A knife-wielding intruder sparked chaos on the set of Michael B. Jordan’s latest movie Friday night, allegedly threatening a crew member with a butcher’s knife. Police were called after Alex Perez, 23, allegedly began scaring crew working on the Brooklyn film set as he ran across the production site, TMZ reports. In a video captured at the scene, a crew member could be seen trying to remove Perez from the set before he pulled what appeared to be a large knife from beneath his sweater. Police arrested him quickly after arriving around 11:17 p.m. While cuffed, Perez was heard calling a member of the production crew the N-word while he was escorted away. “The individual was taken into custody without incident, and the knife was recovered,” the NYPD told NBC News. No injuries were reported, and it’s not known if Jordan, who won a Best Actor Oscar for his dual role in Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, or his co-star, Oscar nominee Austin Butler, were on set at the time. Perez has been charged with menacing with a weapon in the second degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the fourth degree.

A fire ravaged the remote Bavarian retreat favored by Germany’s World War II dictator Adolf Hitler. The Daily Mail reports that around 200 firefighters were dispatched to the Eagle’s Nest on Friday evening, and found it “completely ablaze.” Police told the outlet no one was injured and a “suspicious person was taken into temporary custody.” Firefighters worked overnight as the blaze continued into the early hours on Saturday. Built in 1938, the Eagle’s Nest was used as a guest house by Hitler and high-ranking Nazi officials. The historic building is now a tourist attraction, owned by the state of Bavaria and operated by a charitable trust. According to The New York Times, Bavarian police said the ravaged structure is unlikely to be salvageable. The Eagle’s Nest’s website currently says it is closed until further notice.

A bizarre mid-flight confrontation forced a commercial jet to turn back after an aggressive traveler made a disturbing comment to the crew. The drama unfolded aboard American Airlines Flight 339, which had just departed Miami for Georgetown, Guyana. Minutes into the Boeing 737 Max’s climb, a male passenger suddenly charged down the aisle toward the rear flight attendants and said, “I will take care of you when we land in Guyana.” The pilot radioed Air Traffic Control, warning that the passenger spoke in a “[very] threatening manner while we were climbing out” and noted that staff were “pretty shaken up.” The six-year-old aircraft immediately aborted its route and returned to Miami International Airport, where local law enforcement met the plane on the tarmac. Following an initial investigation, deputies with the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office concluded that the spat was merely a “verbal dispute” and confirmed that “no assault was committed.” The traveler was rebooked on a later flight. Meanwhile, remaining passengers finally took off just over four hours later around 11 p.m., touching down in South America at 3 a.m. local time. American Airlines apologized for the disruption, attributing the U-turn to a “situation with a customer that required attention.”

Anika Rashaun, who starred in The Real World and The Challenge and was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer a year ago, has died a few months after getting married. Her friend Tiara Ramos posted a tribute, saying the late MTV star was persuasive, “fiercely loyal,” and “always so unapologetically herself.” The tribute was posted on Oct. 22, which would have been Rashaun’s 35th birthday. She died on Oct. 1. Rashaun married her husband, Kyle Walker-Rehn, just seven months ago. She made her name on two reality TV shows, The Challenge and The Real World. Rashaun also worked as a dating coach and sold an ebook on modern fairy tales, according to her Instagram. Rashaun and her husband, Kyle, tied the knot in San Marcos, California on Valentine’s Day. “The day was literally a dream filled with the best moments,” Rashaun wrote on Instagram two weeks after the wedding, with photos from the nuptials. “Kyle and I couldn’t imagine a more perfect day!”

If you (or your partner) snore at night, you know how disruptive it can be to getting a good night’s sleep. While plenty of over-the-counter remedies promise to silence snoring, from nasal strips to specialty pillows, anti-snoring mouthguards can be an effective, drug-free option for certain types of snoring. These devices work by gently positioning the lower jaw forward to help keep the upper airway open during sleep, reducing the vibrations that cause snoring in the first place.

GoodSleepCo’s Hushd Avera Anti-Snoring Mouthpiece is a doctor-designed, adjustable mouthguard with two settings, allowing users to find a more personalized balance of comfort and support. Unlike one-size-fits-all mouthguards, the Hushd Avera is designed to mold to the user’s teeth at home in approximately two minutes—no trip to the dentist required.

The customizable mouthpiece is made from medical-grade, BPA-free, latex-free, and phthalate-free materials and includes three arches designed to accommodate different fits. Its adjustable design also allows users to fine-tune the positioning of their jaw rather than committing to a single setting, which makes it easier to find a comfortable fit.

Of course, not all snoring is created equal, and an anti-snoring mouthguard isn’t a universal fix—especially for those with underlying conditions like obstructive sleep apnea. But for those dealing with uncomplicated snoring, a customizable oral mouthpiece may be the ticket to a better night’s sleep. Plus, you can currently score 15 percent off the Hushd Avera for a limited time.

A mom and son spending time together on the beach have made a startling, century-old find. Hannah Damon, director of outreach at Camp Amnicon Adventures and Retreats in Wisconsin, was at the camp’s beach on Lake Superior when they found the remains of the steam-powered tugboat A.H. Pitz. “We started seeing beams and cables, and this massive pipe, and it was like, ‘wait a minute, this is a shipwreck, this is a shipwreck,’” she told Fox News Digital. The 70-foot-long vessel was built in 1923 and abandoned 28 years later in 1951. She knew it was there, but had never caught a glimpse of it before. “I ran back to shore, and I got my camera, and I was like, ‘OK, you are not allowed to splash me. This is a really exciting discovery.’” Her footage shows the wreck through the water—a rare treat in typically murky waters due to the clay plain the southern shore of Lake Superior sits on. “I was actually just down back at the beach yesterday, and again, the water was calm, but it was murky again,” she said.

