Despite the woman repeatedly shouting at the bear «No! Go away» and making loud noises to scare it away, it continued to follow her down the road.

After at first slowly moving toward her, the bear suddenly started charging, circling her as she kept backing away and screaming for it to leave them alone.

For nearly two agonizing minutes, the bear runs toward her then backs away, rearing up on its hind legs several times, revealing its massive size.

The woman stayed calm during the encounter and didn’t run from the bear until it had moved away from her.

Experts say to never run from a bear because it can trigger their predatory instincts and bears can outrun humans at up to 35 mph.

Three people were eventually arrested in connection with his death and later released. A coroner on Thursday ruled Brown’s death a «tragic accident.»

Investigators believe Brown, who authorities said had alcohol dependence issues, fell into a deep sleep and put his weight on his bag, resulting in the knife piercing his body.

The blade penetrated the bag and all three layers of Brown’s clothing, slashing his arm and leaving him to bleed out as he slept, authorities said.

Brown’s alcoholism made him vulnerable to blood loss, experts said at a court hearing.

Northamptonshire Police dropped the murder inquiry in February, saying Brown’s death was likely self-inflicted. Investigators noted that there was no apparent motive to murder Brown.

«We have reviewed the extensive amount of information gathered as part of the investigation, including all forensic submissions, and can confirm the evidence does not support the hypothesis that his death was a homicide,» police said at the time.

Solidaridad en Venezuela: grupos de ayuda cocinan pizza, lasaña, distribuyen agua y comida en medio del desastre

Published

on


Cuando el equipo de Clarín desembarcó en el aeropuerto de Maracaibo, este viernes por la tarde, lo recibió un calor intenso y húmedo, y una nube de gente, otros periodistas y televisores encendidos con el mundial de fútbol incluso en las zonas para el retiro de las valijas. Ese bullicio se combinaba con los comentarios de todos por el horror creciente que envuelve ahora a Venezuela.

El personal de seguridad y aduana se comportó con enorme amabilidad, sin las desconfianzas de otros momentos que en general se percibía en los ingresos al país. Incluso cuando vieron los pasaportes argentinos los agentes lanzaron algún comentario sonriente sobre Lionel Messi y el seleccionado. Solo nos retiraron el dron porque está legislado en el país la prohibición del uso de estos aparatos, con excepción de las autoridades. Lo devolverán cuando salgamos, prometieron.

Este aeropuerto releva al internacional de Maiquetía, vecino de Caracas que sufrió graves daños. Parte de su techo se desprendió y debió ser cancelado. Para llegar aquí el equipo de Clarín debió viajar a Brasil de allí conectar a Panamá y luego con otro vuelo a Venezuela.

En Maracaibo, a 700 kilómetros de la capital, los edificios soportaron bien los dos terremotos consecutivos de 7,2 y 7,5 en la escala Richter, pero igual se palpa desesperación.

En los diálogos con la gente, en la recorrida por la ciudad, se percibía la ansiedad por la búsqueda de familiares que aún no responden y forman parte de la enorme lista de desaparecidos que ronda los 50.000 ya. La percepción de todos es que este drama se saldará con una enorme cifra de víctimas fatales. En muchos casos ese sentimiento y desesperación es canalizado en aceleradas muestras de solidaridad.

Brigada de ayuda

Las redes sociales, tantas veces usadas para expresar críticas políticas, que acababan en represiones, ahora son el punto de encuentro para organizar la ayuda.

“Necesitamos voluntarios. Urgente: convocatoria de personal. Médicos y enfermeros, veterinarios, paramédicos, rescatistas. Interesados, por favor se pongan en contacto. Viaje inmediato a Caracas”, dice uno de los flyers y debajo aparece un número de WhatsApp.

Clarín recorrió algunos de los puntos donde la gente reúne agua, productos de limpieza, alimentos para acopiar y enviar a Caracas pero especialmente a La Guaira, la ciudad costera cercana a Maiquetía, que quedó destruida y donde se acumula la mayor parte de las víctimas de este desastre sin precedentes en el país caribeño.

Un grupo grande de autoconvocados se organizó en la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad Zulia. Maracaibo es la capital de este estado, el centro petrolero venezolano. Nos dicen que son más de noventa personas entre estudiantes de medicina, médicos, estudiantes de enfermería, enfermeras, y personal del hospital universitario de Maracaibo que se han sumado a esta brigada de ayuda con equipos que se van coordinando.

“Juntamos comida, insumos, ropa. Vamos en tres micros desde Maracaibo a Caracas y La Guaira. Mañana salen más grupos”, remarca a este cronista Cleidy Hidalgo, organizadora de los autoconvocados de la Facultad de Medicina.

En las colectas locales también participa la Iglesia Católica. “La arquidiócesis de Maracaibo, junto a la parroquia Nuestra Señora del Carmen y el Complejo Educativo San Antonio nos unimos para brindar apoyo a nuestros hermanos”, dice uno de los mensajes que se publica en pantallas y pequeños volantes en la muy calurosa Maracaibo.

Esa sede católica ahora funciona como un centro de acopio de alimentos no perecederos, agua potable, mantas, linternas, velas y artículos de primeros auxilios. En la misma línea, el Centro Comercial Gran Bazar de la ciudad también oficia ahora es un lugar para recibir donaciones.

