HOUSTON POLICE INVESTIGATE FATAL SHOOTING OF 17-YEAR-OLD AT VALENTINE’S DAY HOUSE PARTY

7-month-old girl killed by stray bullet in Brooklyn shooting, police say

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

A 7-month-old baby girl was killed by a stray bullet Wednesday afternoon when a gunman on a moped opened fire on a Brooklyn street, police said.

According to the New York City Police Department, two individuals on a moped approached the intersection of Moore Street and Humboldt Street in Brooklyn when the individual in the back fired a weapon multiple times, with a stray bullet striking a young girl on the sidewalk.

The NYPD has identified the 7-month-old girl as Kaori Patterson-Moore of Brooklyn. She was pronounced dead at the hospital.

The individuals fled the scene on the moped. The NYPD said one person of interest is in custody, while a manhunt is underway for the second suspect as police ask for the public’s help identifying those involved.

The shooting was believed to be gang-related, and the child was an unintended victim, according to police.

“There are no words that can mend the heartbreak this family is feeling right now,” New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said during a news conference. “A life that had barely begun was taken in an instant.”

The shooting took place around 1:20 p.m. on a street corner where several adults and children were gathered. Police said there were no other injuries connected to the shooting.

Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the moped sped off after the shooting but crashed into an oncoming car two blocks away. Both riders fell off the vehicle, and the impact caused the passenger to lose both his shoes, she added.

One of the men on the moped was injured and taken to the hospital and is in police custody in connection with an unrelated investigation, police said. Investigators believe the man fits the description of the alleged shooter based on his clothing and appearance.

The other man fled and has not been located by police as of Wednesday evening.

No gun has been recovered from the scene, but two shell casings were found, police said.

“This is a terrible day in our city, a tragedy that truly shocks the conscious,” Tisch said at the news conference. “As a mother, I cannot imagine the pain that this family is feeling or the grief that they now carry with them. It is unspeakable.”

Investigators reviewed neighborhood security cameras and tracked the moped’s movement following the shooting, Tisch said.

NYC Underground Railroad passage found and could be threatened by development

MASSIVE INDUSTRIAL SITE UNCOVERED IN UNLIKELY LOCATION AS ARCHAEOLOGISTS CITE ‘ENORMOUS’ POTENTIAL

NYC Underground Railroad passage found and could be threatened by development

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

An Underground Railroad passageway in New York City was recently identified — and is now under potential threat from proposed commercial development, according to advocates.

The passage, found in the Merchant’s House Museum in the NoHo neighborhood of Manhattan, is believed to have been part of a secret network of routes that helped enslaved Black Americans escape to freedom.

The structure is described as “about 2 feet square and secreted beneath a built-in chest of drawers on the second floor, [and] descends 15 feet to the ground floor,” according to a statement from the Merchant’s House Museum.

Though the home dates to 1832, it’s unclear when the passageway was built.

The house, however, was built by an abolitionist, Joseph Brewster — and the hidden passage “serves no known domestic purpose,” according to the museum.

The passageway was first found in the 1930s. Historians did not know until recently that Brewster was an abolitionist.

Museum officials said the analysis of the site took two years of “extensive research” — and now the site is at risk. The building is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The concern is connected to the proposed development of a nine-story mixed-use building that could possibly damage the walls and foundation of the Merchant’s House Museum, according to The Associated Press.

Emily Hill-Wright, the museum’s director of operations, recently told AP that engineers have raised concerns about potential structural damage.

“What our engineers are saying is that there really is no way that a building of that size is built immediately next door to the museum without causing significant structural damage to our historic building,” she said.

Museum officials also said the discovery has brought in more visitors in recent months.

New York City’s Landmarks Preservation Commission is set to make a decision on the development, but members of the community are raising concerns.

In a statement last week, Rev. Al Sharpton warned the site is at risk of “irreversible damage.”

“When engineers tell me that an African American heritage site is in danger of structural compromise or any other sort of irreversible damage, I listen,” Sharpton said in a statement.

