WTF? Firefighter Accused of Spitting On Preschooler And Calling Him The N-Word At Hooters

Raymond Boyd/Getty Images Firefighter Accused Of Calling A Toddler The N-Word According to reports from KCTV 5 News , a man in Kansas is accused of spitting on a preschool-aged boy and calling him the n-word while dinning at a Hooters restaurant in Overland Park, Kansas on Monday. Apparently, the young reportedly wandered away from a birthday party that his family was attending at the restaurant, which for some reason made this other patron upset. When one of the boy’s relatives came to retrieve him, a man reportedly began calling the child racial slurs and, at one point, spit on him. A source told KCTV, “He basically said get that little ‘blank’ up off the floor…The n-word started to get thrown around.” The witness said he was sure a physical altercation would ensue, but police were called to the restaurant as soon as things got heated. Once authorities arrived, the man reportedly told officers that everything was alright because he was a first-responder. “I didn’t catch what the officer said to him, but his immediate response was ‘It’s OK, I’m a fireman,’” the witness recalled. “Like that was supposed to blanket cover everything for him.” This “firefighter” wasn’t arrested, but the Overland Park police insist they continue to work with the case. This man could face criminal charges including battery and making a criminal threat. Continue reading

Get Your Life Together: Columbus Short Sentenced To A Year In Jail For Hitting His New Wife

Maury Phillips/WireImage Columbus Short Pleads No Contest To Hitting His Wife According to reports from TMZ , Columbus Short is set to go away to jail for a few months. If you know anything about the actor, you’ve probably heard stories of him being fired from his gig on the popular TV series Scandal after reports of domestic abuse, and it looks like years later, he still hasn’t learned his lesson. Short entered his plea on Friday in Los Angeles after getting arrested back in November. According to prosecutors, he hit new wife Aida Abramyan during an argument–he was sentenced to 36 months probation and domestic violence education. Unfortunately for Short, he was already on probation for a 2014 bar fight where he knocked out a guy, so he got the year in jail for violating his probation. As aforementioned, Columbus has serious issues with domestic violence. He’s also on probation for a previous incident where he allegedly   put a knife to his ex-wife’s throat. Short announced his engagement and pregnancy with current wife just months after breaking up with Karrine Steffans in 2016. Even though the actor himself pleaded no contest to the charge, his wife is telling a different story. She took to Twitter to show support of her husband and say the media has it all wrong. The media needs to check their facts!!…Columbus and I have a great marriage. Period. The media is ridiculous for posting this bs. I love my hubby and will continue to support him. @ColumbusShort1 — Aida Short (@Aida006) March 3, 2018 Continue reading
