OUTER BANKS, N.C. - A town on North Carolina's Outer Banks issued a public plea to beachgoers about the dangers of digging holes on the oceanfront just hours before a man died at a New Jersey beach when a hole collapsed on him.Officials from Kill Devil Hills posted a picture Tuesday on Facebook showing rescue supervisor David Elder standing in a large hole that he said was as much as 7 feet deep (2 meters) in some places.

Elder said he is 6 feet, 4 inches (193 centimeters) tall.Elder said ocean rescue staff had warned the people digging the hole about the dangers and they promised to fill it in before they left.

It was still there when he went by after work, he said."Some people said there was an issue, and sure enough, I could see it from where I was standing," he said in an interview with The Associated Press.FOX 29's Eddie Kadhim has the latest details on the tragic death of an 18-year-old boy on a New Jersey beach Tuesday night.Deep beach holes, in addition to possibly resulting in injuries for those who dig them, could delay or damage rescue vehicles operating on the beach, officials said in their online post.

They can also trap sea turtles and their hatchlings, leading to fatal results, the post said.A man commenting on the post mentioned that he broke his foot in four places and required two surgeries after stepping into a beach hole one night in 2017.Elder said because the ocean water is cold, beachgoers tend to seek "alternate entertainment.""Sadly, this is the way that people choose to spend their time," he said.Elder recalled how in the town of Kitty Hawk in 1999, a teenage girl was in a deep hole on the beach that was close to the water when a swell crashed in and filled it, covering her without a way to get.

Kobe & Gianna Bryant Dream Court opens at Tustin Playground in Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA - A new basketball court paying homage to Philadelphia-native, the late Kobe Bryant, and his daughter Gianna Bryant was unveiled at the Tustin Recreational Playground at 501 W Columbia Avenue in the city's Overbrook neighborhood. Vanessa Bryant and her daughters traveled to Philadelphia on Tuesday to unveil the new court with city leaders and charity partners. She says Philadelphia is where her late husband's love for basketball began and Tustin Playground is a place he frequented when he was younger. "I chose this location so that young people in this community may have a safe space to play with equal opportunity, which was important to Kobe and Gianna," Vanessa Bryant wrote on Instagram. Bryant partnered with Nancy Lieberman Charities' Dream Courts initiative, which strives to make basketball more accessible for children while providing them with a safe environment to play in. The first Kobe & Gianna Bryant Dream Court opened at Pearson Park in Anaheim, California in May. Kobe & Gianna Bryant were among the nine people killed in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California in January 2020. Since their passing, Vanessa Bryant has kept their memories alive through various charity projects including the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation, the MAMBACITA X DANNJO collection and the new Dream Courts initiative.
