SUMMARY: According to the Travis Heights neighborhood in South Austin, Texas, residents have had to pick up their mail from the post office as the postal services halted delivery due to aggressive wildlife. The neighborhood hawk has been particularly protective of its nest, causing residents and construction workers to be dive-bombed. The executive director of the Travis Audubon Society suggests that severe winter weather may have led birds to build their nests closer to humans. Wildlife biologist Blake Hendon estimates the hawk responsible is a red-tailed hawk, and people are advised to avoid the nest area until the fledglings hatch.

Reported hawk attacks in a South Austin neighborhood have caused mail delivery to temporarily stop, leaving residents to pick up their mail at a nearby post office.

SUMMARY: A newborn baby girl was abandoned on a bridge in Harris County just hours after birth, left exposed in the hot South Texas sun. The baby still had a fresh placenta attached. Around 9:00 a.m., a couple found her wrapped in a towel and immediately called 911. Paramedics arrived quickly and took her to the hospital where she is now recovering well. The incident was caught on security cameras, and detectives are currently searching for the man responsible, who will face charges of child endangerment and abandonment. The family who found the baby expressed disbelief and gratitude for being there in time to save her life.

Just as the sun was rising in the sky Saturday morning, a baby was born. Before lunch, a man dumped the baby on a walking trail near a bayou in Harris County.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office says the baby was found wrapped in a towel around 9 a.m. at the end of a cul-de-sac on Casa Martin Drive.

SUMMARY: The Rockwell County Sheriff's Office is seeking the thief who stole a trailer filled with props from a local dance studio. Surveillance footage captured the crime, which has severely impacted the dance studio just days before a national competition. The stolen trailer contained essential props for the dance routines, and its absence is a significant setback. Brent Stevenson's daughter dances at the studio, and he was the last to see the trailer after a recital on Sunday. The sheriff's office only has a partial license plate of the suspect's truck. The community is rallying to help rebuild the stolen items before the competition.
