In 2023, a report from the Police Executive Research Forum called for police to put the brakes on car chases unless a violent crime has been committed and the suspect poses an imminent threat. The report noted a spike in fatalities and an increase in pursuits by some departments, including in Houston and New York City.

According to police, the incident occurred just before 6 a.m. at a garage on West 43rd Street near the West Side Highway. Four men entered the garage around 5:45 a.m. and attempted to steal several luxury cars, including a blue McLaren sports car and a black Mercedes‑Benz G‑Wagon.

Out of the company's first 80,000 deliveries the bots finished on campus, about 1,600 involved incidents of vandalism. At a cost of $2,500 per Kiwibot, the damage adds up quick.

The suspect was locked in a bathroom by passengers after setting off the pyrotechnics, police said in a statement, adding that the man was carrying two knives.

We are currently at the scene of a serious road traffic collision on the junction of Terenure Cross, Terenure, Dublin 6W involving a bus and a pedestrian.

I got to the top of the stairs and felt a bit dizzy. I remember thinking I'm going to fall over. I got onto one knee and then, that was it, I don't remember anything else.

A 62-year-old woman driving a blue Subaru SUV careened into a Ginette NY jewelry store. Authorities reported that the driver attempted to step on the brake, but instead, mistakenly hit the accelerator.

"There's a lot of distractions when you drive an ambulance. They do serious work - but how could they not stop?"

I don't know how many of you drive and how often, but I will tell you there is a plague in this country of headlight brightness. It is shockingly bright. If you look back to halogen lightbulbs, you're reaching somewhere around 700 to 1,200 lumens. New LED technology - these sons of bitches get to, like, 12,000 lumens.

A culvert on the side of Interstate 88 collapsed about 90 miles west of Albany, sending construction crews scrambling and motorists looking for detours.

Sandhu Ponnachan, 36, of Chariot Close, Alvaston, appeared at Southern Derbyshire Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, charged with six counts of causing grievous bodily harm with intent, one count of attempted grievous bodily harm, and one count of possession of a bladed article.

Compact, low-rise villages and cities made sense based on how far people could reasonably travel on foot or by horse. This was true all the way up until the late 1800s. Then came an invention that let people travel incredible distances in seconds, entirely reshaping cities with dense population clusters.

A man in his 30s has died after he was hit by a police vehicle on an emergency call in south London. The pedestrian was struck by the marked vehicle on Borough High Street at 00:34 GMT, the Metropolitan Police said.

HSE data repeatedly show the same patterns. Slips and trips on level ground, manual handling strains, falls from height, and road traffic collisions account for most non-fatal injuries. Beacon Law Solicitors have highlighted that in the 2022-23 reporting year, slips and trips made up roughly a third of employer-reported injuries, with handling and lifting close behind. Those are not anecdotes - they reflect the systems that failed in the real world.

Another day in California, another fatal "accident" taking the lives of innocent Californians whose only misfortune was being in the wrong place at the wrong time. This latest incident of driver negligence occurred in Westwood, in Los Angeles, on Feb. 5. The crash is strikingly similar to the one in Burlingame last summer, where a 19-year-old motorist killed 4-year-old Ayden Fang and sent a 6-year-old girl standing beside him on the sidewalk outside a downtown restaurant to Stanford Hospital.
