There’s a guy in St. Louis named Gregory Beck who’s lost both legs and most of his vision to diabetes.\u00a0 And he was\u00a0making his way home last Tuesday when tornado sirens went off.<\/p>\n
But no one stopped to help him, until a 16-year-old named Seth Phillips hopped out of his mom’s car and pushed him the rest of the way, about a quarter of a mile uphill to get him home.<\/p>\n
______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Police in Ocala, Florida say an 11-foot, 6-inches long alligator was spotted traveling down a street there. Authorities monitored the gator until the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) could arrive and capture the creature. The FWC relocated the gator to a secluded area.<\/p>\n Usually when you grab a shopping cart it\u2019s empty. However, a cart attendant at a Walmart in Texas got a scare after discovering a large rat snake inside a group of carts. The Police posted about the incident on Facebook, saying the woman\u2019s loud scream drew the attention of an officer in the area. Officials called a snake handler to come help relocate the creature. Recent heavy rains are blamed for forcing a lot of snakes out of their natural habitats.<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n ENTERTAINMENT<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Harrison Ford\u00a0said\u00a0he doesn’t want anyone else to play Indiana Jones.\u00a0 And for some reason he mentioned Chris Pine.\u00a0 He said, quote, “This is a hell of a way to tell Chris Pine this.\u00a0 I’m sorry, man.”\u00a0 He may have been thinking of Chris PRATT, who’s actually been mentioned as a possible replacement.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Will Smith snuck into a showing of \u201cAladdin\u201d at a theater in Calabasas over the weekend.
