A stage truss collapsed on the night of Friday, August 15, during a beer festival in Mianzhu city in China’s Sichuan province, killing two people and injuring three others. The truss was part of a temporary outdoor setup for the event. According to reports, fierce winds and heavy rain hit the area suddenly, causing the metal structure to buckle and fall into the crowded festival space. While stage truss systems are common for concerts and outdoor festivals, they are particularly vulnerable to severe weather if not reinforced.

Dust devils form when hot air rises quickly in dry conditions, creating a whirlwind that looks like a tornado but is usually far less dangerous.

A passenger captures the moment a federal officer fires shots at their moving vehicle. The incident occurred when the driver refused to roll down their window during an immigration stop in Southern California.

After the driver’s side window was broken by an officer, the car sped off.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security confirmed the situation. The DHS said that the driver struck two U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents, prompting one agent to discharge his weapon. No one was hit by the bullets.
