FREEPORT, Texas (KTRK) — Thousands of dead fish could be seen washing ashore in Freeport in a video sent to ABC13 on Friday, and officials are now warning the public to avoid the area.This happened on Bryan Beach, near the mouth of the Brazos River.A spokesperson with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department said the fish kill was due to a “low dissolved oxygen event.” They estimate tens of thousands of fish have been impacted.On Saturday, more fish were seen washing up, causing officials to recommend to beachgoers to avoid the area and to not enter the water until the area is cleared.Officials said the species most impacted was Gulf menhaden, adding that these events are common in the summer when temperatures increase.If there isn’t enough oxygen in the water, fish can’t “breathe,” the department explained.Before a kill event occurs, the fish will usually try to get oxygen by gulping at the water’s surface early in the morning.Accordin...

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:16:51 GMT

(CNN) — A judge denied the pretrial release of Kouri Richins – a Utah widow accused of killing her husband before she authored a children’s book about grief – saying she must remain in custody pending the outcome of her trial due to the “substantial evidence” against her.The judge’s decision to deny bail came as new details about the widow’s alleged search history emerged as part of the case against the 33 year old, who appeared in a Park City, Utah, court on Monday.“What is a lethal dose of fentanyl” was one of many phone searches that investigators say were made by Kouri Richins. Prosecutors allege she killed Eric Richins, her husband of nine years, with a lethal dose of fentanyl. She faces charges of criminal homicide, aggravated murder and three counts of possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute.

Crash on south I-75 causes heavy delays in Miami Gardens

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:16:51 GMT

A major traffic jam on the southbound lanes of Interstate 75 was caused by a significant crash that led to lane closures. On Tuesday morning, traffic near Northwest 138th Street appeared to be getting along on the left shoulder of the highway after police closed off the road due to the crash. Live video footage of the scene showed one of the vehicles involved in the collision flipped over on its roof. Another SUV appeared to sustain severe damage to its front. Around 7 a.m., 7SkyForce captured a Miami-Dade Air Rescue helicopter landing near the highway in order to transport someone involved in the incident. It is unclear what their condition is. Delays were reported to be as far back as Miami Gardens Drive on the interstate. Drivers are urged to avoid the area as traffic is predicted to only get worse.

Rockies beat sloppy Red Sox 4-3 in 10 after rain delay

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:16:51 GMT

BOSTON (AP) — Nick Pivetta walked Randal Grichuk to force in the go-ahead run in the 10th inning, first baseman Triston Casas booted a potential inning-ending grounder and the Colorado Rockies beat the Boston Red Sox 4-3 on Monday night in a matchup of last-place teams.The game was rain delayed for 1 hour, 29 minutes after Colorado scored twice in the top of the 10th, giving the Rockies a similar victory to a day earlier.Owning the NL’s worst record coming into the day, the Rockies have won two straight after a six-game losing streak. On Sunday, Nolan Jones hit a walk-off homer after a 1 hour, 25 minute rain delay.Jones made this one last longer, too, when the right fielder made a splendid running backhanded grab, lunging slightly just in front of Boston’s bullpen to take a two-run homer away from Rafael Devers in the eighth.“I saw it well off the bat. I think I got a good jump on it. I started getting back and I didn’t know how close I was getting to the wall,” Jones said. “O...

Orioles minor league report: Samuel Basallo, among Baseball America’s youngest top 100 prospects, is making waves

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:16:51 GMT

In April, Samuel Basallo opened eyes by hitting an opposite-field home run. It wasn’t because the Orioles’ catching prospect mashed a meatball a long way — although, he’s had a few of those in his young career, too — but instead because he hit a pitch out of the strike zone over the fence.After Basallo hit the high and away pitch for a home run, Delmarva hitting coach Josh Bunselmeyer said another Orioles prospect took notice.“Wow, that’s impressive,” Bunselmeyer recalls Jackson Holliday saying after Basallo’s long ball.Holliday, the No. 1 prospect in the entire minor leagues, isn’t the only one impressed by Basallo this spring. In its most recent prospect ranking update, Baseball America moved Basallo into its top 100 at No. 79 after a solid start to the 2023 campaign, his first in full-season ball. At 18 years old, Basallo is one of the youngest players on the top 100 list.“He’s done some impressive things out...

3 takeaways from the Chicago Cubs’ 4-6 West Coast trip, including Seiya Suzuki’s vague injury and Christopher Morel’s power

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:16:51 GMT

Usually a position player ending the game on the mound is a bad sign for a team.Instead, San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford throwing a scoreless ninth inning Sunday against the Chicago Cubs represented a sour way to cap a 4-6 mark on their three-city 10-game West Coast trip.The Cubs salvaged the trip with the series win in San Francisco, though they wasted a chance to sweep the Giants in a 13-3 blowout loss Sunday at Oracle Park.“When we play good defense and get good pitching we’re in games,” manager David Ross said afterward. “Just not a lot of margin for error. Pretty ugly performance pitching today. Left a lot of guys on base today. But love the way the guys responded after getting swept in Anaheim.“When our starting pitchers are carrying the load we’re doing alright.”Here are three takeaways from the road trip.1. Uncertainty around Seiya Suzuki’s ailment.For fans looking for specifics about Seiya Suzuki’s absenc...

Column: Chicago White Sox’s ugly season could get uglier if Liam Hendriks is out for long

Published Tue, 18 Feb 2025 09:16:51 GMT

“Winning Ugly” became the mantra of the 1983 White Sox, a team that stormed back from being 8 games under .500 on May 26 to win the American League West by 20 games.Despite a postseason reckoning, that ’83 season was so special to Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf that the Sox wear the sartorially-challenged uniforms from that era during Sunday home games on the South Side.Forty years later, the 29-38 Sox perfected the art of losing ugly while wearing those throwbacks.The bullpen blew their second straight ninth-inning lead Sunday in another stomach-churning loss to the Miami Marlins, leaving manager Pedro Grifol to declare “those guys are human.”Without Liam Hendriks to close either game, Joe Kelly and Kendall Graveman took turns gagging on cue, turning a would-be sweep of the Marlins into a series loss and killing any momentum from an uplifting 5-1 stretch against the Detroit Tigers and New York Yankees.With a day off for recovery, the Sox begin a six-game Wes...