World Series-winning catcher Todd Benzinger has died. He was 63. The Cincinnati native’s cause of death has not been released. The Cincinnati Reds’ first baseman caught the final out of their 1990 World Series sweep. The Boston Red Sox drafted Benzinger out of high school in 1987, but he returned to Cincinnati after two seasons. “The Cincinnati Reds are saddened by the passing of former first baseman and 1990 World Series champion Todd Benzinger,” the Reds said in a statement on X. “Todd will be remembered with great affection and gratitude for his place in one of the most memorable chapters in Reds history. Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, former teammates and all who knew and loved him.” Benzinger was traded to the Kansas City Royals in 1991 and, four years later, in 1995, hung up his mitt after stints with the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants. Reds Hall of Fame and Museum director Rick Walls said: “Todd will forever be remembered by Reds fans for catching the final out of the 1990 World Series, but those of us who had the privilege of knowing him will remember so much more.”

Scientists have found a fossil so chunky that they think it’s a whole new species. A pair of exceptionally rare belemnite fossils from the Jurassic Period was found in Wyoming’s Sundance Formation, leading experts to determine they were a new species called Wyoteuthis linsterorum. Belemnites are a now-extinct order of squid-like animals that differ from today’s squid because they have a solid, bullet-shaped internal skeleton rather than a modern squid’s soft pen. The findings were published in Papers in Paleontology, which said that the fossils’ barrel-shaped bodies measured up to 2.3 inches across. Science Daily reports that this makes them the “fattest” belemnites ever found. The researchers think the full creature may have been nearly two feet long, and noted that the finding is particularly rare because the belemnite branch it belongs to disappeared millions of years before belemnite fossils that are still found relatively regularly.

NFL legend Marshall Faulk has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. The 53-year-old shared the diagnosis on The Caring Neurologist podcast and said he’s in “a good place.” Faulk revealed that the first signs appeared while he was playing golf, prompting him to visit a doctor. While he said his life remains the same, his symptoms do appear. “The little tremors that I get, you know, they are what they are,” Faulk said. “I just pay attention to my gait, you know, while I walk, when I’m working out, my ability to balance. It’s still where it is.” Still, he called himself “one of the lucky ones” because his condition was identified early. Faulk has been the head coach at Southern University since December 2025. He spent 12 years in the NFL, winning the Super Bowl with the Rams in 1999, and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2011.

The chair is also surprisingly stylish. Desk chairs can tend to look medical rather than aesthetic, but the X-Tech Executive Chair comes in many colors and finishes (seriously, check out all the customizations) to fit your space as well as it fits your rear end. You can even add optional heating and massage.

Assembly is easy, and the shipping includes a blissfully small amount of packaging. I was able to put this together myself with the included tools and instructions in under 15 minutes. If you’re ready to get your desk set up to snuff, check out the X-Tech Executive Chair here.

An American tourist plummeted to her death in the Dolomites, northern Italy, while hiking across a mountain with her family on Saturday. Michelle Alejandra Rubio Leiva, 36, a communications manager from Florida, strayed from a safe route attempting to take a photo at a scenic spot when she lost her footing and plunged almost 1,000 feet into the canyon below near Forcella Pordoi, above Canazei, the Italian outlet Corriere della Sera reported. When she fell, other members of her tour group were walking to a cable car station to take them up to a famous panoramic restaurant at the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Her sister alerted authorities, and emergency services pronounced Leiva dead at the scene just before 12:30 p.m. Saturday. The recovery operation lasted several hours, and her body was airlifted to Canazei. The Italian Alpine Rescue unit told CNN that more than 80 people have died in the Dolomites so far this year.

A Florida man had to be rescued from a freezing, snow-capped mountain wearing clothes suited more to a light stroll than a dangerous hike.

The 39-year-old had managed to reach the summit of California’s Mount Shasta on Sunday, but fell through a snow bridge on his descent, seriously injuring his leg.

The Siskiyou County Sheriff’s Office, along with U.S. Forest Service Climbing Rangers and California Highway Patrol helicopters, then carried out a multi-day search-and-rescue operation.

When the hiker put out his distress call, officials said he was only wearing “sweatpants, a sweatshirt, and running shoes, and was not equipped for an overnight stay on the glacier.”

Officials also said strong winds and poor visibility hampered the rescue operation.

The man was eventually found in the early hours of Monday morning and was treated for his injuries, including frostbite and the onset of hypothermia. However, the team and the hiker had to spend another freezing night on the mountainside as conditions were too severe to transport him.

A California Highway Patrol helicopter eventually reached the team on Tuesday afternoon and transported the climber to the hospital, where he is being treated for his injuries. Deputies said that rescuers had to navigate rockfall hazards, 50 to 60 mph winds, and freezing conditions, all while the man’s condition was “deteriorating rapidly.”

“These rescuers demonstrated impressive resolve throughout the entire ordeal, persevering in extreme conditions, and executing the mission with a relentless commitment to the saving of a life,” deputies said after the rescue.

Officials have not released the hiker’s name or where in Florida he is from.