The private developer, Kalodop II Park Corp., wants to replace the one-story garage it owns at 27 East 4th St. with a nine-story office building that includes ground-floor space likely to be used for a restaurant or art gallery, as The New York Post reported of the details.

“Bounty hunters were all over the place in New York City.”

The developer had two earlier applications for construction on the lot; the most recent was approved in 2023, the Post also said. But Kalodop never began the construction — and in December submitted new plans for a building that would have two more stories.

Helping enslaved people would have come at a great cost to Brewster, Harlem Historical Society director Jacob Morris told The Associated Press.

“Bounty hunters were all over the place in New York City. They made their living on catching freedom-seeking Blacks,” he said.

Morris added, “If you got caught helping Blacks escape from slavery, a mob could come and burn down your house and beat you up. And maybe even tar and feather you, or worse.”

The passageway discovery is one of many recent archaeological finds involving African American history.

Last June, a South Carolina tourist found “historically significant” remains on Edisto Island, once home to a community of African American sharecroppers.

Also, last summer, archaeologists in Williamsburg, Virginia, dug up artifacts from the oldest surviving schoolhouse for Black children.

Walt Disney World is closing a free parking loophole at Disney Springs

DISNEYLAND MAY SCRAP LONG-STANDING PARK RULE THAT FRUSTRATED VISITORS

Walt Disney World is closing a free parking loophole at Disney Springs

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Walt Disney World is taking steps to close a widely used loophole that allowed visitors to avoid parking fees.

With spring break crowds now surging, the resort has begun restricting access to its complimentary transportation system.

The update effectively ends a long-standing workaround that helped guests skip the $35 parking charge.

For years, some visitors would park for free at Disney Springs, then hop on a bus to a Disney resort hotel before transferring to the park’s internal transportation network to reach the theme parks without paying for parking.

That’s according to the Disney Theme Park news blog, “Inside the Magic.”

That hack is no longer flying. As of late March, Disney has begun limiting bus access to Disney Springs to guests who can prove they are staying at a Disney resort.

Visitors attempting to board are now being asked to show a MagicBand, room key or a digital reservation through the My Disney Experience app. Those without proof are being turned away and directed to standard parking or ride-share options, the blog noted.

The tighter rules are aimed at prioritizing resort guests during one of the busiest times of the year, when demand for transportation spikes.

In the past, the system largely operated on an honor system, allowing non-hotel guests to take advantage of the perk.

Fox News Digital reached out to Walt Disney World for comment.

Users on Reddit began sharing experiences with the new restrictions.

“We tried to hop on a bus to a monorail resort for snacks and drinks, but were told you must have a resort or dining reservation to board,” a user wrote.

Others supported the move, with one person saying, “Love to see Disney finally protecting resort guest perks.”

Yet another person commented that Disney should prioritize the visitors who are paying hundreds of dollars per night to stay on property over those simply visiting for the day.

Fox News Digital previously reported that Disneyland Resort may soon ease one of its long-standing rules that has frustrated visitors, potentially allowing guests to move between its two theme parks at any time of day.

The reported change would apply to visitors with Park Hopper tickets and Magic Key passes.

The park’s rule used to be that visitors were required to wait until 11 a.m. before switching between Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure.

Under the update, guests would still need to enter their reserved starting park first but could hop to the other park afterward, depending on capacity.

BAGGAGE HANDLER SLAMMED AFTER VIRAL VIDEO SHOWS GUITARS VIOLENTLY TOSSED ON TARMAC

Crowd cheers as airport workers finally collapse stubborn baby stroller

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Two baggage handlers went viral after battling a stubborn baby stroller for several long minutes.

The scene unfolded at Kansas City International Airport as travelers watched the struggle from a jet bridge above the tarmac.

Jason Falen, who was waiting to board a flight to Denver, started recording when he realized the two workers were completely baffled by the baby gear.

“I only caught the very end,” Falen told Storyful.

“They had been trying to figure it out for five minutes, and it was comedy gold!”

