Police said Ayanna Milson was last seen by her mother at her home located at 530 NW 17th street around 6pm on Sunday. Her friends say they spotted her 2 hours later, when she said she was waiting on someone. If you have any information on this case or the location of Ayanna please contact the Miami Police at 305.579.6630. Now you know we reported yesterday about the little 4 year old boy who died on Saturday after being left in his mothers car for 2 hours while she got her nails done for her wedding which was to take place later that day…well the PBC Medical Examiner has reported that the boys temperature had reached 108 degrees while he waited in the car…Now in the mothers defense she is saying that she didn’t know the child was in the car, & no charges have been filed against her…but seeing as this is becoming a more & more common offense, call us up & let us know how you feel & if you think these parents should be penalized for negligence 3 young girls ages 10, 10, & 12 have been charged with felony burglary and criminal mischief after vandalizing their Elementary School over the weekend. The young ladies armed with spray paint & some mischievous & destructive intentions turned over trash cans, spray painted walls, and ransacked a portable at Lake Forest Elementary in Pem broke Park. Now, the BSO used the school surveillance cameras to identify the persons involved & realized that they had actually come out a day before the vandalism took place in order to case the place…can you believe that…the video tapes revealed that a 4th girl had been with them the 1st day but not the 2nd & she was charged with misdemeanor trespassing… The 3 main culprits are now in a juvenile detention facility… You know what they say an idle mind is the Devils play ground. I’m thinking its time for school to start. Shout outs to Barack Obama who is winning the money race…and we all know how important that is when it comes to running and winning an election! That’s right its being reported that Barack outraised John McCain by a half-million dollars right here in Florida in June. Obama reported ly raised $1.4million dollars while McCain collected about $900,000. Some folks are attributing Barack’s campaign success to his ability to rally the everyday working people to donate…Baracks campaign counts more than 85,000 donors in Florida alone… Partners are calling Foul on D-Wade who apparently didn’t come ready to play when it came to his off-the-court business ventures, which included the opening of 2 restaurants and 3rd location which was under construction… The Heat superstar is being sued by his partners for breach of contract stating that Wade didn’t promote the restaurants as promised in a contract…& are blaming the subsequent closing of the 2 open D.Wade Sports Grill locations in Boca & Ft.Lauderdale and the delays on the 3rd Miami location on his lack of support and involvement.

Police had been trying to negotiate with the victim, Dallas Carter, when he fired at least 30 rounds at the officers, who were then forced to return fire… Police say Mr.Carter was suffering from health & financial issue. The shooting is currently being investigated and the officers involved are on administrative leave. Very sad news for a West Palm Beach family who found themselves mourning the loss of a child on Saturday when they were supposed to be celebrating a wedding. That’s right, the mother and bride to be accidentally left her son in the car while she went to have her nails done for her wedding. The child was in the car for more than 2 hours while temperatures climbed past 90 degrees and no further information has been released as of this time. The owner of a sports bar in Hollywood had to call a timeout over the weekend when reports of a foul smell & blood dripping from a vent in the kitchen led to police uncovering a dead body. Now this comes directly off a report of a possible break-in on Thursday. Police believe the body of the stuck suspect is that of the would-be burglar, however, its still too early20to tell if the two situations are truly related or just coincident. The outlook is looking more promising today for a real life hero who sacrificed his safety in order to protect his son from a drunk driver. The man was critically injured when a drunk driver lost control of her vehicle, went up on a sidewalk and struck the 2 pedestrians. The driver was arrested and is being held at a women’s detention center, while the child is expected to be OK & the fathers condition has been upgraded from critical to serious.
