Mass shooting outside New York nightclub injures 10

At least 10 people were injured in a shooting outside the Amazura nightclub in Queens, New York, on Wednesday night. While the incident is under investigation, the New York Police Department confirmed that none of the victims are in critical condition.

This shooting incident in Queens follows a deadly attack in New Orleans on New Year's Day, where a U.S. Army veteran drove his pickup truck into a crowd, killing 15 people and injuring many others.

A violent shooting erupted outside a nightclub in Queens, New York, on New Year's Day, leaving 10 people injured, according to police. The attack took place outside the Amazura nightclub in Jamaica at approximately 11:18 pm on Wednesday.
Authorities reported that a group of three to four men approached the venue and unleashed over 30 gunshots toward a crowd standing in line for an event, damaging vehicles and striking individuals.

The victims, six females and four males aged 16 to 20, were predominantly teenagers. Despite the severity of the incident, none of the injuries are life-threatening, and all victims are expected to recover, NYPD officials confirmed during a press briefing on Thursday.
The police are actively searching for a light-colored sedan believed to be connected to the shooting. Investigators emphasized that the incident was not linked to terrorism.
The Amazura nightclub, known for its vast 4,000-person capacity and frequent DJ and live performances, became the unfortunate scene of this violent act.
The incident coincided with a separate terror attack in New Orleans earlier that day, where 15 people lost their lives.

New York Catholic Diocese To Pay $323 Million To Survivors Of Child Sexual Abuse By Priests

New York's Rockville Centre diocese will pay more than 323 million dollars to about 530 survivors who alleged they were sexually abused by priests when they were children. The Roman Catholic diocese announced the new bankruptcy settlement, after a previous settlement offer of 200 million dollars was rejected by the survivors. Rockville Centre will contribute nearly 235 million dollars to the settlement fund, with four insurers covering the rest. The diocese filed for bankruptcy in October 2020, citing the cost of lawsuits filed by childhood victims of clergy sexual abuse. More than two dozen churches have filed for bankruptcy in recent years over similar lawsuits, showing the extant of sexual abuse faced by children at the hands of priests.

The trial was delayed after Trump's lawyers said they need more to time to study a recent tranche of evidence received by them.&nbsp;

New York judge delays Trump's hush money trial for 30 days

The trial was delayed after Trump's lawyers said they need more to time to study a recent tranche of evidence received by them. 

The trial was delayed after Trump's lawyers said they need more to time to study a recent tranche of evidence received by them.&nbsp;

The New York judge presiding over Donald Trump's trial for allegedly covering up hush money payments linked to extramarital affairs ordered a delay Friday in proceedings that had been scheduled to get underway on March 25.
"Trial on this matter is adjourned for 30 days from the date of this letter on consent of the People," Judge Juan Merchan said in a court filing that will push the trial to at least mid-April.
The exact date will be determined at a hearing on March 25 which will also address complaints by the defense team about the disclosure of evidence ahead of trial, the letter said.
Prosecutors preparing to try Trump, the first former US president to face criminal prosecution, said Thursday they would accept a delay of up to 30 days after both sides received a deluge of case documents.
Trump, seeking a comeback as the Republican candidate in this year's election, is accused of covering up hush money payments related to his successful 2016 bid for the White House.
"An immediate adjournment is appropriate," Trump's legal team wrote on Thursday in a letter to the judge.
But it argued "30 days is not sufficient given the volume of recently produced materials and the nature of the ongoing disputes."
Prosecutors say Trump illegally covered up remittances to his longtime aide Michael Cohen to reimburse him for payments made to bury stories revealing Trump's alleged extramarital sexual relations with porn star Stormy Daniels and a Playboy model. He denies the charges.
A New York grand jury indicted Trump in March 2023 over the payments made to Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.
A Trump campaign statement said the former president and his attorneys "have been consistent and steadfast that this case has no basis in law or fact, and should be dismissed."
"We will continue to fight to end this hoax," it said.
In a historic first, Trump is facing four criminal cases as he campaigns to retake the White House, with his legal teams working to delay any trial starts until after the November 5 vote.
In one of them, in which Trump faces trial in Georgia for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election results, the judge ruled Friday against his legal team's efforts to disqualify the top prosecutor over claims of an improper relationship.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee said District Attorney Fani Willis could remain on the high-profile case, as long as her lead prosecutor, Nathan Wade, stepped aside.
Trump, who has seized on his legal woes to portray himself to his right-wing supporters as persecuted by the Democrats, has claimed the charges are "just a way of hurting me in the election."
President Joe Biden and Trump have already amassed enough delegates in their party primaries to clinch the nominations, all but assuring a rematch and setting up one of the longest election campaigns in US history.

