SUMMARY: A zebra escaped from a trailer near Seattle and has remained elusive, while three others were quickly captured. Despite popular memes and false sightings, the zebra, named “Z,” has been spotted at a nature area. Authorities closed off trail access points to prevent people from spooking the zebra and making it harder to capture. The owner was transporting the zebras to a petting zoo in Montana when they escaped. Law enforcement and the public are working together to safely capture the zebra, with concerns about dangers in the area, such as cougars. Efforts are being made to rescue the zebra without interference from the public.

SUMMARY: Police in Houston have arrested 61-year-old Tamara Brown for allegedly breaking into multiple Westchase-area apartments damaged by Hurricane Beryl. Brown reportedly worked with two others, who remain at large. A man from Woodlake Oaks Apartments had to evacuate after his roof caved in and subsequently reported a burglary where thieves took electronics. Eyewitnesses found several garbage bags filled with potential stolen items outside the complex. In the Westbury neighborhood, Victoria Ma returned home to find her residence burglarized after losing power due to the hurricane. Brown was released on a $10,000 bond and ordered to stay 200 feet away from the complex.
