Fracking wastewater spills from tanker truck after crash in Sullivan Twp
SULLIVAN TWP., Pa. (WETM) — A tanker truck carrying fracking wastewater rolled 100 feet down an embankment in Tioga County, Pennsylvania, on Monday, spilling about 2,000 gallons of flowback water into a nearby stream, according to a release from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).
The crash happened in the early morning on Monday, May 12, near 332 Connelly Mountain Road in the Sullivan Township area, Josh Clark from the Mansfield Hose Company explained in the release. According to Clark, the truck left the road and flipped onto its side into a small stream.

About half of its load leaked out from the top hatch of the tank, but no fuel was observed after absorbents and pads were placed in and around the stream as a precaution, the release further stated. Clark said the truck was assumed to be coming from a well pad site on Mountain Ridge Road in Mainesburg, PA.
The release stated Moore's trucking company went to the scene with a pump truck to remove the remaining liquid from the overturned tanker, and B&W Towing Company also helped with cleanup. DEP officials remained on-site on Monday to make sure everything was being properly taken care of.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' ex-employee Capricorn Clark testifies about Kid Cudi incident
A former employee of Sean 'Diddy' Combs testified on Tuesday, sharing additional details about her employer's plot to kill Scott Mescudi, a.k.a. Kid Cudi. Capricorn Clark, who worked for Combs on and off for more than a decade, told the court she initially helped Cassie Ventura hide her relationship with Kid Cudi from her Combs. However, when Combs discovered his ex's relationship in 2011, he showed up at Clark's house with a gun. Per Variety, Clark described Combs as furious, pacing in a disheveled outfit with his pants split open at the crotch. He was angry that Clark hadn't told him about Ventura's relationship, and declared 'I should kill you bitches' for keeping Kid Cudi a secret (via NBC News). He told Clark, 'Get dressed, we're going to go kill this n*****' and forced her to come along as he went to Mescudi's house with a weapon. While Combs and his security guards broke into Mescudi's house, Clark called Ventura to warn her what was happening, as Mescudi testified last week. Clark recalled getting into a car chase with Mescudi (which was not part of his testimony), after which Combs demanded Clark call Ventura to tell her he wasn't going to let Clark go unless Ventura came to see Combs. The music mogul threatened both women to make sure Mescudi didn't name Combs on the police report: 'If you don't convince him of that, I'll kill all you motherfuckers,' Clark remembered him saying (via Variety). When Combs saw Ventura later, he 'repeatedly kicked her,' beating her at 'full force,' Clark testified. Clark witnessed the assault, but didn't intervene because Combs threatened to hurt her as well. She said she called Ventura's mom to tell her her daughter was being assaulted and encouraged her mother to report the incident to the police. Clark herself said she reported the kidnapping and assault to then-president of Bad Boy Records Harve Pierre, who brushed it off. She was fired months later, supposedly for not getting her vacation time authorized properly. 'I lost everything,' she testified, adding that Combs 'said I would never work again and all these people weren't my friends and he would make me kill myself.' In Clark's testimony, she spoke of being close with Combs but also described him as a violent, volatile employer. He threatened to kill her on her first day of work over her association with Suge Knight; once, when she lost some jewelry he entrusted her with, she was made to take a lie detector test for eight hours a day five days in a row. Clark admitted to seeking forgiveness from Combs after her 2012 firing. She was eventually re-hired in 2016 to work with Cassie Ventura. More from A.V.

