A driver was arrested after leading police on a chase in a stolen vehicle and attempted to flee but ended up jumping into sticker bushes. The chase started in the area of C St S and Military Rd S in Spanaway/Parkland in Washington, USA, when a patrol deputy initiated a traffic stop on the swerving pickup truck on 27th February. However, the driver refused to pull over and hit a curb while trying to turn onto Military Rd S. The deputy pursued him after suspecting that he was impaired. The chase continued until a Lakewood officer deployed stop sticks, causing the truck to slow down. The deputy then used a PIT manoeuvre to bring it to a complete stop. The suspect then fled on foot but was eventually surrounded and caught by deputies. A records check revealed that the pickup truck had been reported stolen. The suspect was booked into jail for DUI, eluding, possession of a stolen vehicle, and resisting arrest.

This is the moment El Chapo's trusted henchman is led in chains to a police vehicle to be handed over to the American authorities for extradition to the USA. The head of security for El Chapo Guzman, named as Jorge Ivan Gastelum Avila, has been flown to America to face justice, Mexican officials revealed on Sunday, 2nd April. Gastelum Avila, nicknamed 'El Cholo Ivan', is accused of being central to the trafficking of huge quantities of drugs to the USA. Video footage of his final moments in a Mexican jail shows him in a grey prison jumpsuit with steel leg shackles as he is walked towards a police van. Around his waist, a second set of shackles secure his hands as he moves slowly forward surrounded by police officers. The gangster was handed over to the American authorities at the Mexico City International Airport, according to the Mexican Attorney General's Office. His former boss El Chapo is already serving a life sentence in the supermax jail ADX Florence in Colorado. Newsflash obtained a statement from the Mexican Attorney General's Office dated Sunday, 2nd April, saying: "In compliance with the Extradition Treaty signed between Mexico and the United States of America, the Attorney General's Office of the Republic (FGR), delivered to the government of that country a fugitive of Mexican nationality requested by the Federal District Court for the District of Columbia, United States of America for the crimes of criminal association, against health and using, brandishing and discharging a firearm. "Jorge 'G.' is accused of belonging to a criminal organisation and one of the leaders of the Sinaloa [cartel]; responsible for the trafficking of various amounts of drugs to the United States of America. "The Government of Mexico granted the extradition of the defendant to the Government of the United States of America. "The fugitive was handed over at the Mexico City International Airport (AICM) to the US agents designated for his transfer to that country." The ruthless gangster will face charges in a New York court, including criminal association in order to distribute cocaine and cannabis in the US. American investigators say El Cholo Ivan controlled drug trafficking in Guamuchil, in the Mexican state of Sinaloa, and commanded an armed group of around 200 men. They say he also provided security for El Chapo. The same investigation found that El Cholo Ivan attacked rival criminal organisations, as well as Mexican law enforcement to carry out his boss' orders. He was arrested along with El Chapo on 8th January 2016 on the Los Mochis-Navojoa highway.

Antiquities experts have put on show a stunning display of ancient Roman gold jewellery buried with a young girl to save her from evil spirits in the afterlife. The haul was originally found in a lead-lined coffin which had been buried nearly 2,000 years ago. But astonishingly, it had been left gathering dust on an archive shelf in Israel for more than 50 years. The treasures had been discovered in a burial cave on Mount Scopus in 1971 by the late archaeologist Yael Adler. The jewellery includes gold earrings, a hairpin, a gold pendant and gold beads, carnelian beads and a glass bead. The items inside were inscribed with symbols of Luna - the Roman moon goddess - and were believed to have the ability to provide protection in the afterlife. After their discovery, the relics were noted and archived and then apparently completely forgotten. It was not until experts from the Israeli Antiquities Authority set up a project to discover lost treasures that they re-emerged. Now the jewellery is on display to the public for the first time at the 48th Archaeological Congress organized by the Israel Antiquities Authority, the Israel Exploration Society and the Israel Archaeological Association. Eli Escusido, Director of the Israel Antiquities Authority, is quoted in a statement obtained by Newsflash from Israel Antiquities Authority as saying: “The interring of the jewellery together with the young girl is touching. "One can imagine that their parents or relatives parted from the girl, either adorned with the jewellery, or possibly lying by her side, and thinking of the protection that the jewellery provided in the world to come.” The experts believe the girl probably had the jewellery in her lifetime, and after her death it was buried with her for protection. According to the research, two similar gold earrings were discovered in another excavation carried out by Prof. Vassilios Tzaferis on behalf of the Department of Antiquities on the Mount of Olives in 1975. The statement says: "It seems that the girl was buried with an expensive set of gold jewellery that included earrings, a chain with a lunula pendant (named after the goddess Luna), and a hairpin,” according to a report by the researchers. They continued: “These items of jewellery are known in the Roman world and are characteristic of young girl burials, possibly providing evidence of the people who were buried at these sites. Late Roman Jerusalem—renamed Aelia Capitolina—had a mixed population that reached the city after the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple and the evacuation of the Jewish population. "People from different parts of the Roman Empire settled in the city, bringing with them a different set of values, beliefs and rituals. The pagan cult of the city’s new population was rich and varied, including gods and goddesses, among them the cult of the moon goddess Luna.”