While the video provided a lighthearted moment, travel expert and former flight attendant Bobby Laurie told Fox News Digital that stroller etiquette at the airport really comes down to “courtesy and preparation.”

“Parents should absolutely be ready to fold their stroller themselves before handing it off to gate agents or ground staff, unless they physically need assistance,” Laurie said.

“Well, there’s two little buttons on the side. Like, does he not see those?” one bystander said just seconds before the workers cracked the code.

When the stroller finally collapsed into the flat position, the waiting crowd erupted into cheers and applause for the workers on the ground.

One of the baggage handlers even joined in, applauding himself for finally winning the “fight” against the stroller before loading it into the plane’s cargo hold.

“Staff are there to help manage the process.”

Laurie warned that because every stroller is different, there’s no guarantee the staff has encountered that particular product before to ensure they can collapse it without damage.

“Staff are there to help manage the process, but they should not be expected to wrestle with unfamiliar gear while boarding is underway,” he added.

To avoid a similar scene, Laurie suggests parents remove all personal items, know how their stroller folds before getting to the gate, and be prepared to do it quickly.

The struggle resonated with parents on Reddit, many of whom admitted they have been outsmarted by their own baby gear.

“One time I was in a parking garage with my baby and I could not close the stroller. I had to watch YouTube videos to figure it out,” one user wrote.

Others agreed that some modern designs are unnecessarily complicated — leading to high-stress moments.

“I’ve sobbed over the exact same issue before,” another user commented.

Birth tourism businesses thrive as Supreme Court weighs citizenship rules

AMERICAN OFFICIALS WARN NIGERIAN WOMEN AGAINST BIRTH TOURISM: ‘THIS IS NOT PERMITTED’

Birth tourism businesses thrive as Supreme Court weighs citizenship rules

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Birth tourism has become big business, as concierge services and others rake in cash assisting foreigners who want to have their babies in the U.S.

The Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments beginning Wednesday on a challenge to President Donald Trump’s Executive Order 14160, which limits birthright citizenship in the U.S.

The term birth tourism in general refers to foreign nationals traveling to another country and giving birth there so that their newborn children can obtain citizenship in that particular country.

A concierge service in South Florida called Have my Baby in Miami provides maternity services that have helped with over 2,000 international births, according to the firm’s website.

“The dream of having your child in a country with one of the best medical systems in the world is much more real than you think,” the practice notes.

The practice asks parents to prepare travel documents for all those taking part, recommending a minimum validity period of six months, starting on the day scheduled for arrival in the United States.

Parents must begin the process of applying for the baby’s documentation prior to their return trip.

“We offer support and information on how to carry out these activities, which are usually completed easily,” the practice notes on its site.

Testimonials by parents from such countries as Brazil and Colombia are featured on the website, with many praising the practice’s continued support once they’re back in their home countries.

“It was worth the sacrifice.”

“We are very pleased with the decision to have our baby in Miami by this excellent group of professionals,” wrote Marypaz from Colombia (no last name given).

“It was worth the sacrifice to be away from our country and our family at this important time.”

Fox News Digital reached out to the Have my Baby in Miami practice for comment.

Section one of the 14th Amendment automatically grants citizenship to all persons born in the United States. Given that courts have routinely upheld birthright citizenship for over a century now, the Trump administration faces an uphill battle, as Fox News Digital has previously reported.

University of California Berkeley law professor John Yoo told Fox News Digital he believes the Supreme Court will overrule the Trump birthright order.

“The better way to operate under the current constitutional rule of birthright citizenship is to more vigorously enforce visas and to shut down businesses that encourage and enable birth tourism,” said Yoo.

A recent Fox News Poll found that 69% of voters support birthright citizenship for children born in the United States to illegal immigrants — which is up from 45%, when Fox News first asked the question in 2006.

The most common visas abused when it comes to birth tourism are B-2 tourist visas and B-1 business visas — which is what prompted the State Department to introduce a new rule in 2020.

