There have been 12 documented biting incidents — including 11 with US Secret Service staff — involving the 2-year-old pooch in the past year. But sources told CNN that the actual number of incidents...

    A pair of beleaguered Brooklyn landlords whose properties were allegedly taken over by a convicted sex abuser facing an attempted murder charge have finally gotten their buildings back. The NYPD and a city marshal arrived Friday to oust 10 people who had been living illegally in the trio of rundown Neptune Avenue homes owned by Mohammed Choudary and Boysin Lorick, who had struggled for years to boot the squatters. When the pair bought the homes in 2019 for $1.3 million, Peter Fonseca, 45, was living behind one of the garage’s and refused to leave, according to court papers.

"Al Qaeda's favorite days: 9/11/01 and 11/04/08." "Work Harder. Obama needs the money." The bumper stickers and posters sold at "Free Market Warrior" at Concord Mills are meant to be "biting," the kiosk's owner Loren Spivack said. At least one passerby found them racist and bigoted, and took time to tell the mall in a letter and a letter to the editor of the Charlotte Observer. Whatever your opinion, the fact is this: At the end of July,...

    CHICAGO - A public Christmas festival is no place for the Christmas story, the city says. Officials have asked organizers of a downtown Christmas festival, the German Christkindlmarket, to reconsider using a movie studio as a sponsor because it is worried ads for its film "The Nativity Story" might offend non-Christians. New Line Cinema, which said it was dropped, had planned to play a loop of the new film on televisions at the event. The decision had both the studio and a prominent Christian group shaking their heads. "The last time I checked, the first six letters of Christmas still...

The privately-run ambulance was clamped on Saturday despite being parked in a section reserved for emergency crews.

Their boss said the clamping was "mind-blowing". The airport said it would refund the clamping charge of 63 euros (£43; $82). Spokeswoman Siobhan Moore said police had clamped the ambulance because it had remained for...

Armed federal agents removed Elian, then 6, from his Cuban-American...