But before a nearby Atlanta Police Department (ADP) Unit, in Georgia State, USA, could react, Carter - having anticipated the outcome - hit the brakes and led officers into a high-speed chase on Thursday, 23rd March. He reportedly drove into a nearby neighbourhood in the area of Oak Drive, where he parked his car and rushed out to a house next door, as the APD Air Unit followed him. But as Carter got close to the residence, the APD officers caught up and and continued chasing him into the backyard of his grandmother's house. The brief foot-chase ended after officers caught and apprehended Carter after he finally quit running. He was later charged with multiple traffic violations and obstruction, in addition to his outstanding warrant for aggravated assault.

"We're grateful that this was able to end in a safe return for the missing person and his family."

Officers in Arizona arrested an armed shooter who was reportedly part of a family dispute before heading to a nearby convenience store and shooting a man, as these images show. Body-worn footage shows officers apprehending the suspect - whose identity was not revealed - after a dramatic standoff in Glendale, Arizona on 14th March. The incident began as multiple calls came in from the home where the family fight occurred, claiming the man was armed with a gun and knife and threatening others. Upon arrival, officers heard gunshots from a nearby convenience store and discovered that the same man was involved in both incidents. With the help of a police helicopter, the man was located on Mariposa Street, armed with a handgun. After a tense standoff, during which the man pointed the gun at his head and then at the officers, two officers discharged their weapons. The suspect was ultimately apprehended with the assistance of a less-lethal Taser deployment. The man was transported to a local hospital for medical treatment before being booked into jail on multiple charges. He was not injured by officers' gunshots, according to reports. The victim of the convenience store shooting was treated for non-life-threatening injuries and has since been released. An internal investigation is underway to determine if the officers' actions were consistent with department policy and the law.

This is the impressive moment an ex-convict and robbery suspect gets arrested by an officer following a dramatic foot chase. The 33-year-old suspect - who identity was not revealed - caught the attention of a Special Investigations Unit (SIU) sergeant who reportedly spotted him getting inside a stolen pickup truck on 14th March. The truck had been stolen at gunpoint 12 days earlier in Edgewood. SIU deputies observed a known violent offender enter the truck and drive away before initiating a pursuit. The chase escalated when the suspect rammed two patrol cars, then leaped onto a patrol car and continued hopping from car to car to evade arrest. The SIU sergeant, a former college track star, managed to catch up with the suspect as he jumped over a fence. A patrol deputy then used a taser to subdue the suspect, who was subsequently taken into custody. A gun was discovered inside the truck, and the 33-year-old suspect faces multiple charges, including two counts of assault and obstructing. The bail was reportedly set at USD 75,000 (GBP 60,000). The suspect, classified as a high-priority offender, has a history of convictions dating back to 2009 and remains in custody.