Students burst in tears of joy after knowing that Albert Einstein College of Medicine of New York will be tuition-free. The decision came after a donation of $1bn by a former professor of the college. 

Medical students find out college will be free, watch what happened next

A former teacher's gift brought tears of joy to the students of a medical college in New York City's Bronx.&nbsp;

Students of a medical college in New York burst into tears after finding out that they won't have to pay tuition fees anymore.&nbsp;
The heart-touching moment was captured on camera.&nbsp;
The video was taken on 26th February when a former professor of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine announced that she was donating $1 billion to the institution.&nbsp;
The college situated in Bronx has a tuition fee of $59,000 per year which the students won't have to pay from August 2024.&nbsp;
Dr Ruth Gottesman's (93) donation was a gift to the students and is the largest donation ever given to a medical school in the United States. &nbsp;
Addressing the students at the college, Dr Gottesman said, "I am happy to share with you that starting in August, this year, the Albert Einstein College of Medicine will be tuition-free."

New York has appointed a loneliness ambassador to help the people of the state fight social isolation

New York appoints state's first loneliness ambassador

New York has appointed a loneliness ambassador to help the people of the state fight social isolation

The American state of New York has chosen Dr Ruth Westheimer, a well-known sex therapist, as its first loneliness ambassador. According to a statement released by New York governor Kathy Hochul, the appointment is to fight the 'loneliness epidemic'. Dr Westheimer will help New Yorkers deal with social isolation.&nbsp;
"As New York works to fight the loneliness epidemic, some help from honorary Ambassador Ruth Westheimer may be just what the doctor ordered," Governor Hochul said in a statement.&nbsp;
"Studies show individuals experiencing loneliness had a 32 percent higher risk of dying early and we need leaders like Dr. Ruth to help address this critical component of our mental health crisis," she added.&nbsp;
The suggestion of making her a loneliness ambassador came from Dr Westheimer herself in 2022 to help New Yorkers deal with loneliness and isolation, especially in post-pandemic&nbsp;

A five-story floating jail in New York is set to be shut off, sending more than 500 prisoners to a facility in Rikers Island.

New York prison ship, last in US, to sail into the sunset

A five-story floating jail in New York is set to be shut off, sending more than 500 prisoners to a facility in Rikers Island.

