A 23-year-old man has been charged with attempting to murder an 11-year-old girl who survived being shot in the head while riding around town with her family, police announced Thursday. Ryan Hardy, of Antioch, was charged with five counts of attempted murder and assault with a firearm for allegedly shooting the girl in the early afternoon of Jan. 5, as she rode in a car on the 3900 block of Delta Fair Boulevard, police said.

They come as a group every time. We don't know if they will attack us or bring a weapon, so I'm scared,

There have been no gun killings in the Republic of Ireland this year for the first time in nearly 60 years. While gangland and terrorist murders have featured regularly in annual statistics due to the Troubles of the 1970s and 1980s, as well as drug-related killings in the 2000s, it is understood the last year when no person was shot dead in the Republic was 1968.

My target was just to take the gun from him, and to stop him from killing a human being's life and not killing innocent people, he said. I know I saved lots, but I feel sorry for the lost. Ahmed's stunning heroism gained widespread attention after dash cam footage showed him jumping from behind a parked car onto one of the gunmen's backs, eventually wrenching the gun from the assailant's hands.

The last 30 years have seen heinous mass shootings of innocents become "ho-hum" events of everyday life - from Columbine (1999) to Sandy Hook (2012) schools; to just-engaged 20-year-old-Israelis walking (2025) in Washington, D.C.; to Laney college football coach John Beam (November 2025). Mental health issues do occur; 100 years ago, such shootings didn't. Grievances exist, but why think cold-blooded murder solves anything?

At about 5pm, the Chanukah by the Sea event begins at Archer Park, a small, grassy area at the back of Bondi beach. The park is just north of Bondi Surf Bathers Life Saving club, and has several small shelters for picnics and a children's playground. Chanukah by the Sea is a regular event for Bondi's large Jewish community, to mark the beginning of the religious festival.

The firefighters, the policemen, the civil leaders, neighbors who come together, and let us celebrate that community,

"This tragedy thirteen years ago is one of the worst to ever occur in Connecticut, and our hearts will forever be with the twenty innocent children who were taken all too soon and the six devoted educators who lost their lives protecting the students they heroically guarded," Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont said. "Let this anniversary serve as a reminder of the courage and strength of our school teachers and faculty, the ongoing need to dedicate ourselves to being sources of love and humanity, and our collective responsibility to work toward a more peaceful, kind, and hopeful world."

Announced just a few days prior to its release, 21 Savage's new album, What Happened to the Streets, documents the subtle maturation of an unblinking Atlanta rapper whose deadpanned threats are a prickly veneer around a grief-stricken survivor mentality. Tracks like the somber "Big Stepper" delve into the pain under the pomp, detailing struggles animating the put-downs we expect to encounter in this work.

I'm not fucking apologising for that. I mean, for fuck's sake, I commented on one thing. I said something that was based on actual reality and actual footage and actual quotes. What I said was pretty damn factual, and I'm free to have an opinion, of course.

Gang leader from Brooklyn gets 15 years in prison for gun violence, drug trafficking A gang leader from Brooklyn has been sentenced to prison for plaguing Upper Manhattan with gun violence and drug trafficking, according to federal prosecutors.
