1. Day one of Hunter Biden’s federal gun trial is in the books and a jury of 12 men and women of his peers has been selected and seated.
2. Wichita City Council is encouraging neighborhood cleanups. At last night’s meeting they discussed spending money for neighborhood cleanups. Mayor Lily Wu said the idea is to remove illegally dumped larger items such as mattresses and box springs from targeted areas, south Broadway, Hilltop, and Plainview.
3. The buzz and anticipation for “Deadpool and Wolverine” is very real. Because of robust early ticket sales, experts are saying it could be the first Marvel movie to pass the $1B sales mark in 3 years. The last one to do it, was “Avengers Endgame”.
4. A man in Virginia did what local police couldn’t. He busted a construction tool theft ring, one he was a victim of, by hiding apple air tags in some of the power tool. Which lead him and police to recovering almost $5M worth of stolen merchandise, one of the largest cases in that police departments recent history.
5. and a family in Oklahoma has an octopus problem. Cameron Clifford’s son loved octopuses so much that he bought a female one for his son as a pet. That octopus ended up laying 50 eggs, all of which hatched. Dad was able to keep about half of the little critters alive, all in separate tanks scattered around the house, causing damage from spilled water and electrical fires along the way. Seriously, with all the adoptable dogs and cats out there needing good homes, you get your kid an octopus – CLEARLY your child has seen one too many episodes of Spongebob. You should have told him Bikini Bottom wasn’t real.
and THAT’S TRENDING.
