After a long fought battle with kidney cancer, Denise Richards’ mom Joni, died this week.

According to OK! Magazine, Denise Richards and her young daughters and father, held a two-week hospital bedside vigil during her mothers final days.

In February, the actress told PEOPLE her mother’s struggle with cancer was “hard,” and that she was helping to raise money for Houston’s M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, where her mom was being treated at the time.

Hostage Takers at Hillary Office

“A young woman with a 6-month or 8-month-old infant came rushing into the store just in tears, and she said, ‘You need to call 911. A man has just walked into the Clinton office, opened his coat and showed us a bomb strapped to his chest with duct tape.’”

These are the reports coming from one of the hostages that were released from the Hillary Clinton campaign offices this afternoon. Police are on the scene and we do not currently have anymore information on the situation but will update as we hear anything.

Nearby businesses have been evacuated, and the St. Elizabeth Seton School nearby has been locked down.

Several elementary and middle schools in the area locked their doors soft lock down. Children at the McLelland School, Maple Street School and William Allen School are only being released directly to their parents.

Hillary Clinton was not at the building and is currently in Washington.

Akon Charged For Stage Toss

Akon

Remember last June when it was reported that Akon threw a kid off stage at one of his performances? In case you didn’t hear sometime in June in NY when Akon was performing at a concert, someone in the crowd apparently threw something at the singer while he was on stage. Akon asked the crowd who threw it and to point them out. A security guard picked a 15-year-old out of the crowd and sent him up on the stage. Akon then lifted him onto his shoulders and threw him into the crowd.

The kid ended up landing on a girl who was injured by the kid.

You can see it in the video below.

It looks like he is now being charged with misdemeanor endangering the welfare of a minor and second-degree harassment. Akon is scheduled to appear in a local court on Monday for arraignment.
