Former college basketball player Cameron Woodall, 26, dies in Mississippi after ATV crash
Cameron Woodall, a former college basketball player and two-time Mississippi state champion in high school, has died after reportedly being involved in an ATV crash over the weekend. He was 26. Woodall was driving a 4-wheeler in Raymond, Mississippi, at around 11:30 p.m. local time when he lost control of the vehicle and overturned, interim Hinds County Coroner Jeremiah Howard told WLBT. Another person driving a separate ATV was also involved in the incident. That person was reportedly taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. An investigation into the accident is ongoing, the Mississippi Clarion Ledger reported. A Mississippi native, Woodall was a standout on the basketball team at Raymond High School, where he won a state championship in 2017 and 2018. He went on to play college basketball at Copiah-Lincoln Community College, Grambling State and most recently at Tougaloo College. "It is with profound sadness that we share the untimely passing of Cameron D. 'Big Cam' Woodall, a beloved former Tougaloo College men's basketball standout. Known for his larger-than-life presence, fierce competitiveness on the court, and kind-hearted spirit off it, Cam left an indelible mark on the Tougaloo family," the school's athletics page posted on Instagram. "His impact extended far beyond basketball; he was a friend, a brother, and a true Bulldog through and through. We send our deepest condolences to his family, friends, teammates, and all who had the privilege of knowing him." Copiah-Lincoln also shared a post honoring Woodall on X. "The Co-Lin family extends our heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and former teammates of former Co-Lin basketball player Cameron Woodall."

Lackawanna County community reels after child killed in ATV crash
JEFFERSON TOWNSHIP, LACKAWANNA COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — A Lackawanna County community is coping with tragedy on Saturday. They are mourning the death of a Spring Brook Township boy killed in an ATV crash. While it is still unclear exactly how the crash occurred, the community is devastated. 'I'm scared that more kids are not going to make it to high school,' North Pocono High School Junior Brennan Huber said. Huber is talking about the boy killed Friday evening after an ATV crash on private property. It happened in Jefferson Township just off Stevens Road. Huber is a junior at North Pocono High School. He was at North Pocono High School's graduation ceremony when he received messages about the fatal crash. That's when he opened his phone and tuned into the local emergency scanner. 'I was listening to them, they had a life flight called, and I guess they canceled the life flight,' Huber continued. Search to continue Sunday for man swept away in Lycoming County creek This is the second fatal crash this year in the North Pocono School District. In February, 18-year-old senior Noah Rinker lost his life when his vehicle rolled over on Route 435 in Covington Township. 'With Noah Rinker, they had support groups set up at the high school, and they had therapy sessions for the family and the friends,' Huber explained. Another tragedy happened two years ago. 17-year-old Kaden Rabender was killed in a car crash in Spring Brook Township. With summer break in full swing, Huber is worried for his fellow students. 'With Kadan up on 307, I'm more worried about, like, with some of these kids on ATVs driving recklessly, getting in cars, same thing happening to Kadan, and the same thing could happen to anybody,' Huber added. Huber says local kids have been taking to social media to rev their ATVs and dirt bikes as a way to mourn the loss of the latest victim. 'They're all wearing yellow hard hats, because his 'Bitmoji' had a yellow hard hat,' Huber said. State police are still investigating the fatal crash. It's being treated as an accidental death.

Photo: Supplied/Windsor Park Stud Waikato Police have asked people to stop sharing untrue theories and rumours following the death of two children in Cambridge last weekend. A 14-year-old girl died after a house fire on Brennan Place, Cambridge on Saturday night. On Sunday, 10-year-old Jimmy Schick died in an all-terrain vehicle crash on French Pass Road outside of Cambridge. Three others were seriously injured in the accident. Waikato Police said it was conducting investigations into both incidents on behalf of the Coroner who would make findings based on the facts. It asked that people refrain from publicly sharing "theories" and "rumours" that are not based on fact. "We have been made aware of some of these theories that are far removed from the facts. It is both unhelpful and hurtful to the grieving families." Sergeant Greg Foster of Cambridge Police said the deaths were tragedies. "Over the two incidents emergency services from our local Cambridge volunteer fire brigade, ambulance, Westpac Rescue Helicopter and local Cambridge Police attended. I am extremely proud of the urgency, professionalism and care shown by everyone in the most difficult of situations. Their actions have undoubtedly saved lives." Foster said the families have expressed their gratitude for the efforts of all that were involved. The Schick family have started a Give a Little page to raise money for emergency services that responded to the crash. "Rod, Oli & Jack who were rescued at the scene would love to personally distribute all funds to the amazing emergency services, Cambridge Fire Brigade, Hato Hone St John Ambulance and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Trust who were truly amazing in our time of need. A huge thanks also to our local Police who were fantastic," the family said. The family said they have been overwhelmed and extremely grateful for the outpouring of love and support shown at this extremely difficult time.
