Gun Laws Changing In New York In Response To Mass Shootings

NY governor signs law raising age to own semiautomatic rifle – The Associated Press

Governor of New York Kathy Hochul signed 10 bills passed by state lawmakers last week in the wake of the mass shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde, Texas. The legislation bans people under 21 from buying semi-automatic rifles like the AR-15-style weapon used in the Buffalo attack.

The legislation will also require licenses for semiautomatic rifle buyers, and restrict sales of bullet-resistant vests and armor to certain professions.

New York passed tough new gun laws last week after two mass shootings involving 18-year-old gunmen. The governor said the state will continue to invest in the prevention of gun-related crimes by partnering with local communities and putting pressure on Congress.

New Yorkers face stiffer barriers to buying bulletproof vests and body armor, but state Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins dismissed concerns about how the new law would affect ordinary New Yorkers.

New York’s red flag law was tweaked by newly signed legislation, and a threat of mass harm is now a crime punishable by up to a year in jail. Other measures aim to prevent gun crimes associated with gang violence that has occurred at a faster clip within the five boroughs.

New York Democrats used the gun control push to vilify the GOP ahead of elections this November, and ordinary New Yorkers said they hope new laws will help curb gun violence.

Man Drowns In Lake After Officers Refuse To Help Him

Bodycam shows Arizona officers stand by while man drowns, begs for help – New York Post

Police were responding to a reported disturbance between a couple when one of the people jumped into the lake. The police told the man not to swim in the lake, but the man took a few strokes out from the shore before he drowned.

A 12-minute video shows police talking to Sean Bickings and his wife near the Tempe City of the Arts and the Tempe Town Lake on May 28. Bickings told police he planned to drown in the lake.

Bickings was allegedly trying to escape arrest by swimming. When he was unable to swim to a nearby pylon when he was instructed to do so, an officer told him he wouldn’t be helped and that another officer was getting a boat.

The woman he was with told the officers to save Bickings when she saw that he hadn’t swam to the surface in too long of a time. She tried to jump off the railing to save the man, but was stopped by police.

A police body-cam video shows Sean Bickings talking to officers before he jumped into Tempe Town Lake. The video cuts out before Bickings is heard struggling in the water.

Jealous Girlfriend Runs Over Boyfriend With Her Car In A Fit Of Rage

Indiana woman allegedly kills guy pal after using AirTags to track him – New York Post

Indy Champions director Danyette Smith said domestic violence calls to IMPD have gone down, but there has been one noticeable increase: males calling about female suspects.

A woman was charged with murder after she allegedly followed a man she said was her boyfriend to a bar using an Apple AirTag, accused him of cheating on her and ran him over with her car.

Gaylyn Morris, 26, followed Andre Smith to Tilly’s Pub, where she told a witness she was going to beat up the other woman. Morris allegedly picked up an empty bottle and threatened to beat up the woman.

Smith was able to get between the two women and prevent a fight between them.

Despite the other woman being spared, Morris did intentionally run Smith over and killed him in the parking lot of a north side pub.

AirTags are coin-sized devices that use Bluetooth technology to help users locate lost items, but can also be used to track people.

Apple’s AirTag has been the subject of controversy since its introduction. Various lawmakers have tried to prevent their use as stalking devices.

The family of the victim want to remind others that resources are available to help prevent domestic violence before it turns deadly.

3D-Printed Body Parts May Be The Next Frontier Of Modern Medicine

A surgically implanted, 3D-printed ear marks a medical advance – NBC News

A 20-year-old woman who was born with a small and misshapen right ear received a 3-D printed ear implant made from her own cells. The new ear will continue to regenerate cartilage tissue, giving it the look and feel of a natural ear.

The patient’s ear implant was made from a tiny glob of cells harvested from her misshapen ear. It could be used to make many other body parts, including spinal discs, noses, knee menisci, rotator cuffs and reconstructive tissue for lumpectomies.

A 3-D printer creates a solid, three-dimensional object from a digital model by depositing material in thin layers. It uses a collagen-based “bio ink” that keeps the materials sterile.

Outside experts said it was the first time that 3D-printed tissue had been implanted into a human body. The success could open doors for investment and new excitement around 3D tissue printing.

The surgeon removed half of a gram of cartilage from the woman’s microtia ear remnant, shipped it to the 3DBio building in Long Island City, Queens, and mixed it with collagen-based bio-ink to create a small oblong shape. The ear was implanted under the patient’s skin.

3DBio has announced the results of a clinical trial to further develop the 3D-printing process. The trial has included 11 volunteers ages 6 to 25 to evaluate long-term safety and aesthetic outcomes.

The company has not publicly disclosed the technical details of the process, making it more difficult for outside experts to evaluate.
