Out-of-Control Crime in
Chicago: Woman With Extensive Criminal History Plows Car Through Gas
Station, Hits a Vehicle, and Flips SUV Over [VIDEO]
Crime doesn’t rest in the Democrat-run city of Chicago.
100 Percent Fed Up reports – day after Chicago’s violent “teen takeover,”
an enraged woman plowed through a gas station in the city and into
traffic, hitting multiple cars and ultimately flipping her vehicle.
Kendra Nance, a 31-year-old Chicago resident, got into a fight with her boyfriend at a gas station in Forest Park on Sunday.
Gas station customers ended up getting involved in the very public
fight, some picking up their phones to record the ordeal. One customer
reportedly threw something at the Ford Explorer Nance was in, angering
her further.
Although her boyfriend tried to grab the keys out of the ignition to
keep her from driving away, Nance still managed to begin erratically
driving the car away, dragging her boyfriend, who was only halfway
inside the vehicle, along the road.
The out-of-control woman smashed into a red SUV that was parked at
the gas station. Shortly after pulling out onto the street, Nance
crashed straight into another vehicle that was waiting at a stoplight.
The car Nance was driving flipped upside down and landed in the
middle of the road. She then jumped out of the car and continued
screaming at the people at the gas station who were continuing to record
her.
Missing one of her shoes, Nance grabbed her purse out of the overturned vehicle and began to walk away.
Nance and her boyfriend were both arrested after the incident and
were treated for injuries at Loyola University Medical Center in
Maywood.
Miraculously, there were no other injuries from the crash.
This some shit right here!!!
Nance was charged with felony criminal damage to property, two counts
of aggravated assault, reckless driving, reckless conduct, leaving the
scene of a motor vehicle accident, and having no valid driver’s license.
After appearing in court for a bond hearing on Tuesday, Nance’s bond
was set at $200,000. She will appear in court on Wednesday for violating
probation on a prior case and will appear on May 12 for this case.
Nance has three previous felonies, including aggravated battery to a
police officer in 2021 and theft and robbery in 2020. She also has three
misdemeanor charges, including several charges of battery from 2017,
2018, and 2021.
A
6-year-old girl and her parents were injured by gunfire on Tuesday
night after a basketball rolled down a residential street in North
Carolina and into a man’s yard, enraging him, neighbors told WSOC-TV.
Witnesses told the station that the gunman ran up and down the street, firing until he ran out of bullets.
The
Gaston County Police Department said Wednesday they were still hunting
for the alleged gunman, identified as Robert Louis Singletary, a
24-year-old man described as “armed and dangerous.”
The young girl, Kinsley White, was hospitalized after being seriously wounded. She was released overnight, family members told Queen City News. Her father, William White, remains in the hospital.
“He came out with a gun, he started shooting,” Kinsley explained to the outlet. “Hope my daddy is OK.”
Her
mother, Ashley Hilderbrand, was grazed by a bullet and treated at the
scene. She told WSOC that she heard the gunman make a threat to her
husband and daughter: “I’m going to kill you.”
He then chased them, firing, while William White tried to shield Kinsley, Hilderbrand said.
A fourth person was shot at but not injured, police said.
Singletary
faces multiple charges, including four counts of first-degree attempted
murder, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill,
and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon.
In December, he was arrested for assaulting his girlfriend with what police described
as a “mini sledgehammer.” He allegedly prevented her from leaving his
apartment until she cleaned up the evidence of the assault. The woman
was able to escape roughly two hours later.
WSOC-TV in North Carolina reported that a 6-year-old child and her parents were shot Tuesday night.
24-year-old Robert Singletary, the man allegedly responsible for the
shooting, was furious a basketball happened to roll into his yard while
young children were playing.
Police say Singletary ran down the street and fired his gun at a neighbor. Singletary then allegedly returned and shot William White and his 6-year-old daughter Kinsley while they were running away.
Kinsley and her dad were seriously injured from the gunfire.
The little girl was left with bullet fragments in her cheek while
William remains in the hospital.
William heroically stood in the line of fire trying to protect his daughter and the rest of the children according WSOC-TV.
Kinsley’s mother, Ashley Hilderbrand, was grazed by a bullet but has since returned home.
Kinsley, who has stitches from bullet fragments
in her cheek, is in a position no child should be in. She’s worried
about her father, who suffered the most serious injuries while he was
trying to protect her. She spoke to Channel 9′s Ken Lemon while holding
her grandfather’s hand, with sadness in her eyes and the daunting
question on her mind.
