Rubber bales from WWII-era German cargo ship wash up along Texas beaches

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas - A stroll along the Texas coastline may provide you with sights of sargassum seaweed, but on rare occasions, beachgoers have stumbled upon cargo from a World War II-era shipwreck that continues to occasionally float ashore.Visitors at Mustang Island State Park, outside of Corpus Christi, Texas, are the latest to discover one of the unassuming bales that were washed ashore by the currents of the Gulf of Mexico.A park ranger took to the site’s social media to show off the discovery and to point out that there is always the chance of something more substantial than a seashell or a patch of seaweed on the sand.According to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, it is running off the assumption the bale is tied to similar discoveries over the years across the Gulf Coast as well as Central and South America.March 30, 2022: A mass of rubber washed ashore South Texas (Padre Island National Seashore / FOX Weather) Jace Tunnell, a reserve director at the University of Texas’s Marine Science Institute, has studied several of these sightings and previously tied occurrences to an old shipwreck off of Brazil."These are folded rubber mats that have been put together and then wrapped again with a big one. And so, these are actually thought to be from a 1944 ship," Tunnel previously stated in a video for the Mission-Aransas National Estuarine Research Reserve.

Details emerge about how 2 men may have escaped Philadelphia prison

PHILADELPHIA - Two Philadelphia prisoners were able to leave their holding cells and walk through an unmanned housing unit before escaping to freedom through a hole in a perimeter fence, according to a new report obtained Tuesday by FOX 29.Ameen Hurst, 18, and Nasir Grant, 28, sprung themselves free from the Philadelphia Industrial Correctional Center around 8:30 Sunday night, investigators said. Prisons Commissioner Blanche Carney told reporters the duo missed three headcounts before prison guards realized they were missing Monday afternoon."That’s part of our investigation, to see what happened, what was followed, what wasn’t followed," said Commissioner Carney who told reporters investigators are "combing through the timeline" of events that lead to Hurst and Grant's escape. The hole that Hurst and Grant used to escape was cut with an unknown tool, according to Commissioner Carney, and the fence that was compromised was not equipped with an alarm that would have notified prison guards about a possible escape.Ameen Hurst (left), Nasir Grant (right) Authorities are particularly urgent to get Hurst back into custody due to his violent past.
