Transportation Security Administration, the federal agency in charge of airline safety, reports catching a record 4,650 firearms at checkpoints in the first 10 months of the year, a majority of which were loaded.
The number surpasses the total-year record of 4,432 set in 2019, according to CNN.
TSA Administrator David Pekoske told CNN that air travelers are bringing guns to airports in unprecedented numbers, which he described as a “huge problem.”
Passengers are allowed to fly with a gun but it must be secure and transported in an aircraft’s cargo bay.
He also said the high number of disorderly air travelers, planes and at airport checkpoints, “makes it more important that there are no guns involved.”
Most of the firearms found were loaded – more than 3,900, or more than 80%, CNN also reports.
Pekoske speculated the number of confiscated weapons reflects a U.S. population that is increasingly armed.
“Whatever is happening across the country we see reflected in our checkpoints,” he said.

Three Juvenile Escapees And Security Guard Captured In Houston After Going Missing

Three juvenile escapees have been caught. The security guard who assisted them with fleeing from the Ware Youth Center was captured, too. They were located at a motel, in Texas, after go ing missing.
The group had been traveling in a 2010 Pontiac G6.
The Red River Parish Sheriff’s Office, in Louisiana, stated that the teens got away, close to 3 a.m., on Saturday. They say that Victoria Tune, a 21-year-old WYC security guard, helped them.
Tyjuan Lafitte, 17, Jeremiah Durham, 15, and Na’Varaya Lane, 17, were named as the escapees.
All of the teens had been in custody in relation to violent felony crimes. Lafitte was charged with attempted first-degree murder, Durham armed robbery, and Lane attempted second-degree murder.
Officers with Houston’s Police Department had been keeping watch on Tune’s vehicle used in the escape. It had been parked at a hotel for multiple hours. Once Tune, the escapees, and a family member of an escapee went back to the vehicle, they were arrested.
The escapees and Tune will be extradited back to Louisiana. More charges will come as a result of the escape. Tune will be charged with three counts of accessory to simple escape, officials say.

Man Awarded $10 Million Settlement After Becoming Paralyzed From Police Encounter

Eight years ago, a man became paralyzed after an encounter with police in New Jersey.
Now, Camden County has agreed to pay him a $10 million settlement. This came after Xavier Ingram filed a lawsuit against Camden County, its police department, and certain officers.
A trial was held in March but no decision was made as jurors weren’t able to come up with a unanimous agreement.
Ingram, who’s Black, is a paraplegic, living in a nursing home. He spoke during the court hearing from his hospital bed.
Before a new trial was about to start, a settlement in the case was reached. It still requires a federal judge’s approval.
“Mr. Ingram requires better medical care and quality of life that he no longer wishes to delay. It’s in his best interest to bring this litigation to a close…,” said Beth Baldinger, his lawyer.
In June 2014, Ingram, who was 20 at the time, was confronted by officers who walked up to him outside of a store in Camden. As he was fleeing from officers, Ingram fell and officers handcuffed him and held him down on the ground.
One officer stepped on his neck, pushing him down aggressively. Ingram noted that none of the officers gave him the proper medical care. This was needed after he yelled that he couldn’t feel his arms or legs.
Ingram’s attorney says that he ran because he had an outstanding warrant for a motor vehicle violation and didn’t want to be arrested.
Police claim that Ingram was injured when he ran and fell. They say he fled because he had a stolen gun and drugs on him. Ingram has stated that he wasn’t in possession of a gun.
A Camden County spokesperson released a statement on the matter.
“Based on the settlement, the county maintains, and continues to maintain, that no wrongdoing took place and is not liable for any of the actions and circumstances of the aforementioned incident.”

‘Slutty Vegan’ Founder Gifts All Clark Atlanta University Graduates Of 2022 With Their Own LLC

Aisha “Pinky” Cole is a restaurant owner in Atlanta, Georgia. On Saturday, she gifted 800 graduates, from her alma mater, Clark Atlanta University, with a jumpstart to opening their own business.
The Slutty Vegan CEO addressed the Class of 2022 during their commencement exercises. She then gave the whole class a limited liability company, or LLC.
“I partnered with Varo Bank to provide every single graduate in this audience with a new LLC and a path to entrepreneurship. Every single graduate in this audience will leave this stadium as a business owner,” she declared.
In 2009, Cole graduated from CAU after studying mass communication/media. She was also previously named Miss Clark Atlanta and was initiated into Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
“Pinky Cole had a business and lost everything. My car got repo’d, got kicked out of my house, went flat broke, almost lost my mind. Almost four years later, she now owns and operates a $100 million vegan brand. She found aspirations in those losses. You think I was gonna give up because of some failure? Hell no! And neither will you,” Cole said as she spoke to the graduates.
“…the class of 2022. I want you to fail…fail so hard you become an expert in failure and you get a PhD in failology. I want you to fail because failing is not failing at all. It is finding aspiration in the losses.”
It is reported that the LLCs that were purchased costs about $400,000.
Cole has a nonprofit, the Pinky Cole Foundation, which strives to empower future generations by providing financial literacy support and entrepreneurship training.
