Tremonton shooter used high-powered rifle to kill officers, police say
TREMONTON, Utah (ABC4) — The alleged shooter in an incident that left two officers dead and another injured in Tremonton on Sunday used a high-powered rifle in the killings, court documents state. The suspect, identified as Ryan Bate, 32, has been arrested on two counts of aggravated murder (capital murder), attempted aggravated murder (first-degree felony), and assault (class-B misdemeanor). Just before 9:20 p.m. on Aug. 17, Tremonton police officers responded to a domestic violence call on the 700 North block of 200 East in Tremonton. Upon arrival, Bate, who was armed with a high-powered rifle, opened fire on two officers. Both officers died as a result of their injuries. A Box Elder County deputy responded to a call for backup and was shot while inside his vehicle, sustaining serious but non-life-threatening injuries. His police service K-9, who was located in the rear compartment of the vehicle, was also shot and sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries. While details are limited, Bate was later apprehended by police. At his home, investigators recovered a high-powered rifle and spent shell casings. Bate has a history of domestic violence, according to court documents, and was arrested on May 8, 2024, due to a domestic violence incident. Charges are allegations only. All arrested persons are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

Youth conference attendees donate snacks, funds to local Boys & Girls Club
As the children and teenagers placed peanut butter crackers, Kraft Mac & Cheese cups, tuna salad snack packs and granola bars in plastic bags, they thought about the tasty treats that would satisfy hunger pangs on a late afternoon. The young people didn't fill the bags full of food for themselves. Instead, the meal kits were destined for youths at the Boys & Girls Club of Oklahoma County. About 450 young people attending the 2025 National Youth Conference (NYC) of the Churches of Christ in July filled 2,000 bags of snacks during the conference held at Oklahoma Christian University. Shay Cathey, of Dallas, one of the conference directors serving as community service coordinator, said the donation of the snack bags was this year's service project for the young conference attendees. "These kids have food at their fingertips — they are able to get DoorDash, they can Uber Eats or go pick up whatever they want, so I don't think they understand that someone in their school or their church doesn't know where their next meal is coming from," she said. "The idea that someone may need to eat this granola bar to stop the hunger pangs is something that most of our kids don't understand or relate to and so we want them to empathize with the need that they probably don't have but that someone else has."

For him, it's his faith coming full circle Ramon Hodridge, one of the conference's directors and a minister at Lawrence and Marder Church of Christ in Dallas, Texas, said conference attendees raised almost $5,000 to purchase snacks to fill the bags. He said the young people donated from as little as less than a dollar up to $200 to come up with all but about $500 of the funds raised. The minister said adult advisors donated about $500 for the snack bags destined for youths at the Boys & Girls Club-Northeast center at 3806 N Prospect. "We're letting the youth touch every bag so this is about a youth helping another youth," Hodridge said. Mason Holt, 14, a member of Cedar Valley Church of Christ in Dallas, said it was his second time attending the longtime conference. He said his parents had attended the conference when they were teenagers and he was happy to follow in their footsteps. "It's a great conference ― it's very lit," Holt said. "We're learning more about the Lord." Hodridge said most of the conference attendees were between the ages of 13 and 18, but there were children between the ages of 6 and 12 who were in attendance, as well. "Standing on Business," based on Ephesians 6: 10-17, was the theme of the conference held in July. Attendees represented 51 congregations from 15 states including Oklahoma, Texas, California, Ohio, Tennessee and Louisiana. In addition to the community service project, Hodridge said the conference included sports competitions and workshops. Some attendees planned to travel to Tulsa to visit Black Wall Street and the Greenwood Rising Museum. Gary Jones, minister of Eastside Church of Christ, said Frito-Lay donated 2,000 bags of chips for conference attendees to add to the snack bags and the sustainable plant-based bags were from Utopia Plastix. Sharina Perry, the Oklahoma-based company's founder, discussed her entrepreneur's journey at the conference before attendees were given Utopia Plastix bags to fill assembly-line style. Adults cheered and chanted words of encouragement as the young people filled bags with food. A. Jaye Johnson, Boys & Girls Club of Oklahoma County vice president of community outreach, safety, transportation and facilities, was on hand to receive the snack bags and a $1,000 donation from conference attendees. "For me, it's things like this that show that people care," Johnson said. "It's just a privilege to work with different groups who want to help young people in our community." Cathey said the conference's community service projects in previous years included building a house in partnership with Habitat for Humanity. She said another year, the group donated more than $1,000 to the Greater Memphis Boys & Girls Club when the conference was held in Tennessee. And, Cathey said conference participants met in Oklahoma City in 2014 and they held a school supply drive for Oklahoma National Guard families.