Docked in the shallows off an industrial edge of the South Bronx, the Vernon C. Bain Correctional Center is a five-story jail barge that stretches the length of two football fields, resembling a container ship stacked with cargo.
It arrived in 1992 as a temporary measure to ease overcrowding on Rikers Island, the city&rsquo;s main jail complex for detainees awaiting trial. Three decades later, the 800-bed lockup &ndash; believed to be the last operating prison ship in the United States &mdash; is finally closing down.
It will be fully vacated by the end of this week, officials said, as part of a broader plan to replace the city's long-troubled correctional system with a network of smaller jails. For now, most of the roughly 500 detainees incarcerated on the ship will be transferred to Rikers Island, according to the Department of Correction, though the jails there are eventually supposed to close down, too.
Detainees and advocates have long regarded the boat as a grim vestige of mass incarceration, an enduring symbol of the city&rsquo;s failures to reform dangerous jails that exist on the periphery of New York, largely out of sight of many residents.
In recent years, the unusual nautical jail has drawn attention primarily for its failures: last September, a 44-year-old man, Gregory Acevedo, jumped from the top of the ship to his death; the year before that, Stephan Khadu, 24, died after contracting a form of treatable meningitis while in custody.
Darren Mack, co-director of the advocacy group Freedom Agenda, described the boat as a warehouse used by the Department of Corrections to hold detainees, mostly Black and Hispanic men, with minimal oversight. While noting the closure was long overdue, he added, transferring the inmates from the boat to Rikers Island "is not a good solution... because that transfer is just shifting people from the frying pan into the fire."
The last of an armada of floating jails used by New York City in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the Vernon C. Bain sits across the river from Rikers Island, between a wastewater treatment plant and a wholesale fish market.
Detainees are afforded a daily hour of recreation on a caged upper deck, where they were recently seen playing basketball on a sunny morning. Otherwise, their only natural light beams through the ship&rsquo;s tiny portholes.
Those who&rsquo;ve spent time on board say the boat rocks in the current. Its fading blue and white exterior &ndash; a far cry from the freshly-painted surfaces visible in the 1993 film &ldquo;Carlito&rsquo;s Way&rdquo; &ndash; is known to leak in the rain, occasionally short-circuiting the electrical system. Chunks of rust crack off the walls and ceilings.
Inside, detainees say they are packed into dormitories that grow suffocatingly hot in the summer, with cots that sit just a few inches from each other.
The use of maritime jails in the United States has long been controversial, dating back to the earliest days of the Revolutionary War, when thousands of Americans died aboard British ships parked in the New York Harbor.
Since then, the concept has been used sparingly &ndash; during the gold rush in California, most notably &ndash; often drawing allegations of cruelty and neglect, according to a recent study.
In the 1960s, a proposal by New York's correction commissioner to house inmates on repurposed ships was sunk by other local officials, who said the boats would give visitors the wrong image of the city. That sentiment began to change in the late 1980s and early 1990s, as drug arrests during the crack epidemic brought the population of Rikers Island to historic highs.
By the time the Vernon C. Bain arrived in the South Bronx, the city had already deployed four other floating jails &ndash; including two converted city ferries and a former trooper ship nicknamed the &ldquo;Love Boat&rdquo; &ndash; as low-cost, temporary facilities.
Mayor Edward Koch, an early champion of the idea, assured reporters that seasick inmates would be given Dramamine, dismissing questions about the boats&rsquo; viability by noting they were &ldquo;better accommodations&rdquo; than Rikers Island.
Stephan Khadu may have reached a similar conclusion as he awaited trial in a gang conspiracy case at Rikers Island. With the city's main jail complex gripped by both the coronavirus pandemic and rising violence in May 2020, Khadu volunteered to transfer to the Vernon C. Bain.
He later told his mother by phone that he would stare out the porthole of his new dormitory, pretending he was riding a jet ski in Miami.
But by the following summer, family members said, Khadu was complaining of the boat&rsquo;s stifling heat, mold and rodents that chewed through his food containers. He suffered a seizure in July of 2021. Two months later, he had a second seizure. He died on the way to the hospital, a few days short of his 24th birthday.
The cause of death was later revealed to be a complication of lymphocytic meningitis, a rodent-borne viral disease that, if properly treated, is not typically fatal.
His mom, Lezandre Khadu, blames the conditions on the boat.
"He didn't go in there sick," she said. &ldquo;There is nothing really to say other than that they didn't care.... it wasn't their son, it wasn't their husband, it wasn't their child."
The New York State Attorney General investigated Khadu&rsquo;s death but said they could not confirm allegations of improper care.
When the boat empties out, it won&rsquo;t be the first time. It closed in the mid-1990s, as the population of Rikers Island began to fall. But unlike the other shuttered floating jails, the Vernon C. Bain reopened &ndash; initially as a juvenile justice center under Mayor Rudy Giuliani, before later transitioning to a standard adult jail.
A spokesperson for the Department of Correction, Latima Johnson, declined to say what the city plans to do with the boat going forward. It will remain, for now, within the custody of the Department of Correction.

&ldquo;The reason for this move is to centralize operations on the island to more efficiently manage people in custody and deploy staff and resources,&rdquo; Johnson said in an email.
Once the move is complete, Lezandre Khadu is planning a trip to see the boat where her son spent the final year of his life. She intends to celebrate its long-delayed closure.
&ldquo;I am beyond pleased that that place is getting closed down where my son lost his life in the most horrific torturing way,&rdquo; she said.

The carrier reported the matter to the Delhi airport before landing on April 23 and both the passengers involved were later handed over to the Delhi Police.

Man held for urinating on fellow passenger on board New York-Delhi flight

An Indian man travelling from New York to Delhi in an American Airlines flight has been apprehended at the Delhi airport for allegedly urinating on his co-passenger, news agency PTI reported.

The carrier reported the matter to the Delhi airport before landing on April 23 and both the passengers involved were later handed over to the Delhi Police.