“Why did you shoot my daddy and me? Why did you shoot a kid’s dad?” Kinsley asked.
Neighbors said Singletary was new to the area and often got angry with children in the neighborhood.
Kinsley’s mother told Lemon she was outside too, and said she heard Singletary make a threat.
“He looked at my husband and my daughter and told them, ‘I’m going to kill you,’” Ashley Hilderbrand said.
Hilderbrand said Singletary chased them while shooting, and Kinsley’s
father tried to draw gunfire toward him and away from the children. He
was shot in the back in his front yard.
s
Hilderbrand said Singletary kept shooting, missing repeatedly until he was out of bullets.
On Wednesday, Lemon was in the neighborhood as police performed a
tactical search of Singletary’s home. They also went door to door in the
community asking if neighbors had seen him.
Police said Singletary, 24, is still on the lam.
Authorities do not know if Singletary is on foot or in a vehicle.
He’s described as 6 feet, 2 inches tall with brown eyes and black hair.
He weighs about 223 pounds.
Gaston County police said in Tuesday’s incident, Singletary is
charged with four counts of attempted first-degree murder, two counts of
assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious
injury, and possession of a firearm by a felon. More charges are likely
because of the shots fired into neighbors’ homes.
Police said they have help from U.S. Marshals in the search for Singletary.
Neighbors told WSOC that Singletary was new to the area and often got angry with children in the neighborhood.
Citing
the ongoing investigation, a spokesperson for the Gaston County Police
Department declined to confirm details of the case.
“I want to say
to the people of Gaston County—this sort of violence will not stand,”
Stephen Zill, the department’s chief, said in a statement posted to
social media on Wednesday afternoon.
Police have partnered with the U.S. Marshals Regional Fugitive Task Force to find Singletary, Zill said.
“We
don’t even know the man,” Kinsley told WSOC, appearing on camera with
stitches in her cheek. “Why did you shoot my daddy and me? Why did you
shoot a kid’s dad?”
The
incident occurred a day after a recent spate of high-profile shootings
involving young victims. On Monday, a 25-year-old man in Texas was
arrested for shooting at a group of four high school cheerleaders after one of them mistakenly tried to get into his car, thinking it was hers.
Over the weekend, Kaylin Gillis,
a 20-year-old woman, was killed in upstate New York after the car she
was in pulled up the wrong driveway while searching for a friend’s
house. A 65-year-old man was charged with one count of second-degree
murder.
And last Thursday, a teenage honors student named Ralph Yarl
was shot twice by an 84-year-old man after accidentally ringing the
doorbell of the wrong house while trying to pick his younger brothers up
in a Missouri neighborhood. Yarl was discharged from the hospital this week.
UPDATE: Suspected Phone Charger Shoplifters Who Killed 26-Yr-Old Home Depot Employee, Are Arrested…Had Baby In Getaway Vehicle
100 Percent Fed Upreports
– On Tuesday, a 26-year-old Home Depot worker named Blake Mohs was shot
dead while attempting to stop a shoplifter in the lawless state of
California, just east of San Francisco.
The suspects, 32-year-old Benicia Knapps and 31-year-old David
Guillory, attempted to steal a phone charger from a Home Depot in
Pleasanton, California. Knapps is a licensed security guard with a
criminal history.
The couple appears to be dating, according to their Facebook profiles.
After noticing the attempted theft, Mohs confronted Knapps, who was
“determined to exit without paying,” according to Pleasanton police Lt.
Erik Silacci.
Knapps pulled out a handgun and fired at the Home Depot employee.
The suspect then fled with her two-year-old child, who was waiting in the car during the theft attempt.
Mohs was found bleeding inside the Home Depot and was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he died from his injuries.
The brave Home Depot employee was a Boy Scout leader and was engaged
to fiancée Kasey Silligman. They were set to be married on August 12 at
the campsite where the couple met while volunteering with the Scouts.

The Pleasanton Police Department released a statement detailing their response to the shooting:
Pleasanton Police Department is actively investigating a shooting
that occurred at approximately 2:15 p.m. on Tuesday, April 18, inside a
Home Depot store located at 6000 Johnson Drive.
Our dispatch center received calls about a man who was bleeding
inside the store. Officers rendered aid to the victim, and he was
immediately transported to a nearby hospital. Witnesses reported the
victim attempted to stop a theft in progress, wherein a struggle ensued,
and the man was shot. The suspects were seen immediately driving away
from the scene after the shooting.
