive.
