-Lurid Crime Tales-
Teen arrested, 2nd suspect sought in Morgan State University shooting
[10 News] As speculated, White Suprema.....Nevermind
Baltimore police arrested a 17-year-old and are searching for 18-year-old Jovan Williams in connection to a shooting at Morgan State University.

Baltimore police have arrested a 17-year-old in connection with a shooting at Morgan State University last week that left five people wounded.

The unidentified teen was taken into custody in Washington, D.C., Thursday without incident and has been charged with multiple counts of attempted murder, police announced Friday morning.

Now authorities are searching for a second suspect, 18-year-old Jovan Williams, who police say is considered armed and dangerous. He's been issued an arrest warrant for attempted murder.

"We will not rest until Williams is in custody," Commissioner Richard Worley said in the statement. "While this arrest cannot undo the damage and trauma caused that day, it is my hope that it can bring some peace and justice to the victims, the Morgan community and our city."

Authorities were able to identify Williams and the other juvenile using surveillance video from the shooting, which occurred on Oct. 3.

Morgan State students had been making their way from a campus auditorium to the student center for a coronation ball when shots rang out. Officials locked down the campus as SWAT searched for the suspects in buildings room-by-room.

Four men and one woman ranging from 18 to 22 years old were hospitalized with injuries, four of them being students. Neither of the gunmen were students at Morgan State.

Police believe a dispute amongst a small group prompted the shooting and that those injured were "unintended targets."

Still, the shooting has pushed the school to upgrade security. Officials announced they're building a wall around 90% of the campus and installing metal detectors and a guard booth outside the dorm building near where the gunfire erupted.

-Short Attention Span Theater-
Huge lizard scares people as it enters a Thai store
[GEO.TV] A bizarre and frightening event took place in a Thai convenience store in which a giant lizard sneaked through the shop premises, scaring people as they looked at the reptile running amok in Nakhon Pathomm, Thailand, reported The New York Post.

Footage of the incident went viral on social media in which the lizard can be seen over a fridge wandering all over the place.

An onlooker was quoted as saying that "she was mesmerised by the lizard," as the critter’s scaly shopping spree, occurred on October 11 at a 7-Eleven in Thailand.

The egg-laying species inconspicuously found its way into the Thai store and was later spotted on the premises on a light fixture above the displays.

The video showed the giant lizard trying to find its way through near the lights on the ceiling before falling onto a fridge, leaving the onlookers shocked.

"It just came from nowhere and started walking across the food fridge," the onlooker stated.

It was fortunate that it was a friendly lizard and no one was hurt as a result according to a college student, who said the massive reptile was eventually removed from the Thai store.

Animal Contraceptive and Antibiotics Detected in Top 10 Popular Fast Foods: Report
[ET] Two types of animal antibiotics and an animal contraceptive have been detected in food samples from America’s top 10 most popular fast-food chains, according to a laboratory report.

In September, Moms Across America (MAA) submitted food samples from 10 popular American food chains to the Health Research Institute, an Iowa-based nonprofit laboratory that tests food for nutritional value, biofunctionality, and contaminants and toxins, requesting that the laboratory test the samples for over 100 common veterinary drugs and hormones. MAA is a nonprofit activism group formed by mothers intending to bring awareness to food that contains genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and pesticides.

Molecular and chief scientist at the Health Research Institute, John Fagan, confirmed that his lab tested the food samples.
8 in 10 Popular Fast Food Chains Tested Positive
Most of the food was sampled from America's top 10 most popular food chains. Volunteers for MAA went to their local McDonald’s, Starbucks, Subway, Chick-fil-A, Burger King, Taco Bell, Chipotle, Dunkin’, Wendy’s, or Domino's stores and ordered the same meal several times.

#1  Fattening us up for the Big Pharma market.

The JAB was a stop-cap measure. Societal obesity really is the key to finally eliminating non-contributing octogenarians.

Yes, why not. 'Supersize' those fries.