Allied agencies were notified of the description of the wanted
vehicle. At approximately 2:30 p.m., deputies with the Alameda County
Sheriff’s Office located the vehicle and successfully detained the
suspects near the 7000 block of Ney Avenue in Oakland.
If you or anyone you know has information about this incident, please call Pleasanton Police Department at (925) 931-5100.
Law enforcement has since arrested both Knapps and Guillory on suspicion of murder, robbery, child endangerment, and conspiracy.
Guillory has been booked at Santa Rita jail and will be joined by Knapps after she receives treatment at a hospital.

Home Depot issued a statement about the tragic loss of life at its
Pleasanton location, saying, “We’re heartbroken over this senseless
tragedy. Blake was our associate and friend, and our hearts go out to
his family and everyone who knew and loved him.”
Blake Mohs and Kasey Silligman
The mayor of Pleasanton also issued a statement, saying, “I am
devastated by the loss of Blake Mohs in yesterday’s senseless shooting.”
Authorities
said Knapps left the store without paying for some items and was
confronted by Mohs and another employee. A struggle ensued between Mohs
and Knapps, who managed to wrestle the stolen items away.
Knapps
allegedly got a gun from her purse.
Mohs and the other Home Depot
employee ran back into the store and another struggle between him and
Knapps occurred.
She shot him, hitting his chest, authorities said. Knapps retrieved a stolen item and fled in a waiting vehicle, police said. Her 2-year-old daughter was inside the car.
Knapps is a licensed security guard and has a criminal history involving
theft, records show, the news outlet said. Guillory has a pending
criminal case in Berkeley, where he is charged with stealing $1,300 in
uniforms and jerseys from a soccer store.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky Finally Admits Vaccinated Individuals Can Spread COVID Virus
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky admitted to Congress on Wednesday that
vaccinated individuals can spread the COVID virus. This is after
spreading vaccine disinformation for over two years now.
This is contrary to her earlier statements on the COVID vaccine. She attributed this change to “an evolution of science.”
In December 2021, Walensky warned that vaccine misinformation was one of the biggest public health threats. She didn’t mention at the time that she was a leading spreader of the propaganda.
Walensky also previously admitted she learned of the effectiveness of the vaccines by watching far-left TV.
Muckraker.com founder Anthony Rubin discusses the Chinese migrants crossing the Darien Gap.
A
reporter released new video that appears to show hundreds of
military-aged Chinese men in Panama heading toward the U.S. border.
Muckraker.com founder Anthony Rubin said on "Fox & Friends First" Wednesday that every day, multiple times a day, groups of men are lining up and getting on buses to continue their journeys.
Rubin described why these individuals are taking this route to get into the United States.
"This
would be for people who can't fly into the U.S. directly. So what they
do is they get on a flight, and they fly into some South American
country. Then from there, they would go to Colombia, they would go
across the jungle, pop out in Panama, and then they would head up to the
United States. But this is going to be for people that can't fly into
the U.S. directly. … You'd rather just fly into the U.S. and overstay your visa. This is for people that don't have that access for whatever reason."
March 29, 2023: Border Patrol agents encounter over 1,000 migrants in El Paso, Texas(Customs and Border Protection)
Rubin said it's fair to be concerned about the groups showing up at the Darien Gap at the Panama-Colombia border.
He said many of the people he filmed "do not want their faces on camera."
"Either
they are foreign actors that are coming over here for nefarious
reasons. … or number two, these are people that are afraid of some sort
of retribution by the Communist Chinese Party.
"If it's number
two, well then what does that mean? That means that these people are
going to be beholden to the Communist Chinese Party once they're here.
Oh, you're in the United States. Okay, well, we're going to threaten
your friends and family back home in China unless you do X, Y, and Z.
"Either
way, it's very dangerous. You can't allow this to just continue and
have all these people cross the border. I mean, it just will not work."
Chinese nationals
are crossing the U.S.-Mexico border into the U.S. in unprecedented
numbers this year, with the first few months of FY 2023 already
eclipsing the total for 2022.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP) reports that just under 2,000 Chinese nationals crossed the
border in FY 2022, but the first few months of FY 2023 have already seen
4,300 encounters, according to federal data.
