The suicide of a young British teen is renewing awareness of cyberbullying, with parents and anti-bullying advocates calling for an end to anonymous online harassment.
Fourteen-year-old Hannah Smith, of Lutterworth, Leicestershire, England, was found hanged in her bedroom on Friday, according to local site the Leicester Mercury. Her body was reportedly discovered by her older sister.
A police spokesperson told the site that an investigation was ongoing, but that the “death is not being treated as suspicious and a file is being prepared for the coroner.”
In the weeks leading up to her death, Smith reportedly had been subjected to cruel taunts and insults on Ask.fm, a question-and-answer social networking site that allows anonymous participation and boasts 60 million users, around 30 million of them minors, according to The Guardian.

An armed robber stole millions of dollars worth of jewels at a hotel in Cannes, officials said.
According to the BBC, the theft took place on Sunday at the jewelry exhibition Carlton Hotel. The stolen gems are worth around $53 million, the AFP reported.
Sky News also confirmed the incident.
According to The Independent, the heist took place in broad daylight. Local news media said the thief escaped with the stolen jewels in a briefcase.
This is the third major jewel heist this year to take place at Cannes, the site of one of the world’s most prestigious film festivals. During festival in May, $1.4 million worth of gems were stolen from a Swiss jeweler. Later in the week, a diamond necklace worth $2.6 million was taken.

A Pennsylvania man has filed a class-action lawsuit against Walmart alleging the retailer overtaxed him by 21 cents for items purchased with a coupon, Consumerist reports.
According to a lawsuit filed in Allegheny County, Pa., Brian Farneth purchased two cans of $2.97 shaving cream at a Walmart with a “buy one, get one free” coupon in June. The cashier, Farneth says, correctly deducted the price of one can of shaving cream from the total, but failed to deduct the associated tax, causing him to lose out on 21 cents.
Farneth alleges that he could be one of many customers at Walmart’s 8,500 stores across the world that the retailer may be overcharging for coupon purchases.
“Walmart’s current systems, with respect to the collection and remittance of sales tax, are in compliance with Pennsylvania’s tax laws,” Walmart Spokesperson Dan Fogleman wrote in an email to The Huffington Post. “We have previously sought an opinion from the state which confirmed this.”

Orange peel syndrome. Cottage cheese thighs. Hail damage. There are a lot of pet names for cellulite, each of them unappetizing enough to make us not want to talk about the phenomenon at all. That Photoshop magically smoothes the skin of every woman professionally photographed, well, that means as a society, we don’t have to look at it either. But, amidst all this if-you-ignore-it, it-will-cease-to-exist mindset, lie many myths about who gets cellulite and why – and an estimated $62 million industry that makes devices to banish it.
Do any of these devices work? Is cellulite the deserved curse of those who gain a bit of weight?

The gunman who went on a shooting rampage at a South Florida apartment complex was described as a quiet man who took his mother to doctor appointments, yet also someone who was known for getting into fights and yelling at his mom.
The conflicting portrayals of Pedro Vargas, 42, emerged as police tried to piece together why he set ablaze the apartment he lived in with his mother and then killed six people before police fatally shot him.
As the eight-hour standoff unfolded, horrified residents hunkered down in their homes, at times so close to the action that they could feel the gunfire or hear negotiations between the gunman and police, authorities and witnesses said Saturday.
As the rampaged winded down, Vargas held two people hostage at gunpoint for up to three hours in their apartment until a SWAT team entered and killed him, police said. The hostages were not hurt.

Police uncovered what they call a “prison room” in Texas where at least four victims were being held against their will.
Officers responded to the Houston home at 8:30 a.m. after a tip that four men, ages 79, 54, 74 and about 65 were being held captive in the garage, KTRK reports. When they arrived, the front door was nailed shut. Inside they found a trash-ridden room with no beds. The four victims were inside.
One of the victims says he’s been there for about 10 years, according to CNN. Three of the men couldn’t walk and were transported to a nearby hospital.
Three women and a suspect live in the house, and one person was taken into custody. It wasn’t immediately clear whether that person would face charges.
Details about the victims and their captivity were still hazy at press time. Police told some news sources that the men may have been homeless, and were lured to the house with beer and cigarettes in exchange for their Social Securty and Veteran’s Administration checks, FOX 4 reports.

A 2-year-old Wisconsin boy who was found dead in the trunk of a car had the key to the vehicle with him, the family’s pastor said Saturday.
Isaiah Theis had that key and several other sets of keys with him when a deputy found his body Wednesday night, the Rev. Rick Van Gundy told The Associated Press. Van Gundy said he got the information from the Theis family but declined to be more specific, because of the sensitivity of the situation.
“This is breaking the heart of somebody who has a broken heart,” said Van Gundy, pastor of St. Peter’s Community Church in Dresser. “It’s that much of a devastation to them that you can’t even put a word to it.”
The deputy found the boy in the trunk of a customer’s car on his parents’ property near Centuria, where the boy’s father runs an auto repair business. Preliminary autopsy results released Friday said Isaiah likely died of hyperthermia – a condition in which the body temperature spikes – due to Wednesday’s blistering heat.

Authorities responding to a report of a foul odor from a home ultimately discovered three bodies and arrested a registered sex offender who sent police and volunteers through a poor Ohio neighborhood in a search for more victims Sunday, officials said.
East Cleveland Police Chief Ralph Spotts had cautioned searchers to be prepared to find one or two more victims. But after a daylong search that included 40 abandoned houses and other areas, no more bodies were found.
Spotts identified the suspect as 35-year-old Michael Madison. He said Madison is expected to be formally charged Monday, but did not elaborate.
Mayor Gary Norton said the suspect has indicated he might have been influenced by Cleveland serial killer Anthony Sowell, who was convicted in 2011 of murdering 11 women and sentenced to death.
It’s the latest in a series of high-profile cases involving the disappearance of women from the Cleveland area.

In a surprise twist to an already brazen killing, a woman who fatally shot a man in public at a gas station also apparently videotaped the victim as he lay dying on the ground.
The altercation between the victim, Daniel Lewis, and an unnamed woman occurred around 7 p.m. Sunday evening at a gas station on Houston’s southeast side, according to local ABC affiliate KTRK.
In an argument captured on surveillance camera, Lewis and the woman appear to argue for a few minutes before she pulls what police believe to be a .22-caliber rifle out of her car and shoots Lewis several times at close range.
After shooting Lewis, the woman in the video then pulls out a camera phone and records the scene, according to Houston station KHOU. The woman eventually left the scene, but a witness recorded her license plate and police were able to track her down. She is currently being held for questioning, although no charges have yet been filed, according to KHOU.
“My brother is harmless, he’s harmless and he wouldn’t have hurt her. He wouldn’t have hurt nobody,” a man identifying himself as Lewis’ brother told KHOU. “She just didn’t know him, you know. Because if she’d have known my brother, she’d have known that Poochie wouldn’t have hurt nobody.”
