Michigan football will no longer plant or run on field with team flag after games
In 2022, when Michigan football beat Ohio State in Columbus, players went to the north end zone, grabbed the Block M flag from the cheer team, brought it to midfield, and planted it for a group picture and in celebration. When the Wolverines shocked the Buckeyes in 2024, the same order of operations was taking place, but this time, OSU players took exception, running to midfield and thus starting an altercation that ended in pepper spray being deployed. Despite history repeating itself in terms of the maize and blue planting the flag, with different results of post-plant outcome, Wolverines head coach Sherrone Moore says that it won't happen again. "Oh yeah, we definitely addressed it, and there'll be no more flag planting," Moore said. "There'll be no more grabbing the flag. We talked about our new tradition, and what we do when we win a game is go meet the band, go sing (The) Victors, and stay over there until the other team departs, and that's how we'll operate. Shake hands after the game, show sportsmanship, be cordial. "A lot of guys in college football know each other. All these guys, they're kids at the end of the day. They're 17 to 22-year-old kids, and most of them are friends. A lot of them talk before the game, so let them have that. But then, as a team, they'll be together as a team and then leave as a team." There was quite a dramatic reaction, not even in the immediate postgame, with the Ohio State players rushing over to get in Michigan players' faces, but there was also proposed legislation from an Ohio state legislator making it a felony to plant a flag at Ohio Stadium. Due to the graphics that made their way around the internet in the aftermath, Michigan edge rusher Derrick Moore was something of a poster child for the incident on the Wolverines' side. At Big Ten media days, he laughed that off, but he also regrets the way things went down, considering his role as a leader on the team. "So first, I'm going to say I was one of the guys that was involved with it," Moore said. "A lot of people think I was trying to actually plant the flag. I wasn't trying to plant the flag. I was actually trying to run around the field with the flag. And as (I was) running around with the flag, I got pushed and things like that. So I ended up talking trash -- next thing next. The flag ended up coming off my head. And a whole scuffle turned out. "But looking back on that, I probably got two views on it. I feel like I could have did a better job as a leader of not letting that get out like that. Pretty much just celebrating with my teammates and things like that. But at the same time, I feel like that right there is pretty much why people come to Michigan or Ohio State. It's because of rivalries and atmosphere like that. I feel like that right there is going to be a good lead going into this year again." And his reaction to being made to look like a felon? Moore couldn't help but jest about the whole scenario. "it's actually crazy. For, like, a whole month straight, they had a picture of me with the flag on the field. And they pretty much just said, like, criminal or something like that under the picture. And I'm like, bro, wow. I'm a criminal now just because I tried run around with a flag or flying a flag? I feel like that's actually crazy. But all I got to say, man, hey, that's Ohio for you. That's Ohio for you. That's all I can say."

7 arrested after 10 children found sexually abused in bunker of Alabama home: police
Seven people have been arrested in connection with an alleged child sex trafficking ring in Alabama, with victims as young as 3, police said. Bibb County Sheriff Jody Wade said during a press conference on July 23 that ten children were abused as part of an alleged trafficking ring run out of a home in Brent, about 50 miles southwest of Birmingham. The children are between 3 to 15 years old, but officials expect more victims and more arrests could be possible. USA TODAY reached out to the Bibb County Sheriff's Office on July 25. Wade also said officials are investigating whether the ring is connected to a gang whose main source of income is child sex trafficking. "I've been in law enforcement for 33 years and this is absolutely the most horrible thing I've ever seen when it comes to victimization of children," Wade said. "Like I say, I know God's forgiveness is boundless, but if there was a limit to it, I think we've reached it." Child sex trafficking ring was run out of storm shelter bunker, police say The alleged trafficking ring, which officials believe started around 2022, was run out of a storm shelter bunker in the yard of a home. The top of the bunker was covered by a carport, Wade said. The bunker "was a pretty good size to where you could actually live in there comfortably," and had a toilet and mattress, Wade said. The victims were sometimes tied to a pole or bed inside the bunker. Officials also believe drugs were involved, according to Wade. "I think it may have been something not necessarily a narcotic, more something like to make them more a little bit more drowsy and a little bit more compliant for the ones that were physically able to somewhat try to fight back and protect themselves," Wade said. 7 suspects arrested in child sex trafficking ring Seven suspects have been arrested so far in connection to the alleged trafficking ring, but more arrests could be possible as the investigation continues. Some of the suspects in custody are relatives of the victims, Wade said. Their names and charges include: William Chase McElroy: four counts of first-degree rape, six counts of first-degree sodomy, six counts of human trafficking, four counts of first-degree kidnapping Dalton Terrell: five counts of first-degree rape, seven counts of first-degree sodomy, six counts of human trafficking, four counts of first-degree kidnapping Andres Velazquez-Trejo: six counts of human trafficking Timothy St. John: two counts of first-degree rape, four counts of first-degree sodomy, four counts of human trafficking, three counts of first-degree kidnapping, one count of bestiality, one count of aggravated cruelty to animals Rebecca Brewer: eight counts of human trafficking, eight counts of first-degree kidnapping, three counts of sexual torture Ricky Terrell: one count of first-degree rape Sarah Louise Terrell: one count of sexual torture, two counts of sexual abuse of a child less than 12 years old 'You can't heal from this' Wade said police were tipped off to possible child abuse in February by the local Department of Human Resources. The victims have been removed from the home and are receiving support services including counseling, Wade said. "They'll carry this vividly for the rest of their lives," Wade said. "So, all we can do is the best we can by them to help them get past this. You can't heal from this, but you can move on as best you can." Melina Khan is a national trending reporter for USA TODAY.

Two Waynesboro police officers indicted amid allegations they assaulted fellow cop
Two Waynesboro police officers have been indicted on felony charges by a special grand jury following an April incident that reportedly took place while both were on duty, according to a joint media release by the Waynesboro Police Department and the Waynesboro Commonwealth's Attorney's Office. Cpl. Jacob W. Moore, 30, and Officer Joseph M. Meadows, 29, both face charges of assault and battery of a police officer and disarming a law enforcement officer of a firearm. Details were limited, but Waynesboro Commonwealth's Attorney David Ledbetter said Moore and Meadows are accused of assaulting another Waynesboro police officer. All were on-duty at the time, he said. The incident took place April 6 and was reported weeks later on April 25. Around that same timeframe, The News Leader reached out to Chief David Shaw of the Waynesboro Police Department, who said he could not discuss personnel matters. "We are always committed to handling such issues quickly, with the appropriate confidentiality and due process," Shaw said in an email. "Should a matter warrant public disclosure, we will communicate through our usual channels, as we are always dedicated and focused on upholding the integrity and professionalism expected of our profession." A press release said the incident took place between several officers on April 6 at an undisclosed location on the city's south end. "As reported, it potentially violated the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. To ensure that a transparent and impartial investigation was completed, the Waynesboro Police Department requested an external investigation by the Virginia State Police and the Waynesboro Commonwealth's Attorney's Office. The accused officers were placed on administrative leave and had their police powers suspended pending the outcome of the investigation," the release said. Moore has been with the department for seven years. Meadows has been employed there for less than two years. Both were arrested on July 21 and released on a personal recognizance bond, the release said. Ledbetter said he will handle the prosecution. "I'm elected to prosecute the felony cases in Waynesboro, the hard ones and not simply just the popular ones," he said. "I do not intend to recuse myself at this time."
