Someone fired several shots at a pizza restaurant in Miami, and now officials are asking for the public’s help in locating that shooter. According to North Miami Police, the shooting occurred at Steve’s Pizza at 12101 Biscayne Blvd. on Wednesday, March 15, just before 12:30 a.m., and the man caught on camera firing the gun was allegedly aiming for a rival.Police said the subject, wearing a hood and mask, entered the restaurant and appeared to look for someone. In the surveillance video sent to 7News, the subject could be seen inside the restaurant pulling out a firearm from his waistband. The subject then walked back to an outdoor area of the restaurant and fired several rounds outside. Customers scramble away, one pushing a seat into the path of the potential shooter.Others bolt out, with one man still holding his order, before the one everyone’s afraid of also exits and fires off at least a couple shots.Nobody was hit or hurt … or identified or caught.Anyone who can pr...Crews busy at Boston City Hall as filming continues for movie starring Matt Damon, Casey Affleck

Crews were busy getting Boston City Hall ready for its closeup Friday as film activity continued in connection with a movie starring Matt Damon and Casey Affleck. Film crews were seen outside around city hall Friday afternoon decorating the grounds with fake snow a day after crews were seen putting up banners and other materials in the area on Thursday. The movie “The Instigators” has brought local stars Damon and Affleck back to Boston this week, drawing crowds on multiple occasions. The pair were spotted on Cambridge Street on Wednesday filming one scene. They were in Back Bay on Thursday before crews moved to Boston’s Fort Point neighborhood Thursday night to film an action scene. A 7NEWS camera was in Fort Point, capturing video of an armored vehicle barreling through a gate in the area around Binford Street before filming wrapped up for the day around 7:30 p.m. Thursday. Elsewhere, in the North End, Bova’s Bakery has been temporarily closed this week to make...Yankees Notebook: Anthony Volpe Builds Case With Home Run-Producing Adjustment

TAMPA – Pablo Lopez got Anthony Volpe swinging with his sweeper in the first inning Friday. In the third, it was the prospect who made the Twins’ Opening Day starter pay.Volpe, just 21 and vying to be the Yankees’ starting shortstop, drove a nearly identical pitch to center field on the first offering of his second at-bat in the Yankees’ 6-4 spring training loss to the Twins. The two-run shot, Volpe’s third of the spring, caught the eye of his manager as the Yankees weigh some big decisions with camp nearing its end.“He went to school on it and made whatever small adjustment he needed to and really, really leaned on it,” Aaron Boone said after the game at George M. Steinbrenner Field.“He’s a heady, smart player, but he’s a good player. So it’s like he’s got the equipment to go do things, but he processes things really well. He learns. He adjusts really well.”Volpe, meanwhile, praised Lopez’s sweeper ...Celtics’ Robert Williams talks recent hamstring injury, potential bench role as playoffs near

This has not been the season Robert Williams envisioned.The Celtics center’s sudden knee surgery on the eve of training camp cost him the first 29 games of the season. A recent hamstring injury forced him out for eight. Williams has shown flashes of his irreplaceable ability, but hasn’t gained a consistent rhythm. But asked Friday how he’s viewed his season to date, he wasn’t quite in the mood for reflection yet.“Ask me at the end of the summer and I can answer that a little bit better,” Williams said with a smile.Williams certainly isn’t done with the story of his season yet. He’s back healthy, and though he’s missed 44 games, knows the most important games are ahead. His return in Tuesday’s win at Sacramento was a reminder of how dominant the Celtics can be when they’re whole, and why they’re such a championship threat. With Williams in and out of the lineup all year – as well as others – it’s been hard for the C’s to find that form consistently.Now is the time for the Celti...Beethoven’s hair: How a museum docent turned genetic researcher debunked a famous relic

SAN JOSE — Tristan Begg was an anthropology student at UC Santa Cruz and a Beethoven fanatic when he volunteered as a docent at San Jose State University’s Beethoven center in the summer of 2009.He would pull out the drawer holding a lock of hair and tell visitors, “This is real” and that it once was on the head of the greatest composer who ever lived, the one whose music changed Begg’s life when he heard the first notes of Moonlight Sonata on Christmas morning at age 17.“It was instantaneous. I was astounded. I’ve never heard anything like it,” he said. “It was an instant sort of obsession.”Now, 14 years later, Begg, a Ph.D student at the University of Cambridge, is the lead author on a genome research study that debunked the story he once told. The hair is a fake.The findings, published this week in the journal Current Biology, revealed new insights about the life and death of Ludwig van Beethoven. Five other locks of hair were authenticated, including another one recently acquire...Graze Craze: Charcuterie board utopia opens first San Diego location

SAN DIEGO – Walking in the Embarcadero area of downtown, it’s hard to miss the towering ships of the Maritime Museum lining the edge of the bay’s waters.The museum has been a focal point of the San Diego neighborhood since its founding, collecting one of the largest collections of historical sea vessels in the country. Most locals are quite familiar with the ships’ presence and history in the bay, but the vessels carry with them a lesser known history intertwined with San Diego’s background as an extension of Hollywood.From the days of silent films to the first colored pictures, the bay has been at the heart of San Diego’s appeal to Hollywood, given the ease at which film and TV productions could access waterside filming. How artists transformed the Spanish Village in Balboa Park Established in 1948, the Maritime Museum has been around almost as long as the film industry has existed in San Diego, current Museum president and CEO, Ray Ashely, told FOX5SanDiego.com.Since the fi...DEA overseas review barely mentions corruption scandals

NEW YORK (AP) — After nearly two years and at least $1.4 million spent, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration on Friday released an external review of its overseas operations that barely mentioned recent corruption scandals and offered recommendations that critics dismissed as overly vague.Much of the 50-page report outlines the DEA’s sprawling, 69-country “foreign footprint,” while lauding its efforts to plug gaping holes in the oversight of undercover money laundering operations and special vetted units overseas.“This report is stunningly vague in its actual evaluation of known problems at the DEA and remedies to fix them,” said Sen. Chuck Grassley, an Iowa Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee. “This speaks to the agency’s broader effort to evade oversight. The agency has attempted to dodge my oversight inquiries but I intend to push forward.”The external probe was announced in 2021 following reporting by The Associated Press on the crimes ...17-year-old charged in kidnapping ending in Houston shooting

A 17-year-old has been charged with kidnapping two migrants whose rescue this week from a Houston hotel by FBI agents after days of captivity ended in gunfire that killed another suspect. Josiah Jackson was charged Friday with two counts of aggravated kidnapping in the abduction of a man and woman and the attempt to ransom them, Harris County court records show. The case filings do not list an attorney for Jackson, who is being held in a county jail ahead of a bond hearing.The migrants were stopped on a highway northwest of Houston on Saturday and were forced into another vehicle by the kidnappers, according to a prosecutor. Officials have said little about what happened between then and Thursday morning, when the FBI says its agents rescued two migrants following the shooting in north Houston.The FBI and various local law enforcement agencies offered little additional information Friday and the terse court records didn’t reveal much more.Senior Deputy Thomas Gilliland, a spok...Latest news