'AND THE VENT WAS CLOSED:' Woman Gets into Boyfriend's Tacoma. Then She Sees the Strategically Placed Strand of Hair
Was it a stroke of luck? A sign from above? Or just a content creator messing with us? In a recent TikTok, Laci Johnson ( @laci_johnson ) filmed what looked like a strand of blonde hair drifting out of the front side vent of her boyfriend's Toyota Tacoma. 'Late night finds, but it's his truck putting a strand of girl's hair DIRECTLY in my face as soon as I get in,' she said. 'What a real one.' Stay informed with our newsletter every weekday back Sign up For more information, read our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use . Johnson later revealed the whole thing was staged—the hair was hers, not evidence of some mystery woman—but that didn't stop commenters from swapping their own stories of discovering a partner's cheating through similarly bizarre clues. By Thursday, the video had garnered over 1.6 million views. Did Her Boyfriend Cheat? Probably not. In her first clip, Johnson implies the hair came from someone else—likely another woman her boyfriend was secretly seeing. She even refers to the mystery woman as 'a girl's girl.' Maybe she did suspect it at first. But in a follow-up video , Johnson clarifies the hair was her own. How she figured that out—or why she's certain it wasn't from someone else—remains unclear. 'When I make a video about finding a hair in my bf's truck and it gets a million views, but the hair was mine,' she says.

Her Negotiation Skills Stop Salesman in His Tracks Still, spotting another woman's hair in your boyfriend's car can be a gut punch—something Johnson and plenty of commenters admitted. As Johnson put it, her 'crashout' was 'valid.' Do People Leave Tokens Behind to Expose Cheaters? If someone wants to reveal an affair, they might leave something behind that's impossible to miss. It could be a pair of underwear that doesn't belong to the spouse, tucked away somewhere it's likely to be found, such as the laundry or a drawer. Sometimes it's a note or letter that explains the situation directly, eliminating any uncertainty. Other times, it's smaller, like a hair tie (or a strand of hair), a piece of jewelry, or a stray item of clothing, just enough to prompt someone to start asking questions. On Reddit, one woman in the infidelity subreddit described sleeping with someone whom she later learned was married, and she asked commenters how she should discreetly inform the spouse. The answers ranged from leaving pads and tampons in their shared bathroom to posting a photo of herself with the other person online—and tagging the spouse. A large swath of commenters, though, advised against leaving these so-called tokens and, instead, said it's better to just confront the woman directly. If she's to go this route, though, Redditors recommended providing the affected woman with irrefutable proof, such as a picture of her at their house. Of course, not everyone involved in an affair will leave a token behind. But even if they don't, other signs may still emerge. According to Choose Therapy , many affairs are discovered in different ways, such as unusual behavior, increased stress, privacy around phones, decreased intimacy, or unexplained absences. Not everyone leaves evidence intentionally. When it does occur, the outcome can be challenging for everyone involved. Viewers React Before realizing the hair in Johnson's boyfriend's car was her own, some commenters insisted she was 'protected' and needed to leave him immediately. 'That's a sign literally,' one said. 'AND THE VENT WAS CLOSED,' added a second. 'You are divinely protected,' a third chimed in. 'That's the universe saying, 'Hey girl, we need to talk,'' a fourth TikTok user quipped. While Johnson doesn't appear to be ending the relationship—especially if there was no cheating—others still joked that it was a red flag for any man to drive a Tacoma and claimed she could do better. 'He drove a Tacoma girl, no loss there,' one woman said. 'He drives a Tacoma, you should have known from the start,' wrote another. 'Girl, he's driving a Tacoma,' a third added. 'Run.'