“The better way to operate under the current constitutional rule of birthright citizenship is to more vigorously enforce visas and to shut down businesses that encourage and enable birth tourism,” said a professor of law. (iStock)

“A consular officer shall deny a B nonimmigrant visa to an alien [whom] he or she has reason to believe intends to travel for this primary purpose,” the rule reads.

The rule states that “the department considers birth tourism an inappropriate basis for the issuance of temporary visitor visas.”

President Trump called out birth tourism in a Truth Social post Monday, calling out China for exploiting U.S. birthright citizenship.

“The department considers birth tourism an inappropriate basis for the issuance of temporary visitor visas.”

“Birthright Citizenship is not about rich people from China, and the rest of the World, who want their children, and hundreds of thousands more,” he wrote, “FOR PAY, to ridiculously become citizens of the United States of America. It is about the BABIES OF SLAVES!”

The president added, “The World is getting rich selling citizenships to our Country.”

One law professor said he believes the Supreme Court will wind up overruling the Trump birthright order. A decision isn’t expected until late June. (iStock)

In July, the U.S. Mission to Nigeria shared a stark warning about “birth tourism” to those who might be planning trips to America primarily for this reason.

“Using your visa to travel for the primary purpose of giving birth in the United States so that your child will have U.S. citizenship is not permitted,” the mission wrote on its X account.

The notice was posted on Facebook as well.

“We will deny your visa if we believe your primary purpose of travel is to give birth in the United States to get U.S. citizenship for your child. This is not permitted,” the post stated.

The Supreme Court’s decision on the birthright citizenship issue is expected in late June.

CRUZ SAYS TRUMP’S MOVE TO STRIKE IRAN ‘MOST CONSEQUENTIAL DECISION’ OF HIS PRESIDENCY

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says US can see the finish line in Iran conflict

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday the U.S. is nearing the “finish line” in its conflict with Iran, while warning that Tehran was seeking to become the next North Korea.

Rubio told “Hannity” Tuesday that Iran was pursuing intercontinental missiles capable of striking the United States and would have achieved those objectives if President Donald Trump had not launched Operation Epic Fury.

“They were aiming to become the next North Korea, except not a North Korea run by a regime that is troublesome and hard to understand, but an Iran run by radical Shia clerics with intercontinental missiles that could reach the mainland of the United States eventually,” the Secretary of State said.

“That’s what they would have ultimately achieved… had President Trump not taken these steps that he’s taken.”

Rubio accused Iran’s regime of misleading the public about its ballistic missile capabilities, saying officials “denied” their missiles could reach as far as London.

“[Abbas] Araghchi, their foreign minister, this guy is a liar,” he told Fox News host Sean Hannity. “This guy was on television like a week ago – two weeks ago – denying that Iran had any missiles that could go beyond a certain limitation.“

Trump has recently said the Iran conflict could last only a few more weeks, as Operation Epic Fury nears 33 days, with Rubio echoing that the end is near.

DEFIANT IRAN VOWS TO FIGHT ‘UNTIL COMPLETE VICTORY,’ DESPITE HEAVY MILITARY LOSSES

“We can see the finish line. It’s not today, it’s not tomorrow, but it is coming,” Rubio said.

Rubio has signaled progress in talks with Iran, noting that while Tehran remains publicly defiant, its officials are being more cooperative in private discussions.

But he said President Trump will not be “strung” along like the Biden administration.

“What President Trump is not going to allow is he’s not going to allow fake negotiations to be used as a delay tactic, to buy more time, to buy themselves space,” Rubio explained.

Iranian leadership remains fluid, according to reports, as Pakistan announced Sunday that it will host talks between the United States and Iran.

Rubio warned that if a deal is not reached, the United States will not stop its military campaign.

TRUMP’S IRAN STRATEGY IS WORKING AND TEACHING OUR FOES WHAT DETERRENCE MEANS

“We’re not going to allow… the failure of talks to impede our ability to defend this country and to protect this country from a real threat,” he declared.

Rubio argued the Iranian regime is made up of people with destructive tendencies.

“This is a regime led by people who believe that it is their calling and their purpose in life is to usher in the end of the world,” he told Fox News. “These people want nuclear weapons.“

He also warned that the United States may reconsider its role in NATO once the U.S.-Iran conflict ends, as the war raised questions about the alliance’s value.

“We are going to reexamine whether or not this alliance, that has served this country well for a while, is still serving that purpose or has it now become a one-way street, where America is simply in a position to defend Europe. But when we need the help of our allies, they’re going to deny us basing rights,” he told Fox News.

President Trump will address the nation Wednesday at 9 p.m. ET to discuss the state of the U.S.-Iran conflict.

Iran building basement drone factories with Chinese parts, expert warns

EX-CIA STATION CHIEF WARNS US TROOP DEPLOYMENT TO KEY IRANIAN ISLAND COULD BE ‘EXTREMELY RISKY’

Iran building basement drone factories with Chinese parts, expert warns

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Iran is building a decentralized drone warfare capability in Tehran’s apartment building basements powered by inexpensive technology sourced from China, a leading defense expert has warned.

Draganfly’s Cameron Chell also said this emerging system — centered on first-person-view (FPV) drones — could pose a threat not only across the Middle East but potentially to the U.S. homeland.

“The FPVs are Iran’s Hail Mary because they are very hard to defend, are incredibly effective and can be delivered in a manner without having to have a central command,” Chell told Fox News Digital.

“So, whether it’s the Iranian army, whether it’s militia groups or Iranian patriots, they can all create or procure their own FPVs and get offensive.”

He added that “Iran could be reiterating FPVs and churning out more than 100,000 a month over time.”

“Iran’s got either militias or sleeper cells in the states who can, in my estimation, already build this equipment,” Chell clarified.

Chell’s warning comes as recent incidents in Iraq highlight the growing use of FPVs.

At Baghdad International Airport, Iranian-backed militias operating under the “Iraqi Islamic Resistance” umbrella have launched multiple FPV drone attacks.

Footage released in March 2026 allegedly shows an FPV drone striking a U.S. UH-60M or HH-60M Black Hawk helicopter, while another attack successfully hit a U.S. AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel radar unit at the same base.

“FPVs are a central core theme, and Iran is building these itself, suspecting they’re pulling parts in from China and getting the parts through some pretty porous borders. So, it is very difficult to stop that,” Chell said.

He warned that Iran’s strategy mirrors what has already occurred in Ukraine, where decentralized drone manufacturing has flourished.

“There will be, or already is, an underground industry for FPV and drone manufacturing, which will or is swelling up inside Iran, the exact same way that we saw it swell up inside Ukraine,” he explained.

“This is going to be happening in people’s homes in Iran, people’s basements, the basements of apartment blocks, where they can construct makeshift assembly lines.

“I am confident China and Russia are shipping in parts to help support the development of drone assembly or manufacturing capability, which is a de facto decentralized cottage industry.”

Concerns extend beyond overseas battlefields as about 1,500 Iranians were intercepted at the U.S. border during the Biden administration.

Officials warn the unknown number who evaded detection raises fears of potential “sleeper cells.”

MORE THAN 90% OF IRANIAN MISSILES INTERCEPTED, BUT A DANGEROUS IMBALANCE IS EMERGING

President Trump acknowledged the issue March 11, saying, “A lot of people came in through Biden with his stupid open border, but we know where most of them are: We’ve got our eye on all of them, I think.”

“It is the beginning of an asymmetric capability that the Iranians will use against their neighbors and U.S. assets in the region, but also the U.S. homeland,” Chell said.

“We may even want to call it terrorist attacks, using FPV’s against their neighbors and practically anywhere in the world.

“It’s a matter of when we see FPV attacks, probably swarm, probably sophisticated, on U.S. soil.”

“Within the next eight months, the Iranians are going to have sophisticated drone systems that can defeat some RF/radio frequency jamming. They will start to use tactics like swarming or spoofing,” he warned.

