NYC woman found a phone buried in her lawn — and police say it's a new tactic thieves use to spy on homeowners
Moneywise and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue through links in the content below. A Queens woman found what looked like a phone buried in her front lawn — but it wasn't just lost property. Mary Kehoe, who's lived in her Forest Hills home for 35 years, spotted the strange device outside. It looked like an Android phone wrapped in black tape, with only the camera exposed — like it was made to watch, not call. Don't miss Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 6 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Want an extra $1,300,000 when you retire? Dave Ramsey says this 7-step plan 'works every single time' to kill debt, get rich in America — and that 'anyone' can do it 'Why us? I had lots of things going through my head as to why they chose our lawn but realized we are in the middle of the block,' Kehoe told CBS. Experts warn that these kinds of planted devices may be part of a growing tactic used by burglars to spy on homeowners, tracking their daily routines or scouting for valuables. And it's not just an isolated case, similar incidents have popped up across the Tri-State Area. Here's how to identify these devices and what to do if one shows up in your yard. Not just paranoia Discovering a hidden device on your lawn isn't just unsettling — it's a serious breach of privacy. Unfortunately, it's happening more often. Police say covert surveillance cases like this are turning up across the country. And the tools being used aren't high-tech spy gadgets. 'It could be any type of camera that is digital and wireless. It could be cheap; it could be expensive,' Sergeant Vahe Abramyan of the Glendale Police Department told the Los Angeles Times. 'You can go on Amazon or go to Best Buy to get one.' That's exactly what happened in Garden Grove, where a resident discovered a camera hidden in a neighbor's bush — aimed directly at her home. According to KTLA, the neighbor initially thought it was trash, but inside the bag was a camera and battery pack. Staying safe With these surveillance tactics on the rise, there are steps you can take to protect yourself and your neighborhood. 'Put your alarms on, put lights on, and be aware. And we're a nice little block here that we look out for one another, so when people do go away, they let us know so we can take a walk down their driveway and make sure everything is safe,' Kehoe said. Police recommend trimming hedges to eliminate hiding spots, installing motion-detecting lights and staying alert for camouflaged devices that could be stashed in your yard.

Hassle-free property ownership For homeowners, the threat of a break-in is just one of the many challenges these days. From soaring mortgage and insurance rates to worsening climate disasters, the list is long. And those who purchase properties to generate rental income have to deal with the added headaches of managing tenants. The average American spends roughly $21,400 per year just to maintain a single-family home in 2025, while the median monthly mortgage payment is $2,259, according to data published by Bankrate. And the costs might rise further if the tariffs go into effect in full swing. President Trump's 35.19% duties on Canadian softwood lumber could push the hidden costs of homeownership up. If you are looking to purchase property to convert it into a rental, you could face up to 25% higher insurance as a landlord, according to the Insurance Information Institute. But there's an easier way to own real estate without worrying about the day-to-day challenges. If you have the capital on hand, you can venture into commercial real estate by owning shares of grocery-anchored properties across the country through First National Realty Partners (FNRP). FNRP leases its commercial properties to national brands like Whole Foods, CVS, and Walmart — stores that provide essential goods to their community. The firm has a triple lease structure, which means you can invest in these properties without worrying about tenant costs cutting into potential returns. The best part? FNRP manages every component of the investment life cycle — allowing accredited investors to become landlords without taking on any additional work. FNRP distributes any positive cash flow generated from the properties you invest in through quarterly cash distributions. While investing in commercial real estate might be lucrative, it comes with its own set of challenges. If you want to limit your risk exposure, consider tapping into the $34.9 trillion home equity market with Homeshares U.S. Home Equity Fund. With a minimum investment of $25,000, you can gain direct exposure to hundreds of owner-occupied homes across top U.S. cities — all without the headaches of buying, owning, or managing property. The fund invests in residential real estate markets across the country, offering nationwide diversification. Plus, its built-in 45% downside protection feature further limits risk exposure. With risk-adjusted target returns ranging from 14% to 17%, this approach provides an effective, hands-off way to invest in owner-occupied residential properties across regional markets. If you don't have tens of thousands of dollars to invest in real estate at the moment, you don't have to miss out. Thanks to crowdfunding platforms like Arrived, you can get started with as little as $100. Backed by world-class investors like Jeff Bezos, Arrived lets you access shares of SEC-qualified investments in rental homes and vacation rentals. These properties go through an extensive vetting process, with fewer than 0.2% of reviewed properties meeting their standards. Plus, you can earn returns in two ways: any rental income generated from each property is paid out through monthly dividends, and any property appreciation is paid out at the end of the investment hold period.

