Liam Neeson Confesses Love for Pamela Anderson After Filming

Liam Neeson revealed he is “madly in love” with Pamela Anderson after filming the new “Naked Gun” reboot together. Neeson, 72, plays the son of Leslie Nielsen’s iconic Frank Drebin, while Anderson, 57, stars as the female lead.

“She’s just terrific to work with. I can’t compliment her enough,” Neeson told People. “She’s funny and so easy to work with.”

A Strong Bond, Not a Romance

Since meeting on set, Anderson has posted playful photos with Neeson on Instagram. She praised him as “the perfect gentleman” who “brought out the best” in her.

Despite the chemistry, the pair dismissed romance rumors. Neeson said he is “done with dating,” and Anderson described Neeson as “a friend forever.” “We definitely have a connection that is very sincere, very loving,” she added.

Neeson’s Past Love and Personal Loss

Neeson was married to actress Natasha Richardson, who tragically died in 2009 after a skiing accident led to a fatal brain injury. The couple married in 1994 and had two children.

Naked Gun Returns with New Cast

Neeson’s latest comedic role comes after appearances in shows like Atlanta and Derry Girls. The reboot is directed by Akiva Schaffer of The Lonely Island.

The original Naked Gun trilogy, a parody of police procedurals, earned over $216 million at the box office. The new film is scheduled for release on August 1.

Russia and Ukraine Intensify Drone Strikes Before Potential Ceasefire Talks

Russia and Ukraine exchanged waves of drone strikes overnight as both sides prepare for possible ceasefire negotiations later this week. The strikes are setting new records in scale and frequency, with both nations ramping up their drone capabilities.

Russia’s Defense Ministry said it downed 107 Ukrainian drones across seven regions, including 28 near Moscow. This followed Ukraine’s earlier strikes, which led to Russia intercepting 221 drones in one day — its highest daily count since June 6.

Airports Disrupted and Kyiv Hit Hard

Ukraine reported Russia launched 426 drones and 24 missiles overnight. The air force intercepted most, but debris impacted several areas. In Kyiv, explosions killed at least one person and injured nine, damaging residential buildings, a supermarket, a kindergarten, and even a metro station entrance.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said multiple regions across the country were attacked, leaving at least two dead and 15 injured overall.

Calls for Expanded Drone Arsenal

Zelenskyy ordered the military to increase the range and frequency of Ukrainian drone strikes, targeting Russian weapons production sites. He emphasized that “only real pressure on Russia can stop this aggression.”

Drone War By the Numbers

In July alone, Russia launched nearly 5,000 drones and 148 missiles into Ukraine, averaging 234 drones per day. Ukraine’s drone attacks are also escalating, with Russia claiming to have downed over 2,300 Ukrainian drones this month.

Ceasefire Talks and U.S. Pressure

Zelenskyy renewed calls for ceasefire talks, with plans for another meeting with Russian officials. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov acknowledged President Donald Trump’s 50-day ceasefire ultimatum but noted that achieving peace is a long and complex process.

Peskov hinted at a future meeting between Trump and President Vladimir Putin, stating, “It is possible, and over time it will definitely happen.”

However, he added that the groundwork for significant agreements still needs to be done.

Teenager killed, two 15-year-olds injured in pool party shooting at NE Harris Co. apartments: HCSO

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — Authorities say a teenager is dead and two others were hurt after an overnight shooting at an apartment pool party in northeast Harris County.

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office says the shooting happened Sunday at The Henry at Liberty Hills Apartments off Liberty River Drive, near Highway 90 and the Beltway.

Major A. McConnell with the HCSO said this all started at a pool party just before midnight, where he says between 25 and 30 teenagers were present with no parental supervision.

The sheriff’s office believes everyone involved is a teenager – around 15 to 17 years old, and that there were multiple shooters who fired into the crowd.

A young man, believed to be 15 or 16, was killed. Two other 15-year-olds, a male and female, were injured, according to the sheriff’s office.

The sheriff said the girl was flown to the hospital by Life Flight and is critical, and the boy is in serious condition.

Sheriff Ed Gonzalez says the party at the apartments was promoted on social media.

Investigators have only been able to speak with a few people, so deputies are urging anyone with information to call them or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.