These images show a brave Florida police officer wrestling with a very angry alligator measuring nearly 10 feet long. The incident took place on a street in Tampa, in the US state of Florida, on Wednesday, 29th March. The footage shows the police officer going toe to tail with the alligator in the middle of the road as his colleagues watch on. At one point, he requests a rope from another officer, which he manages to tie around the reptile's snout. He then jokingly asks one of his colleagues if he wants to "jump on him" before proceeding to grab the alligator by its tail. The bold officer then discusses a plan to subdue the reptile, saying that he will sit on top of it himself. The images then show him jumping on its back and pinning its head down. The alligator can be heard growling angrily at being manhandled, but the officer manages to shut its mouth with the help of the rope. He then requests some sticky tape from his colleagues, adding that he needs to put something over its eyes so that it will "chill out". The officers then proceed to put a towel over the alligator's head in a bid to calm it down. They can then be seen taping its mouth shut with duct tape. The officer sitting on top of the alligator then instructs one of his colleagues to tape the angry reptile's hind legs, just as if he were handcuffing a suspect. The officer then attempts to remove the rope from around the alligator's head, but it is jammed inside its jaw, so they decide to cut it instead. The officers then put a little bit more tape around the alligator's mouth before putting a single piece over its eyes. As if it can sense what is next, the alligator can be heard hissing loudly as a man opens a pickup truck boot in which to place the animal as the footage ends. Newsflash obtained a statement from Tampa Police Department on Wednesday, 29th March, saying: "Early this morning, Tampa Police Department officers wrangled up a gator who was roaming the streets near W. Kathleen St and N. Howard Ave. "No alligators (or officers) were injured in this 'jaw-dropping' video. The growling gator was taken for a ride by our partners from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to find a more suitable home."

The police thought they were quacking up when they were called to an emergency at a swimming pool - to rescue a mother duck and her ducklings. The birds had piled into the open-air pool in Seminole County, in the US state of Florida, after apparently losing their way to their pond. So officers were scrambled to pluck the ducks out of the pool and take them back to their home. Adorable police bodycam footage shows the officers scooping up the four ducklings as they waddle around the grounds jumping in and out of the pool. One officer is seen cooing to a tiny duckling in her hand as the youngster's irritated mother runs around her. Finally, the mother and her offspring are rounded up and taken back to their own natural pond. Newsflash obtained a statement from the Seminole County Sheriff's Office on Wednesday, 29th March, along with a statement saying: "Watch two of our Deputies, Alexandria Mullis and Rachelle Marshall, as they help to save four baby ducks stuck in a pool in Winter Springs. "Their mother was a little irritated, but we think she'll forgive us after everyone was sent on their way safe and sound."

This apocalyptic footage shows a wildfire raging near a village in eastern Spain, even though it has only just turned spring. The footage was filmed in Villanueva de Viver, Castellon Province, and posted online on 27th March. The Castellon Province Fire Department said in a statement obtained by Newsflash: "We would not have liked to have to record these images. "Unfortunately, meteorology has once again been the great ally of Villanueva de Viver wildfire. "Today, the priority is on defending population centres such as Montan and Fuente la Reina. We are heading into the fifth night of the fire." Local media reported that firefighters battled to stop the flames from reaching the population centre of Montan. They also worked round the clock to prevent the fire from spreading to the Sierra de Espadan natural park and nearby cattle farms. Montan was evacuated on 24th March, with mayor Sergio Fornas telling local media: "Years ago, there was already a pretty big fire and we are always in the same situation because everything is very dry and abandoned. "When it comes to cleaning up the forests, we don't have any help and it's something we must change together. "They don't let us do what we would like to do, we want to protect the forests but we encounter many bureaucratic problems." He said that the evacuation "was not easy because there were many elderly people and we have, for example, 70 people in the nursing home". He also said that town halls should have more facilities "to create a firebreak or cut down a pine forest". The mayor added: "They don't let you because they think they are protecting it, but it's a nightmare and then what happens, happens." The villages of Torralba del Pinar, Pavias, and Higueras were also evacuated, while inhabitants of Caudiel were ordered to remain indoors. Local weather conditions on 27th March saw gusts of more than 50 km/h (31 mph) and less than 20 per cent humidity. The government of the Valencia region said the conditions were "testing the agencies involved in the extinction". Gusts of more than 70 km/h (43 mph) and less than 20 per cent humidity is forecasted for today (30th March) and tomorrow. Some 300 ground troops and 17 aerial units are still tackling the flames, which have scorched 4,700 hectares (11,614 acres) of land to date. As of 27th March, 1,700 people had been evacuated from their homes.

