Slim Thug's Valuables Stolen In Apartment Burglary: Report

Yahoo08-04-2025

While Slim Thug was in San Antonio on Monday night (April 7) rallying behind the University of Houston Cougars during the National Championship in San Antonio, thieves were breaking into his H-Town home, KHOU 11 reports.
Authorities confirmed a break-in at the Catalyst high-rise apartments around 11:20 p.m. of the same day, with Police sharing belief that the intruders forced their way in sometime between 3:30 P.M. and 11 P.M. According to law enforcement, the building's security noticed a door that had been forced open, and multiple items were reported missing, including jewelry, cash, and other high-value belongings. The address has been linked to the Houston rhymer.
Thankfully, Slim, neé Stayve Jerome Thomas, wasn't at the residence during that time and he has yet to speak out about the incident. According to an update by TMZ, no arrests have been made as police are still investigating the incident.
This disturbing incident follows a growing trend of high-profile figures being targeted while away at public events.
Retired NFL star Richard Sherman recently endured an even more harrowing experience on his birthday when it was interrupted by a terrifying home invasion in Washington. The former Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers star revealed on social media that his home was robbed at gunpoint while his wife, Ashley Moss, and their two children were inside.
'House being robbed at gun point with my family in it isn't what anyone wants for a birthday gift,' he tweeted out on March 31. He called it a 'scary situation that my wife handled masterfully' and praised her for keeping their children safe. In an attempt to identify the suspects, Sherman shared images and video of the break-in—including footage of someone hurling an object at his security camera, which he later revealed was a phone the thieves had taken.

According to Sherman, police told him the group had hit at least five homes, and an active investigation remains underway.

What We Know About the Austria School Shooting

At least nine people were killed on Tuesday in a mass shooting at a high school in Graz, Austria, the city's mayor said. The assailant was also found dead, the police said. The mass shooting is the deadliest attack in recent Austrian history and one of the deadliest recent school shootings across Europe. What happened? Students and at least one adult were killed, Mayor Elke Kahr of Graz said in comments to the Austria Press Agency, the national news agency. The shooter, who police said acted alone, died at the scene, Ms. Kahr said. Police said they received reports of a shooting around 10 a.m. local time on Tuesday and responded with heavy force. Specially trained COBRA units, Austria's version of SWAT teams, arrived at the scene, as did a police helicopter. The school was evacuated in the late morning, with students sent to a nearby stadium. By noon, police said that there was no further threat. Austrian schools were closed on Monday for the Pentecost holiday, so students had just returned to classes after the long weekend. What's known about the suspect and the victims? Austrian officials have not yet identified any of the victims. They have also not released any details about the shooter or a possible motive. How rare are mass shootings in Austria? There were two mass shootings in Austria between 2000 and 2022, both since 2010, according to an analysis published in 2024 by the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government, a think tank based in Albany, N.Y. During that period, there were 109 mass shootings in the United States, according to the institute's records. Graz, Austria's second-largest city after the capital, Vienna, last experienced a mass attack in 2015. In that incident, a man with a history of domestic violence killed three people after driving a car into crowds and then attacking bystanders with a knife. Austria has also had terrorism-related violence in the past few years. In 2024, security officials thwarted a plot to attack people at a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna. In 2020, a gunman killed four people and wounded 23 others in Vienna. The man had previously been arrested on suspicion of trying to join ISIS. Are guns common in Austria? Austrian civilians are among the most heavily armed in the world, according to a 2017 estimate from the Small Arms Survey, a research group based in Geneva. Austrians hold about 2.6 million guns, only about 837,000 of which are registered, according to the survey. Austria ranked 12th in the world in gun holdings per person. That's about 30 firearms for every 100 civilians. The United States had about 120.5 guns for every 100 people during that same time, the survey showed. Pump-action shotguns are prohibited in Austria, which has a population of 9.2 million. Official authorization is required to legally acquire a handgun, a semiautomatic firearm or a repeating shotgun.

