Crime

Chicago has been plagued by carjacking crimes in recent years ... and now video has emerged showing just how harrowing the experience can be for a victim.

Surveillance footage, obtained by the Daily Mail, captures the moment a man sitting in a parked car is targeted by gun-wielding assailants who arrive in two other vehicles and block him in at an intersection on September 2.

The man tries to drive away, but he's trapped. One suspect darts out of his car, pointing his gun at the driver. Gunmen from the second vehicle jump out and converge on the motorist as well.

You can't hear what's being said, but it's a good guess the suspects are ordering the man to get the f*** out of the car so they can steal it.

And eventually, that's what happens. The bad guys drive away in their cars, as well as the one they just jacked from the driver, leaving him face down in the middle of the street.

Luckily, the man wasn't hit by a passing automobile. He got up and ran away but did not report the terrifying ordeal to Chicago PD.

Shannon Beador was allegedly pretty boozed up ahead of her car crash and DUI arrest -- we're told she was at a nearby bar, complaining about a certain former 'RHOC' star.

A witness tells TMZ ... Shannon was with her pal and business partner, Steve Muller, at "A Restaurant" -- that's the real name -- in Newport Beach, CA on Saturday night. FYI, the spot is about half a mile from where she crashed her car later in the night.

We're told Shannon appeared tipsy while hanging at the bar the entire time, but it's unclear exactly what she was sippin' on. As one witness put it ... she was loud and boisterous through the night, with her arms flailing in the air.

A fan even snapped a pic with the reality star as the night went on.

We're told Shannon was overheard at one point complaining about former 'Housewives' star Alexis Bellino, who was also in the restaurant -- although, that allegedly didn't stop Shannon from bitching about her to other people nearby, with real animosity in the air.

When reached for comment, Alexis told TMZ ... "When my girlfriends and I arrived for a fun night out together, it was soon brought to my attention that Shannon was also at the same restaurant. Shannon and I did not interact that night, but it greatly saddens me to learn that she may harbor negative feelings or resentment toward me, as I was not involved in Jim Bellino's lawsuit against Shannon. From one single mother to another, I wish Shannon nothing but the best as I know she is facing trying times ahead."

In case you didn't know, Alexis is referring to her ex-husband, Jim, who filed a million-dollar defamation lawsuit against Shannon and Tamra Judge in 2018, claiming they talked smack about his business on a podcast.

Don't forget, Shannon's night at the bar came hours before video showed her car slamming into the side of a home ... leading up to her arrest for DUI and hit-and-run.

Chicago ha estado plagado de delitos de robo de carros los últimos años y ahora ha surgido un video que muestra lo desgarrador que la experiencia puede ser para una víctima.

Las imágenes de vigilancia (obtenidas por el Daily Mail) captan el momento en que un hombre sentado en un carro estacionado es blanco de asaltantes armados que llegan en otros dos vehículos y le bloquean el paso en un cruce el 2 de septiembre.

El hombre intenta huir con el carro pero está atrapado. Uno de los sospechosos sale y apunta al conductor con su arma. Los hombres armados del segundo vehículo saltan y convergen en el automovilista también.

No se oye lo que dicen, pero los sospechosos ordenan al hombre que salga del carro para poder robarlo.

Y al final, eso es lo que ocurre. Los malhechores se marchan en sus carros, así como el que acaban de robar al conductor, dejándolo boca abajo en medio de la calle.

Por suerte el hombre no fue atropellado por un automóvil que pasaba. Se levantó y huyó, pero no denunció la aterradora experiencia a la policía de Chicago.

Shannon Beador estaba supuestamente borracha al momento del accidente de carro que terminó en arresto. Nos informan que estaba en un bar cercano quejándose de un viejo amor de "RHOC".

Un testigo nos infomó que Shannon estaba con su amigo y socio de negocios, Steve Muller, en "A Restaurant" (sí, ese es el nombre real) en Newport Beach California el sábado por la noche. Para tu informacion, el lugar está a media milla de donde estrelló su carro más tarde por la noche.

Nos dicen que Shannon parecía ebria en el bar, pero no está claro exactamente lo que estaba bebiendo. Como un testigo dijo; fue ruidosa y bulliciosa durante toda la noche, incluso agitó sus brazos en el aire.

Un fan incluso se tomó una foto con la estrella de reallity cuando la noche se encendió.

