Well, Good Morning!
Let's take a look at what the day has in store for us.
So, let's dig in, shall we?
Here's What You Need To Know... Heroic officer catches 1-month-old baby thrown from 2nd-floor balcony When it comes to the safety of children, very few people mess around. Especially when those children happen to be newborns barely one month old. In New Jersey, police responded to a call of a child in danger and found a man threatening to throw the baby from the second story of the building. Police quickly set up a perimeter to begin negotiations, but the man eventually dropped the baby.
Thankfully, Officer Eduardo Matute caught the baby, saving him or her from almost certain death. The baby was not physically harmed and was later reunited with Officer Matute at the hospital, where he or she was taken as a precaution and later discharged.
Although the world is rife with horror, it's good to be reminded there are still good people committed to heroic acts of bravery and compassion. However corrupt society at large may become, individuals still make headlines for their good deeds. Take, for another example, the brave officer who saved a four-month-old baby during the devastating Times Square shooting in May — bolting down Broadway with the baby in her arms as gunfire broke out.
It's not all doom and gloom in the news cycle… though there are still some updates to be aware of below.
SpaceX's first all-civilian launch into space is a success... Inspiration4 mission splashes down safely in the Atlantic Ocean this weekend Just after 7 p.m. on Saturday, the SpaceX Inspiration4 mission culminated in the Resilience capsule's safe splash down in the Atlantic Ocean. The spacecraft had orbited the Earth about 45 times over the course of three days, and it had traveled higher than even the International Space Station. Most notable was that it contained a four-person crew made entirely of civilians with no prior space experience (aside from what they learned in commercial training). The mission commander, Jared Isaacman, said, "That was a heck of a ride for us."
After the capsule's safe landing off Cape Canaveral, a recovery ship retrieved the vessel, and the newly-minted astronauts got out, giving thumbs-up signs to those gathered around them. They then took a helicopter back to Kennedy Space Center. Although the crew did run into some minor "issues" while they were 590 kilometers above the Earth's surface, they were still "in great spirits" upon their return. For instance, there was some kind of problem with the toilet while they were away.
And the greatest goal of the mission — to raise $200 million for the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital — was also met this weekend. Prior to the launch, Commander Jared Isaacman had donated $100 million to his cause. And another $60.2 million was donated from other sources. Elon Musk said that he'd throw in another $50 million, making the mission's grand total increase to over $210 million.
Gabby Petito might have just been found, but her boyfriend has disappeared At the Seven at 7, we've been following Gabby Petito's saga closely. Last seen heading toward Yellowstone National Park from Utah, Petito was road tripping with her boyfriend Brian Laundrie. When he returned home without Petito, the alarm went out — she was listed as a missing person and the FBI swiftly became involved.
The van the couple had been traveling in was found at the home shared by Petito, Laundrie, and Laundrie's parents in Florida. Laundrie refused to speak to police about where he last saw Petito, and quickly lawyered up — which does, on its own, seem suspicious. But if Laundrie is innocent, this was a smart move since he would be at the top of any detective's suspect list.
Now, human remains matching her description were found in Teton County, Wyoming — specifically in Grand Teton National Park, Petito's last known location. Authorities will have to conduct a DNA test to be sure of the body's identity. No apparent cause of death has yet been released.
Meanwhile, in the suspicious acts to end all suspicious acts, Brian Laundrie has up and vanished from his home in Florida. Although he is not wanted for a crime, Laundrie is a person of interest in Petito's case. During their cross-country trip, police were at one point called for a domestic violence incident. The couple was advised to separate for a few nights and the officer felt otherwise comfortable leaving them alone — so what happened to Gabby Petito?
