TikTok star arrested for $60k damage caused to F1 car
The online star, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, was at the British Grand Prix for the Silverstone Circuit when the seemingly harmless gag turned sour.
Angryginge, along with two other streamers he was at the event with Chazza and SamHam, were arrested after allegedly causing more than $60,000 in criminal damage to a BWT Racing Point F1 Team Car, The Sun reports.
The ordeal unfolded after Chazza sat in the car, and allegedly damaged it while trying to exit the pink display vehicle — leading to the three of them spending 15-hours in detention before being released without charges.
'On Friday, July 4, Northamptonshire Police received a report that a classic Formula 1 car on display at Silverstone Circuit during the British Grand Prix event had sustained several thousands of pounds worth of damage, which was alleged to have been caused by someone accessing the display stand and climbing into the vehicle,' A Northampton Police spokesperson told The Sun.

'Following a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the incident, all three men were released with no further action.'
After their release, Angryginge took to TikTok, sharing a video outside the police station to his two million followers saying, 'Just got out the penn... 15 hours done, free ginge.'

The 23-year-old then uploaded a 28 minute long YouTube video, showing their footage of the events leading up to the arrest and his explanation afterwards.
'We got arrested and then released because we did nothing wrong, no charge — nothing,' he said outside the station.

During a live stream following the incident, the content creator claimed they witnessed people getting in and out of the car which led to their friend following suit.
They continued to film themselves going about their day, but before they could attend a Red Bull event they had been invited to, security pulled them up and they were taken into custody for an overnight stay.
'It was a funny moment until the cell door shut, let me tell you I'm traumatised, genuinely traumatised,' the video creator said.

Lewis Capaldi stunned by tour popularity
Lewis Capaldi "didn't expect" his comeback tour to sell out. The 28-year-old singer made a return to the spotlight at Glastonbury last month and subsequently announced a string of arena shows in the UK and Ireland in September and despite all the tickets being snapped up, including for seven additional dates, he has told fans he won't be adding any more concerts because he needs to look after his health. Sharing a photo of the sold out tour dates, he wrote on Instagram: 'Honestly didn't expect this at all… genuinely had no idea what to expect after taking a break for so long so by seeing this tour sell out faster than any tour i've ever played is the most incredible surreal feeling. 'Thank you to every single one of you who got a ticket and i'm very sorry to any of you who wanted to come and missed out this time. There won't be any other shows for now, want to make sure I don't push myself too far too soon. means more than ya know how many of you were waiting to get tickets this morning x (sic)" Lewis made a triumphant return to Glastonbury last month, two years after he broke down on stage at the festival when vocal tics plagued his singing - a symptom of the neurological disorder Tourette's syndrome. And he later admitted he knew early in his 2023 set that he needed to take time out. He recently told The Sun newspaper: "I think I probably knew two songs into the set at Glastonbury that I couldn't do it. "I was on stage and I was on complete autopilot. In my head I was feeling a thousand miles away and I watched it back and I feel sad. As far as I was concerned, I was done indefinitely. "I didn't take a break to just focus on getting better. I took a break because I needed a break to release the pressure value a little bit." At the time, the Pointless hitmaker announced he needed to spend more time focusing on his "mental and physical health" after his last Glastonbury set. In a lengthy statement shared on social media at the time, he said: "First of all, thank you to Glastonbury for having me, for singing along when I needed it and for all the amazing messages afterwards. It really does mean the world. "The fact that this probably won't come as a surprise doesn't make it any easier to write, but I'm very sorry to let you all know I'm going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future. "I used to be able to enjoy every second of shows like this and I'd hoped 3 weeks away would sort me out. "But the truth is I'm still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette's and on Saturday it become obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order, so I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come."