The Biden
administration saw 1.7 million migrant encounters in 2021, followed by
2.3 million encounters in 2022. More are expected in 2023. According to
Wall Street Journal, 2,200 migrants from China came through the Darien
Gap from January to March of this year, compared to 71 in the same time
frame last year.
"There are people from over 100 countries that
are popping up here. And you would ask yourself why they're coming
here," Rubin added.
He said many of the migrants are seeking "a
better life" but his trip to the Darien Gap left him with concerns about
America's national security.

What to know about XBB.1.16, a new Omicron variant on the WHO’s radar
A
new coronavirus variant has caused a surge in COVID-19 cases in India,
and doctors have flagged pink eye as a possible symptom associated with
it.
There’s a new variant of the coronavirus that infectious disease
experts and public health officials are keeping a close eye on.
XBB.1.16, also known as Arcturus, is an Omicron subvariant that appears
to be more transmissible and has fueled a recent surge of COVID-19 cases
in India. While the variant is circulating at low levels in the U.S.,
health officials are closely monitoring it.
The World Health Organization warned about XBB.1.16
last month and labeled it a “variant of monitoring,” a designation that
isn’t as serious as a “variant of interest.” However, that status could
change if the variant shows signs of increased transmissibility or
virulence, or is able to evade antibodies, the WHO noted.
XBB.1.16
has now been detected in at least 29 countries, including the U.S. and
it is expanding its reach fairly quickly. In late February, XBB.1.16
accounted for only 0.21% of all COVID-19 cases worldwide. A month later,
that had increased to 3.96%, according to the WHO’s latest figures.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began reporting cases of XBB.1.16 last Friday. According to the latest CDC data, the variant now accounts for 7% of new COVID-19 cases nationwide.
Here’s what to know about “Arcturus,” or XBB.1.16
What is XBB.1.16? Is it more dangerous?
XBB.1.16 is a sublineage of the Omicron variant that’ssimilar to XBB.1.5,
the strain that has dominated infections in the U.S. since January. But
XBB.1.16, the WHO noted, has a mutation in the virus’s spike protein
that has been associated with increased transmissibility and potentially
a higher degree of infection. However, some experts have said that
while it looks like it could spread more quickly and lead to more cases,
it doesn’t appear to cause more severe disease.
In India, the variant has led to a surge in COVID-19 cases in recent weeks. On Tuesday, India's Health Ministry reported 61,233 COVID-19 cases, which is a notable increase from the 15,208 cases that were reported on March 31. However, hospitalizations have not surged significantly.
“I
doubt it will lead to too many new hospitalizations or deaths,” Dr.
Monica Gandhi, an infectious disease specialist and a professor of
medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, told Yahoo
News. “I was just in India. ... There was an increase in cases but not
an increase in hospitalizations,” she added.
Gandhi explained that
the coronavirus won’t be fully eradicated, so it will continue to
evolve and new forms of it will continue to emerge. However, she said
new variants won't necessarily become more dangerous. She addedthat
most of the population has immunity from either the vaccines,
infection, or both, and that will continue to protect most individuals
against the worst outcomes of the disease.
“I think this is where
we are. We're gonna have to live with this [virus] and we're going to
see cases go up and down if we get a new subvariant that's more
transmissible, but hopefully, it will not lead to an increase in severe
disease,” Gandhi said.
Does the new variant cause different symptoms?

According to anecdotal reports coming from India and other parts of the world, including the U.S.,
XBB.1.16 may cause a new COVID-19 symptom not seen with previous
coronavirus strains. Some doctors have said the new variant seems to be
causing conjunctivitis, often called pink eye, in children and adolescents.
In a recent tweet,
Vipin M. Vashishtha, an Indian pediatrician who is also a member of the
WHO's Vaccine Safety Net program, said he had started to get pediatric
COVID-19 cases again, and more children who are sick with XBB.1.16 are
experiencing “itchy conjunctivitis with sticky eyes.”
The Mayo Clinic also reported on Thursday that experts are seeing the same eye symptoms in young patients who are sick with COVID-19.
Dr.
Michael Chang, a pediatric infectious diseases expert at UTHealth
Houston and Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital, told Yahoo News that
many things can cause pink eye. He said that at the moment there’s not
enough evidence to say that the new COVID variant is causing
conjunctivitis in children.
“We don't have the context of whether
they're seeing that in some of the regions in India. We know their COVID
cases are going up, and presumably, these kids are testing positive for
COVID, but we don't know if they're testing positive for anything else
either,” Chang said.