Bumbling baby-faced NYC gangs that accidentally shot one of their own, hit bystanders get nailed by cops
They're the gangs that couldn't shoot straight. A bumbling baby-faced Bronx gang accidentally killed one of its own in a gunfight with a rival group — and its foes later fired 17 shots at one of them but missed, instead grazing a passer-by in the head, officials said Monday in announcing a takedown of some of the members. A member of the bungling gang that shot the innocent victim even admitted in a drill rap video just how badly the hit was botched — rapping, 'I don't know how we missed them,'' authorities said. Advertisement 'This is a lost generation,' Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark said at a press conference unveiling the sweeping 208-count indictment against 19 members of the warring 9Raq and Thirdside gangs — none older than 23, with the youngest just 16. 3 Bumbling members of two teenage gangs have been indicted for a slew of shootings that have mistakenly wounded three bystanders — and killed one of their own — in the past four years. Obtained by the NY Post 'Youth are shooting people right here, right outside our very courthouses,' Clark said. 'They turn 161st Street, two blocks from Yankee Stadium, into a war zone. Advertisement 'The Bronx is bleeding, and I'm doing everything within my power to make it stop.' The young thugs committed a slew of crimes ranging from murder to grand larceny over the past four years in neighborhoods such as Claremont and Belmont — with adult gang members passing them their loaded weapons to take advantage of the state's 'Raise the Age' law that protects minors, authorities said. But the move may have come with a price. Alleged 9Raq member Nixon Rodriguez was fatally shot by a member of his own young crew June 2, 2023, on Olinville Avenue during a failed mission in rival gang territory, prosecutors said. Advertisement Last month, a Thirdside defendant also posted a drill rap music video to his Instagram admitting he took part in a botched shootout with 9Raq near a middle school in the early afternoon of March 30, authorities said. At least 17 shots were fired, but none of them hit their intended rival gang members. Instead, a bullet grazed a 22-year-old man in the head as he was driving by the corner in his car, Clark said. 3 The young gangsters have brazenly turned some Bronx neighborhoods into their own shooting galleries. Bronx District Attorney 'I don't know how we missed them,' the Thirdside gang member allegedly rapped in the video. Advertisement Multiple bystanders have been hit during other shootouts between the gangs, too, authorities said. When the two gangs exchanged gunfire Aug. 2, 2022, on Finley Avenue, at least one of the shots struck a 34-year-old passer-by in the lower back, officials said. During another 2022 shooting, a 75-year-old innocent man was wounded in the thigh, Clark said. 3 Mayor Eric Adams, flanked by Bronx DA Darcel Clark and NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch, ripped the gangs for their 'reckless disregard' of their communities. Tomas E. Gaston Six people were arrested last week in the gangs' takedown, while four gang members remain on the lam, and 10 others are already behind bars for other charges, prosecutors said. 'There's an endless flow of young people who believe as though they don't have a stake in tomorrow, so they are creating a reckless disregard on our streets,' said Mayor Eric Adams at the press conference, which was also attended by NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch. 'And when a bullet leaves the pathway of a gun, it often hits an unintended target,' said Adams, a former cop. Adams, Clark and Tisch said the state needs to re-examine its 'Raise the Age' law, which changed the age at which a child can be prosecuted as an adult. That age went from 16 to 17 in 2018 and from 17 to 18 in 2019, allowing those under 18 to be turned over to the family court system instead of regular court, where they could face stiffer punishments if convicted. Advertisement 'One of [the indicted suspects] has allegedly pulled the trigger at least four times. These aren't kids who just made one mistake,' Tisch told reporters. 'The takeaway is clear,' she said. 'our Raise the Age law needs to be re-examined because it removed the criminal consequences that prevent teens from escalating violence until they or their rivals are either dead or facing adult sentences.' Out of the gang members arrested, three have been arraigned and held without bail, one has been arraigned with bail set, and another has been arrested and is pending arraignment. Advertisement An additional Jane Doe, who was a part of the takedown but not charged as a gang member, was arraigned and held on bail.

Wyndham Clark apologizes for damaging locker at U.S. Open: 'I made a mistake that I deeply regret'
Wyndham Clark apologizes for damaging locker at U.S. Open: 'I made a mistake that I deeply regret' When it comes to Wyndham Clark recently, the talk has been more about his on-course antics rather than the play of the former U.S. Open champion. He opened in 6-under 64 on Thursday at the 2025 Travelers Championship. And while he was asked a couple questions about his play, it didn't take long for the discussion to turn to six days ago, when Clark damaged lockers inside the Oakmont clubhouse after missing the cut. It was his second incident in as many majors this season of causing damage. At the PGA Championship in May, he caused damage to a T-Mobile sign. On Thursday, Clark apologized for what happened at the U.S. Open. "I've had a lot of highs and lows in my career, especially this year some lows. I made a mistake that I deeply regret. I'm very sorry for what happened," Clark said. "But I'd also like to move on, not only for myself but for Oakmont, for the USGA, and kind of focus on the rest of this year and things that come up. I still want to try to make the Ryder Cup team. I still am on the outside looking in for the FedExCup. So I'm starting to move on and focus on those things." Clark birdied four of his final six holes Thursday, and he sits two shots behind Austin Eckroat after the early wave at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut. As for the locker room incident, he's hoping to quickly put it in the rearview mirror.
