Man indicted on attempted murder charge after woman refused sex
John Harold Garside was indicted with second-degree attempted murder, place to keep a pistol or revolver, carrying a firearm in commission of separate felony and felon in possession of a firearm.
The convicted felon, who has nine prior felony convictions and was on probation at the time of his May 24 arrest, is being held without bail.
The grand jury bench warrant set no bail for Garside and ordered him to remain 500 feet from the woman's home.
Garside is scheduled for arraignment Thursday before Judge Ronald Johnson.
A court document to determine probable cause for Garside's arrest says the woman, identified only as K.H., told police in two interviews while hospitalized May 21 that she was at 7-Eleven at Piikoi and Young streets earlier that morning when Garside, an acquaintance, picked her up in his silver Civic.
She said they went to an unknown cemetery, where they smoked methamphetamine.
She said he drove to the Pali Safeway, where he withdrew cash from an ATM at about 5 a.m., before driving up Tantalus Drive.
K.H. told police Garside gave her money, but she gave it back to him.
She drove his car up Tantalus Drive and stopped at some point.
K.H. said Garside wanted to have sex with her at a different place, she said.
When she refused, he shot her at close range with a revolver-type firearm, causing her to lose her hearing momentarily, she said. She got out of the car, ran and hid in some bushes.
She waited until Garside left the area, then emerged from the bushes and walked down Tantalus Drive.
A passerby spotted her bleeding and brought her to The Queen's Medical Center.
The passerby, identified in the court document as T.B., said he was driving up Tantalus Drive when he saw a woman walking down the road with blood on her right side.
She told him a man hit her, and he drove her to the Queen's emergency room.
T.B. showed police the area in the 2900 block of Tantalus Drive, where he spotted K.H. and picked her up.
Police located a parked car, equipped with cameras, in the area. They obtained video footage showing a silver sedan driving up Tantalus Drive at 6 :12 a.m., driving down 6 :22 a.m. The silver sedan then made a U-turn a minute later and drove down the hill in another minute. It then showed a bloodied K.H. walking down the hill, at 6 :30 a.m.
K.H. was able to provide a partial license plate number.
The detective received a physician's report from Queen's on May 24, showing K.H. received gunshot wounds to her shoulder, neck and head.
'The injuries did not end up being life-threatening, but potentially would have been with even a (n ) inch shift in position, ' the report said.
On Saturday the detective instructed officers to find and arrest Garside on the attempted murder and firearm offenses. He was arrested at 5 :24 p.m. May 24 at 369 N. Vineyard Blvd.

Legionnaires' disease cluster in New York City causes 2 deaths, sickens 58 people. What is it, and how do you get it?
The disease was initially detected on July 25. Two people have died and 58 people have been sickened in a Legionnaires' disease cluster in central Harlem in New York City, health officials said Monday. The disease was initially detected on July 25. Since then, the New York City Department of Health has been investigating the cluster and has sampled all cooling towers within the affected area, which help regulate a building's temperature. Eleven cooling towers tested positive for the bacteria that cause Legionnaires' disease. The remediation required by the health department has been completed, according to a Monday update. The following ZIP codes and bordering communities have been affected in Harlem: 10027, 10030, 10035, 10037 and 10039. "Anyone in these ZIP codes with flu-like symptoms should contact a health care provider as soon as possible," said acting health commissioner Dr. Michelle Morse. "Legionnaires' disease can be effectively treated if diagnosed early, but New Yorkers at higher risk, like adults aged 50 and older and those who smoke or have chronic lung conditions, should be especially mindful of their symptoms and seek care as soon as symptoms begin." What is Legionnaires' disease? It's a serious type of pneumonia, a lung infection, that is caused by Legionella bacteria. People can become sick from inhaling water vapor that's contaminated with Legionella bacteria. Less commonly, a person can get sick when water contaminated with the bacteria accidentally enters the lungs by aspiration. How does it spread? In general, Legionnaires' is not transmitted from person to person. Legionella can grow and spread in human-made water systems like showerheads and sink faucets, hot tubs, decorative fountains, complex and large plumbing systems and cooling towers, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. There are also factors that make it easier for Legionella to grow and survive in water, including: Biofilm, which is slime that enables germs to grow Temperatures from 77 degrees to 113 degrees Fahrenheit Not having enough disinfectant Slow or no water movement (Read more from the CDC about how to prevent waterborne germs while away from your home.) What are the symptoms of Legionnaires' disease? Symptoms usually appear in a person within two to 14 days after they've been exposed to the bacteria, the CDC says. Symptoms can be similar to other types of pneumonia, such as: Headache Muscle aches Shortness of breath Cough Fever Other symptoms can include confusion, diarrhea or nausea. Who is at risk of getting sick? Most healthy people exposed to Legionella don't become ill, according to the CDC's website. However, the following people are at increased risk of getting sick from the bacteria: People 50 years and older Current or former smokers People with specific health issues or conditions, like cancer, chronic lung disease, diabetes, kidney failure, liver failure and a weak immune system Diagnosis and treatment A chest x-ray can confirm if a person has pneumonia. But additional tests are needed to confirm if Legionella bacteria is the cause behind it, such as a urine test, or a lab test involving a sample from phlegm (sputum) or lung lavage (lung washing), according to the CDC. The disease is treatable with antibiotics, but hospital care is often needed.

