Airport police arrest two for running illegal call centre targeting US citizens
Ahmedabad: The Airport police on Friday arrested two individuals for allegedly running an illegal call centre where they targeted American citizens by promising loans and committing fraud. Airport police PI N D Nakum said they received information that some individuals were operating a call centre from a residential block in Hansol. They were allegedly using a software to send messages to the US citizens, claiming their loans were approved and instructing them to purchase gift vouchers ranging from $100 to $500 from an American multinational retail corporation and provide the voucher numbers.

US Court Upholds Order Blocking Indiscriminate Targeting By Immigration Patrols In California
A US appeals court has upheld an order blocking immigration agents from carrying out patrols in California that led to indiscriminate detentions without reasonable grounds to suspect people of being undocumented. The ruling late Friday by a three-judge panel denies the federal government's appeal to overturn a temporary July order to halt the "roving patrols" in Los Angeles that immigration rights groups have described as illegally using racial profiling. District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong had ordered an end to the arrests, arguing such actions by agents violate a person's constitutional rights that safeguard against unreasonable seizures by the government. She said the detentions were being made "based upon race alone," on whether a person was speaking Spanish or English with an accent or because of their place of work, and ordered them stopped. Friday's ruling by the US court of appeals for the Ninth Circuit described the case of plaintiff Jason Gavidia, a US citizen born and raised in East Los Angeles who was arrested outside a tow yard in Montebello on June 12 by agents carrying military-style rifles. "The agents repeatedly asked Gavidia whether he is American -- and they repeatedly ignored his answer: 'I am an American,'" the ruling said. Agents asked what hospital he was born in, and Gavidia responded he did not know, but said he was born in "East LA." It said Gavidia told the agents he could show them his government-issued ID. "The agents took Gavidia's ID and his phone and kept his phone for 20 minutes. They never returned his ID." California residents and advocacy groups sued the Department of Homeland Security over the detentions. Los Angeles and surrounding suburbs have been ground zero for President Donald Trump's aggressive immigration crackdown. He ordered the US military deployed there for weeks, and agents have rounded up migrants at car washes, bus stops, stores and farms. The ruling said the government's defense team argued that "certain types of businesses, including car washes, were selected for encounters because... they are likely to employ persons without legal documentation." Rights groups hailed the order as a victory for those seeking to bar the Department of Homeland Security and agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement from conducting such raids. "This decision is further confirmation that the administration's paramilitary invasion of Los Angeles violated the Constitution and caused irreparable injury across the region," said attorney Mohammad Tajsar of the ACLU Foundation of Southern California. "We look forward to holding the federal government accountable for these authoritarian horrors it unleashed in Southern California."

What is the ‘door-kick' challenge? US authorities warn against viral TikTok trend; 'A good way to end up dead'
A new 'door-kick challenge' trend, which is doing rounds on social media, has sparked worries among the officials. This new TikTok challenge is an extreme variation of the 'ding-dong-ditch' prank, which involves ringing people's doorbells and fleeing before they answer. Door-kick challenge "is a good way to end up dead," said Volusia County Sheriff Mike Chitwood of Florida in a warning to citizens. (X) Under this TikTok challenge, pranksters randomly select a door in the middle of the night, kick it violently - sometimes until it comes off the hinges - and post a video of it online.

'Especially in Florida. You've got to think you're about to become a victim of a home invasion robbery and, under the Castle doctrine, you're gonna shoot first and ask questions later.' Advocacy organizations for online safety also cautioned that children may be arrested or killed due to this social media craze. Titania Jordan, chief parenting officer at Bark Technologies, a parental control app, told The Independent that 'this trend has the potential to end in absolute tragedy.' Children are putting themselves in grave danger, Jordan warned, adding that it's easy to see how a practical joke like this may turn into something permanent if householders are armed or on high alert. 'What's at stake is more than just a viral moment gone wrong,' the chief parenting officer said. 'It's a child's life, a family's future, and the potential for criminal charges that could follow them for years.' Recent incidences in California, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Wisconsin, Texas, and Michigan have prompted authorities to caution parents about the risky 'door kick challenge.' According to Marc Berkman, CEO of the Organization for Social Media Safety, social media has 'conditioned' American teenagers to play out risky games and challenges.

'Anyone participating in this type of behavior is certainly risking their own life,' stated John Bradley, a spokesman for the Louisville Metro Police Department. In Las Vegas earlier this month, pranksters broke in while homeowner Tyler Reggie and his expectant girlfriend were asleep on July 8 at 3 am. When the pounding began, Reggie told FOX5 he 'assumed the worst,' but after watching his doorbell camera footage, he realized it was youngsters. He said they damaged his property to the tune of $5,000. In the city of DeBary, Volusia County, Florida, two teens who participated in the challenge were charged with criminal burglary.
