Video shows student sprinting across stage with baby to receive diploma as police chases
Video shows student sprinting across stage with baby to receive diploma as police chases Show Caption Hide Caption Graduate evades police with infant son The crowd cheered as a graduate student at University at Buffalo ran up the stage holding his infant son with police in tow. A graduating student at the University at Buffalo in New York caused quite a stir as he sprinted across the stage with his baby son to accept his diploma, all while being chased by the police. University at Buffalo's College of Arts and Sciences commencement ceremony livestream captured the graduate, Paul Al Arab, as he ran onto the stage holding his son with a police officer chasing after him. Upon reaching the stage, Al Arab shook hands with those onstage and collected his diploma before pumping his fist in the air as the audience cheered him on. The police officer, meanwhile, could be seen walking behind him. Both the father and son were dressed in matching blue caps and gowns. Why police chasing Al Arab? Al Arab, who graduated with a bachelor's degree in criminology, according to WGRZ, also posted the clip of the incident on TikTok and shared what went down behind the scenes. 'I'm a full-time student, working two jobs—one of them overnight—and taking care of my son during the day until his mom gets home from work,' Al Arab said in the caption of the video, which played a snippet from Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" performance during the 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show in the background. 'And here I am, graduating, with my boy by my side. WE DID IT!' Shortly after the video started gaining traction on social media, Al Arab added a note explaining what went down on the May 19 ceremony. 'Hey, I just want to explain what happened since a lot of people have been asking," Al Arab wrote. "During a prep class for commencement, I asked if I could walk with my baby and they told me it was fine. But when the time came, they tried to stop me and even called the police. They tried to escort me out, but honestly, the only reason they let me go was because of all of you who cheered and supported me — so thank you.' University at Buffalo says Al Arab's son didn't earn 'enough credits to receive a diploma' University at Buffalo, in a statement, addressed the incident, saying the "graduating senior ignored multiple directives from university event staff and UB Police, ran away from officers, and broke commencement rules by bringing an infant onto the commencement stage at Alumni Arena." "While the situation created a light-hearted moment for the thousands in attendance who cheered on as the graduate took to the stage with the infant in his arms, the graduate's actions were a violation of commencement rules which clearly state that 'only graduating students may participate in the graduation ceremony, including walking in the processional and crossing the stage'," the statement continued. The university said the graduate, in an email, apologized for the disruption and that the university will not be penalizing him, adding that commencement rules are in place for the safety of all those in attendance. "The graduate who broke the rules on Sunday will not be penalized and will still receive his degree from the university," the statement said. "The infant, despite crossing the stage in a cap and gown, has not yet earned enough credits to receive a diploma," the college added. "We hope to see him back on stage in about 20 years so he can follow in his dad's footsteps." Al Arab creates GoFundMe to support student parents Following the incident, Al Arab is using his virality to spotlight student parents and help those struggling to complete their education while fulfilling their parental duties by setting up a GoFundMe with an aim to raise $10,000. "Balancing two jobs, being a full-time dad, and pursuing my education has been challenging, but I promised my son that I would walk that stage with him," Al Arab said in the fundraiser's description. "It symbolized every sacrifice and sleepless night." Al Arab maintained he was allowed to walk onto the stage with a baby. "No one objected, so I didn't see a reason to double-check," Al Arab said. "I've seen others walk with their babies at graduations before, so it didn't seem like a big deal. That's why I was surprised when they tried to stop me and involved campus police." Thanking his professors and audience members for their support, Al Arab said he did not mean to "cause a scene" and that he has "a lot of respect for UB and my professors." "I was just a proud dad, keeping a promise," he said. "It's time we normalize seeing fathers in these moments. Being active, present, and proud shouldn't be surprising. It should be celebrated just like we do for moms." Saman Shafiq is a trending news reporter for USA TODAY. Reach her at sshafiq@ and follow her on X and Instagram @saman_shafiq7.

Warren G Seemingly Feels Cast Aside By Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg Amid Unanswered Phone Calls
Warren G is opening up about feeling distanced from two of his closest collaborators and friends, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. During a recent appearance on the Ugly Monkey podcast, the 54-year-old rapper and producer expressed his disappointment over the lack of communication between himself and the two icons, both of whom he shares a deep history with. 'Snoop and Dre get down and they doing things and it's no diss to neither one of them or anything like that,' Warren G shared. 'But it's like, y'all could call Warren to come do a cameo or come hang out or something.' Warren G, who is Dr. Dre's stepbrother and a founding member of the group 213 alongside Dre and Snoop, played a pivotal role in launching Snoop's career by introducing him to Dre — a meeting that would lead to the creation of The Chronic, and ultimately, the rise of Death Row Records. Despite his early contributions to their success, Warren, who helped shape the sound of '90s Hip-Hop through his own work, says he now finds himself on the outside looking in. 'I don't want no money or nothing from nobody, just call me to be around,' he emphasized, underscoring that his desire is rooted in friendship and shared history, not financial gain. The 'Regulate' rapper also recalled a particularly painful moment during the 2022 Super Bowl Halftime Show, which featured Dre and Snoop in a widely acclaimed performance. Although Snoop gave Warren and his son tickets to the game, Warren says he was unable to reach either Dre or Snoop when trying to get backstage. 'I was trying to get downstairs, to get down in the back, 'cause I had my son with me and he was home from the NFL,' Warren recounted. 'I couldn't even get backstage. I called everybody I knew. Nobody would answer their phones. I couldn't get backstage, none of that. I didn't give a f**k about performing, I just wanted to take my son down there to see all my folks and see everybody.' Despite his legacy — including his 1994 debut Regulate… G Funk Era, which helped save Def Jam Recordings from financial ruin — Warren G's remarks speak to a painful truth: even pioneers can be forgotten. For someone who once stood shoulder to shoulder with two of the most influential artists in Hip-Hop history, being shut out seemingly stings not just professionally, but personally. See Warren G's interview on the Ugly Monkey podcast below.

Rihanna Sends Fans Into a Frenzy With Baby Bump Debut in 'Glowing' Met Gala Moment
Rihanna closed down the 2025 Met Gala, arriving fashionably late on May 5, but there was a good reason for it—she's expecting her third child! After sending the internet into a frenzy upon her arrival at The Carlyle Hotel with her baby bump visible in the two-piece outfit, she doubled-down on the pregnancy reveal with husband A$AP Rocky. The songstress officially confirmed the news by putting her growing belly on display while walking the blue carpet at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and embracing the theme of 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style." Fans were sent into a frenzy over her "glowing" appearance, with one stating, "Radiant and regal," as another added, "She own it again." "Rihanna slayed at the #MetGala! Her bold look was a total vibe—iconic, fierce, and unforgettable. She owns the red carpet every time," someone else wrote, with another compliment reading, "rihanna aka the real star of the night has arrived." A$AP Rocky made an appearance at fashion's biggest night earlier in a "chic" suit with a matching jacket, as he served as co-chair of the event alongside Vogue's Anna Wintour, Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton and Pharrell Williams. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, who share sons RZA, 2, and Riot, 1, last attended the Met Gala in 2023, when the "Umbrella" songstress was pregnant with their second child and turned heads in a floral bridal look. Known for her major pregnancy announcements, she previously revealed that she was expecting her second child during her iconic Super Bowl Halftime Show. Congrats to the parents-to-be! Next, ce