Mom, 46, Dies in Mobile Home Fire Despite Neighbors' Rescue Efforts as Teen Son and Friends Survive
"We pretty much heard her take her last breath," said a neighbor, who tried to rescue the trapped womanNEED TO KNOW A 46-year-old woman is dead after a fire engulfed her Michigan home on Aug. 4, authorities said Her 13-year-old son and his two friends were able to escape without serious injury "It was chaotic,' a neighbor said about the tragic incidentA 46-year-old Michigan woman is dead after a fire engulfed her mobile home, authorities said. Her 13-year-old son and his two friends were able to escape the Monday, Aug. 4, blaze, but neighbors weren't able to get her out of the building in time, the Oakland County Sheriff's Office said in a press release shared on Facebook. Authorities said emergency responders responded just before 7:15 a.m. local time to Clarkston Lakes, a mobile home community in Clarkston. When they arrived, the single-wide mobile home in the 3800 block of Cedar Loop was 'engulfed in flames." 'Neighbors were unsuccessful in their attempts to help the mother escape from the rear of the home,' the sheriff's office said. The woman, who has not been identified at this time, died as a result of the fire. Authorities said the woman's 13-year-old son, who was in a rear bedroom, and two boys, ages 14 and 15, who were in the front of the house, all escaped without serious injury. An investigation into the cause of the fire is ongoing. The Oakland County Sheriff's Office and the Oakland County Medical Examiner's Office have been contacted by PEOPLE for further comment. Just hours after the flames subsided, locals shared harrowing details about the fire and attempts to save the woman. 'It was chaotic,' a neighbor, Robert Elder, told FOX affiliate WJBK. 'There were people running around, screaming, trying to figure out if everybody was out.' He and another resident living nearby tried to rescue the 46-year-old woman when they realized she was trapped inside. "We were pulling on her, and then we would almost take turns pulling on her,' he told the outlet. 'At one point I think we both grabbed her arms trying to pull on her.' Elder compared the heat of the fire to being near the sun. The flames caused the sides of neighbors' homes to melt, WJBK reported. "We pretty much heard her take her last breath," Elder told the outlet. "That was the hardest part.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. The man added that he wished that he could have done more to save her, according to WJBK. Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard offered his thoughts and prayers to the family following the tragic incident, and also issued a reminder to residents. 'While we are still in the process of determining cause and origin, any fire is a reminder that we should make sure our smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are in working order,' he said in a statement, 'and we know how to escape from any room in our house should an emergency call for it.'

Watch MAGA politicians die inside as their voters turn on them at town hall meetings
Republicans may be in power right now, but that doesn't make them immune from criticism — even in bright red states like Nebraska — and one conservative's constituents took that to a whole new level on Monday night. The GOP is no stranger to being heckled and booed at city council meetings, rallies, and town hall meetings — just look at JD Vance's propensity for inspiring anger in crowds — but House Republican Rep. Mike Flood just faced an onslaught of hostile Nebraskans when he tried to defend President Donald Trump's massive spending and tax bill that contains cut to Medicaid, ABC News reports. 'Given your full-throated support of the bill, whatever we call it, and your view of the facts, I'd like to know how you expect tp pay back a lot of this debt that is going to be layered onto our grandchildren because we're not willing to make our rich part of our society pay their fair share,' one Nebraskan in the audience asked the congressman to cheers from the crowd. When Flood attempted to explain himself, he was drowned out by the audience chanting, 'Tax the rich, tax the rich!' At other points during the town hall meeting, Flood was met with boos, heckling, and people shouting 'vote him out' so loudly that he had to stop talking, including when he was trying to explain that cutting Medicaid was the answer to cutting healthcare costs, despite the Bipartisan Policy Center reporting that the Trump administration's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' will cost the country $3.4 trillion. But it was one Nebraska citizen who took her opportunity at the podium to ask a question that has probably been on many people's minds these days. While asking a 'fiscal' question where she referenced ICE spending millions every day to illegally detain people, the makeshift immigration detention facility dubbed 'Alligator Alcatraz,' and FEMA dollars being used to open 'more concentration camps,' one woman asked, 'How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the taxpayers have to pay for a fascist country?' as the crowd erupted in applause. Flood may have just entered the 'find out' stage of 'f*ck around and find out,' but he isn't the only Republican who is facing backlash from their constituents. Iowa Republican Ashley Hinton was heckled and laughed at when she praised Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' and defended his decision to accept a jet from Qatar. Angry constituents didn't hold back when Republican Congressman Chuck Edwards (R-N.C.) defended Trump and Elon Musk's sweeping cuts to the government at a town hall meeting in March. The interaction with the crowd became so hostile that Edwards even had to be escorted from the building. 'You're taking away my Social Security, f*ck you!' one U.S. Veteran shouted while the crowd cheered him on and applauded. Republican Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall walked out of his own town hall meeting early after people angry about the Trump administration's budget cuts and funding freezes made their voices heard. The senator was booed as he entered the meeting and was quickly asked questions about veterans being fired by Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, but instead of answering his constituents questions, he ended the meeting and walked out. Florida GOP Rep. Byron Donalds faced a contentious crowd at a town hall in April. The attendees shouted from the crowd while the congressman kept asking, 'do you want to yell, or do you want to hear?' The crowd erupted into applause when one person asked, 'Do you approve of Elon and DOGE invading our Social Security files? But Donalds only got boos when he tried to answer. And these are all just examples of Republicans being shut down by their own constituents since Trump took office. We hate to see the damage the Republican Party is doing every day they hold onto power, but it's highly satisfying to see them squirm when their voters hold them accountable!
