Enough is enough!?!? The shootings have got to stop! Via The Huffington Post : A single violent Saturday in Chicago left three people dead—including one man police say was shot more than 15 times—as the homicide rate gets off to a troubling start in the new year. Around 3:10 p.m. Saturday, DNAinfo Chicago reports the man was found shot multiple times in the abdomen on the 5500 block of South Loomis Boulevard in the West Englewood neighborhood. The man was not immediately identified by the Cook County Medical Examiner’s office, though Police News Affairs Officer Daniel O’Brien told DNAinfo police believe they have “a possible offender” in custody. The day got off to a bloody start with a another homicide in Humboldt Park where a 25-year-old River Grove man was shot in the chest around 7 a.m. The Tribune reports David Kartzmark was shot near in the 1500 block of North Talman and died in the the ambulance before even reaching the hospital. Police have no suspects in custody. Around 6:45 p.m., police responded to a South Chicago home in the 8300 block of South Kingston Avenue where they found 55-year-old Angela Welch stabbed multiple times, reports the Sun-Times. Welch’s 25-year-old daughter is suspected of stabbing her mother during a domestic dispute and was taken into custody after initially fleeing from authorities. Ten more people were injured in single-day shootings around the city, said the Sun-Times in a separate report. Shootings were dispersed throughout Chicago Saturday, even including areas like Irving Park that don’t normally see gun violence. A 22-year-old man killed in an expressway shooting in the early hours of Sunday morning marked Chicago’s 10th homicide within the first week of 2013. When will this violence stop!? Images via AP

200 Person Flash Mob Breaks Into A Fight And Shuts Down Lousiana Mall [Video]

Posted on January 6, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The police had to evacuate the entire place! Via ABC News : The Mall of Louisiana was evacuated Saturday night after a flash mob turned into an ugly brawl. Cellphone video captured the chaos as shoppers jammed escalators and ran for the nearest exits in Baton Rouge, the state capital. Employees at the mall were ordered to abandon their cash registers and evacuate immediately. The fight broke out in the mall food court, where 200 teens had gathered for a flash mob. “We think there was some sort of post on social media about a flash mob for tonight which drew such a large crowd of juveniles,” Casey Rayborn Hicks, a spokeswoman for the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office, said. Hicks said deputies are investigating the events that led to the fight. The panic was especially acute, weeks after a gunman opened fire at an Oregon mall, killing three people, including himself, and injuring one. “Saw people running and screaming I turned around a girl told me someone has a gun I started running with them,” shopper Missy Melancon wrote on Facebook. No injuries or weapons were reported, though nerves were rattled. “Never been that scared in my life,” Juston D’Nea Millet wrote on Facebook. “People were running everywhere. It was like a movie, but you were in it.” SMH. We thought the hype around flash mobs had finally worn off. Images via youtube/facebook

Senseless: 16-Year-Old NYC Boy Murdered After Refusing To Hand Over $600 Jacket To Gang Members

Posted on January 6, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Jesus take the wheel … NYC Boy Murdered After Refusing To Hand Over $600 Jacket A 16-year-old boy is dead, after being shot Friday night on the Lower East Side. Via NYPost reports: A Lower East Side teenager by the name of Raphael Ward was senselessly slaughtered after he refused to hand over his trendy Marmot winter parka to a gang of thugs, police sources said yesterday. The gunman, described as 5-foot-6, 120 to 140 pounds, was wearing a dark wool hat and a ski mask when he walked up to Ward in the 32 degree cold and shot him just minutes after the altercation over the jacket, police sources said. After he was shot, a dying Ward — still wearing his bloodied parka — stumbled across the street to the Tearedhan convenience store and told workers there he had been approached by a group of people who had wanted his jacket, police sources said. The Marmot parkas can sell for as much as $600. Police are looking at security-camera video that may have captured the coldblooded murder. The victim’s stunned friend Cynthia Nieves, 14, said she met Ward just before he was gunned down. Although he didn’t tell her what was wrong, he warned her: “Go home!” “He knew they were coming back,” she said. Nicholas Ramos, 18, said he and Ward went to get a slice of pizza across from the church, but Ward “stopped to talk to somebody and I went across the street to the pizza place, and that’s when he got shot,” said Ramos. Ramos said he heard several shots, but waited a minute before he ran out to help Ward. The victim was later declared dead at Beth Israel Hospital. A young life cut short because of a simple piece of clothing, how sad. Keep the Ward family in your prayers. Tajanae Brown

