"I know a lot of people are still shaken up by just being in an earthquake," Howard said.

Échale un vistazo a estas imágenes que se tomaron el domingo por la noche en Hillsboro, Oregón, donde una señora corrió hasta la casa de un extraño (escapando de alguien) y trató de tocar el timbre antes de que un tipo apareció de la nada y la agarró de los brazos, arrastrándola lejos mientras ella gritaba pidiendo ayuda.

Robert Kraft graduated from Columbia in '63, and has been a huge proponent of the school in every way, including financially ... but all that changed Monday when the billionaire Patriots owner made it clear he wasn't going to stand by and watch his University be taken over by hate and vitriol.

"The school I love so much - the one that welcomed me and provided me with so much opportunity - is no longer an institution I recognize," 82-year-old Kraft said in a statement released by Stand Up To Jewish Hate, adding, "I am deeply saddened at the virulent hate that continues to grow on campus and throughout our country."

Of course, since mid-last week, students and others have taken to Columbia's NYC campus to demand the University sever all ties to Israel. Some protestors have been seen showing support for Hamas and their actions on October 7, even calling for repeated attacks.

Prince Harry has officially cut the cord with his British roots after years of royal tension ... making it loud and clear he's sticking with the U.S. for the long haul, and calling it home.

The Duke of Sussex updated his country of residence in new paperwork filed with Companies House, which was required for his eco-tourism nonprofit, Travalyst. Whereas he used to claim the United Kingdom as his home base ... that's now changed to America.

Un hombre de Ohio, quien aparentemente pensó que estaba involucrado en un elaborado complot para estafarlo, ha sido acusado de dispararle fatalmente a una conductora de Uber, quien también había sido engañada, por cierto.

Según los informes, William Brock, de 81 años, le dijo a las autoridades en el condado de Clark que le disparó a Loletha Hall, de 61 años, afuera de su casa el 25 de marzo, pero se defendió diciendo que solo lo hizo pues pensaba que estaba trabajando con alguien que le había exigido un rescate monetario.

Cuento corto, Brock había sido contactado por unos estafadores, que comenzaron diciéndole que tenía que soltar miles de dólares porque un pariente estaba en la cárcel y luego convirtieron el caso en un rescate de rehenes, que dejó a Brock confundido.

An Ohio man has been charged in the fatal shooting of an Uber driver, whom he reportedly thought was involved in an elaborate plot to scam him ... and ditto for the woman, BTW.

Per reports, 81-year-old William Brock told authorities in Clark County that he shot 61-year-old Loletha Hall outside his home on March 25 ... but defended himself, saying he only did so because he believed she was working with someone who'd demanded a ransom from him.

Long story short, Brock had been getting contacted of late by scammers -- who started out by telling him he had to cough up thousands of dollars because some relative was in jail ... which then turned into a straight-up ransom/hostage call, which left Brock confused/rattled.

Riley Strain's mom claims her son complained about his drink not tasting right ahead of his disappearance and subsequent death ... and the implication is that he was roofied.

Michelle says Riley claimed the beverage tasted like barbecue ... reiterating it was not an enjoyable cocktail. Michelle says she told Riley he probably shouldn't be drinking it then.
