EastEnders star's son, 2, rushed to hospital after eating ‘toxic' plant
Victoria Bye, the wife of EastEnders star James Bye, has opened up about a terrifying situation that saw their son rushed to hospital. Victoria and James have four children together called Edward, Louis, Hugo and Rufus. Over the weekend, Victoria took to her Instagram page Life With The Byes to reveal Rufus, who is 2, was rushed to hospital last week after eating a toxic but common plant found in UK gardens. She wrote: 'More of a public service announcement than a post really but as we all know, life with kids is anything but predictable. So, after spending the night in hospital (I swear they'll start charging us rent soon) after Rufus decided to snack on a plant in the garden — one I didn't even know was dangerous. All hell let loose. (full video in next post – wouldn't let me post here).' Victoria went on to reveal that within minutes of Rufus ingesting the plant, his 'tongue had started to swell', he was 'screaming' and they quickly had to call 999. She added: 'Thankfully he's absolutely fine now. But it turned out the culprit was Italian Arum, a really common plant with bright orange berries that looks innocent but is seriously toxic if ingested. 'I mean, I had no idea. And once I started looking into it… turns out there are loads of plants like that quietly minding their own (deadly) business in UK gardens. 'So, in true mum fashion, I made a list. For anyone else who didn't know either. Because no one needs that kind of adrenaline on a Tuesday afternoon.' Victoria's list features plants including Foxglove, Yew and Lily of the Valley. The list is incredibly helpful, as she's also notes the specific parts of the plants – such as bulbs or small flowers – that are the most toxic to humans.

Maryland dog attack caught on camera, victim claims police never responded
DISTRICT HEIGHTS, Md. - A dog attack captured on video has sparked concerns after the victim says police never responded to multiple emergency calls in the immediate aftermath. The Brief Dog attack caught on video sparks concerns over emergency response delays. Victim, 11-month-old rescue both injured; police allegedly did not respond in the immediate aftermath. Investigation ongoing. The woman, who asked not to be identified, said she was visiting her new home in District Heights last weekend when the attack occurred. What we know A neighbor's Ring camera recorded the entire incident, showing a large dog lunging at her 11-month-old rescue named, "Lily of the Valley," just before 10 a.m. this past Sunday. The woman credits her neighbor with running to help and taking her to get urgent care. She tells FOX 5 she suffered severe finger injuries, and her dog sustained multiple puncture wounds. She also said she had to get a Tetanus shot and at least seven rabies shots, with more rounds expected. The victim shared timestamps of her calls to 9-1-1. You hear a neighbor instruct someone in their home to call 9-1-1. FOX 5's Stephanie Ramirez also heard the radio dispatch call go out for a woman bit by a dog on Prince Stephanie Court. However, the victim claims no officer or ambulance ever came. FOX 5 reached out to Prince George's County Police. We are also aware District Heights has a small department. In an emotional interview Wednesday morning, the woman told FOX 5, "I'm an new resident at Prince George's County and I was just appalled at the fact that response didn't come." "I'm sorry," she said wiping away tears, "and I don't how much longer I could have waited. I definitely couldn't' drive myself so I'm not sure what would've happened if the neighbors — if that one neighbor hadn't taken me to the hospital. And I think it's terrible that — for anyone to have to go through that or not get help if they need it." The woman says it was over an hour after the incident when she got a call from an officer wanting to take a police report. She says she later spoke with that officer in-person, who apparently told her an ambulance couldn't come until police secured the scene. That is not uncommon practice for responses in the region. However, it's still not clear why police did not immediately respond to this emergency. This is a developing story. The Source Information in this article comes from details gathered by FOX 5's Stephanie Ramirez, including an interview with the victim.