He explained that other viruses can cause
conjunctivitis. Adenovirus, which can cause a mild cold or flu-like
illness and can be easily confused with COVID-19, is one of them. Cases
of adenovirus tend to increase in the spring and summer, and Chang said
doctors in the U.S. are seeing more of it these days.
“We are
seeing adenovirus circulating, so even if COVID cases go up, unless
you're doing testing for both COVID and adenovirus, which most people
aren't … it may be difficult [to determine] what's causing your pink
eye.”
Are our COVID-19 vaccines effective against XBB.1.16?
Some doctors say XBB.1.16 may be causing a new symptom among children: conjunctivitis. (Getty Images)
When
a new variant of the coronavirus emerges, one concern that arises is
whether our current vaccines will protect us against that strain.
It
is too early to know how well the COVID-19 vaccines neutralize
XBB.1.16. However, some experts believe the shots should remain
effective at preventing severe illness and death, even if XBB.1.16 is
found to be able to evade antibodies from vaccines. Gandhi explained
that this is because, aside from antibodies, there are other parts of
the immune system that are activated with vaccination and infection,
such as B cells and T cells, which can also offer long-lasting
protection against the virus.
Although there’s no reason to be
concerned right now, Gandhi said that whenever there’s a new, more
transmissible variant, people who are older and those who are
immunocompromised are at the highest risk for complications. She urged
those groups to stay up to date with vaccination, particularly getting
the bivalent booster if they haven’t received it yet.
“If you're
in an older or vulnerable group, if you are someone who is over 65 or on
immunosuppressants or have multiple comorbidities, just go out and get a
booster,” she said.
On Tuesday, the FDA authorized a second dose of the bivalent COVID-19 vaccine
for seniors and immunocompromised people. The CDC’s Advisory Committee
on Immunization Practices — a group of outside experts who advise the
agency on vaccines — is scheduled to meet on Wednesday to discuss the
strategy. If these experts recommend the shots, CDC Director Dr.
Rochelle Walensky is likely to sign off on their use and they could
become available as early as this week.
STATE LEGISLATURES MUST PROTECT PRIVATE PROPERTY FROM CARBON SEIZURE
Guest post by J. Christopher Alexander
In 2020 Louisiana Republican State Senator Sharon Hewitt
authored the passage of legislation in Louisiana that declares that the
practice of “carbon capture and sequestration” (CCS) is a “public good”
as a matter of public policy. As such, private energy companies
may now seize the private property of Louisiana citizens to transport
carbon dioxide that has been “captured” from the atmosphere, eventually
to be stored underground on private land. The general practice is known
as eminent domain and is
based in the last clause of the 5th Amendment of the US Constitution.
The original purpose of eminent domain was to provide a way for the government to expropriate private property, for fair market value, upon a specific showing
that such property is needed to serve a substantial public use or
benefit, such as the construction of a vital water system or a bridge
that facilitates transportation for the general public. The burden of
proof was on the government to show that the proposed expropriation
served a vital public interest and that the property owner was fairly
compensated.
Under Hewitt’s law, however, the use of eminent domain in Louisiana
has been dangerously expanded to not just include, but to favor, private
companies. This means that basic rights private property owners
previously had in opposing the expropriation of their land have been
further eroded. No longer will a specific showing of public necessity be
required, and no longer will the government be required to initiate the
process. The fundamental right of private property is now subordinated,
by law, to broad-scale carbon capture and sequestration by private entities.
To be clear, Louisiana law now contains a presumption in favor of the
corporate seizure of private property and a presumption against private
property rights. This is dangerous and scary.
In response, Louisiana Representative Robby Carter has offered House Bill 10,
which would repeal the eminent domain provision in the current law. If
it passes, private companies would be prohibited from using eminent
domain to acquire property rights for carbon capture processes without
the property owner’s consent. This legislation is critical, as it would
reassert the importance of private property rights and that those rights
may not be subjugated to for-profit entities without the approval of
property owners.
Regardless of how one may feel about the whole carbon capture
enterprise, or about the actual reality of man-caused climate change, we
should all be able to agree that private property is a value that is
worth standing up for in the face of corporate interests whose desire
for profits is thinly concealed behind the façade of protecting the
environment. We are all for profits, and for free enterprise, but not at
the cost of violating a basic American right.
If you live in Louisiana, please contact the following members of the House Natural Resources Committee and urge your strong support for House Bill 10, and follow the legislation all the way through the legislative process, making your voice heard all the way:
