The Facebook founder amassed an additional $84 billion to his name, elevating his net worth to $139.1 billion and positioning him as the fifth-richest person globally.

Family members of David Harrington, Clayton McGeeney and Ricky Johnson told FOX4 they learned that police received the report, and Kansas City police confirmed they have been in contact with family.

HAMTRAMCK, Mich - The Wayne County Juvenile Detention Center is facing yet another scandal. This time, a state employee brought in by the county to monitor operations is accused of sex crimes against a teen.

A spokesperson for Wayne County wrote in a statement they are "profoundly saddened that state employees entrusted to care for children would exploit them."

CHICAGO, IL - Advocates for criminal justice reform have often pointed to minor traffic stops as a source of tension between police and the community. An Illinois lawmaker on Wednesday introduced a bill that would restrict the reasons a cop can pull you over.

PHOENIX - A Democratic state lawmaker has announced her resignation, a day after an ethics report sparked controversy over her behavior.

PHOENIX, AZ - The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is pushing to make unsolicited AI-generated robocalls targeting consumers illegal.

News of the agency’s proposal comes after an apparent robocall used artificial intelligence to mimic President Joe Biden's voice and discourage voters in New Hampshire from coming to the polls during the state’s primary election on Jan. 23.

SCOTLAND - Meet the pet detective who has helped track down and reunite 330 lost dogs with their owners for free—using a thermal imaging drone.

Mother Tangenika Lee says she feels like she’s lost her 15-year-old son, Deontray, all over again after his death from a fentanyl overdose in 2020. His remains are now unaccounted for after she tried shipping them to her sister, who was making a custom cremation urn.
