Arizona teen saved from overdose by online gaming friend 5,000 miles away
QUEEN CREEK, Ariz. - A Queen Creek teenager is alive today - thanks to the work of first responders and gamers from half a world away.The 15-year-old boy had reportedly been gaming online with some friends from Germany when he started talking about committing suicide.A friend called for help, and Queen Creek police would eventually visit the teenager's home to check on him.Body camera video showed his parents, unaware of the situation, letting the officer into the home. They found the teen lying unconscious in his room but still breathing.Police discovered that the teen had overdosed on an unknown number of pills, and Officer Sean Lopez reacted by spraying Narcan into the boy's nose.The teenager was able to slowly regain consciousness, and he was taken away by ambulance for further treatment.Queen Creek Police Chief Randy Brice applauded the Officer Lopez's quick response that saved the teen's life."The fact the officer got there that fast even though parents weren't aware and provide that intervention - even the fire department showed up very quickly - but again seconds count, and we do believe it was a great save on his part," Brice said.All Queen Creek officers, detectives and field workers carry at least two containers of Narcan for these situations.If you or a loved one is feeling distressed, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.

How much will home prices drop as interest rates rise? Depends where you live
interest rates rise and the post-pandemic market starts to materialize.But just how low prices will go depends on what part of the country you’re living in, with a recent report from Desjardins Economic Studies suggesting cities that saw the most growth in the pandemic now have the furthest to fall.Major Canadian housing markets including Toronto and Vancouver saw less sales activity and even price drops in April and May as the Bank of Canada began raising interest rates over the past three months. Bidding war no more — How to make an offer in Canada’s cooling housing market This “chillier wind,” as RBC economist Robert Hogue dubbed it in a report last week, is expected to continue driving home values down from their pandemic-era highs as demand softens and housing inventories are given time to rebuild.Randall Bartlett, senior director of Canadian Economics at Desjardins, tells Global News that rising interest rates are the “pin that’s bursting the housing bubble that developed during the pandemic.”The Desjardins report released this past week predicts that from the peak of national home prices in February of this year to the end of 2023, the average sale price in Canada will drop 15 per cent.Virtually all markets are expected to see some drops, but some could see value erode more rapidly.In the Maritimes, for example, prices in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are expected to fall 20 per cent over that timeframe.

Southwest can't be sued for death of passenger who Oakland flight crew thought was unruly
OAKLAND, Calif. - Southwest Airlines cannot be sued over the death of a passenger whose medical distress was mistaken for unruly behavior by a flight crew out of Oakland, a California appeals court ruled this week. The decision on Wednesday, reported by the Bay Area News Group, upheld an Alameda County trial court’s decision over what happened to Newport Beach resident Rich Ilczyszyn, 46 – a financial trader and CNBC contributor. He ended up suffering a deadly pulmonary embolism while on a flight from Oakland to Orange County on Sept. 19, 2014 – but the flight crew thought he was just being disruptive because of his odd behavior on the plane. His family had filed a wrongful-death suit against Southwest and the flight crew, saying Ilczyszyn died because the crew failed to give him any help. The trial jury returned a verdict that Southwest was negligent but that the negligence was not a substantial factor in Ilczyszyn’s death. That verdict was then appealed.In his family's original wrongful death suit against the airline, his lawyer, Daniel Balaban asked jurors to award Ilczyszyn's family a total of $63 million in damages.According to court records, flight attendants did not realize that Ilczyszyn needed any medical help – all they heard was him "grunting, growling [and] crying" and not complying with their requests to open the door. Southwest attorney Andrew Ryan argued that the crew deemed him a security threat.They called sheriff's deputies to meet them when they landed.

Two Jersey Shore towns go to court to block pop-up parties
LONG BRANCH, N.J. - Two popular Jersey Shore towns are going to court to try to block so-called "pop-up parties" at which thousands of people gather on the beach.They acted after previous events resulted in public drinking, drug use, fights and vandalism.At least two such parties planned for later this month are currently being advertised in online fliers that encourage attendees to bring their own liquor and marijuana, and promise public boxing matches.Long Branch is asking a court to block promoters of the parties from hosting any such event without first getting a permit from the city, and seeks financial damages from them stemming from a party they hosted last month.Point Pleasant Beach also plans to go to court against many of the same individuals by Monday.Long Branch’s lawsuit names six people from northern and central New Jersey as defendants. They could not be reached for comment Friday and several social media accounts that were attributed to them in court papers had been deleted as of Friday morning.Both towns were the site of past pop-up events officials say got out of hand and resulted in tens of thousands of dollars worth of expenses in police overtime costs alone."Enough is enough," said Long Branch Public Safety Director Domingos Saldida.
