A 9-year-old ran for his mom. His 2-year-old brother, sitting on the floor, scooted just a few inches away from the wall. Seconds later, the building came down on both of them.
A camera inside the family’s apartment shows the moment the wall beside the toddler gives way, opening the room to daylight. All three survived, but the 9-year-old was in intensive care after surgery on his skull, and their mother has serious injuries to her ribs, spine, and collarbone. “That movement, in my opinion, saved his life,” their dad said of his youngest. Others weren’t as lucky. Eight people died when the three-story building at 1321 Flatbush Avenue collapsed, including a 9-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy. Construction workers were excavating an empty lot next door when it happened, and the mayor said he was troubled to learn cracks had been reported in the building’s facade months earlier. Eight families are grieving, and they deserve answers.
Who should be held responsible when warning signs like cracks are ignored?
Both rooms have issues, but I'd choose 2 for safety reasons - bed is further away from the door and you have a nightstand for weapon storage. In room 1, where do you put your alarm clock? If a robber or whatever comes into the room you're toast. They'll slit your throat before you even wake up. There's no nightstand to store a weapon in. Maybe if you stand in the middle of the doors in room 2 the closet door opens?
Most people running from an avalanche are worried about surviving. This dude figures if he's going out, he's going out in style. 😂
Just watch this guy!
OMG. Video reportedly captured on a Mahoning Valley Community Schools bus in Ohio shows a male student BRUTALLY attacking a female student as others laugh and do nothing.
The bus driver and the aide also allegedly did NOT intervene to stop the attack.
School officials also allegedly did not contact the female student's parents, and she was not seen by the nurse.
We reached out to the school for comment, but they did not respond.
Sometimes the smallest voices carry the biggest love for America. 🇺🇸❤️
On Veterans Day, a little boy visiting the San Antonio Zoo spotted a bald eagle and began singing “God Bless America.”
What a beautiful moment. A young child, our national symbol, and a song that means so much to this country.
God bless our veterans, and God bless America! 🇺🇸
Some people say that the hardest thing to look at are lips that you can’t kiss.
Not me.
I think the hardest thing is to look at a face that you can’t punch.
@ReneeDahl5 Because I’ve read numerous stories of cops killing their K9’s. Some were left in hot cars, some by starvation and one even shot his own dog while shooting at the perp - he should have called the dog back before shooting.
