Mexican authorities rescue 3,400 trafficked baby turtles
MEXICO CITY - Mexican authorities said they had rescued over 3,400 protected baby turtles stuffed into cardboard boxes set to be trafficked. During a roadblock in the southern state of Chiapas, agents found the critters "in overcrowded conditions" in boxes in a vehicle whose driver was arrested on wildlife trafficking charges, the environmental protection prosecutor's office said in a statement. The baby animals were freshwater Meso-American sliders, native to Mexico, Central America and Colombia. They are protected in Mexico against overexploitation. "The specimens were transported without documentation proving their legal origin, which constitutes a violation of environmental regulations," the prosecutor's office said. The turtles were taken to a specialised unit for rehabilitation and to determine whether they can be released back into the wild.

US singer Chris Brown pleads not guilty to assault charge in UK court
US singer Chris Brown on Friday pleaded not guilty to attacking a music producer with a bottle in a London nightclub two years ago. Brown is charged with attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm in what prosecutors said was an 'unprovoked attack' on Abraham Diaw in the nightclub in 2023. The 36-year-old appeared at London's Southwark Crown court, where he denied the charge. His trial was scheduled to begin on October 26 2026. The R&B star, a two-time Grammy Award winner known for hits such as Loyal, Run It and Under the Influence , was granted bail in May after promising to pay a £5m (R121.5m) security fee to begin his Breezy Bowl XX tour.
