A day-long search for a man charged in a 2017 murder ended Monday with Houston police announcing that the suspect, last seen ushering a collared Bengal tiger into a white Jeep one day earlier, had been arrested.
On Tuesday, the manhunt was over, but the big cat was still at large.
Houston police said they are still seeking the tiger’s whereabouts.
Victor Hugo Cuevas was charged Monday with felony evading arrest and fleeing from police. He was already known to authorities: the 26-year-old was charged with murder in 2017 and was out on bond ahead of his upcoming trial. | |

John Lambert, one of the founders of Students for Trump, is now going to prison after being convicted of fraud in a scheme in which he pretended to be a lawyer and bilked unsuspecting victims out of tens of thousands of dollars. And in a heartwarming twist, it appears thathis Students for Trump co-founder Ryan Fournier, who reportedly was his partner in crime, cooperated with federal authorities in helping to nab Lambert. Truly an incredible tale of two assholes! | |

It took a strong woman and a House Republican conference that threatened her. It took GOP leadership more interested in regaining power than in abiding by the Constitution. And it took a Republican Party devoted to nothing other than Donald Trump.
So finally, Liz Cheney did it. It was clear she was going to be voted out of leadership, so she broke with her fellow leaders. She did it loudly and purposefully, saying the quiet part out loud, taking on the former guy directly inside the room with his defenders.
"We cannot let the former President drag us backward and make us complicit in his efforts to unravel our democracy. Down that path lies our destruction, and potentially the destruction of our country," she told them.
She was booed by some of her colleagues, according to a source in the room. | |

A man showed up to a Zoom court date with the screenname Buttfucker 3000. It was a routine morning in the court of Jeffrey Middleton, a judge from St. Joseph County in Michigan, when Nathan Saxaon logged in to respond to drug paraphernalia charges.
“Good morning sir, what’s your name?” Middleton said when Saxaon joined the meeting with the screename Buttfucker 3000.
“Me?” Saxaon said
“Yes.” Middleton said.
“Nathaniel Saxaon, sir.”
“Your name's not Buttfucker 3000, you yoho,” Middleton said as a distressed and confused Saxaon scanned the crowd (he might have meant to call him a "yahoo" but he pronounces it "yoho" in the video. | |

Question: “As we sit here today you don’t have any idea what was in the liquid concentrate?”
Casey Aiken: “Not a clue.”
Question: “OK. And you don’t know where it came from?”
Casey Aiken: “Not a clue.”
Aiken said in September or October, he was mixing a new batch in the tanks, and got a low reading on a meter he was using to measure the water’s alkalinity level so he called his manger, Brent Jones’ son Blaine, to ask what to do.
Question: “And he told you to add more concentrate?”
Casey Aiken: “Correct.”
Question: “And he didn’t tell you how much?”
Casey Aiken: “No, he didn’t tell me how much.”
Aiken said he decided to add two and a half more gallons of the concentrate to the water.
Question: “You do understand that if you potentially add more concentrate than you — you usually use that there could potentially be a problem with the water, right?”
Casey Aiken: “I wouldn’t think so.”
Question: “You would think so?”
Casey Aiken: “No, I wouldn’t.”
Question: “OK, but you don’t know what’s in the concentrate.”
Casey Aiken: “If I’m putting into somebody that’s ingesting it, I would think that it’s safe no matter what. That’s my thought.” | |

The person who wrote Malone's police reform plan has denied the validity of vaccines and the Biden presidency and doubted the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their initial proposal included language referring to Black community members as "transient" and praised the town's French-Canadian heritage, which multiple community members pushed back against, and even protested.
"You could very well not be actively hating on a group, a total group," Smart said, "but we’re all participating in systemic racism. We’re all doing it."
Ultimately, Malone updated their plan, which includes the creation of an anti-racism committee and new policies of how to handles hate crimes.