“It will be very, very difficult for the U.S. to take out these little drone factories in the basements of apartment blocks where civilians help. Cutting supply chains will also be difficult.

“The primary choke point for the Iranians is to establish supply chains from China to have enough supply to constitute precision mass capability and/or consistent, pervasive asymmetric capability,” Chell said before stating that, if this happens, “the war between Iran and the U.S. just gets a lot longer.”

AMERICANS MUST PAY HIGHER FEE FOR A TICKET TO THE WORLD’S MOST VISITED MUSEUM

New museum fees for foreign visitors mulled in UK following France's Louvre move

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

A new recommendation currently under discussion in the United Kingdom would change how foreigners visit popular national museums such as the British Museum and the National Gallery.

Margaret Hodge, a former Labour Party member of Parliament, submitted an independent review of the Arts Council England that suggests reform and addresses funding shortfalls by employing a new financial push — which the government has agreed to explore.

“The government believes charging international visitors at national museums could provide significant benefits,” the response notes.

In France, officials recently raised prices at the Louvre for foreign visitors.

Foreigners from outside the European Union now pay $12 more than a typical ticket for that museum, from $25 to $37, Fox News Digital previously reported.

As numerous reports have noted, charging foreigners a fee for U.K. museum visitation could present challenges, as there is currently no legal requirement to carry an ID — making it difficult to distinguish citizens from non-citizens.

At the end of parliament’s session, a “Digital ID scheme” is set to roll out; it would store personal information such as name, date of birth, nationality or residency status, plus a photo.

“Your free digital ID will be stored securely on your phone … simplifying access to government services and a range of uses across the private sector,” said a recent update from the government.

The implementation of digital IDs could help address the issue of identifying visitors, some reports have noted.

The British Museum, which opened its doors in 1759, was the most visited museum in the U.K. in both 2024 and 2025, with 6.1 million people visiting last year, according to Museum and Heritage.

“Charging international visitors at national museums could provide significant benefits,” according to a government proposal. (iStock)

As a piece in The Times (London) noted, “The government of Tony Blair abolished entry charges for England’s national museums 25 years ago. That policy is now under challenge.” (Special collections may still charge fees.)

Maria Balshaw, director of the Tate, expressed thoughts about the notion of charging foreign visitors an entry fee to U.K. museums.

“The British Museum and the [Victoria & Albert Museum], in particular, hold the best of many other nations’ art and culture,” Balshaw told The Financial Times, as The Art Newspaper reported.

“What does it say to people from the rest of the world if we say, ‘We’ve got your stuff, but we’re going to charge you to come in’? I don’t like that idea.”

One man in Houston turned a miserable four-hour TSA wait recently into an impromptu party by handing out free vodka shots to adults in line.

The video shows the traveler walking through the massive crowd at George Bush Intercontinental Airport with a large frosted bottle and a stack of plastic cups.

He began pouring shots for frustrated travelers who were stuck in a line that stretched far outside the terminal doors.

The move appeared both practical and generous, as TSA rules do not allow bottles larger than 3.4 ounces through security.

Instead of tossing the expensive liquor, the man decided to share it with his fellow passengers.

Video captured at other major hubs showed different ways travelers were passing the time, including a violinist performing for a packed crowd in Atlanta.

Fox News Digital previously reported that the ongoing Department of Homeland Security shutdown had triggered a massive staffing crisis, with many TSA officers forced to work without pay.

Those issues are said to be easing now at many airports as TSA employees begin to receive paychecks again.

Still, the ongoing chaos for weeks has led to some conflicting advice regarding when travelers should arrive.

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport has still been telling passengers to show up at least four hours early.

However, Austin-Bergstrom in Texas is urging travelers not to arrive that early. It argued that arriving too early has caused more congestion for those with closer departure times.

In Ohio, John Glenn Columbus International Airport suggested that 90 minutes before a flight is the “sweet spot” to avoid crowds.
