3:31 PM PT -- A judge has signed an order requiring Aaron to return Denise's personal phone and laptop within 48 hours ... Aaron is also prohibited from distributing any images of Denise's intimate body parts.

Denise Richards' divorce from Aaron Phypers is getting even messier ... because she's now claiming he violated her restraining order against him and stole her laptop containing nude photos.

In new court docs filed Monday ... Denise says Aaron violated the temporary restraining order by "disturbing her peace" when he sent her private information to the media from her laptop -- namely text messages and naked pics. She's asking the judge to order Aaron to return the laptop and all of its pictures and recordings, along with any cell phones he may have of hers.

She's asking for him to turn the items over to her lawyer, and she'll pick them up from him.

Denise also wants Aaron to be "prohibited from using, delivering, copying, printing, or disclosing any text messages, emails, photos, notes or other content from my cell phone or laptop or any other of my electronic devices."

Midtown Manhattan was plunged into panic on the evening of July 28, 2025, when a lone gunman entered a Park Avenue skyscraper and opened fire, killing four people and wounding another individual ... before the shooter died by suicide, ending the rampage.

The suspect in the incident was identified as Shane Tamura, who allegedly drove across the country in order to carry out the shocking attack.

We're going to take a look at the background of the gunman and see what led up to the violent incident.

Tamura spent his teenage years in Southern California, where he attended Golden Valley High School in Santa Clarita before transferring to Granada Hills Charter High School.

The suspect joined the latter school's football team, and its former assistant coach, Walter Roby, described him to Fox 11 as "a quiet, hard worker" who led others through "his actions on the field."

One of Tamura's former classmates and teammates, Caleb Clarke, claimed the suspect was "a jokester" in high school and added he "never would have thought violence was something you’d associate with" the alleged suspect in their early years, according to NBC News.

Clarke said a future in athletics was "definitely on the table" for his former classmate, who had apparently become aware of his peers "telling him how great he was."

Tamura entered the security industry after leaving high school, and he later moved to Las Vegas, where he was employed in the surveillance department at the Horseshoe Hotel and Casino at the time he undertook his trip to NYC, according to ABC News.

The suspect had a concealed firearms permit, which was found at the scene of the shooting. It was issued in 2022, and it was set to expire in 2027.

He also received a private-investigator license in Nevada in 2019 -- although it eventually expired, according to CNN.

Tamura had two Mental Health Crisis Holds in Nevada in 2022 and 2024. The holds generally allow for an individual to be held for up to 72 hours if they're found to be a potential danger to themselves or other people.

Tamura's vehicle had been driven across the country prior to the mass shooting, and a BMW he exited in Manhattan was registered in his name in Nevada.

The car passed through Colorado on Saturday, July 26, made it to Iowa the following day ... and it was in Columbia, New Jersey just a few hours before the shootings.

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch stated officials found a loaded revolver, ammunition, a rifle case with rounds, and multiple magazines in the vehicle, according to the New York Post.

In addition to the weapon and the ammunition, medication prescribed to Tamura was also found in the car.

Police found Tamura had a note on him claiming he'd been suffering from the effects of CTE, or Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, according to the New York Post.

The disease is typically found in individuals with lengthy histories of repeated head impacts, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Tamura made a reference to former NFL player Terry Long, who was posthumously diagnosed with the condition after drinking antifreeze, in his note, where he also claimed the league "failed us."

Tamura alleged the NFL "knowingly concealed the dangers to our brains to maximize profits" despite having never played professional football at any point in the past.

Diddy is taking another bite at the apple ... because his legal team just filed a new motion for bail ... and they say he's the only man in America behind bars for hiring male sex workers to bang his girlfriend.

Police took out an arrest warrant for Bhagwagar and got tipped off that he was flying into San Francisco International Airport last night.

With the help of federal authorities, Contra Costa investigators met the plane at the Delta terminal and arrested Bhagwagar on the spot. Bhagwagar was taken to the county jail and booked on five counts of oral copulation with a child under 10 years of age. He is being held on $5 million bail.

The state of Michigan was shocked to its core when a stabbing attack was carried out at a Walmart location in Traverse City in late July 2025.

Although the attack ended quickly and without any fatalities, the legal troubles for the suspected attacker, Bradford James Gille, are just beginning.

We're going to check out the background of the individual suspected of carrying out the heinous incident and see what kind of consequences he's looking at.

Gille lives in Afton, Michigan, in Cheboygan County, according to Michigan's MLive.com.

The suspected attacker has been arrested several times in the past for various offenses, including misdemeanor assault and battery and drug possession.

He was also charged with malicious destruction of tombs and memorials, although his charge was dismissed after a judge found him incompetent to stand trial, according to NBC News.

Gille's reportedly done time behind bars for his past actions, as he previously served 49 days in a Florida jail on charges of vandalism.

The stabbing began around 4:40 PM on July 26, when Gille, who was allegedly armed with a 3.5-inch folding knife, allegedly began randomly stabbing patrons of a Walmart in Traverse City, located in the northern part of the state, about 255 miles northwest of Detroit.

A total of 11 individuals -- including six victims over the age of 60 -- were stabbed in the attack.

Several bystanders attempted to subdue the suspect outside, and Marine veteran Derrick Perry drew a gun on Gille and yelled at him to drop the knife allegedly used in the incident ... local authorities arrived and arrested Gille, according to the New York Post.

The victims were later transported to a local hospital in varying conditions, and the Associated Press reported every victim was expected to survive.

Michigan officials were expected to charge Gille with 11 counts of assault with intent to murder, as well as a terrorism charge.

Grand Traverse County Prosecutor Noelle Moeggenberg claimed officials believed the attack was meant to "affect the entire community."