Atilio, dueño de una pizzería en el coqueto barrio de Altamira, en Caracas, de paso en esta ciudad, es uno de los colaboradores a su manera de la solidaridad colectiva. “Hicimos 150 pizzas y 100 pastichos (lasaña italiana). Lo llevamos para repartir entre los rescatistas de Palos Grandes, donde se han caído edificios, y trabajan sin parar para rescatar a personas con vida”, dice. Prefiere no dar el nombre de su local, justamente por el espíritu solidario que afloró entre los venezolanos.

Voces bajo los escombros

El otro fenómeno son los videos de venezolanos que piden ayuda porque aún escuchan las voces de sus familiares debajo de las ruinas. Durante el feriado por la conmemoración de la Batalla de Carabobo, sus departamentos se convirtieron en trampas.

«Las primeras 72 horas son críticas para poder salvar vidas, por lo que se han intensificado las operaciones de búsqueda, rescate y salvamento, ampliadas con el apoyo internacional que está llegando a nuestro país”, subrayó este viernes el embajador venezolano ante la ONU en Ginebra, Alexander Yánez.

«Toda forma de solidaridad material y moral resulta esencial en estos críticos momentos”, señaló. Ese comentario lo repetía la televisión estatal venezolana que conecta entre el fútbol y los informes sobre la crisis.

Tregua política

El volumen de la catástrofe humanitaria por los dos terremotos consecutivos en Venezuela parece haber pausado las diferencias políticas internacionales. Con una situación que empeora con el pasar de las horas, se multiplicó la colaboración de distintos países, varios críticos del régimen.

En distintos aeropuertos habilitados de Venezuela, entre ellos particularmente el de esta ciudad, han aterrizado vuelos con ayuda, rescatistas, transporte militar de países como Alemania, El Salvador, México, Chile, España y Suiza. También prometieron colaboración Estados Unidos, China, Qatar, Brasil, Portugal y Canadá, además de Argentina.

Al menos 16 países han comenzado a enviar equipos de búsqueda y rescate para ayudar a buscar víctimas de entre los escombros, con 25 equipos que suman más de un millar de rescatistas. Cada minuto cuenta, en una cuenta contrarreloj que tiene a miles de personas pendientes dentro y fuera de Venezuela.

‘Damning silence’: Swing-seat Democrat stays quiet after AOC voices support

Published

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

A Democratic House hopeful vying for one of the nation’s most competitive districts is staying silent after Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., voiced support for her campaign.

Ocasio-Cortez, a leftist firebrand with growing influence in the Democratic Party, congratulated former Biden administration official Cait Conley on her primary victory in a social media post Wednesday.

«I look forward to working together as a delegation as we fight for working families across New York,» Ocasio-Cortez wrote.  

The post also celebrated a Democrat vying to succeed retiring Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., alongside three socialist candidates backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

RISING SOCIALIST STARS ON TRACK TO CONGRESS: WHO ARE DARIALIZA AVILA CHEVALIER, BRAD LANDER AND CLAIRE VALDEZ?

Conley has yet to comment on Ocasio-Cortez’s support or address the trio of far-left candidates — longtime New York official Brad Lander, state Assembly member Claire Valdez, D-N.Y., and activist Darializa Avila-Chevalier — who have called for abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), are outspoken critics of Israel and have vowed to advance the Palestinian cause in Congress.

Conley’s general election opponent, Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., insists she should have to answer for it.

«Which is it, Cait: do you reject AOC and the candidates who want to abolish ICE, defund the police, and tear down our borders, or do you embrace them?» Lawler’s campaign manager Ciro Riccardi said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

«The Hudson Valley deserves an answer, and so far all we’ve heard is your damning silence,» he continued.

Lander and Avila-Chevalier previously called for defunding the police, while the latter has continued to advocate for abolishing prisons and stopping all deportations. Avila-Chevalier also reposted a tweet denying Israel’s right to exist and helped form a pro-Palestinian group at Columbia University that called for «the total eradication of Western civilization.»

The three Mamdani-backed candidates are expected to double the ranks of the left-wing group known as the «Squad,» an informal bloc closely aligned with Ocasio-Cortez, who also supports abolishing ICE. 

Fox News Digital reached out to the Conley campaign for comment.

The scrutiny comes after Conley avoided criticizing the socialist candidates during an interview with MS NOW on Thursday.

Asked about socialist candidates who support prison abolition and have suggested the United States deserved 9/11, Conley talked about her own background rather than directly addressing the question.

«I joined the Army and went to West Point because of 9/11 because I watched the suffering and pain that we as a nation, we as a state, we as the Hudson Valley, experienced that day,» Conley said. «And so when you talk about the American government’s responsibility to the people, it is to keep it safe.»

«While, you know, folks were elected down in New York City, in New York-17, Democratic voters chose a West Point grad and 16-year Army combat veteran to be their representative in this fight this fall,» Conley added, referring to herself.

Aber Kawas, a socialist and pro-Palestinian activist who won a Democratic primary for a New York State Senate seat Tuesday, appeared to justify 9/11 in a resurfaced 2017 video.

Conley has previously faced scrutiny over her role on former President Joe Biden’s national security team. Lawler has argued that she downplayed her alleged involvement in the former president’s botched 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal, which coincided with her time on the National Security Council.

The battleground race is expected to be one of the most hotly-contested races in the country, with national Republicans expected to aggressively defend Lawler’s bid for a third House term.

The nonpartisan Cook Political Report rates the contest as a «toss-up» after shifting the race in favor of Democrats earlier this year.
