According to cathedral workers, the golf cart was being rented for workers to use during the annual New Orleans Greek Festival, just days earlier. For festival organizers, the theft was just the latest problem, as they had to close the event early on Sunday, May 25, due to the surprise blackout that left more than 100,000 people without power in the New Orleans area.
According to police, the golf cart is a 2024 Evolution Turfman 1000 with a 'Golf Cart World' logo on the front.

Beloved Florida Keys fishing captain killed after road rage dispute near Orlando
A well-known Florida Keys charter fishing captain was fatally shot near Orlando late last week following what police say appears to be an argument with another man over traffic. Joseph Hall, Jr., 43, was pronounced dead at HCA Lake Monroe Hospital in Sanford around 5:45 p.m. Thursday night. Just minutes earlier, witnesses told police they saw another man, 24-year-old Jaden Harris, running after Hall at an apartment building parking lot with a handgun and shooting at him several times. Harris, who stayed at the scene, told Sanford police officers that he was driving his white BMW sedan behind Hall's Jeep Gladiator on South Mangoustine Avenue, and that Hall was driving very slowly. Harris told cops he passed Hall, who reacted by acting like he was going to use his Jeep to hit the BMW, according to his arrest report. Harris told police he followed Hall to try taking a picture of his license plate. When they arrived at a Stop sign at West Seminole Boulevard and Mangoustine Avenue, Hall rolled his window down and called him an expletive for a female body part. Harris followed Hall as he made a left turn onto West Seminole Boulevard. Hall pulled into the apartment complex on Marbella Lane, Harris told police. There, Harris told police Hall blocked the parking lot exit with his Jeep and got out of the vehicle, approaching the BMW, according to the report. As Hall got closer to the BMW, Harris let him know that 'had it on him,' meaning his gun, according to the report. He said Hall 'lunged' toward the car, and that's when he fired his first shot, the report states. Per the arrest report, when the first officer arrived and found Harris standing by his car, the cop asked him if he was the one who shot Hall. He responded, 'I had to because he was blocking me in,' the report states. After detectives asked Harris to tell them more about what was said before he opened fire, he told them he wanted an attorney, so they stopped questioning him, according to the report. Based on what witnesses told police, what Harris told them, and after viewing security camera footage from the apartment building, officers arrested him on a charge of second-degree murder. The footage did not capture the shooting, but shows Harris' BMW rolling backwards before he catches up to it and puts the car in park. This corroborates what witnesses say, that he got out of the car and kept firing, according to the report. Detectives said Harris 'had several opportunities to disengage from pursuing Joseph but maliciously continued instead. Based on Jaden's post Miranda interview, he never stated that at the time of the incident he was ever in fear for his life.' Detectives also note in the report that neither Harris nor the witnesses ever said Hall was armed. 'Joseph did not cause Jaden any injury or harm to him that would justify the use of deadly force,' the report states. A judge ordered Harris held without bond until his scheduled Oct. 7 arraignment, according to Seminole County court records. News of Hall's death hit the Upper Keys community hard after his wife, Devi, with whom he shares two children, posted about it via Facebook on Saturday. 'He was full of life, laughter, and love, and I am so grateful for every moment we had together,' she wrote. Hall owned and captained the 65-foot Sailors Choice Party Fishing Boat as well as the Anglers Choice sportfishing charter boat, both based out of the mile marker 99.7 oceanside marina in Key Largo. Tributes from loyal customers, crew and colleagues have continued to pour in to the Sailors Choice Facebook page since Hall's death. 'We are so deeply sorry for your loss. Captain Joe touched the lives of many with his kindness, passion, and love for the water. He had a gift for making everyone feel welcome and for creating memories that families will cherish forever. His legacy will live on through every story, every smile, and every fish caught aboard Sailors' Choice and Angler's Choice,' the crew of the Key Largo Princess Glass Bottom Boat wrote.

Modesto homeowner says a car crashed into her home again, calls for change
A car crashed into a home in Modesto over the weekend, coming way too close for comfort for the family inside. Homeowner Denise Barzan said it happened on Saturday around 4 p.m. when a car sped off Briggsmore Avenue, plowed through the wood fence, crashed entirely through the garage and then went in reverse back out onto the street. "Again. It's happened again?" said Barzan. Barzan said it was about the tenth time a car crashed into the neighborhood off Briggsmore Avenue. Barzan shared photos of the driver's busted-up Jeep and the immediate aftermath. On Sunday, the garage was boarded up, but there was still a mangled mess of fencing, patio furniture, and even debris that flew on top of the roof. "They said it was really like something just out of a movie," said Barzan. Barzan said the home has been in her family for about 30 years, but the current tenants who live there have a little boy who usually plays inside the garage or on the patio. She is thankful no one was in these spots at the time of the crash. Modesto Fire responded to the crash and confirmed there were no injuries. "The real scary thing is, is that this tenant has a little boy, that garage is kind of a play area," said Barzan. "It just literally plowed right through that if he would have been home." Teodore Mendoza heard the booming crash from his home next door. "I hoped nobody died," said Mendoza. His home has a cement wall that a previous homeowner built behind it, but Mendoza said the city has raised concerns about how dangerous it could be if a driver were to hit the cement. "If this thing is not here, they are going to go into the house and I have my kids and wife in there, so it's either them or my family," Mendoza said. Barzan is brainstorming how she will build back her barricade better, but she does not want to find a solution alone this time. "There was one year that three times in one year that the fence had to be rebuilt in that exact location," said Barzan. She claims the city wasn't helpful after past crashes, but hopes this time it will be different. "I don't expect them to take care of our property, but they need to do something to make a little bit of effort to make this secure," Barzan said. The speed limit on the street is 50 miles per hour. She hopes her story will prevent the speedsters and protect the families who live in the homes only separated from the city road by an inconsistent stretch of fencing. CBS Sacramento reached out to the city and police to learn more about the crash and the history of accidents at the location. Neither immediately responded before this story was published.
