Source: South_agency / Getty A Black Las Vega s man was arrested last week after police initially stopped him for not having proper lighting and reflectors on his bicycle. According to reports, 50-year-old Byron Lee Williams raced off with the officers giving chase, but the man died in their custody after they subdued him. Local outlet KTNV reports : The incident began shortly before 6 a.m. near Bonanza Road and Martin Luther King Boulevard. Asst. Sheriff Charles Hank said that patrol officers from the Bolden Area Command came across a man who was riding a bicycle without a safety light. When they attempted to stop him, he took off. The patrol officers began chasing him. Initially the man, who has been identified as Byron Lee Williams, was still on his bike but then he began trying to escape on foot. The officers were eventually able to catch up with him and told the man to get on the ground. While being cuffed, Williams told the officers he couldn’t breathe. As they were taking him to the patrol car, Williams appeared to pass out. Officers called for assistance and the Las Vegas fire department arrived several minutes later. Medical personnel began treating Williams on the scene before transporting him to Valley Hospital. Williams was pronounced deceased at the hospital. The family of Williams is demanding answers in the case, most notably wondering why officers cut off their recording equipment while also ignoring Williams’ pleas that he could not breathe. Officials in Las Vegas are examining the incident, which took place last week Thursday. We’re watching the body camera footage showing the @LVMPD arrest of Byron Lee Williams. He later died. He ran from officers near Bonanza & MLK on Thursday before surrendering. We spoke with Williams’ family who says he was unjustly killed @KTNV pic.twitter.com/O5rcNVBdJg — Austin Carter (@AustinKTNV) September 9, 2019 — Photo: Getty
Source: VH1 / VH1 Evelyn Fights With Jennifer Again This new episode of Basketball Wives was full of drama, emotional goodbyes and rekindled feuds. First, let’s give a shout out to Tami , who, after a decade of trailblazing on the show, has decided to call it quits and move on. Golf claps for Tami! Now let’s get to the drama. Jennifer was the butt of the shade this week as she got confronted (some say bullied, even) over the fact she had Evelyn and Malaysia’s pics posted up on IG after her charity event. This is where Evelyn shade comes in: she suggests reposting the pic and taking Jennifer out. She also is part of the crew not wanting Jennifer to be at Shaunie’s opening in Costa Rica. This all led to people wondering why Evelyn is bringing up old stuff with Jennifer again.When Jennifer asks about being cropped out the pic, Evelyn brings up the time Jen talked about Shaniece from AGES ago. Again. This all led to Jennifer leaving the situation and Evelyn and OG arguing over…toes? WTF. #BasketballWives #BBWLA So now Evelyn has a problem with Jennifer all over again!! pic.twitter.com/namB6eh6W6 — CaptnOfDaCooLKidz (@ICanOnlyBeChino) September 12, 2019 Either way, Evelyn caught the brunt of the social media wrath because people are wondering why she is bringing up old fights with Jennifer. Wasn’t fighting with OG and making Jackie take a lie detector enough? Damn. Peep the dragging that commenced.

When an unexpected encounter introduces a powerful new alliance, Maleficent and Aurora are pulled apart to opposing sides in a Great War, testing their loyalties and causing them to question whether they can truly be family. “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” is directed by Joachim Rønning from a story by Linda Woolverton and a screenplay by Linda Woolverton and Noah Harpster & Micah Fitzerman-Blue.

Source: Robin L Marshall / Getty Tonight on another episode of Basketball Wives we got to see another round of these idiot grown women acting a’fool. Shaunie is getting into real estate, as we know. She wants some of her ventures to be overseas so she invited everyone except for Jenn to Costa Rica so there will be more girls trip shenanigans soon. Apparently, Shaunie is mad at Jenn again, and so is Evelyn. I don’t know what happened between the episode that they all made up and Jenn apologized, and tonight’s episode, but I guess Evelyn and Shaunie needed something to beef about because they went back to saying that Jenn wasn’t really genuine and that they were over her. It was like an episode of the Twilight Zone . Jenn has been on some BS at times during this show, but in this case, she really didn’t seem to be on her drama tip. She just left them claiming that she was done with them for real. Okay, girl. They always claim they’re done but the allure of attention via reality TV gets strong and they come running right back. Remember when Evelyn was “fixing her life” with Iyanla, got her own show and was allegedly on this positive kick? Then her show got canceled and she went running right back to Basketball Wives and it didn’t take her long to revert back to her old evil self. Anyway… The episode ends on another wack note with Evelyn and OG arguing again. OG is a straight shooter, and she’s not scared of these women, nor does she try too hard to be their friend, which they don’t seem like. So, Evelyn’s “Toe-gie” comment came up again and they started going back and forth about that. Basically, OG doesn’t appreciate Evelyn’s ish talking because if it were the other way around Evelyn would be trying to throw drinks, hands and whatever else, and we’ve seen it numerous times. They claim they don’t like OG because she’s aggressive but OG never actually acted on any of her threats. She has kept it quite calm throughout the entire season. There was even a moment where OG invited the group to a party that her family threw because she wanted them to get to know her and see her culture. Only Jackie and Jenn actually showed up (Cece couldn’t make it). OG was disappointed because it was her once again attempting to extend an olive branch only for her to b dismissed. To make things worse, word on these cyber streets is that OG wasn’t even allowed to film the reunion on stage, which was taped last Monday. Girl, they had her in another room communicating via satellite because the other women didn’t feel safe. Mind you, people who were there say there was fighting and object-throwing happening on stage. Obviously, none of that was OG. So, once again, we’re back wondering why they were so afraid of OG. She did make some threats here and there but again never actually acted violently and she only verbally sparred with people who came at her first with whatever shady comment they felt like making that day. It’s no different from when your mom threatened to kill you but never actually did. So, say it with me, colorism (might even be xenophobia too). OG even seemed to agree but according to MadameNoire, when it was brought up, she was dismissed, which is what people usually like to do when dark skin girls bring up colorism. Such a shame. Check out some of these tweets. Apparently, things were hot on these social media streets: Basketball Wives Started To Film The Reunion. #iheartog #basketballwives #basketballwivesreunion #realitytv pic.twitter.com/DAg4Zk2FcV — Queen_music08 (@QMusic08) September 9, 2019 sooo no Tami,Og,Or Cece for the #BasketballWivesreunion yeah so it's safe to say that I wont be watching it,og wasnt allowed to film with the girls on the couch she was forced to film separate…smh #BasketballWives pic.twitter.com/T6tjbHZbSY — F.R 11/14 (@ThatScorpboy) September 9, 2019 AND THERE iT iS..

But they met a match in OG u cant bully OG! Now they scared and wanna put her in a separate room for the reunion !! They're so !! — Carribbean MsGi'Dem (@msgidem) September 11, 2019 Did she delete it? — King of Locs (@TheKingofReads) September 11, 2019 Whooooooo chile! It has also been reported that CeCe left the reunion because she didn’t like what they were doing to OG, and Tami didn’t show up because she’s over it but she also wasn’t feeling their treatment of OG either. Honestly, at this point, OG and her man should get a spinoff on another network, hell, YouTube even. They are interesting and I would like to see more of them as a couple, more of OG trying to be a coach and whatever other million jobs she has, and more of her life as a Nigerian-American woman in an unconventional field of work. None of this birdbrain BS. RELATED POSTS ‘Basketball Wives’ Recap: This OG Situation Seems Like Colorism At Work ‘Basketball Wives’ Recap: CeCe Gets Caught Talking Greasy About OG
