12-year-old killed in minibike crash in Raytown, highway patrol says
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A 12-year-old was killed Thursday night in a minibike crash in Raytown, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP). The crash was reported just before 8 p.m. The MSHP crash log says the minibike ran off the road and hit a curb before crashing into a building at East 62nd Street and Arlington Avenue. 'In these warmer months, we tend to see a lot of activity with motorcycles, mini-bikes, ATVs, four-wheelers,' said Corporal Justin Ewing. 'We want to remind people: those cannot be operated on the roadways in certain situations. Particularly, you have to have a driver's license and in most of those instances, any of those vehicles that I just mentioned, you have to have a valid driver's license to operate those vehicles, but while you're on the road, you have to follow all the same rules, like speed limit, stop signs.' The 12-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene by Raytown Fire Department personnel. 'These incidents are tragic. It tears communities apart when we lose anyone in a crash, let alone a young driver,' Ewing said. 'So, we just want to encourage people, but particularly in these warmer months, and we know these days between Memorial Day and Labor Day are called the 100 deadliest days of summer for our young drivers. Whether it's driving in a vehicle, driving on a motorized scooter, minibike, moped, whatever it may be, have those good conversations about safety, where they should or shouldn't ride these things. We don't want to lose our young folks to tragic circumstances.' Amber Rollins is the Director of Kids and Car Safety. She said they've seen a drastic increase in the number of deaths and injuries when it comes to e-bikes and e-scooters. 'Our recommendation would be that children do not ride them,' Rollins said. 'Period.' She said from 2017-2022, there were about 360,000 emergency room visits nationwide involving E-bikes and e-scooters. 'We're finding that injuries involved in these types of crashes are very similar to those of motor vehicle crashes,' Rollins said. 'So, the speed at which these E-bikes operate is extremely dangerous. They can go up to 30 mph.' This is a developing story. Stay with FOX4 for the latest updates. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Long Island swimmer ‘most likely' bitten by shark at popular beach: authorities
A 20-year-old woman was 'most likely' bit by a juvenile shark at a popular Long Island beach while trying to beat the blistering heat this week, park officials revealed on Friday. The swimmer was wading in waist deep water at the Central Mall beachfront at Jones Beach State Park on Wednesday when something chomped on her foot and leg just after 4 p.m., according to a release from Parks, Recreation and Historic preservation. The woman couldn't see what attacked her, but parks officials determined it was most likely a juvenile sand tiger shark, according to an investigation from the Department of Environmental Conservation. Advertisement The 20-year-old woman was waist-deep at the Central Mall beachfront when she was bitten by something that officials believe is a juvenile shark. Getty Images Lifeguards sprung into action and treated the woman who suffered minor, non-life-threatening lacerations to her lower extremity and was treated at Nassau County University Medical Center Hospital. Swimming was shut down at Central Mall following the presumptive shark bite, but resumed Thursday morning. Advertisement Park officials suggest the best way to avoid shark encounters is to keep out of the water at night, steer clear of murky water, stay away from appetizing schools of fish, and always follow instructions of lifeguards. The toothsome aquatic terrors have been spotted several times as folks make their seasonal return to Atlantic Coast beaches. Sharks have been sighted at several locations across the Atlantic Coast since the summer weather started to turn. Dave – An 11-foot-long, 761-pound, great white shark named 'Dold' popped a fin off the coast of New Jersey earlier this week, according to Ocearch. Advertisement On Memorial Day over on Block Island, Rhode Island, what was reported to be a 20-foot shark trailed a tiny boat in a pond in full view of diners chowing down at a local eatery. These sightings come as the classic Steven Spielberg shark thriller 'Jaws' celebrates the 50th anniversary of its release.

A 47-foot yacht was destroyed in a Friday morning fire in Fort Lauderdale near the Lauderdale Yacht Club, Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue said. Fire crews received several 911 calls just before 7 a.m. reporting the blaze. Units arrived on scene within six minutes to find the vessel fully engulfed near the 1100 block of Cordova Road.. Firefighters used water and foam to suppress the fire. It took just over 20 minutes to bring the flames under control, but not before the yacht had extensive damage.