Nos dicen que se pudo escuchar a Shannon quejándose de la ex estrella de "Housewives" Alexis Bellino, que también estaba en el restaurante, aunque supuestamente no impidió que Shannon se quejara de ella a otras personas cercanas con verdadera animosidad en el aire.

Cuando se le pidió un comentario, Alexis le dijo a TMZ: "Cuando mis amigas y yo llegamos para una noche de diversión, pronto me mencionaron que Shannon estaba en el mismo restaurante. Shannon y yo no interactuamos esa noche, pero me entristece mucho saber que ella puede albergar sentimientos negativos o resentimiento hacia mí ya que yo no estaba involucrada en la demanda de Jim Bellino contra Shannon. De una madre soltera a otra, le deseo a Shannon sólo lo mejor, ya que sé que se enfrenta a tiempos difíciles por delante."

Por si no lo sabías, Alexis se refiere a su ex marido, Jim, quien presentó una demanda millonaria por difamación contra Shannon y Tamra Judge en 2018, alegando que hablaron mal de su negocio en un podcast.

No nos olvidemos de que todo este asunto del bar fue horas antes del incidente capturado en video que mostraba su carro estrellándose contra el lado de una casa, lo que llevó a su arresto por conducir bajo efecto del alcohol y fuga.

Tamar Braxton told cops her car was "completely trashed" by thieves ... getting emotional just looking at it, as seen in the body cam footage.

The footage, obtained by TMZ, shows the singer chatting with officers Monday morning about what she says happened -- explaining it's gonna be tough to figure out everything they took.

At one point, Tamar takes a peek in the car before having to look away, saying she might cry just based on the condition of the vehicle. The cop eventually opens the door, showing some clutter on the passenger side -- but the rest of her vehicle's interior isn't visible.

Tamar says she usually locks her car, but admits she came down the night before to get something out of it, and isn't totally positive if she locked it back up.

BTW, Tamar says the culprits oddly enough left a computer behind when they took off.

Tamar Braxton dijo a la policía que su carre estaba "completamente destrozado" por los ladrones y que se  ponía emocional con sólo mirarlo, como se puede apreciar en las imágenes.

La grabación obtenida por TMZ muestra a la cantante charlando con los oficiales el lunes por la mañana sobre lo que ella dice que pasó, explicando que va a ser difícil de averiguar todo lo que se llevaron.

En un momento dado, Tamar le echa un vistazo al carro antes de tener que mirar hacia otro lado, diciendo que podría llorar sólo sobre la base de la condición del vehículo. El policía finalmente abre la puerta, mostrando un poco de desorden en el lado del pasajero, pero el resto del interior de su vehículo no es visible.

Tamar dice que por lo general cierra su coche, pero admite que bajó la noche anterior para sacar algo de ella, y no es totalmente positivo si ella cerró de nuevo.

Por cierto, Tamar dice que los culpables extrañamente dejaron un ordenador detrás cuando se fueron.

Un hombre de Connecticut intentó impedir que dos ladrones de coches robaran su deportivo Aston Martin... sin embargo su heroísmo se quedó corto y acabó con una paliza grabada en vídeo.

Échale un vistazo a esta grabación que captó la intensa batalla entre unos ladrones enmascarados y el valiente hombre en el garaje de su casa de Westport el domingo por la tarde que trató de frenarlos.

Como se puede ver, el hombre estaba sentado al volante de su vehículo de lujo cuando los sospechosos descaradamente entraron y se enfrentaron a él.

Uno de los delincuentes abre la puerta del conductor y le ordena que salga, pero él se niega y ambos se enzarzan en una pelea.

El otro asaltante se apresura a ayudar a su compañero, pero el hombre logra repelerlos brevemente.

Al volverse más agresivos, los asaltantes tiran al hombre de su asiento y lo tiran al suelo antes de saltar al interior del coche.

Cuando están a punto de arrancar el hombre se levanta y empieza a pelearse con el conductor mientras grita que alguien llame a la policía.

Eso sólo hace que los ladrones se enfaden más y empiezan a golpear al hombre mientras el vídeo se corta.

Un representante de la policía de Westport dijo que los sospechosos huyeron a toda velocidad en el coche y siguen en libertad.

A Connecticut man tried to stop two carjackers from stealing his Aston Martin sports car ... but his heroics fell short and ended with him getting a video-recorded beatdown.

Check out this Ring camera footage, which captured the intense battle between the masked thieves and the courageous man in his garage at his Westport home on Sunday afternoon.

