  Shocking surveillance footage from a Cincinnati school shows an 8-year-old boy apparently being pulled headfirst into a restroom wall by a bully - and his classmates kicking and prodding his motionless body. The boy, Gabriel Taye, committed suicide at his home two days later, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer. The boy’s mother has accused the school of covering up the Jan. 24 attack. School officials originally claimed Gabriel fainted, attorney Carla Leader told the Associated Press. In the video, Gabriel is seen walking into a restroom at Carson Elementary School when he encounters another student.

The woman told police an unmarked car pulled her over near Broadway Blvd. and Wilmot Road about 8:00 p.m. A man came to her window, told her he was an off-duty officer. He handcuffed her and told her to sit in the backseat of his car before releasing her, the report said. Police say the man is not an officer. The woman described him as a white or Hispanic man, in his late 20’s or early 30’s, about 6’ tall. He was driving a gold or bronze four-door sedan with red and blue lights on the dashboard.

  New ‘cold spot’ discovery could prove existence of a parallel universe
  
  Scientists believe they have moved a step closer to proving the existence of a parallel universe with the discovery of a mysterious ‘cold spot’. This cool patch of space, that was first spotted by the NASA WMAP satellite in 2004, is part of the radiation that was thought to have been produced during the formation of the universe some 13 billion years ago. Professor Shanks theorises that this is ‘the first evidence for the multiverse - and billions of other universes may exist like our own”.