Social media dating trend points to act women no longer accepting
The dating game can be brutal with trends like ghosting and the emphasis on casual relationships amplified — but finally it seems like the bar for the bare minimum has risen. Women of TikTok have put their partners to the test, asking them a series of statements with the question; 'Is this princess treatment or the bare minimum?' For context, princess treatment is when a partner does something that a reasonable person would consider above and beyond. While, the bare minimum is the standard and what should be expected in a relationship. The most telling thing about the trend is exactly what is deemed to be the bare minimum, as for years it was simply replying to a text message before 10pm. Rosie and Harry, a British content creator couple who moved to Australia, took part in the trend. For every answer Harry got 'wrong', 25-year-old Rosie sprayed her fiance with water. 'Princess treatment or bare minimum — knowing exactly what period products I need from the store without asking me,' Rosie asked. Harry responded that was the bare minimum. Next, he said washing Rosie's hair in the shower for her seemed like 'princess treatment', to which she agreed. However, Harry faltered, according to Rosie, when she asked which category it fell under for him to always give her the last bite of his food at the restaurant every time. He dubbed it princess treatment. He said that Rosie always having access to his phone, not liking other women's photos on social media and offering to take photos of Rosie when they were out were all the bare minimum. But, what does this mean for Australia's dating scene? Nicole Colantoni, eHarmony's relationship expert, said that bare minimum behaviour are things like responding to messages, remembering someone's birthday or asking how your partner's day has been. Meanwhile, she's seen 'Princess Treatment' described as dropping your partner off at work and picking them up every day, driving two suburbs over on a rainy Sunday to pick up a favourite pastry and washing their partner's hair. She said it's a stark reminder that you need to know your partner's expectations and love languages. 'It's a playful yet pointed reminder that things like texting back, remembering your partner's birthday, or making plans in advance aren't 'over the top' — they're just the basics of emotional maturity and care,' she said. 'On the other hand, something like booking a surprise weekend away or tickling your partner to sleep might be considered princess treatment — going that extra mile to really make someone feel special.' She said it was a signal that we are finally seeing a shift towards more intentional and emotionally intelligent dating. Ms Colantoni said people are becoming increasingly conscious of what it takes to create a healthy relationship, and people are no longer solely looking at achieving financial security or social status through dating. So, why are people finally bucking the trend of cool and casual when it comes to dating? 'For one, people are more emotionally aware than ever — we're talking about attachment styles, emotional regulation, love languages, and relationship standards openly on social media,' the relationship expert said. 'There's also this culture of comparison happening, where people are constantly scrolling and comparing their relationships to curated versions of others online, which can blur the lines around what's 'normal' versus what's actually meaningful. I also think the post-pandemic world has sparked a deeper craving for emotional intimacy and effort. People want to feel prioritised, not just partnered.' She said to ask for more, it's important to know what you need — and then express it clearly and kindly. It's also important to have regular check ins. 'The trend is a reminder that while we think we know what our partner needs, we often don't — and that clear communication is essential. It also reflects how our standards and needs evolve, and how a relationship has to adapt with them,' she said. 'Sometimes, we do want a little extra care or surprise effort — whether or not we call it princess treatment. And that's okay. The real message is that intentional effort matters.'

Colombian authorities arrest alleged Italian mafia boss
An alleged leader of the Italian 'Ndrangheta mafia has been captured in Latin America, accused of overseeing cocaine shipments and managing illegal trafficking routes to Europe, Colombian authorities say. Police identified the suspect as Giuseppe Palermo, also known as "Peppe", an Italian who was wanted under an Interpol red notice, which called for his arrest in 196 countries. He was apprehended on the street in Colombia's capital Bogota during a co-ordinated operation between Colombian, Italian and British authorities, as well as Europol, the European Union's law enforcement agency, according to an official report. Palermo is believed to be part of "one of the most tightly knit cells" of the 'Ndrangheta mafia, said Carlos Fernando Triana, head of the Colombian police, in a message posted on X. The 'Ndrangheta, one of Italy's most powerful and secretive criminal organisations, has extended its influence abroad and is widely accused of importing cocaine into Europe. The suspect "not only led the purchase of large shipments of cocaine in Colombia, Peru, and Ecuador, but also controlled the maritime and land routes used to transport the drugs to European markets", Triana said. Illegal cocaine production reached 3708 tons in 2023, an increase of almost 34 per cent from the previous year, driven mainly by the expansion of coca leaf cultivation in Colombia, according to the United Nations.