Abandoned puppy found in Mass. euthanized, police investigate as animal cruelty
Police have been investigating an animal cruelty case in which two puppies were found abandoned in Randolph earlier this month, according to police. One of the puppies was in such bad condition that veterinarians decided to euthanize it. On the evening of Aug. 1, a passerby found two puppies abandoned along a walkway between the Martin E. Young Elementary School on Lou Courtney Drive and Barbara Road, Randolph police said in a press release. The passerby quickly notified police, and the puppies — a male and female around 11 weeks old — were immediately taken to VCA Weymouth. 'Unfortunately, shortly after arrival, it was determined that due to the extent of the condition of the male puppy, the most compassionate recourse was to provide him with a peaceful passing,' police wrote. Randolph police are now asking the public to help them identify 'the individual(s) responsible for dumping these helpless dogs,' the police department wrote. Investigators believe the suspects are likely basement breeders who live in Randolph or a neighboring community. The puppies are of mixed breed — possibly some sort of shepherd or hound mix — and have 'a distinct black tail,' police said. The female puppy is not currently up for adoption. Randolph police are asking anyone who thinks they may have seen suspicious activity in the area on or around Aug. 1 or who knows of home breeders in the area that breed similar dogs to contact them. Those with information about the case are asked to call Detective Kevin Aldred at 781-963-1212, police said. Alternatively, you can submit an anonymous tip by texting 'Randolph' to 847411 or by downloading the Randolph Police Department application onto your Apple or Android phone. No further information about the case has been released.

ICE To Buy Eye-Scanning Tech That Could Identify Migrants in Seconds
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) plans to use eye-scanning biometric systems, according to new documents. Procurement documents published on Wednesday show that the agency is seeking to buy access to a service called IRIS, which describes itself as a "national, web-based iris biometric network." Newsweek contacted ICE outside normal working hours for more information via email. Why It Matters President Donald Trump's administration has intensified efforts to remove undocumented migrants, in keeping with the president's hard-line mass deportation policy. The White House has maintained that anyone residing in the United States illegally is a criminal. ICE has faced intense scrutiny over its conduct, becoming a focal point in the national immigration debate. The documents reflect federal agencies' increasing reliance on sophisticated biometric systems to verify identities in the field, with the technologies offering rapid verification capabilities to support enforcement and removal operations. What To Know Newly released procurement documents showed that ICE was in the process of acquiring mobile iris-scanning devices from BI2 Technologies, a tech firm in Massachusetts. Its flagship products—the Mobile Offender Recognition and Information System (MORIS) and the Inmate Identification and Recognition System (IRIS)—are intended to help ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations unit verify the identities of individuals in custody and those encountered during enforcement actions. According to manufacturer materials, the technology allows officers to authenticate identities within seconds and access criminal justice records from multiple jurisdictions once a person is enrolled in a national biometric database. According to BI2, MORIS is compatible with iOS and Android smartphones. Federal agents block people protesting an ICE immigration raid at a licensed cannabis farm near Camarillo, California, on July 10.

Getty Images Once a subject's iris data is scanned, the technology cross-references more than 265 unique iris characteristics against central registries, such as the Sex Offender Registry, Child Project and Senior Safety Net, 404 Media reported. According to BI2, its systems can be used by law enforcement agencies across the U.S. This marks ICE's first recorded federal contract with BI2 Technologies. Previously, ICE used biometric tools such as the "Mobile Fortify" facial recognition app, which lets agents compare images and fingerprints against Department of Homeland Security databases. Another tool, EDDIE, allows officers to capture and process fingerprints in less than a minute in the field. What People Are Saying BI2 Technologies said on its website: "BI2 Technologies and the nation's sheriffs have created what no other organization in the world—public or private—have been able to accomplish: the implementation of the nation's only secure, encrypted, real-time national criminal justice data sharing network, based on iris recognition technology, which enables law enforcement agencies across the country to positively identify individuals in seconds from virtually anywhere. "The Inmate Identification and Recognition System (I.R.I.S.) positively identifies offenders using the most anatomically unique biometric—the iris. Sheriff's Offices and correctional facilities have been utilizing iris biometric recognition technology for essential responsibilities, such as arrest, inmate intake and booking, inmate release, and authentication of an individual." What Happens Next The specific timeline for deployment of ICE's new mobile iris scanning tools has not been publicly disclosed.
