Man Dies After Being Thrown From Los Angeles, California Party Bus.

Posted on October 2, 2013 by gil hoy

A young man died in a tragic bus accident when he was thrown from a party bus in which he was riding and struck by vehicle on Highway 101 near Universal Studios in Los Angeles, California.

C.J. Saraceno, 24, reportedly was at the front of the party bus changing the music just after midnight on Sunday, September 29, when the bus turned, causing him to be propelled through the bus door and onto the highway.

Approximately 23 people were riding in the bus at the time that Saraceno was ejected. It is unclear at this point how fast the bus was traveling at the time.

Members of the California Highway Patrol are currently investigating the fatal motor vehicle accident.  They have not criminally charged anyone in the unfortunate bus accident.

According to Saraceno’s father, Saraceno is originally from Connecticut and had moved to Los Angeles just two years ago.

Indian Couple Killed in So-Called Honor Killing for “Wrong Caste” Relationship.

Posted on September 27, 2013 by gil hoy

A young couple in India has been killed by their relatives in a brutal “honor killing,” after the young man and woman refused to cease their relationship despite disapproval from clan elders.

23 year-old Dharmender Barak and his 20 year-old girlfriend Nidhi escaped from their parents’ homes in Ghanavati village, only 40 miles away from Delhi. Dharmender was a computer technology student. Nidhi studied art. The couple had been together for several years during which they received warnings from their families and friends about their relationship.

Dharmender and Nidhi come from the same sub-group of a caste, which according to the village elders makes their romantic relationship equal to incest, and therefore forbidden. The couple ran away from the village in fear for their lives, but the parents of the couple called them back with promises of safety and acceptance. In the meantime, the parents had appealed to the local political administrators for permission to carry out an “honor killing” of the couple.

Shortly after Dharmender and Nidhi returned to the village, Nidhi’s father assisted by friends took the couple out into the street and beat them to death, as neighbors stood by and watched. Nidhi’s body was cremated in a nearby field, while Dharmender’s body was broken. He was subsequently beheaded and dumped outside of his family’s home.

Local police have made four arrests in the case on suspicion of first-degree murder. A deputy Superintendent of Police in the region stated that further arrests are likely as the investigation of this horrendous crime continues.

India is the site of over 1000 honor killings every year, which mainly result from breaking of the caste rules in personal relationships.

Toddler Attacked by Pit Bull/Rottweiler Mix in Houston, Texas.

Posted on September 23, 2013 by gil hoy

On August 27, 2013, a 4 year-old boy ran inside to tell his mother that his little brother was “dead.” Rushing outside, the boy’s mother witnessed every parent’s worst nightmare. Her youngest child, a 2 year-old, was lying on the ground outside covered in blood. The neighbor’s dog, a pit bull/Rottweiler mix, was standing off-leash just a few yards away, its mouth soaked in blood.

Luckily, the toddler survived the dog attack. The boy required several stitches, however, to close multiple severe lacerations that covered half of his head. The wounds extended from his cheek, and up across his forehead and scalp. He also required stitches for several bite wounds on his back.

According to the owner of the dog, Anthony Donnell Ruff of Houston, Texas, he had just let the dog outside before the attack occurred. He claims the dog always ran around the corner to use the bathroom, and would run right back. But for some reason, on this occasion, the animal made straight for the toddler instead. On this day, his 8 year-old stepson accompanied the dog outside. Both Ruff and the child insist that the dog is typically friendly and had no history of aggression.

Ruff was criminally charged with dog attack and failure to secure a dog, a felony in Texas. He was released on Tuesday morning on $5,000 bail.