Hottest week of summer, so far, has arrived

Hottest week of summer, so far, has arrived

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — The hottest week of summer (so far) has arrived with high temperatures staying in the upper 90s or even hitting 100 degrees each day this week.

Get ready for a steamy Monday! We started off today with temperatures in the upper 70s/low 80s and under mostly sunny skies, we should see high temperatures soar into the upper 90s. Heat index values could be closer to 104. An isolated shower or two will be possible this afternoon but most of us will stay dry.

Tell me about this week’s heat. Is it really going to be that hot?

Well, this week will likely be the hottest week of summer… so far. Wednesday and Thursday could even be record breaking heat days with high temperatures of 100 degrees. Highs will be in the upper 90s or even topping 100 degrees in the afternoon through Thursday of this week. Heat index values in the afternoon will range between 100 to 110 in the afternoon each day. Wednesday could be the hottest, which could even prompt our first Heat Advisory of summer to be issued, so you’ll want to remember your hot weather safety tips all week long. This heat arrives thanks to the combination of a big heat dome, ridge and surface high pressure over the gulf.

What are those hot weather safety tips again?

Remember to stay hydrated drinking plenty of water, wear sunscreen and use sun protection to cover your skin and avoid strenuous outdoor activities or exercising during the peak heating of the day, which is usually between 2 and 6 p.m. Be sure to take breaks in air conditioning too if you have to be out and about. Signs of heat exhaustion include nausea, sudden thirst, and heavy sweating and/or muscle weakness. This is when you want to act fast to avoid heat stroke. Speaking of, signs of heat stroke include those of heat exhaustion plus confusion and dizziness where you should act fast and call 911.

And what about those late week rain chances?

Rain chances slowly climb into the end of the week. This is as the heat dome moves on and we see the return of onshore flow from the gulf. All the while, higher levels of moisture swirl back into the gulf early this week. While it’s unlikely we see organized tropical development, showers and storms could bring heavy rains across the Gulf Coast beginning Tuesday in the east, lasting through Saturday to the west. For Southeast Texas, we could see these heavier, tropical downpours Friday and Saturday, but it’s only a 30% chance of that right now.

What’s happening in the tropics?

Pretty quiet in the tropics for now. There are two areas, one in the Atlantic and one in the Pacific, with low odds of developing. For a thorough update and in-depth video on what’s happening in the tropics, head to our tropical update page.

Indianapolis Mother Accused of Attempted Child Sex Trafficking

An Indianapolis mother, Morgan Stapp, 32, faces charges of attempting to commit child sex trafficking after allegedly offering a stranger online the opportunity to sexually assault her 7-month-old daughter for $400, according to a probable cause affidavit cited by multiple outlets.

Arrest and Charges

Stapp was arrested on July 8, 2025, and later released on a $100,000 bond, court records show. She is the mother of seven children and is now represented by the Indiana Public Defender’s office after successfully filing for indigent status.

FBI Investigation Triggered by Snapchat

Authorities began investigating Stapp after Snapchat flagged attempted sex trafficking in November 2024. The FBI reported that the “morgan-stapp” Snapchat account sent three photos of her infant to another user, along with messages soliciting sex acts for payment.

Initially, Stapp told the FBI her account had been hacked and that she lost access to it. However, during a later interview with the Indiana Department of Child Services, she admitted to lying to agents, stating, “I wanted the FBI to leave.”

Digital Evidence Links Account to Stapp

Indianapolis Metro police obtained a search warrant and found selfies of Stapp saved to the account days after her FBI interview—contradicting her hacking claim. Records also showed over 7,000 messages sent from her account over three days in November, including 81 messages asking others to “buy my nudes so I can get baby diapers.”

IP address data confirmed that the messages originated near her Indianapolis home.

Upcoming Court Date

Stapp is scheduled to appear in court again on September 15, 2025. USA TODAY has reached out to the Marion County Sheriff’s Office and Indianapolis Metro Police for further comment but has not received a response.

Video shows suspect sneak into Cleveland business lot set $400K trucks on fire

CLEVELAND, Texas (KTRK) — Police are investigating after two trucks were set on fire at a Cleveland septic business.

The trucks were parked in a gated lot at Anytime Septic Solutions on North Washington Avenue.

Surveillance video shows someone entering the trucks just before 11:30 p.m. on July 11, while owner James Sullivan was on vacation in Costa Rica. The trucks then erupt in a ball of flames.

