New York Times14-02-2025

Two women were shot Friday during the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl LIX victory parade, according to the Philadelphia Police Department.
The shooting took place around 2:35 p.m. ET on the highway near the 2300 block of Ben Franklin Parkway, located just outside the parade footprint, police said.
Medics transported the two women who were shot to Presbyterian Hospital, and they are listed in stable condition. One of the women, a 27-year-old, was shot in her leg and the other woman, a 20-year-old, was shot in the upper thigh.

Authorities are investigating the incident. No crime scene was located, nor was a weapon recovered, and police said they have not made any arrests.
'Anyone with information regarding this incident is urged to contact the Philadelphia Police Department,' police said.
Last year, one person was killed and at least 22 others were wounded during a shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl parade. Two Missouri men, Dominic Miller and Lyndell Mays, were later charged with murder in connection to that shooting.
According to the Associated Press, Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker and other city officials earlier this week urged fans to stay safe during the festivities.
'In the midst of all this beauty, all of the sacrifices this team has made to meet this moment, we don't want it to all go by the wayside,' Parker said, per the AP.

Taylor Swift 'Fears Imminent Harm' From Stalker Claiming She's The Mother of His Child

Taylor Swift 'Fears Imminent Harm' From Stalker Claiming She's The Mother of His Child originally appeared on Athlon Sports. In recent years, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been vocal about wishing to protect not only the privacy of his relationship with pop icon girlfriend Taylor Swift - but also Swift herself. But this time around? The music sensation needs help from the courts. Swift has been granted a restraining order against a Colorado man after he allegedly visited her Los Angeles home multiple times while insisted that she's the mother of his child. Swift filed the restraining order last Friday, alleging that a man named Brian Jason Wagner has 'made various statements about living at my property,' 'being in a relationship with me … believing I am the mother of his son … needing to see me in person,' according to a legal filing obtained by media outlets, which adds, "All of which are untrue and disconnected from reality.' Per the filing, Swift, says that Wagner first stopped by her Los Angeles home in 2024 and returned several times that July. She claimed that Wagner again stopped by her home in May 2025. Swift's security team reportedly later learned that Wagner was once in prison and had allegedly written lengthy jail cell letters to the Grammy winner 'about his infatuation with (her), a romantic relationship with (her ... which does not exist), and other completely fabricated stories about his involvement in (her) personal life.' The filing states that Wagner allegedly found a way to include Swift's address on his driver's license. Per the filing, Swift, 35, said, 'I have no relationship with Mr. Wagner and I have never met nor communicated with him,' she insisted, claiming she has a 'fear of imminent harm.' The temporary restraining order was granted on Monday and will expire on June 30. Swift - and Kelce, also 35 - are not stranger to such threats, with Kelce having beefed up security and made other changes to his home in Kansas City. A man was arrested in New York for a third time for stalking her in January 2024. And in July 2024, a man was arrested at her Eras Tour stop in Germany for allegedly threatening the couple. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 10, 2025, where it first appeared.

Most-Followed TikToker Khaby Lame Detained, Released by ICE Over Visa Issue

Khaby Lame, the most-followed TikToker in the world, was detained and released by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on June 6. On Monday, an ICE spokesperson confirmed that the Italian-Senegalese star had been detained at Las Vegas airport for alleged immigration violations. According to ICE, the 25-year-old TikToker, whose real name is Seringe Khabane Lame, had 'overstayed the terms of his visa' and was later granted voluntary departure.

Protests: What We Know 'U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Seringe Khabane Lame, 25, a citizen of Italy, June 6, at the Harry Reid International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada, for immigration violations,' an ICE spokesperson said in a statement. 'Lame entered the United States [on] April 30 and overstayed the terms of his visa.' According to ICE, Lame has since left the country. The influencer shared a photo of himself in São Paulo, Brazil, on Monday morning. A rep for Lame did not immediately respond to Rolling Stone's request for comment. The detainment of Lame comes as the Trump administration called for the military to be deployed against anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles. The protests, which began in response to raids on Friday, escalated over the weekend after Trump ordered the deployment of National Guard troops into the city. Gov. Gavin Newsom requested on Sunday that Trump revoke his federalization of the National Guard and withdraw them from the city. 'The decision to deploy the National Guard, without appropriate training or orders, risks seriously escalating the situation,' he wrote. 'There is currently no need for the National Guard to be deployed in Los Angeles, and to do so in this unlawful manner and for such a lengthy period is a serious breach of state sovereignty that seems intentionally designed to inflame the situation.' Lame's detainment also comes as numerous artists and celebrities have faced visa issues under the Trump administration, including Grupo Firme and Julión Álvarez.