As you can see, the man is sitting behind the wheel of his luxury vehicle when the suspects brazenly walk in and confront him.

One perp throws open the driver's side door and orders him out, but he refuses and the two get into a tussle.

The other perp hurries over to help his buddy, but the man is able to briefly fend them off.

Turning more aggressive, the assailants yank the man out of his seat and toss him to the ground before jumping into the car.

As they're about to pull away, the man stands up and starts fighting with the driver while screaming out for someone to call the police.

That only makes the thieves angrier, and they begin pummeling the man as the video cuts off.

A rep for Westport PD said the suspects sped away in the car and are still at large.

It seems like Blueface's street code is preventing law enforcement from putting together a case against his alleged assailant.

The L.A. County District Attorney's office tells TMZ Hip Hop ... the case has been rejected, for now, due to Blueface's lack of cooperation with the investigation. The video doesn't clearly show everything necessary to bring a criminal case, so, we're told investigators needed cooperation from witnesses to move forward.

According to docs, Blueface refused to answer any of the responding officer's questions, refused to provide his ID and even rejected medical aid ... though he quickly posted his bloody injury on social media, assuring fans he was good.

As we previously told you, Brandon Henrysnell had turned himself in on August 24, and was booked for felony assault with a deadly weapon.

But, the case won't go any further ... as authorities reviewed the footage, and while it clearly shows an altercation, it's missing the key moment Brandon allegedly stabbed Blueface.

Tamar Braxton says her car was broken into and ransacked -- and she's lamenting the fact she doesn't feel safe, even at home ... which is understandable considering the video.

The singer posted 4 clips on IG Monday, which show a handful of men going through a vehicle in a covered, seemingly subterranean garage ... rummaging around and removing various items as they appear to be staging a getaway in another car.

Tamar writes, "I got robbed. At home. I’m not safe anywhere. I don’t know why I keep getting violated. I had a lot in my car cause I don’t live anywhere cause I’m not safe anywhere or with anyone."

It's unclear when exactly this took place, but if it was on Sunday ... that's shocking, because she was at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta to sing the National Anthem ahead of the Packers-Falcons game. Tamar is known to have property in the ATL area, too.

The other notable thing about this is the fact that Tamar says she doesn't "live" anywhere anymore because of situations like this ... which has sparked concern online.

Tamar Braxton dice que su coche fue roto y saqueado - y ella está lamentando el hecho de que ella no se siente segura, incluso en casa ... lo cual es comprensible teniendo en cuenta el video.

La cantante publicó 4 clips en Instagram lunes que muestran un puñado de hombres que van a través de un vehículo en un garaje cubierto, aparentemente subterráneo, hurgando y quitando varios elementos. Los sujetos parecen tener el escape listo en otro coche.

Tamar escribe: "Me robaron. En casa. No estoy segura en ningún sitio. No sé por qué me siguen violando. Tenía mucho en mi coche porque no vivo en ningún sitio porque no estoy segura en ningún sitio ni con nadie".

No está claro cuándo ocurrió exactamente, pero si fue el domingo... es chocante, porque ella estaba en el Mercedes-Benz Stadium de Atlanta para cantar el Himno Nacional antes del partido Packers-Falcons. Se sabe que Tamar también tiene propiedades en la zona de ATL.

La otra cosa notable es el hecho de que Tamar dice que ella no "vive" en ningun lugar debido a situaciones como esta. Todo esto ha desatado preocupación en línea.

En un vídeo se escucha a dos adolescentes riendo mientras arrollan deliberadamente con su carro a un ciclista en Nevada, matándolo.

El conductor de 17 años y su acompañante circulaban por una calle de Las Vegas el 14 de agosto y se acercaron por detrás de Andreas Probst, que circulaba en bicicleta por el carril de ciclistas.

El pasajero, que estaba grabando con su teléfono móvil, empezó a reírse con el conductor mientras planeaban atropellar a Probst, un jefe de policía jubilado de California, se les puede oír decir: "¿Preparado?" y "Sí, pégale en el culo".

Momentos después, el conductor chocó contra Probst, haciéndole salir volando hacia el parabrisas antes de caer al suelo.

Probst fue trasladado a un hospital local donde fue declarado muerto.

Los adolescentes huyeron del lugar pero el conductor fue detenido poco después por el atropello y fuga. Los cargos se elevaron posteriormente a homicidio cuando el vídeo apareció recientemente en Internet mostrando que el crimen fue intencionado.