“My heart kind of drops thinking about ‘What am I gonna do? How am I gonna replace this stuff, and how am I gonna keep things managed?” Sullivan said.

Sullivan believes the suspect burrowed under a fence to gain access to the lot and then doused the inside of the trucks with gasoline. Flames also spread to a nearby pickup truck.

It’s unclear if the suspect was injured during the fire.

“As you can see, kind of, in the video as well, he’s fully protected with a sweater or some type of clothing,” Sullivan said.

Cleveland police haven’t said if they’ve identified a suspect or what a possible motive might have been.

“It’s somebody that’s either jealous or somebody that’s highly upset, angry, mad,” Sullivan said.

Sullivan said only one of the pump trucks, which he estimates would cost $400,000 a piece to replace, was insured.

Sullivan said he’s offering a $10,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest.

Drier and hotter conditions arrive, spot shower still possible Sunday

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — While a stray shower or two cant be ruled out Sunday, a hotter and drier pattern begins to settle in across the region Sunday.

It’s a humid start to your Sunday with a few clouds, though we’ll still see plenty of sunshine around throughout the day. That’s going to allow for temperatures to climb into the upper 90s with a heat index value making it feel like 100 to 105 degrees in the afternoon. And while generally today we are dry, we’re not ruling out a stray shower or storm.

Tell me about next week’s heat. Is it really going to be that hot?

Well, this next week will likely be the hottest week we’ve seen so far this summer. And Wednesday’s forecast high temperature of 100 degrees will be one degree away from tying the daily record high temperature too. Beginning today we’ll consistently see a stretch of hotter, sunnier and drier days. High will be in the upper 90s or even topping 100 degrees in the afternoon Sunday through Thursday of next week. Heat index values in the afternoon will range between 100 to 110 in the afternoon each day. Wednesday could be the hottest, which could even prompt our first Heat Advisory of summer to be issued. This heat arrives thanks to the combination of a big heat, dome, ridge and surface high pressure over the gulf.

And what about those late week rain chances?

Rain chances slowly climb at the end of next week. This is as the heat dome moves on, and we see the return of onshore flow from the gulf. All the while, there’s the chance higher levels of moisture swirl over the gulf next week too, which could increase the chance for heavy showers and storms to develop over the gulf.

Widespread Strikes Across Multiple Regions

Casualties and Infrastructure Damage

At least one person was killed and six others, including a child, were injured in Odesa and nearby areas. An apartment building was damaged, and in Sumy, attacks on critical infrastructure left thousands of families without power.

Leaders aim to connect thousands of Harris Co. homes that lack high-speed internet before World Cup

Leaders aim to connect thousands of Harris Co. homes that lack high-speed internet before World Cup

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) — New data shows thousands of Harris County residents still don’t have access to high-speed internet, but county leaders say they’re trying to bridge the digital divide.

Thousands are expected to pack parts of Houston next summer as the city is slated to host seven FIFA World Cup matches.

“We want them to have a contemporary experience, especially with their connectivity,” Harris County Pct. 2 Commissioner Adrian Garcia said.

To do that, Garcia says the digital divide in the county needs to be fixed.

According to the non-profit US Ignite, 171,000 households don’t have reliable internet, which is mainly in the eastern portion of Harris County.

“Precincts 1 and 2 in Harris County account for more than 60% of the unconnected or the under-connected households,” Lee Davenport, Director of Community Development with U.S. Ignite, said.

“In the event of any emergency, we want to make sure our first responders have no problem communicating, sharing any public information, and the community has no problem with that. That aspect of preparation, given my law enforcement background, has been a role I’m serving with the host committee on the World Cup,” Garcia said.

Garcia says the World Cup coming to Houston is one major reason why the county commissioners unanimously voted in favor of assembling a broadband task force.

“This has been a priority since the beginning of the pandemic because that’s when we absolutely recognized just how significant it was. It’s been a priority since then. It’s unfortunate that the funding we were hopeful to get isn’t there.

The task force will use what’s called a broadband roadmap developed by U.S. Ignite to help with strategies to close the digital divide.

“That task force should report back its understanding of a prioritization of areas of infrastructure, partnerships, and digital opportunity,” Davenport said.

Garcia said he doesn’t know how this will be funded, but the roadmap summary says the county will look into both public and private funding.