An Indian man travelling from New York to Delhi in an American Airlines flight has been apprehended at the Delhi airport for allegedly urinating on his co-passenger, official sources said Monday.
The accused Indian passenger was stated by the airlines staff to be under the influence of liquor and he urinated on his co-passenger during an argument, they said.
The incident took place on board American Airlines flight AA 292 and the alleged "unruly" passenger was apprehended by the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) after the plane landed at the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport around 9 PM on Sunday.
The victim passenger has filed a formal complaint with the airlines, the sources told PTI.
The carrier reported the matter to the Delhi airport before landing and both the passengers involved were later handed over to the Delhi Police.
A senior police officer said legal action has been taken in the matter under non-cognisable offences.
The police initiated the action after the complaint given by the airlines staff about the unruly behaviour of the passenger.
"There was no corroborative evidence or complaint given by co-passengers regarding someone peeing on them," Deputy Commissioner of Police (Airport) Devesh Kumar Mahla said.
Incidents of passengers allegedly urinating on co-passengers purportedly after consuming liquor have been reported in the recent past.
An inebriated man allegedly urinated on his female co-passenger in her seventies in the business class of an Air India New York-Delhi flight on November 26 last year.
The matter came to light in January and the Delhi Police arrested the man a few days later. Air India imposed a 30-day travel ban on him.
The second such incident was reported on board an Air India Paris-New Delhi flight on December 6, 2022 when a passenger allegedly relieved himself on a vacant seat and blanket of a fellow female passenger when she went to the lavatory.&nbsp;

What&rsquo;s worse than being single? Having to pay extra because you&rsquo;re not in a relationship.
According to a study conducted by the real estate firm Zillow, New York City is the most expensive place to live for singles. &nbsp;
As per the study findings, singles pay on average $19,500 more a year for a one-bedroom, compared to someone living with a partner in the same area. This figure rises even higher in Manhattan; $24,000.&nbsp;
San Francisco, also known as a high-price city, charges $14,000 'singles tax' for a one-bedroom apartment. However, cities like Detroit and Cleveland have the lowest singles tax at $4,483 and $4,387 respectively.
Partners who live together in New York City save an average of $39,000 per year, Zillow study concluded.&nbsp;

New York: 22 fire incidents sparked by E-bike batteries reported this year causing 2 deaths

Many of the fires blamed on the batteries have been caused by malfunctioning devices left to charge overnight and placed in a hallway

Lithium-ion batteries used to power electric bicycles and scooters have already sparked 22 fires that caused 36 injuries and two deaths in New York City this year, four times the number of fires linked to the batteries by this time last year, officials said.
On Friday, Fire Commissioner Laura Kavanagh said Mayor Eric Adams' administration is &ldquo;coming at this problem from every single angle,&rdquo; including working with the City Council and the federal Consumer Product Safety Commission on additional regulations for the batteries and educating the public on their proper use and storage.
&ldquo;These are incredibly dangerous devices, and we must make sure that members of the community are handling them properly and using them safely,&rdquo; Kavanagh said at a briefing on public safety.
Many of the fires blamed on the batteries have been caused by malfunctioning devices left to charge overnight and placed in a hallway or near a door where they can trap people inside a burning apartment.
Three children and an adult were injured this month when a charging battery started a fire in their upper Manhattan apartment at 1:30 am, officials said.
Fire Department Chief of Operations John Esposito said after the February 5 blaze that when the battery overheated and sparked a fire, "it blocked the egress out of the apartment, trapping the family.&rdquo; Kavanagh said the e-bike batteries &ldquo;present often an immediate inability to exit one's room or one's apartment or one's home.
So it's really critical that we work with all our partners up here in government around enforcement, around education, around combating the hazards that these present to citizens and first responders.&rdquo;

New York: flight operations at JF Kennedy airport impacted after major power outage

The outage was caused by an electrical panel failure that led to a small fire, airport operators said. The fire was quickly extinguished.

A power outage at New York's John F Kennedy International Airport stretched into a second day Friday, stranding passengers and forcing flights to be canceled or diverted to other airports.
The airport operators said in a tweet late Thursday that Terminal 1, the international terminal, would remain closed Friday &ldquo;due to electrical issues." They advised travelers to check with their carriers for flight status before coming to the airport.
The outage was caused by an electrical panel failure that led to a small fire, airport operators said. The fire was quickly extinguished.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs New York's major airports, said it was working to accommodate affected flights at other terminals. Some planes were forced to return to their points of origin.
An Air New Zealand flight was two-thirds of the way across the Pacific Ocean when it had to make a U-turn and head back to Auckland. The flight landed back in New Zealand after more than 16 hours in the air.
No update on the outage was provided Friday by the Port Authority.

The first report of a truck crashing into pedestrians and cyclists came in at 10.30 am, police said, and other reports followed as the vehicle moved through a busy section of Brooklyn.

