Antonio Brown 'temporarily detained' after boxing event altercation, WR claims
Antonio Brown 'temporarily detained' after boxing event altercation, WR claims Show Caption Hide Caption Five NFL games we can't wait to watch in the 2025 season The NFL schedule for the 2025-2026 season has been released. Here are a few games on our must-watch list. Antonio Brown was "temporarily detained" by police Saturday after an altercation in which gunshots were fired outside at a celebrity boxing event in Miami, the former NFL star announced on social media. Miami Police Department spokesperson Kiara Delva told the USA TODAY Sports Network that Miami Police received an alert from ShotSpotter — a gunshot detection system — at approximately 3 a.m. ET Saturday. They arrived at the location the system produced and discovered an event, hosted by popular streamer Adin Ross, was being held there. The police then initiated an investigation, which "included canvassing the area and interviewing several individuals." Delva could not confirm the names of the individuals at the scene at the time of the incident. No injured persons were located, nor were any arrests made as a result of the investigation, which is ongoing. Video posted to social media showed Brown involved in a fight with several people. The 36-year-old could be seen jogging as he exited a garage. Gunshots can be heard off-camera near the end of the footage. Brown claimed he was "jumped by multiple individuals" who attempted to steal jewelry from him. "Police temporarily detained me until they received my side of the story and then released me," Brown wrote on social media. "I WENT HOME THAT NIGHT AND WAS NOT ARRESTED." Brown did not mention the gunshots in his statement. He did say he would try to press charges "on the individuals that jumped [him]." Brown also told Ross he couldn't remember what had happened during the incident in a livestream shortly after it occurred. "Yeah I got CTE, I blacked out," Brown said. "I blacked out, Adin. I don't know what happened." Brown last played in the NFL in 2021 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He played a total of 12 NFL seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots and Buccaneers.

Semi-high-speed rail corridor on Mum-Ahm route nears completion
MUMBAI: With 95% of the work on it completed, the semi-high-speed rail corridor on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad route is almost done. Once complete, trains such as Vande Bharat, Rajdhani and Shatabdi can run at 160 kmph, bringing down travel time substantially. The rail corridor is part of Western Railway's (WR) 92 priority projects, which are collectively worth over ₹9,862 crore and is the most expensive one at ₹8,095 crore. According to WR officials, the minimum necessary work on upgrading rail tracks, installing metal beam fencing and ballast cushioning to the desired level for trains to run at 160kmph is complete. WR has completed vital engineering works, which include strengthening 120-plus bridge approaches, rehabilitation of 138 bridges, and straightening of 134 curvatures along the route. It has also installed safety barriers along 792 km to prevent people and cattle from trespassing. 'We are presently taking up further upgradation to smoothen the train ride, for which steps have been recommended,' said a WR official. 'Work on installing Kavach is also underway. We expect the rail line to be ready by December this year.' Some of the ongoing improvement works include increasing the ballast level to 350 mm from 300 mm for better cushioning and safety. The steel sleepers under the tracks and foot over bridges will be enhanced, besides which other measures such as augmenting power supply by 2x25,000 volt lines are on the anvil. 'We will also provide space on the sides of the rail lines for constructing passages to erect poles and other paraphernalia required for the high-powered cables,' said the official. The total cost of upping the power supply is expected to be around ₹60 crore. At present, the trains are powered with 25,000 volts. Once the rail authorities achieve train operations at 160 kmph, passengers can expect to save around 45 to 60 minutes from Mumbai to Ahmedabad, a journey that now takes around five and a half hours. This will be among the first routes from Mumbai where Vande Bharat trains will operate as semi high-speed trains. There are 50-odd trains connecting Mumbai and Ahmedabad, including Vande Bharat, Tejas and Shatabdi. 'We will revise the timetable of long-distance trains once the upgrade to 160 kmph happens,' said another WR official. At present, long-distance trains run at 100 kmph on the Mumbai Central-Borivali stretch and at 110 kmph on the Borivali-Virar route. The 1,479-km Delhi-Mumbai and the 1,525-km Delhi-Howrah sections are key stretches where the railways are trying to bring down travel time. Within the 1,379-km Mumbai-Delhi route, nearly 50% of it, from Mumbai Central to Nagda, falls under Western Railway. The remaining km are divided between West Central Railways and Northern Railway. Apart from this, WR is also carrying out work worth 1,700 crore to augment facilities. These include developing new terminuses at Jogeshwari and Vasai, adding pit lines for maintenance at Bandra Terminus and Mumbai Central Terminus, yard remodelling at Andheri and improving the signalling systems outside Mumbai.

WR's Bandra Terminus-Borivli 6th line set for July completion
Mumbai: The Western Railway (WR) is inching closer to completing the much-delayed 30-km sixth line between Bandra Terminus and Borivli, with work on the final 3.7-km stretch between Kandivli and Borivli now expected to be completed in commissioned, the extension is expected to significantly improve the punctuality of long-distance trains by easing congestion on the existing network. At present, the sixth line—commissioned up to Goregaon in Nov 2022 and extended to Kandivli in Oct 2023 — is operational only between Bandra Terminus and Kandivli. It currently handles around 20 mail and express trains every day."The sixth line is a dedicated corridor for long-distance trains, and extending it up to Borivali will help us streamline operations and reduce delays," a senior WR official said. "We are in the final stages of completing this stretch and are working on critical components like dismantling an infringing structure and re-girdering Major Bridge 61 with a pre-stressed concrete slab."Meanwhile, the fifth line originates from Mumbai Central and ends at Borivli. However, a key 5-km section between Mahim and Khar remains incomplete due to encroachments. Western Railway commissioned the fifth line between Mumbai Central and Mahim in 1993 and between Santacruz and Borivali in 2002, but the missing link continues to hamper full-scale operations."The missing link on the fifth line has been a persistent bottleneck. Without that, we can't fully segregate suburban and long-distance trains, which is critical to our operational efficiency," the official there are four lines between Churchgate-Marine Lines and Borivli-Virar, with the fifth line running between Mumbai Central and Borivli, and the sixth between Bandra Terminus and sixth line project, a key component of the Mumbai Urban Transport Project (MUTP-II), has faced repeated delays and cost overruns. Initially estimated at Rs 5,300 crore, the revised cost of the project now stands at Rs 8,087 crore. The project includes three phases—Vile Parle to Kandivli (completed), Kandivli to Borivli (underway), and Mumbai Central to Khar (yet to begin).
