Delta flight from Chicago to Minneapolis returns to O'Hare to remove "unruly passenger"
Delta Flight 1902 was traveling from O'Hare to Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport on Wednesday. The Airbus A220 was forced to turn around because of a passenger's unruly behavior in order to have the passenger removed.
Delta did not release any further details about what kind of behavior the passenger was exhibiting, but did release a statement saying, "Delta has zero tolerance for unruly behavior and will always work with law enforcement to that end. We apologize to our customers for the delay in their travel as safety and security comes before everything else at Delta."
CBS News Chicago has reached out to the Chicago Police Department to find out if the passenger is facing any charges related to the disruption.

New road camera trial on Aussie roads called out over missing detail: 'Outrageous'
Authorities around the country are working hard to make road safety a top priority as death tolls and crashes continue to rise. But a recent move to trial new cameras in Victoria has raised eyebrows among traffic insiders. The Department of Justice and Community Safety confirmed to Yahoo News a new type of "mobile road safety trailer camera" is being trialled along the road network in several suburbs, but has not said what is new about the technology, or what traffic offences they are monitoring for. It is understood that the cameras do not rely on artificial intelligence for enforcement purposes, and while the trial is in place, the cameras will not issue fines. Victorian authorities have set ambitious goals to halve road deaths by 2030, and eliminate deaths entirely by 2050, but the recent announcement has left one leading lawyer wondering why authorities won't say what the cameras are for. "It's outrageous how vague the information is," leading Melbourne traffic lawyer Hayder Shkara told Yahoo News of the announcement. "We don't know which cameras are being used in the trial. We don't know what they are monitoring. We don't know what they are looking for," he said. Shkara argued that the lack of information is "a problem for transparency and trust. I'm a big believer in road safety, but this sounds like a very scary step in police monitoring," he said. What do we know about the mobile camera trial in Victoria? A spokesperson for the Department of Justice told Yahoo News it is trialling the new mobile road safety trailer camera in seven suburbs across the state. Yahoo understands the purpose of the trial is to gather data and ensure that the technology is accurate, safe and operationally effective. After the trial, the department may consider integrating them into the mobile camera program and used for enforcement purposes, although its not clear what the cameras monitor, or how. 'Victoria's road safety camera program plays a critical role in changing driver behaviour, reducing serious injuries and saving lives," the spokesperson said. 'That's why we're continuing to explore new locations and trial new equipment across the road network, to prevent crashes and deaths on our roads.' 'Every dollar received from road safety cameras goes to the Better Roads Victoria Trust, where it is spent on road restoration, road surface replacement, bridge strengthening and other road safety infrastructure improvements.' On its website, the Department states that it regularly trials new technology, and drivers may notice some trials, while others will go unnoticed because they are simply software changes on existing cameras. It's not the first time Melbourne drivers have been left baffled by unknown monitoring technology, with road users left scratching their heads after spotting a futuristic-looking device late last year. Yahoo News was told at the time the peculiar surveillance device is marketed as an "enforcement trailer" made by a company called Vitrionic. According to the company's website, the machines provide "flexible traffic enforcement at accident hotspots and remote hard-to-see measuring points". 🎥 Vandalised surveillance camera on Aussie road goes viral – but here's the truth 📸 Drivers stumped by bizarre roadside surveillance camera spotted on Aussie road 🚘 Detail overlooked in nationwide rollout of mobile and seatbelt detection cameras RACV 'sought more information' about mobile camera trial Even RACV's Head of Policy James Williams told Yahoo the company is seeking more information about the trial. "RACV supports technology-based solutions and initiatives from State Government that make our streets safer and reduce fatalities and serious injuries on our roads," Williams said. "There is clear evidence that the use of road safety cameras reduces injury crashes and improves driver behaviour. "RACV has sought more information about the trial from the Victorian Government. "Road enforcement activities and locations should always be based on safety outcomes, not revenue raising," he said. Where are new mobile road safety trailer cameras being trialled? From 21 July 2025 through to 2026, DJCS will be trialling new mobile road safety trailer technology in the following suburbs: Tottenham Port Melbourne Toorak Caulfield South Heatherton Healesville Oaklands Junction During the trial, the cameras will not issue fines, but police will continue patrolling and enforce dangerous and risky road user behaviours. Yahoo News Australia has contacted SERCO, which operates and maintains traffic cameras in Victoria, for further information about the trial, but did not get a response by time of publication.

1 Killed in Shooting at University of New Mexico Dorm Building, Suspect in Custody
Students were allowed to return to their dorms, but police remain at the scene A suspect is reportedly in custody after a shooting at the University of New Mexico left one person dead and another injured. On Friday, July 25, UNM informed students that the Albuquerque school was still part of 'an active crime scene on the central corridor of the central campus' following a shelter-in-place issued earlier in the day. 'Evacuation is not mandatory. Dorm students will be able to eat in La Posada and return to their dorm rooms. Please avoid the crime scene shown in the attached image and follow the directions of officers on scene,' the college said in a final emergency update shared to their website at 4:14 p.m. local time. U.S. Marshals in Los Lunas arrested the suspect that afternoon, KOB 4 reported. Neither the suspect nor the two victims were identified. The UNM Police Department responded to a report of gunshots at the Casas del Rio student housing complex that morning, according to the outlet. The shooting took place around 3:00 a.m. local time Friday morning, KRQE added, citing a Lobo Alert. However, students in the Gila building said they heard about 'four or five shots' just before midnight and sheltered in place, KOB 4 reported. The UNM Police Department did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment. 'I just heard like three pops, three loud pops, and then, uh, we thought it was like gunshots or something, so then we checked out the window and then, like, we just seen like random people running around,' Jubilee Tasi, a freshman from Seattle told KRQE. 'We heard another popping, and then after that, we were just confused on what was going on, so we just called it a night, and then I went to sleep.' The student said they'd been watching a movie with friends at the time of the shooting, and also said they hadn't witnessed any other disturbances since moving in on June 13. 'What happened last night is just crazy, cause I mean, I'm still trying to get used to the environment over here, so for that to happen it's just kinda crazy,' Tasi said. President Garnett Stokes shared a message to the school's social media channels saying 'law enforcement confirmed that multiple shots were fired in the early morning in our Casas del Rio student housing.' 'The shooting resulted in the death of one individual and the injury of another, who is currently being cared for at a local hospital. The identities of both the deceased and the injured individual have not yet been released,' Stokes continued in the lengthy post, which was one of several updates.

Maxwell is talking 'about everybody' in meetings with the deputy attorney general.
Revelations could be near at hand in the Jeffrey Epstein saga as Ghislaine Maxwell has been granted limited immunity to speak freely in her meetings with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. Blanche traveled to the Tallahassee, Florida, prison where the convicted accomplice of late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is serving a 20-year sentence, for a nine-hour interview over two days. ABC News first reported on the limited immunity, meaning Maxwell can disclose information without criminally implicating herself. 'She answered questions about everybody,' attorney David Oscar Markus told reporters on Friday evening. The meetings were reportedly initiated by Maxwell herself.
