He was last seen alive about a mile away at a four-day 22nd birthday party with friends over the Labor Day weekend that was heavily documented on social media. After almost eight months of silence, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, which is leading the investigation, finally gave its first update since last September, just as the medical examiner revealed his cause of death - but left more questions than answers.

For days, as university unrest spread and descended into violence then ugly anti-Semitism, with Jewish students being excluded from campus in echoes of the early days of Nazi Germany, and as swastika graffiti started appearing where Jewish students gathered, not a word emanated from the Oval Office. Until finally, with pressure mounting from friendly networks like CNN, Biden was dragged to the podium Thursday - and what he said was pathetic. Speaking for just a few minutes, he issued platitudes about the lawlessness of 'destroying property', notably mentioning 'islamophobia' in the same breath as 'anti-Semitism', before making a swift exit. He didn't identify a single university by name and defended the right to protest.

Kristi Noem is still doubling down on defending her decision to shoot dead her 14-month-old puppy Cricket and is upping the rhetoric about how 'extremely dangerous' the dog was. Speaking with Fox News host Sean Hannity on Wednesday night, the South Dakota Governor claimed that it was most safe to kill the dog because there were 'small kiddos' on the farm that were at risk. Noem, 52, confessed in her upcoming book to killing her family farm dog while her kids were at school. The excerpt was immediately picked up and was viewed and shared widespread online - essentially tanking the Republican's chances of being selected as Donald Trump's vice presidential candidate.

A British tourist who was en route to New York City when his flight was forced into an emergency landing in Maine when he got into a dispute with another passenger before threatening to 'mess up' the plane has been fined $20,000 in a US court.

District Judge Lance Walker said this week that the suspect would not be required to go back to prison after issuing the fine. The US Attorney's Office said that the altercation began with MacDonald arguing with his girlfriend, who was traveling with him.

With flowing blonde hair and her cheeky grin, the young royal is every inch the perfect Princess.

And it would appear Charlotte marked a sweet homage to Queen Elizabeth II , as she posed alongside pale pink flowers named in her honour.

California cops wearing face shields and protective vests have now smashed through barricades at UCLA's Gaza encampment after a smaller group of police was forced to retreat by pro-Palestine protesters. The mob initially resisted law enforcement as they chanted 'peaceful protest.' California Highway Patrol officers were then bussed to the campus to lead the charge, clearing away makeshift barricades made out of dumpsters and wooden boards as they marched on the camp. 'Leave the campus, this is a f*****g school. This is a f*****g school, what are you doing, this is a school, we f*****g learn. I got to learn about public health,' one protester shouted.

Veteran Norman Browning, 71, won a court victory last week paving the way for the establishment of the city of St George in response to the 'failing' schools of Baton Rouge. The split has been mired in accusations of racism, with critics pointing out that St George's 86,000 residents will be predominantly wealthy and white, leaving the poorer black population of East Baton Rouge behind. Browning has vehemently denied he is racist, instead arguing the community merely wants to take back control of its education system. Regardless, his idea for a breakaway district was undoubtedly formed while working as a sports coach at a Baton Rouge high school beset by racial tensions and ongoing violence.

Within days of feeling sick, he had a 'super empty' and vacant look in his eyes and almost completely stopped moving and speaking. 'I honestly thought he was going to die in my arms,' she said. 'I just kept telling him that "mommy's getting help, and you're going to be okay".' Vincent is one of around 130 Americans struck with measles this year , amid warnings that falling vaccination rates and surging immigration is leaving America's children more vulnerable to the disease than ever before.

Emily Swenson was working a shift at the Moorhead Freez when a customer came in and tried to leave her a $100 tip. After Emily insisted that the tip was too generous and that she could not accept it, the customer put the $100 bill in the tip jar and drove away. Days later, on April 24, Emily received a written warning from her boss. Her parents, Seth and Lisa Swenson, uploaded the 'employee warning notice form' on their joint Facebook post. It read: 'Emily needs to understand that some of our customers are elderly and could be dealing with dementia or other illnesses that make it hard for them to understand their actions. 'No one in their right frame of mind tips $100 at a place where every menu item is under $12.' Emily was fired the next day, according to her parents.

Christopher Gregor, 31, is facing murder charges over the 2021 death of his son Corey Micciolo, with a forensic pathologist previously ruling the boy's death was a homicide via blunt force injuries. Prosecutors allege that Gregor battered and bruised his son causing fatal injuries, and his ongoing trial saw sickening footage of Gregor forcing his son to run on a treadmill as he continually falls off. Claims that the sadistic workout contributed to Corey's death were refuted by Gregor's attorney, who insisted the tragedy had 'absolutely nothing to do with that treadmill.'

A Thunderbirds-style military vehicle designed for unmanned, long-distance underwater missions has completed in-water testing. The Manta Ray prototype uncrewed underwater vehicle (UUV) completed the full-scale testing off the coast of Southern California over the last three months, according to manufacturer Northrop Grumman.

Although its future missions have not been revealed, Northrop Grumman describe the vehicle as a 'new class of UUV'. It moves through the water using 'efficient, buoyancy-driven gliding' and could reduce need for as much human involvement in underwater missions.

Saffron Hayes, 38, is a seasoned paddleboarder and adventurist from Juneau, Alaska, who frequently paddles off the Alaska coast with his wife and young children. On a recent paddleboard excursion to the waters near Lena Point, almost 14 miles northwest of Downtown Juneau, Hayes experienced the shock of a lifetime. Hayes managed to capture the wild moment he came just inches away from a massive orca on camera. He said he spotted the orca pod and paddled over to get a closer look - while still keeping his distance. The paddleboarder said he was sitting in about 10 feet of water when one of the whales in the group became curious. The orca made its way over to Hayes and swam underneath his paddleboard - before it all of a sudden popped out of the water just inches away from him.