Posted on January 5, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Hasn Four Killed In Aurora Colorado Courthouse Shooting Via NYDailyNews An “armed and dangerous man” barricaded himself inside a suburban Denver home on Saturday, killing three hostages before he was fatally shot by police, investigators said. A fifth person inside the home was able to escape. Officers were called to the townhome in Aurora, Colo. around 3 a.m. after reports of shots fired, Sgt. Cassidee Carlson told the Daily News. An “armed and dangerous” man was inside the home and refused to surrender to police, she said. After a nearly six hour standoff, officers shot and killed the suspect and discovered three bodies inside the home, police said. It was unclear how and when those victims were killed. Streets leading to the home were closed off as police tried to seal the scene. Neighbors told local media that they smelled tear gas. As many as 40 officers, including SWAT teams and hostage negotiators, had responded to what police called an “intense” scene. Hostage negotiators spoke briefly on the phone with the suspect and tried to negotiate an end to the standoff, Carlson said. The other adults trapped in the house were not able to “come out of their own free will,” she said. Prayers go out to the families and the entire community of Aurora. Image via 9News Denver

Lawsuits: Designer Tory Burch’s Company Is Being Sued By Black, Bi-Sexual Ex-Employee For Racial And Sexual Discrimination!

Posted on January 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Guess we won’t be seeing some of you ladies in those little flats anymore huh? Designer Tory Burch Sued For Racial And Sexual Discrimination According to TMZ reports : A black, bisexual woman has sued her former employer — the company run by high-end fashion designer Tory Burch — claiming her manager and co-workers put a big fat target on her head because of her race and bisexuality. Jessica Jones filed the lawsuit, claiming she worked at the billionaire designer’s flagship store in Bev Hills from July 2011 to July 2012 — and during that time, Jones claims she was called everything from a “disgusting” homosexual to a “n***er.” In the docs, Jones says her manager and co-workers treated her like dirt, telling customers and clients not to work with Jones because she was gay. Jones says her manager referred to Jones’ girlfriend as “that thing that comes to visit her at work.” On her lunch breaks, Jones says her manager would regularly ask if Jones was getting fried chicken. Jones claims she was eventually forced to resign because of the treatment she received. Jones is suing Burch’s company — as well as her manager and others — for unspecified damages. Burch was not accused of wrongdoing herself in the the lawsuit and she is not named as a defendant. This isn’t a good look Tory, you need to do a better job screening some of these folks that you hire to represent your brand. Image via PurseBlog

Posted on January 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

If it’s not true, why is she so mad? Rita Ora has been dealing with rumors that Jay-Z chopped that thang to smithereens for awhile now, but she completely lost her isht on Twitter after a British reality star tried to air her out. Via DailyMail reports : After being accused of cheating by her ex Rob Kardashian, Rita Ora has taken to Twitter to once again defend herself against claims she slept with her mentor Jay-Z. The extramarital accusations were tweeted at the 22-year-old singer by Georgie Shore star Holly Hagan on Wednesday. ‘I’ve been told to say that Rita ora has been ALLEGEDLY bukin jay z! I repeat ALLEDGELY [sic],’ the reality star tweeted. ‘Apparently beyonce is denying claims… But if I gt cheated on I’d also deny it #embarrassing,’ the flame-haired Hagan wrote before deleting her posts. The How We Do singer, who has been on holiday in Dubai, quickly responded in a series of tweets that were also later removed from her feed. ‘I stayed silent on one bulls**t rumour but this one I have to speak,’ she wrote. ‘Neva eva will any1 includin a red head dum z listin attention seekin whore try talk s**t about me& my family holly wateva da f*k ur name is,’ she rebuked. Hagan later hit back, taking pride in her ‘z-list’ status: ‘You are all thick if u think just because someone’s absolutely stunning they won’t get cheated on…Cheryl cole? No relationship is perfect.’ She continued: ‘Oooopsy getting told off don’t shoot the messenger! Of course I’m only a Z-list why would anyone care what I say ‘ ‘I only tweeted what I’d seen of lots of other people, I didn’t call anyone anything, there is no need for death threats though that’s sick.’ Rita was signed to Jay-Z’s label Roc Nation over four years ago when she was just 18 and frequently hung out with the rapper’s wife Beyonce. Does anyone else find this whole thing rather amusing? Talk about much ado about humping. WENN