Kenyan blogger was hit and assaulted to death, autopsy reveals

A Kenyan blogger who died in police custody was hit on the head and his death was likely to have been caused by assault, a post-mortem has revealed. This contradicts police claims that Albert Ojwang "sustained head injuries after hitting his head against a cell wall". His death has sparked widespread outrage in Kenya, with rights groups demanding that police be held accountable. Mr Ojwang, 31, was detained following a complaint by the deputy police chief, who accused him of tarnishing his name on social media. "The cause of death is very clear; head injury, neck compression and other injuries spread all over the body that are pointing towards assault," state pathologist Bernard Midia said. Police have not yet commented on the findings. Mr Ojwang was arrested in Homa Bay, a town in western Kenya, on Friday, over a post on X that was allegedly critical of Deputy Inspector General of Police Eliud Lagat. He was subsequently transferred over 350km (220 miles) to the capital, Nairobi, and booked into the Central Police Station on Saturday. Police said he was later found unconscious in his cell with self-inflicted injuries. But an autopsy, conducted by five pathologists who released a unanimous report, revealed that Mr Ojwang had severe head injuries and suffered neck compression and multiple soft tissue trauma. Dr Midia, who led the team of pathologists, said that Mr Ojwang did not hit himself on the wall, as police had said in a statement on Sunday. He said if Mr Ojwang had done this, the pattern of injuries would have been different, and frontal bleeding on the head would be seen. "But the bleeds that we found on the scalp… on the skin of the head were spaced, including on the face, sides of the head and the back of the head," Dr Midia said at a press conference. "There were also multiple soft tissue injuries spread all over the body, including the head, neck, upper limbs and the trunk and lower limbs... these were injuries that were externally inflicted," he added. The injuries were consistent with "external assault" and there were also signs of a struggle, according to pathologists. Faith Odhiambo, president of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), said the autopsy report clearly showed that Mr Ojwang had been "tortured" and "brutally murdered" in police custody. "We will continue to pile pressure until every single officer involved is held personally liable. We won't accept more excuses," Ms Odhiambo said. Veteran opposition leader Raila Odinga has condemned Mr Ojwang's "horrifying" death, saying it added to a long list of "young and defenceless Kenyans whose lives have been taken too soon, in brutal and senseless circumstances, at the hands of the police". Inspector-General of Police Douglas Kanja earlier suspended several officers who were on duty at the time of Mr Ojwang's death. But human rights groups have demanded for more action, terming the blogger's death as a possible attempt to silence the digital community through intimidation and fear. A crowd of activists, holding placards and chanting "Stop killing us", protested on Monday outside Nairobi City mortuary, where Mr Ojwang's body is being kept. Kenya's Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) has launched an inquiry into his death.

Homes and Shops Burn in Northern Ireland in Riot Over Sexual Assault Case

The police in Northern Ireland have condemned an outbreak of disorder in the town of Ballymena on Monday night in which 15 officers were injured and houses and shops were set on fire. Officers came under 'sustained attack' for several hours, according to the Police Service of Northern Ireland, which said in a statement that rioters, many of whom were masked, had thrown petrol bombs, fireworks, heavy masonry and bricks at the police. The statement added that attacks on several houses and businesses, in which some had windows and doors smashed and others were set on fire, were being investigated as racially motivated hate attacks. Three people were evacuated from four homes that were set alight, and some of the 15 officers who were injured required hospital treatment. The violence followed the appearance in court earlier on Monday of two 14-year-old boys who had been charged with serious sexual assault of a teenage girl on Saturday night. Both boys have been charged with attempted oral rape and deny the charges, the BBC reported, adding that they had confirmed their names and ages through a Romanian interpreter. A planned demonstration in Ballymena over the case began at about 7:30 p.m. on Monday. Crowds of people made their way through the town and toward the scene of the alleged assault, Clonavon Terrace. The police said that the procession was 'initially peaceful' and officers were present because of the large number of people who had gathered. But later a number of masked individuals broke away and began to build barricades, stockpiling missiles and attacking properties, the police added. Far-right groups and influencers on social media had amplified news of the assault case and celebrated the violence. Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson said: 'The shocking scenes of disorder on the streets of Ballymena have to be condemned in the strongest terms.' 'I would strongly urge anyone who was involved in yesterday's rioting and disorder to think long and hard about their actions,' he added. 'Violence and disorder will only place people at greater risk.' A 29-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of riotous and disorderly behavior and other offenses. The police said they were also investigating reports of a petrol bomb attack in the village of Cullybackey, around three miles away, shortly after midnight on Tuesday. A vehicle was set on fire and a nearby property, with a woman and two children inside, was damaged, in what investigators are treating as a racially motivated hate crime.
