Forty-year-old Christopher G. Robertson was kayaking in Georgian Bay in Collingwood, Ontario, when the kayak took on water and capsized.
He held onto his overturned kayak and called for help. Jamey Ruth Klassen, 16, high school student from Guelph, Ontario, was on the beach and entered the water and swam about 600 feet to the kayak.
By then, Robertson had submerged. Seeing him on the bottom of the lake, Jamey dived 12 feet and pulled him to the surface.
Jamey positioned Robertson face up with his head on her shoulder. He was unconscious and not breathing.
Grasping him around the chest with one arm, she used the other arm and her legs to swim toward shore with Robertson.
Jamey was nearly exhausted and shouted for help. A man on a paddleboard responded, and he and Jamey placed Robertson on the board.
The man took Robertson to shore, where he was removed from the water. Jamey swam to shore. Robertson was revived and taken to a hospital, where he was treated. He recovered.
Illegal Fireworks Operation = #ShutDown!
After receiving intel about fireworks for sale being advertised on social media, Fort Worth Police investigators identified locations on E. Berry St. & Donalee St. connected to this operation.
With the assistance of the @FortWorthFire Bomb and Arson, investigators were able to confiscate a large quantity of fireworks intended for illegal sale and distribution within the @CityofFortWorth.
Illegal fireworks are against the law and put our neighborhoods, first responders, and property at risk.
We will continue to enforce city ordinances and hold violators accountable.

‼️Violent Offender already out on bond kills repairman who was just trying to work.
Jaime Garcia was booked into the Harris County Jail today on a murder charge.
At the time of his arrest, Garcia was already out on bond in the 248th District Court under Judge Hilary Unger on charges of:
Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon (Felony)
And the 5th Criminal Court with Judge David Fleischer for
Criminal Mischief $750-$2,500 (Misdemeanor)
Assault of a Family Member (Misdemeanor)
His criminal history dates back to 2012 and includes convictions for possession of marijuana, possession of a controlled substance, unlawful carrying of a weapon, assault causing bodily injury, and a First-Degree Felony conviction for Manufacture/Delivery of a Controlled Substance (400 grams or more), for which he was sentenced to 5 years in TDCJ before later being paroled even after parole violations had been filed.
Another defendant accused of a violent crime while already out on bond for a violent felony. The revolving door has real consequences.
A heartbreaking case out of DeRidder, Louisiana. Four little girls—led by their brave 9‑year‑old sister guided police to the bathroom where their mother, 28‑year‑old Ashley Fish, lay dead. The oldest kept her siblings away from the scene, protecting them in a moment no child should ever face.
Police first didn’t know if it was suicide or a killer on the loose. But evidence quickly pointed to Ashley’s boyfriend, Tyler Durachowski—who tried to spin a self‑defense story. Forensics proved otherwise: her phone still in her hand, her hair inside the barrel, and the gun pressed directly against her head. This wasn’t an accident. It was an execution.
He fled, called 911 hours later, and tried to act calm. But the truth caught up. He was convicted of second‑degree murder and sentenced to life without parole.
Four daughters lost their mother. A community lost a friend. And a detective had to investigate the homicide of someone he once went to school with.

"The vet looked at me and said, 'It might be time to think about saying goodbye.'" Max stopped eating four days ago. Stopped getting up. I'd already started preparing myself. Then Buddy did something I will never forget. He climbed up on that exam table — something he's NEVER allowed to do — and he wouldn't stop pressing his face against Max's. The vet tech tried to gently move him away. Buddy wouldn't budge. And then, for the first time in four days — Max lifted his head. The vet just stood there. Didn't say a word. We're not out of the woods. The vet wants to run more tests tomorrow. But tonight, Max ate three bites of food. Tonight, Max is still here. I don't know what tomorrow holds. But I know I watched a Labrador refuse to let his best friend give up. If you believe dogs fight for each other the way they fight for us — drop a ❤️ for Max and Buddy tonight. He needs all the strength he can get.