Kansas City Super Bowl rally that ended in deadly shooting lacked necessary security, lawsuit says

Attorneys for three women who were caught in the flurry of gunfire at the end of the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade and rally in February 2024 have filed a lawsuit against the city and a handful of other defendants, saying the event lacked security protocols that could have prevented the incident. The shooting near Union Station — which killed one woman and injured dozens of attendees, including Erika Reyes, one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit, and her two children — was a 'preventable calamity, borne of systemic failures and negligence from the top down,' according to the lawsuit, which was filed Monday in Jackson County Circuit Court. The three women, Reyes, Esmeralda Ortiz and Kathleen Martinez, were near the gunfire and had close relationships with shooting victims, according to the lawsuit. Reyes, her two children and one of Martinez's children were struck by gunfire, attorneys wrote. 'While the terror of February 14 was perpetrated by young men with pistols and short-barreled rifles, responsibility for the shooting does not lie solely with them,' said Patrick Stueve, an attorney for the women, in a statement. 'This tragedy was also the result of negligence at multiple levels. We are pursuing this action not only to advocate for the victims of this tragedy, but to hold all parties accountable and to ensure safer celebrations for our community moving forward.' While police officers were spread throughout the parade route and rally areas, the rally had no security measures — checkpoints, metal detectors or barriers, the lawsuit said. Those security measures are necessary at mass gathering events and would have stopped the tragedy, attorneys wrote. Officials have said a dispute between two groups erupted into gunfire that sent attendees at the rally scrambling for cover. Lisa Lopez-Galvan, a 43-year-old Johnson County mother and local DJ, was fatally shot. Many others were injured by gunfire, and others suffered broken bones, brain injuries and dislocated joints, as they fled the area. 'This case is especially important now, given both the likelihood of another Celebration Rally, as well as the certainty of another mass gathering event at the Liberty Memorial, when the 2026 FIFA World Cup takes place,' the lawsuit said. The lawsuit requests damages as well as a court order requiring organizers to implement security standards like checkpoints, barriers, scanners and to work with third-party security consultants for future events. After the 2024 violence, local leaders considered changes to a potential celebration event if the Chiefs had won Super Bowl LIX and whether to forgo another mass rally. Earlier this year as the Chiefs began their postseason run, Mayor Quinton Lucas told The Kansas City Star that one option would have included a ticketed rally followed by a parade. The rally would have included security checkpoints like those fans go through at sporting events. In a statement provided to the Star on Tuesday, Kansas City spokeswoman Sherae Honeycutt said, 'The City of Kansas City recognizes the widespread impact the Super Bowl rally shooting had on our community. The City condemns the criminal actions that brought violence to what should have been a celebratory event. While the City has not yet been served with the petition, we will review it carefully once received and respond in accordance with the law.' Prosecutors filed criminal charges against Dominic Miller, Lyndell Mays, Terry Young and three youths following the shooting, and the lawsuit also names the three men and three unnamed individuals as defendants, saying they fired into the crowd with 'malicious intent.' Also charged were Fedo Manning, Ronnel Williams Jr. and Chaelyn Groves, in connection with guns that were used in the shooting, and those three men are also named as defendants in the civil lawsuit. Charges alleged the men were involved in illegal straw purchases and trafficking of firearms, not that they were among the shooters. Also named are Union Station, the Greater Kansas City Sports Commission, O'Neill Events & Marketing and Flyover Event Co. LLC, which the lawsuit said were involved in organizing the event. Frontier Justice LS, LLC, The Ammo Box and R.K. Shows Mo. Inc., which the lawsuit states were connected to the sales of guns used in the shooting, were also named. Frontier Justice allegedly sold 23 firearms between May and October 2022 to Manning and should have known that Manning was involved in gun trafficking, the lawsuit said. The Ammo Box allegedly ignored 'clear signs' that Williams was purchasing a firearm for someone else, the lawsuit states. Groves allegedly gave Williams the funds to buy the firearm at an R.K. Gun Shows event in November 2023 when he was 19 and not legally allowed to purchase a pistol. The gun was later found outside Union Station following the rally shooting. No hearings have been set in the lawsuit. Other defendants in the case were not immediately available for comment Tuesday. ___ © 2025 The Kansas City Star.
