- Three people were seriously injured in a fire Thursday night in the West Garfield Park neighborhood. The fire started around 11:30 p.m. at an apartment building in the 4700 block of West Ohio Street, according to police. A 33-year-old man suffered burns to his arms and face. He was taken to Loyola Hospital where he was listed in critical condition. An 81-year-old man and a 64-year-old woman were taken to Mount Sinai Hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation.

When Alicia Fivecoat, a mom of two, felt a golf ball-sized mass under her arm late last year, she said she was devastated to learn just weeks later that she had breast cancer. In January, Fivecoat, now 62, was getting bloodwork done at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston when she got news that would upend her own battle with cancer.

In a post on X, Polis praised Kennedy as someone who "helped us defeat vaccine mandates in Colorado in 2019" and someone who will "make America healthy again by shaking up HHS and FDA." Furthermore, Polis said he hopes Kennedy will not enact vaccine bans—and instead lean into "personal choice on vaccines." 'Full House' star Dave Coulier has been diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The actor and comedian told People magazine that he was diagnosed in October after an upper respiratory infection caused swelling in his lymph nodes, leading his doctor to advise that he get PET and CT scans and a biopsy. The actor explained, "Three days later, my doctors called me back and they said, 'We wish we had better news for you, but you have non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and it's called B cell and it's very aggressive.'" A woman and a man were shot and wounded and a nearby school was put into lockdown after a shooting broke out in Coney Island Thursday, cops said. Shots were fired at Surfside Gardens, a NYCHA housing complex on W. 31st St. near Mermaid Ave., at about 12:30 p.m. Bullets struck a 22-year-old woman in the buttocks and a 32-year-old man in the right hand, police said.
