Soulja Boy arrested on suspected weapons charge during traffic stop

Soulja Boy has been arrested and charged with possession of a firearm during a traffic stop. The rapper, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, was a passenger in the car that was stopped in the Fairfax area of Los Angeles early on Sunday morning, the LAPD said. "A passenger was detained and police arrested DeAndre Cortez Way for being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm," the statement added. Possessing a firearm as a convicted felon is a felony. The 35-year-old was booked into jail in the LAPD's Wilshire Division shortly after 6am. It is not clear if he has since been released. Police did not provide information on what prompted the traffic stop and who else was in the vehicle with Way. Soulja Boy is best known for his 2007 hit Crank That, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks and landed him a nomination for best rap song at the Grammys. The rapper was arrested and charged with a felony in 2014 for carrying a loaded gun during a traffic stop in LA. In April this year, the Chicago hip-hop artist was ordered to pay more than $4m (£3m) in damages to his former assistant after being found liable for sexually assault, as well as physically and emotionally abusing them.

Victims identified in Montana bar massacre as cops escalate urgent manhunt for 'armed and dangerous' gunman

The four people who were shot dead at a Montana bar on Friday have been identified as authorities escalate their search for the 'armed and dangerous' at-large suspect. The victims ranged in age from 59 to 74 and were a female bartender and three male patrons. The four were named by authorities as Daniel Edwin Baillie, 59, Nancy Lauretta Kelley, 64, David Allen Leach, 70, and Tony Wayne Palm, 74. All four lived in Anaconda, the remote Montana town where the shooting unfolded on Friday. Meanwhile, the former soldier suspected of killing four people at a Montana bar is still at large and may be armed after escaping in a stolen vehicle containing clothes and camping gear, officials said. Authorities believe 45-year-old Michael Paul Brown killed the four people at The Owl Bar in Anaconda, Montana, about 75 miles southeast of Missoula in a valley hemmed in by mountains. Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen said during a news conference on Sunday that Brown committed the shooting with a rifle that law enforcement believes was his personal weapon. Knudsen warned residents in the town of just over 9,000 people that Brown, who lived next door to the bar where he was a regular, could come back to the area. 'This is an unstable individual who walked in and murdered four people in cold blood for no reason whatsoever. So there absolutely is concern for the public,' Knudsen said. Robert Wyatt, 70, said he was neighbors with Leach who died. 'Everybody is nervous since Friday', Wyatt said. Leach was deaf and kept mostly to himself, Wyatt said, and he only recalls Leach having a family visit once almost a year ago. But Leach was always happy to help his neighbors with chores like moving furniture. 'If you needed help, Dave would help,' Wyatt said. 'He was a good neighbor.' Numerous public events were canceled over the weekend as the search entered its third day, according to local Facebook pages. As law enforcement scours the wild terrain, the woods southwest of Anaconda have been closed to the public by the National Forest System. David Jabarek, 70, said that a mass shooting in a place as small as Anaconda is baffling to many. He said that he regularly saw both the shooter and the victims over the course of the 20 years that he has lived in Anaconda. 'We only have 9,000 people, so it's like, what the hell just happened? Everybody knows everybody here,' he said. Jabarek was headed to Owl Bar less than 30 minutes before the shooting happened, at around 10:15am. On an impulse, he went to run an errand nearby instead. When he came back to the area, he saw the bar was surrounded by police. 'If I'd have been in there when I was supposed to be, you wouldn't be talking to me. Somebody be talking to you about me,' he said. The close call is now keeping Jabarek up at night but he said that he isn't afraid of the prospect of Brown returning. 'Everybody around here has two dozen firearms in their house, and right now they´re within hands reach,' Jabarek said. Investigators are considering all possible options for Brown's whereabouts, the attorney general said. That includes searching the woods where Brown hunted and camped while he was a kid. But Knudsen noted that during peak tourist season in western Montana some law enforcement officials would have to return to their local jurisdictions for their regular responsibilities. Brown served in the Army as an armor crewman from 2001 to 2005 and deployed to Iraq from early 2004 until March 2005, said Lt. Col. Ruth Castro, an Army spokesperson. Brown was in the Montana National Guard from 2006 to March 2009, Castro said, and left military service at the rank of sergeant. Brown's niece, Clare Boyle, said that her uncle has struggled with mental illness for years, and she and other family members repeatedly sought help. 'This isn't just a drunk/high man going wild,' she said. 'It's a sick man who doesn´t know who he is sometimes and frequently doesn't know where or when he is either.' Knudsen said on Sunday that Brown was known to local law enforcement before the shooting. It was widely believed that he knew at least some of the victims, given how close he lived to the bar. Law enforcement released a photograph of Brown from surveillance footage taken shortly after the fatal shootings. He appeared to be barefoot and in minimal clothing. But law enforcement now believes Brown ditched the vehicle he escaped in and stole a different one that had camping gear, shoes and clothes in it, leaving open the possibility that Brown is now clothed. The last time that law enforcement saw Brown was on Friday afternoon, but there was 'some confusion' because there were multiple white vehicles involved, Knudsen said. There is a $7,500 reward for any information that leads to Brown's capture. 'This is still Montana. Montanans know how to take care of themselves. But please, if you have any sightings, call 911,' Knudsen urged.

Jess Phillips: Nigel Farage putting 'clicks for his monetised social media accounts' over children's safety

Nigel Farage is putting "clicks for his monetised social media accounts" over children's safety, safeguarding minister Jess Phillips has claimed. Ms Phillips accused Reform UK's leader of never worrying "about anything but likes and clicks" and being indifferent towards victims' views on the Online Safety Act, which came into force in July. This comes a week after Mr Farage likened the new rules to "state suppression of genuine free speech", and said his party would ditch the regulations. New rules - which came into effect on 25 July - include introducing age verification for adult websites, and ensuring algorithms do not harm children by exposing them to such content when they are online. Technology Secretary Peter Kyle said that those who wanted to overturn the act were "on the side of predators" like Jimmy Savile - to which Mr Farage demanded an apology, calling Mr Kyle's comments "absolutely disgusting". Mr Kyle has refused to retract or apologise for his statement, and Ms Phillips voiced her agreement with his comments, saying that "stronger safeguards" were needed to protect children. "That's why the Online Safety Act exists - to try to provide that basic minimum of protection and make it harder for paedophiles to prey on children at will. And we can't afford to wait," Ms Phillips wrote in The Times. The minister for safeguarding and violence against women and girls warned that police have uncovered networks of paedophiles who "coerced and blackmailed" children using "normal websites where their parents assume they're safe". She added that children themselves were also committing abuse, with half of recorded child sex offences last year where police know the age of the perpetrator being committed by 10 to 17-year-olds. 5:23 Ms Phillips wrote: "We need to ask, why are so many teenage boys now abusing their fellow children? "Perhaps Nigel Farage doesn't worry about that - there's no political advantage in it, and no clicks for his monetised social media accounts. But I do." A Reform source told The Times in response that Labour was "desperately embarrassing themselves with idiotic statements". The Online Safety Act, which was passed in 2023, requires online platforms such as social media sites and search engines to take steps to prevent children from accessing harmful content such as pornography or material that encourages suicide. Failure to comply with the new rules could incur fines of up to £18m or 10% of a firm's global turnover, whichever is greater.
