Surveillance video from the car wash's security camera does not include audio but appears to show that Sibley was vacuuming his car, a maroon Dodge Challenger, at about 10:40 a.m. when two men approached him and began chasing him and shooting.
Sibley ran across the lot, behind some other cars parked in the car wash bays and behind a dumpster while trying to evade the gunmen, the footage shows. The video ends after he is apparently shot and stumbles and collapses in the parking lot.
R'mani Sibley, an elementary school student in Crowley, was found inside her father's car.

In total, Sibley released 13 albums over his career, with his final record 'Literally' released in 2023. Here's a look at each album:

Taylor Swift Podcast Interview: A Glimpse Into Late-Night TV's Future?
When Conan O'Brien was inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame this weekend, he delivered what sounded, at least from a certain perspective, like an obituary for late-night TV. 'Late night television as we have known it since around 1950 is going to disappear,' O'Brien said during his acceptance remarks, 'but those voices are not going anywhere. People like Stephen Colbert are too talented and too essential to go away.' He went on to predict that those voices will start showing up elsewhere — and it's hard not to feel like we got a taste of what that 'elsewhere' might look like a few days ago, when Taylor Swift revealed the cover art and October release date of her next album, The Life of a Showgirl. Because she didn't break the news on The Tonight Show or in a glossy magazine spread. Instead, she did it on New Heights, the podcast hosted by her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason. Over the course of two hours, Swift opened up about her upcoming album, her relationship with Kelce, and the marathon that was her 21-month Eras Tour. For someone who's long let her lyrics do the talking, it was one of her most personal conversations in years. And it happened not in a late night TV studio with a house band and a live audience, but in the relaxed environment of a podcast. Taylor Swift's podcast interview, and what it means A format, by the way, that's already been talked up as the future – or, rather, a kind of replacement – for the late-night TV ecosystem of softball interviews and conversations with celebrities who have a release of some sort to peddle. 'Networks will start airing podcasts as late night shows,' one user predicted in a recent X post. Not sure I'd go that far, especially given that the most successful podcasts tend to run much, much longer than a half-hour episode of TV. But it's hard to disagree with the larger point there. For celebrities, meanwhile, the appeal is obvious; podcasts provide a safe space where they can open up without feeling rushed. It's no coincidence that stars like Marc Maron and Theo Von became cultural fixtures by giving big names a comfortable platform. Taylor Swift's New Heights appearance followed that same script. The economics also back up the cultural shift here. As The Wrap recently reported, the biggest paydays in talk today aren't even on TV. Joe Rogan signed a $250 million Spotify deal, Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy went to SiriusXM for $125 million, O'Brien signed a $150 million podcast deal, and the Kelce brothers themselves landed a $100 million deal with Amazon's Wondery. Meanwhile, podcast listening in the U.S. has exploded 355% since 2015 (according to Edison Research), now reaching an average of 773 million hours per week. As The New York Times noted about Swift's interview on the New Heights podcast (which, by the way, tends to focus on football and pop culture), it racked up almost 9 million views in its first 12 hours of availability on YouTube – compared to around 11 million views that Joe Rogan's October interview with President Trump likewise amassed in its first 12 hours on YouTube. As of this writing, the Swift interview is sitting at 18 million views on YouTube alone. O'Brien himself is a perfect embodiment of this new reality. Amplifi Media notes that his Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend podcast gets around 1.3 million downloads per episode – a big improvement over the 282,000 viewers the final episode of his TV show got back in 2021. And his podcast is drawing major guests, just like he did on TV back in the day (recent episodes have featured Bob Odenkirk, Timothy Olyphant, and Andy Samberg). The bottom line: Everyone is still gaming out what the future holds for late-night TV — with the prevailing assumption being that the current crop of hosts will be the last ones to helm the big network shows. But Swift's decision to sit down for a podcast interview, instead of a traditional talk show appearance, is a reminder that the format isn't disappearing so much as shifting to someplace different. The big stage and late-night desk may fade away, but the appetite for celebrity conversations and big cultural moments most certainly has not.

Seven killed in latest Ecuador pool hall shooting
Gunmen shot dead at least seven people at a pool hall in the Ecuadoran city of Santo Domingo, police said Sunday, in the country's latest gruesome massacre amid soaring gang violence. "Seven people died from gunshot wounds" at a pool hall in the nightlife district of Santo Domingo, about 150 kilometers (93 miles) west of the capital Quito, national police said in a WhatsApp group with reporters. Police said they were investigating the incident and hunting for those responsible. Purported security camera footage of the massacre circulating online showed several attackers wearing black masks open fire on two men standing at the entrance to the pool hall, sending pedestrians scrambling. The gunmen then entered the hall and continued shooting, fleeing before a police vehicle approached. AFP has not yet independently verified the footage. According to local media, preliminary investigations indicated that the killings may be related to organized crime in the region. A similar pool hall massacre took place last month in the southwestern tourist city of General Villamil Playas, leaving at least nine dead. And in April, armed men killed 12 people at a cockfighting ring around 30 kilometers from Santo Domingo. Once considered a bastion of peace in Latin America, Ecuador has been plunged into crisis after years of expansion by transnational cartels that use its ports to ship drugs to the United States and Europe. Drug trafficking organizations have been multiplying in Ecuador, where the homicide rate rose from six per 100,000 residents in 2018 to 38 per 100,000 in 2024. Between January and May, there were more than 4,051 homicides, according to official figures. Analysts say it is the most violent start to a year in the country's recent history. President Daniel Noboa's government has promised to crack down on crime, but despite widespread operations and constant states of emergency, there has been little reduction in the violence. Last weekend alone, 14 people were killed in massacres in the troubled province of Guayas, one of four provinces where Noboa recently declared a state of emergency to combat gang violence. Gangs vying for control of drug trafficking routes in Ecuador have taken advantage of the country's strategic location, its US-dollar-based economy, and the corruption of some authorities. According to official figures, 73 percent of the world's cocaine production passes through Ecuadorian ports. In 2024, the country seized a record 294 tons of drugs, mainly cocaine, compared to 221 tons in 2023. bur-des-aha/st
