It took one second for a Southern California cop to shoot and kill a Black teenager who was running away from another teen who had been shooting at him.
San Diego police say they found a gun concealed under the teen’s clothing after shooting him, but body camera footage released Friday shows the teen never threatened police with the gun, nor was he even holding the gun in his hands.
In fact, San Diego police officer Daniel Gold never even gave him a chance to surrender before opening fire. And he did not even identify himself as a cop until after he had shot the teen, yelling out “San Diego police” once the teen was doubled over on the street, crying out in pain. | |

North American ESRB ratings are bucking global trends
Last week, the Pan-European Game Information rating system, better known as PEGI, announced significant changes to how they assess games. The updated guidelines will take into account many recent game design trends that have become commonplace, such as online player behavior, dark patterns that pressure continuous play, and randomized elements attached to purchases like loot boxes. In response, the ESRB, the North American game ratings board, says adopting the new PEGI guidelines would be “confusing” for players and parents.
“ESRB’s age and content rating are based on the content of a game and the context in which it is presented to the player,” an ESRB representative told The Game Business. “It could be confusing if non-content-related features influence rating category assignments. As such, there are currently no plans for ESRB to allow any factors outside of the content and context of a game to influence the age rating assignment.”
The new criteria could upset a wide number of popular games long understood to be “for everyone.” EA Sports FC is the most obvious example, a paid game whose financial success revolves around gambling on randomized card packs. Roblox, too, is overwhelmingly popular with children despite the hazards of its online ecosystem. | |

A team of wildlife experts with the Pacific Whale Foundation snapped a photo of a breaching dolphin flying 15 feet into the air off Maui’s west shore on March 4.
According to the National Marine Fisheries Service, larger species of dolphin can leap more than 20 feet over the surface of the water. The dolphin seen in this photo is a pantropical spotted dolphin — a smaller species that typically grows 6 to 7 feet long and weighs approximately 250 pounds when fully grown.
Despite the dolphin’s smaller frame, the animal was still able to catch some big air, leading the Pacific Whale Foundation to dub the animal “the Michael Jordan of dolphins.” | |

Hundreds of cats and dogs were the focus of a large-scale animal rescue operation Friday morning when authorities served a warrant at a property in northern Los Angeles County.
The warrant for a violation of animal welfare laws was served in Lake Hughes, about 65 north of Los Angeles. Authorities estimated that about 700 dogs and cats were on the property.
County of Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control staff members and mutual aid partners were at the location. The county departments of public works, public health and regional planning also responded due to other possible violations at the property, authorities said in a news release.
The DACC said it is the largest number of cats and dogs ever seized in an operation and might be the largest such case ever in the United States, the agency said in its release.
It was not immediately whether anyone was arrested in connection with the violations. The property owner operates a nonprofit animal rescue and took in more animals than they could properly care for, county animal care officials said. | |

The Massachusetts congressman is struggling to land his message of generational change with his past anti-trans comments haunting him.
Days after Donald Trump won his second election to the White House, Democrats flocked to the New York Times to blame their stunning electoral defeat on alleged capitulations to minority groups — and cement themselves as the future leaders of the party.
Few appeared more eager than Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., a moderate congressman and former presidential candidate with a reputation for bucking party leadership.
That was over a year ago. Now, Moulton is running to unseat one of the most progressive members of the Senate, in the bluest state in the country, on a platform of generational change. And the anti-trans comments he’d hoped would establish him as a thought leader could help tank his campaign.
Polls consistently show Moulton trailing his opponent, incumbent Sen. Ed Markey, particularly among younger voters. Despite making a case for a new generation in office, Moulton has a 3 percent favorability rating among likely voters ages 18 to 34, compared to Markey’s 67 percent, according to a February 24 poll from the University of New Hampshire. Only 2 percent of likely Massachusetts primary voters under 34 said they would vote for Moulton if the race were held that day, while 53 percent said they would support Markey. | |

Chuck Norris, the martial arts grandmaster and action star whose roles in “Walker, Texas Ranger” and other television shows and movies made him an iconic tough guy — sparking internet parodies and adoration from presidents — has died at 86.
Norris died Thursday, in what his family described as a “sudden passing.”
“While we would like to keep the circumstances private, please know that he was surrounded by his family and was at peace,” the family said in a statement posted to social media. | |
