A driver who became embroiled in a dispute with partygoers after they accused him of speeding, sprayed bullets into the crowd—but was shot to death by one of the revelers. The shootout happened at around 10:45 p.m. on Wednesday night (May 25) at an apartment complex on Renaissance Circle in Charleston, West Virginia. Charleston Police Department say several people had confronted Dennis Butler, 37, over claims he had driven dangerously through the area while children were playing outside, according to local news channel WSAZ. The police report, seen by WSAZ, says Butler left the area but then returned shortly afterwards with an AR 15-style rifle and started shooting at the group. A woman who was attending the joint-birthday and graduation party drew a pistol to return fire and fatally injured Butler, who was shot multiple times, the report said.

India’s GDP to take a big hit due to pandemic-linked learning losses for students: ADB study
The gross domestic product (GDP) of India, which is among the countries with the longest school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic, would see the highest decline in South Asia due to learning losses for the young, a new working paper published by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) has reckoned. Starting with a $10.5 billion dent in 2023, the country’s economy could take a nearly $99 billion hit by 2030, translating into a 3.19% reduction in GDP from the baseline growth trends, according to the paper on ‘Potential Economic Impact of COVID-19 related School Closures’. India may thus account for over 10% of the global GDP decline of $943 billion estimated by the ADB on account of earning losses in 2030, with jobs for skilled labour expected to decline by 1%, and unskilled labour by 2% that year. “India has notable enrolment in secondary education and among students in rural areas. Pandemic-induced school closures have also been more extensive there,” the paper noted.

UK Introduces ‘Yellow Card’ to Record Potential Side Effects of Vaccine as Britians Report Flatulence, Losing Teeth
COVID-19 vaccination seems to be a little disappointing for the British, who are claiming that it is making them lose teeth, develop flatulence and leaving them screaming, yawning or crying after the jab. The UK’s drug regulator, responsible for the safety of the Covid-19 vaccine, has reported bizarre side effects after Brits took AstraZeneca’s coronavirus vaccine. Officials have urged the public to report any health issues they have faced after the jabs resulting in a 65-page document of alleged side-effects. Teething, rare blood clots and crying have been reported to be some of the many odd side effects. Last week, 11 European nations halted the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccination driv e after a number of people developed blood clot on receiving the dose. However, on March 18, the European Medicines Agency declared the vaccine to be ‘safe and effective, putting the issue to rest and these countries resumed their rollout. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) … [Read more...] about UK Introduces ‘Yellow Card’ to Record Potential Side Effects of Vaccine as Britians Report Flatulence, Losing Teeth

Brit becomes first person to swim through shark-infested waters around Grand Cayman
A British plasterer endured 60 miles in shark-infested water to become the first person to swim around the island of Grand Cayman. Eco warrior Oly Rush, 37, finished the circumnavigation of the Caribbean isle in just under 37 hours. He was later taken to hospital suffering from dehydration. Oly, from Poole, Dorset, said: “I got round but it was absolutely brutal. "It was so difficult and we took the threat of sharks very seriously.” He partnered with Plastic Free Cayman and Project Planet for the endurance swim, which has so far raised more than £18,000 to combat sea pollution. Oly said: “It took me to some dark places but I was never going to quit because I was so motivated by the environmental cause.” Last year, Oly smashed the 65-mile round-the-Isle-of-Wight record but said Cayman was far harder.

Man dies of heart attack while digging grave to bury woman he strangled
A man is accused of strangling a woman he lived with before dying of a heart attack as he tried to bury her in their back garden. Joseph Anthony McKinnon was found dead at his home in Trenton, USA by police who were called after witnesses spotted an "unresponsive male" in the garden. The 60-year-old, who officers say likely died of a heart attack, was found close to a second body which had been dumped in a freshly dug makeshift grave. Officers from Edgefield County said their investigation confirmed the dead woman to be 65-year-old Patricia Ruth Dent, who lived with Mr McKinnon. A post mortem revealed that she died by strangulation. The sheriff said: “Mr McKinnon then bound her and wrapped her in trash bags before putting her in the previously dug pit." Evidence gathered at the scene along with statements from witnesses are helping investigators to build a timeline. Sheriff’s officials believe Mr McKinnon attacked the woman in their home. In Australia, a man is on trial … [Read more...] about Man dies of heart attack while digging grave to bury woman he strangled
