Lauderhill, Florida – The allegations against a police officer in Florida are serious. The man is accused of stealing the identity of a 71‑year‑old after his death, even moving into the senior’s house and acting as if the man were still alive. It all started with an incident in July 2022, when Officer Brian Sguros was dispatched for a so‑called “welfare check” at the home of 71‑year‑old Dennis West.

Some janitors at Oakland International Airport pulled in $200,000 or more in a single year, payroll records show, including eight who out-earned Oakland's own mayor in 2023.

The Indiana Hoosiers overcame a 12-point second half deficit to knock off Western Kentucky 79-74 in Evansville to close out the exhibition season. Both teams struggled from the field as the game lacked rhythm due to a combined 52 fouls and 62 free throw attempts. Bryce Lindsay led the way for the Hoosiers again as the Villanova transfer scored 20 points. Western Kentucky’s Teagan Moore had 30 points to lead all scorers but the Hoosiers came back largely thanks to a lineup that consisted of Sam A

ROYAL OAK — When Zachary Totz tried to eat at the Sign of the Beefcarver Oct. 24, the line wrapped around the block. So the next day, the restaurant's last day serving its hand-carved roast beef, Totz arrived nearly three hours before the Sign of the Beefcarver opened at 11 a.m. to make sure he'd have a chance to eat there one last time. Totz, 37, of Warren, was young when he first ate at Sign of the Beefcarver, as he used to go with his grandmother growing up after a trip to Cranbrook or the De
