Social media is flooding with videos from the event… including fans jumping the stage to try and stop the show

#Astroworld has over 1.6 billion views on tiktok alone., with fans encouraging each other to remove the rapper from their Spotify playlists

Former UK ambassador Peter Mandelson arrested in London linked to Epstein and alleged misconduct, denies any wrongdoing.

London’s Metropolitan Police have arrested Peter Mandelson, Britain’s former ambassador to the United States, as part of an investigation into his alleged connections with Jeffrey Epstein. The arrest has triggered major political shockwaves across Westminster and beyond.

Lord Mandelson was detained on suspicion of misconduct in public office, with investigators examining claims he may have leaked market-sensitive information to Epstein during his time as a government minister. Authorities also executed search warrants at properties in Wiltshire and Camden as the probe widened.

Mandelson, who was dismissed by Prime Minister Keir Starmer and resigned from the House of Lords in February while retaining his title, has denied any wrongdoing as legal scrutiny intensifies.

A man in his early 20s has been shot and killed after breaching the secure perimeter at President Trump’s Mar a Lago residence in Florida, according to the Secret Service. Officials say the president and first lady Melania Trump were in Washington DC at the time of the incident.

Authorities report the man was armed with a shotgun and a petrol canister when he approached the north gate. He was confronted by a sheriff’s deputy and two Secret Service agents who ordered him to drop the items before the situation rapidly escalated.

After putting down the petrol can, the man allegedly pointed the shotgun at officers, who then opened fire. Law enforcement says there was no immediate danger to anyone inside the property.
