Police hunt for e-bike riders suspected of injuring baby with fire extinguisher
Police have released footage of the pair of e-bike riders they believe are responsible for injuring a baby when they sprayed a fire extinguisher into a car on Queensland's Sunshine Coast. Investigators have launched a public appeal to identify the boys following the "horrific" incident that left the five-month-old girl in hospital. Tiffani Teasdale and her daughter Pixie were waiting at traffic lights on High Street in Sippy Downs at about 7:45pm on Sunday night. Ms Teasdale said an e-bike pulled up next to the car and that a fire extinguisher was sprayed through the back window. Pixie was taken to hospital where doctors cleaned her eyes with saline solution. Police have confirmed the fire extinguisher used in the incident was stolen from a nearby car park on Courage Street earlier that night. The riders, who wore full-face motorcycle helmets and black puffer jackets, were filmed by a security camera. Anyone who recognise the people or the bike in the footage is urged to contact police.

Spectator at ATP event in Halle hit by falling advertising banner
A female spectator was taken to hospital after being struck when an advertising banner came loose from the upper tier during Alexander Zverev's match with Marcos Giron at the Terra Wortmann Open in Halle. The 62-year-old local woman was sitting in the lower tier and left the OWL Arena holding an ice pack against her neck handed to her by Zverev. The tournament website said the woman did not suffer any major injuries but was taken to a nearby hospital to be checked 'for safety reasons'. Tournament director Ralf Weber said: 'We deeply regret the incident. There has never been anything like this in our 32-year tournament history.' Weber said he had promised the woman a season ticket for next year as a small token of appreciation. Event managers Dr Udo Kleine and Uwe Greipel-Dominik said neighbouring boards were checked after the incident before the match was given the go ahead to continue. A joint statement from Kleine and Greipel-Dominik on the tournament website said: 'We suspect that the drumming against the boards caused screws to come loose. 'This must not happen and we apologise. We will also check all the other boards and their fixings immediately after the Zverev match.' The incident at the ATP 500 grass event round-of-32 tie happened with home favourite Zverev 5-2 ahead and serving for the first set. Second seed Zverev went on to triumph in 6-2 6-1 in returning to winning ways just three days after his Stuttgart Open final defeat to Taylor Fritz. Eighth seed Karen Khachanov also impressed with a 7-5 6-3 victory over Libema Open finalist Zizou Bergs to set up a second-round meeting with Felix Auger-Aliassime.