Two teens were heard laughing on a video as they deliberately plowed their car into a bicyclist in Nevada, killing the man -- a retired police chief.

The 17-year-old driver and his passenger were cruising down a street in Las Vegas on August 14, coming up behind Andreas Probst as he rode his cycle in the bike lane.
Filming with his cell phone, the passenger was chuckling with the driver as they plotted to run over Probst. You can hear them say, "Ready?" and "Yeah, hit his ass."

Moments later, the driver crashed into Probst, causing him to fly up onto the windshield before tumbling to the ground.

Probst was rushed to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. He reportedly moved to Vegas after retiring as chief from California's Bell Police Department in 2009.
The teens fled, but the driver was soon arrested for the hit-and-run. The charges were later upgraded to include murder when the video recently surfaced online, showing the crime was intentional.

El drama se desarrolló el 30 de agosto en L.A. Crypto.com Arena, y en la llamada de emergencia obtenida por TMZ Hip Hop, un operador estaba bastante sorprendido al escuchar que alguien había sufrido un trauma contundente a causa de un micrófono.

Como informamos, el micrófono le cayó a Bryhana Monegain de Power 106 en la frente, y la dejó sangrando profusamente ... lo que provocó la llamada al 911. No está claro qué tendría de relevante para la lesión, pero, por alguna razón, el despachador preguntó: "¿Quién actúa esta noche?".

A pesar de la pregunta desenfadada, el operador se aseguró de enviar asistencia médica al lugar de inmediato. Para ser justos, también preguntó si Bryhana estaba despierta.

Resulta que Bryhana sufrió múltiples laceraciones en la cabeza y la cara tras ser golpeada con el micrófono.

Al parecer, el aparato no funcionaba correctamente y 50 lo tiró con rabia...pero puede que acabe arrepintiéndose.

Fuentes policiales nos dicen que han completado su investigación, y el caso está ahora en la oficina del Fiscal de Distrito del Condado de Los Ángeles siendo revisado por posibles cargos de delito grave.

The saying, "keep your eye on the prize" comes to mind when ya hear the 911 audio from 50 Cent's hurled mic incident -- although a radio DJ suffered a head injury, the dispatcher wanted to know who was performing.

The drama unfolded on August 30 at L.A.'s Crypto.com Arena, and on the emergency call obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, a dispatcher is quite surprised to hear someone had suffered blunt forced trauma ... from a microphone of all things

As we reported, the mic smashed Power 106's Bryhana Monegain square in the forehead, and left her bleeding profusely ... prompting the call to 911. It's unclear why it would be relevant to the injury, but, for some reason, the dispatcher inquired ... "Who's performing tonight?"

Despite the lighthearted query, the dispatcher was sure to send medical assistance to the scene right away. To be fair, he did also ask if Bryhana was awake.

As it turns out, Bryhana suffered multiple lacerations to the head and face after being decked with the mic.

The device apparently had been malfunctioning, and 50 chucked the thing in anger ... but he might end up seriously regretting that.

Law enforcement sources tell us police have completed their investigation, and the case is now at the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office being reviewed for possible felony charges.

MGM properties are still reeling from a cyberattack which sent some of Las Vegas' biggest hotels into disarray ... but that's not stopping Sin City's heavyweight performers, who are full steam ahead this weekend.

Bill Maher is doing stand-up this weekend at the MGM Grand -- where check-out lines have been as far as the eye can see as a result of the cyberattack -- but a rep for Bill tells us his Friday and Saturday shows are still going on as planned.

Cirque Du Soleil -- a Vegas staple -- has shows at a number of MGM properties including the Grand, Bellagio and Mandalay Bay ... and a rep tells us they're all a go for this weekend.

As for other Vegas acts outside MGM hotels ... we're hearing they're not sweating the cyberattack. Shows for Magic Mike Live at SAHARA, Chris Angel MINDFREAK at Planet Hollywood and Murray The Magician at Tropicana are all on this weekend.

As we reported ... the cyberattack hit MGM resorts Monday, blocking guests from getting into their rooms, wreaking havoc on casino slot machines, downing phone lines and shutting down hotel check-ins.

MGM says a "cybersecurity issue" is affecting the company's systems and the company is working with "leading external cybersecurity experts" to get things under control, but everything has yet to be fixed.

Hacker groups including ALPHV and The Scattered Spider are claiming responsibility for the attack, though MGM has yet to confirm. Still, experts say the problems the resorts are facing show all the signs of a cyberattack.