New York: truck driver on 'violent rampage', runs over scooter-riders; held after mile-long chase by cops

The first report of a truck crashing into pedestrians and cyclists came in at 10.30 am, police said, and other reports followed as the vehicle moved through a busy section of Brooklyn.

A man driving a U-Haul truck swerved onto sidewalks and ploughed into scooter riders in New York City on Monday, injuring multiple people before police were able to pin the careening vehicle against a building following a mile-long pursuit through Brooklyn.
At least eight people were hurt, two critically. The driver was arrested. His son identified him as Weng Sor, 62, a troubled man with a history of violence and stints behind bars.
New York City Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell described the driver's behaviour as a "violent rampage," but said there was no evidence of "terrorism involvement."
The truck sped through the Bay Ridge neighbourhood before police stopped it more than 5 kilometres away, near the entrance to a tunnel leading from Brooklyn to Manhattan.
Weng Sor's son, Stephen Sor, 30, told The Associated Press that his father had a history of mental illness and, until recently, was living in Las Vegas.
"Very frequently he'll choose to skip out on his medications and do something like this," Stephen Sor said in an interview outside his Brooklyn home. "This isn't the first time he's been arrested. It's not the first time he's gone to jail."
The first report of a truck crashing into pedestrians and cyclists came in at 10.30 am, police said, and other reports followed as the vehicle moved through a busy section of Brooklyn.
Katherine Aronova said she saw the U-Haul run a red light, hit a delivery worker on an e-bike in the middle of the road and drag him a short distance.
"His face was covered with blood. He was unconscious," and his shoes were scattered on the sidewalk, Aronova said. "The electric bicycle was destroyed completely."
A security camera video showed the truck clip a scooter, then swerve onto a sidewalk and nearly plough into a pedestrian, who dived to safety just in time. A police patrol car then followed the truck down the sidewalk at high speed.

Bay Ridge, a melting pot of immigrants from Europe, Asia and the Middle East, sits just north of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge along New York Harbor.

Stephen Sor described his relationship with his father as "rocky," and said his father had a history of mental illness, as well as not taking medications and acting out.
He said he didn't speak to his father often and was surprised when he showed up in Brooklyn in the middle of the night about a week ago.
"I try to just distance, as long as he leaves us alone," Sor said.
Weng Sor's criminal records date back nearly two decades.
In 2015, he stabbed his brother in Las Vegas and served about 17 months in a Nevada prison, according to court and prison records.
In 2020, he stabbed someone in the arm and chest with a knife and was sentenced to 364 days in county jail, with about 10 months of time already served.
Before pleading guilty in that case, Sor underwent several months of evaluations at state psychiatric facilities until he was found competent to face charges, court records show. The records don't list a possible diagnosis, but note that Sor was placed on medications.
In an earlier Nevada case, Sor was ordered to undergo counselling and perform community service after pleading guilty to misdemeanour battery in 2005.
The judge noted that he was soon moving to New York and ordered him to submit to a mental health evaluation once there.

Female cancer patient offloaded from New York-bound flight; DGCA seeks report from airline

Cancer patient offloaded from New York-bound flight in Delhi; DGCA orders probe

The incident also went viral on social media, and people urging the Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA) and Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) to take note of the matter.

A female cancer patient, who recently underwent a surgery, was allegedly offloaded from a New York-bound flight of American Airlines at Delhi airport after she sought assistance from a flight attendant to keep her hand-bag in overhead cabin.
The incident was reported on January 30, and it came to light after the United Statesbased traveller, identified as Meenakshi Sengupta, lodged a complaint against the flight attendant accusing them of refusing to help her put the handbag weighing more than 5 pounds in the overhead cabin as she was unable to do so because of weak limbs.
In her complaint to the Delhi Police and the Civil Air, Meenakshi Sengupta said that she had also requested for wheelchair assistance to her seat, "I was also wearing a brace which was visible to everyone and they would know that I have some discomfort...because I CANNOT carry any weight in my hands at all and I'm weak from the surgery and don't need to strain myself by walking a lot." She said, "The ground staff was very supportive and helped me get into the aircraft and put my handbag on the side of the seat. Once inside the flight, I had a conversation with the air hostess and I explained my health condition to them...None of them mentioned about putting my handbag away. After the flight was about to take off, cabin lights were dimmed. At that time an air hostess came to put my hand bag in the overhead compartment. I requested her to help me put it but she refused to do so and told me it's not her job to do.