This dramatic footage shows LAPD officers capturing a suspect wanted for vehicle theft with the help of the K9 unit. It began when patrolling officers received a report about a burglary from a motor vehicle at the 3700 block of Pasadena Avenue in Los Angeles, in the US State of California on 19th February. Upon arrival, officers received a suspect description from the reporting person. The suspect, later identified as Ricardo Penaloza, was spotted nearby and fled on foot before driving away in a dark-coloured Chevrolet pick-up truck at high speed. Officers initiated a vehicle pursuit that ended when Penaloza lost control, veered off the road, and crashed into a ravine. Penaloza fled the scene on foot, prompting a K9 search of the surrounding neighbourhood. He was eventually found hiding in a crawl space under a residence and sustained an injury during the K9 contact. Penaloza surrendered and was transported to a local hospital for treatment. No officers were reported injured during the incident. The investigation is ongoing.

Archaeologists in Israel have found a 6,000-year-old copper fishhook so large it may have been used to catch sharks. The piece, which was unearthed during infrastructure work in the coastal city of Ashkelon, is 2.6 inches long and 1.6 inches wide. Its size means it would have been used to catch sharks or other large fish in the Mediterranean during the Copper Age. Yael Abadi-Reiss from the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA), who called the find "luck, pure luck", commented on how well-preserved the piece was given its age. She said: "It was so big and beautiful that we thought it might be from another period but it wasn't." The fishhook had turned green, but the researchers cleaned it. Abadi-Reiss said: "It's so big that even if its external coating was damaged, a lot remained." In a statement obtained by Newsflash, the IAA said: "A 6,000-year-old copper fishhook - one of the oldest known in the world - possibly for fishing sharks or very large fish, was discovered in the Israel Antiquity Authority excavations carried out prior to the construction of the new Agamim neighborhood in Ashkelon in 2018." According to Dr Yael Abadi-Reiss, co-director of the excavation together with Dr Daniel Varga, both from the Israel Antiquity Authority: "This unique find is 6.5 cm long and 4 cm wide, its large dimensions making it suitable for hunting 2-3 m long sharks or large tuna fish. "More ancient fishhooks found previously were made of bone and were much smaller than this one. "The use of copper began in the Chalcolithic period and it is fascinating to discover that this technological innovation was applied in antiquity for the production of fishhooks for fishermen along the Mediterranean coast." The IAA said: "In the Chalcolithic period, there were large villages around Ashkelon, whose economy was based on branches of agriculture still common today, such as the pasturing of sheep, goat and cattle, the cultivation of wheat, barley and legumes and the tending of fruit orchards." Dr Abadi-Reiss said: "We learn about the dietary habits of the people who lived here 6,000 years ago from the remains of animal bones found in ancient rubbish pits, from burnt wheat grains found in ovens, and from the hunting, cooking and food-processing tools retrieved, including flint sickles, and a variety of pottery vessels that served for the storage, cooking and the conservation of food by fermentation and salting. "The rare fishhook tells the story of the village fishermen who sailed out to sea in their boats and cast the newly invented copper fishhook into the water, hoping to add coastal sharks to the menu." The IAA said: "The research on the copper fishhook is being undertaken by Dr. Yotam Asscher of the Israel Antiquity Authority and Magda Batiashvilli, and we await new discoveries on this fascinating artifact."

This dramatic footage shows an Arizona cop shooting a man who attacked him while the officer was investigating a report about the man's "disruptive behaviour". The incident took place near 27th Avenue and McDowell Road in Phoenix, Arizona State on 8th March. The officer responded to two calls at a local business, one from a man wanting to turn himself in and another from an employee reporting the man's disruptive behaviour. When the officer arrived, he escorted the man outside, where the suspect attacked the officer, prompting him to use his taser. After the suspect continued his assault, the officer fired his duty weapon in self-defence. The suspect was treated on the scene and transported to a hospital in serious but stable condition. An internal and criminal investigation is underway to determine if the officer's actions were consistent with department policy and the law. The officer, with six years of service, is assigned to the Maryvale Estrella Mountain Precinct.
