In a tragic incident on Monday afternoon in Queens, a 13-year-old boy lost his life while riding on the back of a motorized scooter. The fatal accident occurred when the boy’s teenage friend, who was navigating the scooter, veered to avoid hitting an open car door and ended up crashing into a truck, according to police reports.

Authorities stated that the scooter, operated by another 13-year-old, was traveling southbound on 162nd Street near 45th Avenue in Flushing at approximately 12:40 p.m. The accident transpired as a driver exited a parked car, leaving the door ajar.

Faced with the sudden obstacle of an open car door, the young scooter driver attempted to steer clear. However, this quick maneuver led to a collision with a truck moving in the same direction, police reported.

The passenger was thrown from the scooter and tragically ended up making contact with the truck’s rear wheels, according to police statements.

Emergency services transported both boys to NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital. Sadly, the passenger did not survive his injuries, while the driver’s condition was reported as stable, authorities confirmed.

The truck driver stayed at the scene, authorities said. 

No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing, according to police.

In an unrelated incident in New Jersey, a middle school has recalled its yearbooks after administrators discovered that a photograph of Adolf Hitler was included in the baby pictures section.

“Earlier today, after distributing the yearbooks to students, we discovered that the baby pictures section included an image later identified as an infant photo of Adolf Hitler,” explained East Brook Middle School Principal Ryan Aupperlee in a June 25 letter to parents. This report, available on NorthJersey.com, details the swift action taken to reclaim the yearbooks and prevent further distribution of the image.

East Brook Middle School is located in Paramus, a township in Bergen County, northern New Jersey.

Paramus Mayor Chris DiPiazza addressed the yearbook incident, stating in a Facebook post on Friday, “I am aware of the unfortunate incident at East Brook Middle School yesterday and have been in communication with both the Superintendent of Schools and the Chief of Police. Our borough prides itself on being inclusive and welcoming to all faiths, with many places of worship. Incidents like yesterday’s do not reflect the values of Paramus. God bless.”

The incident prompted an investigation in Paramus. It was not immediately clear how the image was submitted, who was responsible for including it, or how it made it through the yearbook review process before the final copies were distributed.

The district is expected to determine next steps after reviewing how the photo appeared in the student publication. Law enforcement is investigating, too, according to the report.

“I want to be direct with you: the presence of this image is unacceptable,” Aupperlee’s said in his letter to parents. “Even if the image was not immediately recognizable to those paging through the book, its inclusion in an official school publication is a severe breach of our values. Adolf Hitler represents hatred, antisemitism, and the horrors of the Holocaust, including the murder of six million Jews. An image of him has no place in a yearbook created for our students. It does not reflect who we are or what East Brook stands for, and we condemn its inclusion without reservation.”

The returned yearbooks had already been signed by students and school staff, so those recalls will require some consideration on how the personal messages are kept.

“Thank you for your patience, understanding, and trust as we work to make this right,” Aupperlee’s letter concluded. “We remain committed to ensuring that our school reflects the values of respect, inclusion, and dignity for every member of our community.”

Dua Lipa and Callum Turner appeared every bit the blissful newlyweds as they arrived at New York’s airport on Monday.

The couple returned from their dreamlike honeymoon in Italy, following a lavish wedding earlier this month in Sicily, a celebration reported to have cost £1.5 million.

Dua, 30, displayed her style in a chic blue linen shirt paired with navy jeans and complemented by black heeled boots.

Callum, 36, couldn’t hide his happiness, smiling broadly as he held his new wife’s hand while departing the airport.

Upon landing in New York City, Dua took to Instagram to describe her honeymoon with Callum as “heaven on earth,” sharing new snapshots from their travels.

The new photo dump included a nude snap of the Training Season singer as she luxuriates in a bubble bath at La Posta Vecchia hotel, a Renaissance villa located just outside Rome, which was once the seaside home of J. Paul Getty. 

The couple stayed in the renowned Getty Suite overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea with the vast marble bath taking pride of place in the room. 

Another photo shows Dua showing off her wedding ring as she plays a card game with her husband and soaks up the sunshine on board a yacht in a lingerie-style bikini. 

Callum also proudly holds up his gold wedding band to camera during a romantic sunset dinner with his wife. 

One photo shows a grinning Dua proudly supporting SSC Napoli, teaming a football shirt from the Naples team with her skimpy bikini.

Dua tagged Hotel Il Pellicano in the post, another five star hotel located in Tuscany’s Maremma region.

The idyllic honeymoon has seen the couple travel along the Amalfi coast before heading to Rome where they were seen amongst tourists, paying for a pair of tickets to capture a photo beside the Trevi Fountain.

They also made a stop in Naples and enjoyed a stay in Taormina, checking into the San Domenico Palace, the hotel made famous by The White Lotus 2. 

Earlier this month, three days after they officially married at Marylebone town hall in London, Dua and Callum jetted off to the island of Sicily for their three-day party based in the town of Palermo.

The celebrations were held in the historical Villa Valguarnera where a blessing was held for the couple, who met in January 2024 at a party in Los Angeles where they bonded over reading the same novel, Trust by Hernan Diaz.

One Kiss singer Dua’s close friend Sir Elton John performed his hit Your Song, while fellow pop star Charli XCX and fashion icon Donatella Versace were also guests.

Dua looked incredible in a haute couture Chanel gown by designer Matthieu Blazy, finally revealing photos of her look on Instagram.  

The backless halterneck gown, embellished with thousands of silver and white beads, had a huge train covered in 25,000 feathers. 

She wore a plume of feathers in her hair which were joined to her cathedral veil which took 3,220 hours to embroider. Callum, meanwhile, cut a dapper figure in a bespoke Louis Vuitton suit.

The night before they hosted a cocktail party at the Galleria Moderna where the bride stunned in a custom made Bottega Veneta dress and a matching handbag. 

Dua was given away by her father Dukagjin, who also acts as her manager while Callum’s beloved mother, the former nightclub doorwoman Rose Turner, was also handed a ‘special’ role at the wedding.

Sources close to the couple say that they are looking forward to ‘having babies’.

One friend told the Daily Mail: ‘They are so in love, they want to be together forever and they want to be parents in the not too distant future. They are both so family orientated. It’s so exciting.’

It has also been revealed that the couple are planning to relocate to the States for seven months.

Callum has landed two back-to-back shoots that require him to work across the pond, and Dua wants to be by his side.

The Bond frontman will first be filming a remake of the 1981 horror Possession, in which he will star alongside Margaret Qualley.

Up next is baseball film The Comebacker, in which Tom Hanks will play his pitching coach.

After revealing they are relocating, Callum mused: ‘We work jobs where we have to go around the world.’

He added to The Hollywood Reporter: ‘It’s important when we are home in London to be with our friends as much as possible.

‘We make sure that we’re together as much as possible.’
