The death of beloved “Erie News Now” anchor Emily Matson, who was hit by a train early Monday morning in Pennsylvania’s Fairview Township, has been ruled a suicide.   Matson, 42, was struck by a train at around 12.45am on Monday, Dec. 11, in Fairview Township in Erie Pennsylvania, where she lived, according to Erie County Coroner's Office.   The Erie News Now anchor, who was married to police officer Ryan Onderko, was last on air Friday, Dec. 8, before the station announced her shocking passing on Monday.   Matson spent nearly 20 years hosting “Erie News Now,” most recently doing the 7 p.m. and 11 p.m. news. News director Scott MacDowell confirmed with a “heavy heart” that the network had lost its veteran presenter. “Emily was a shining light in our newsroom, delivering news with a passion and love she had for the Erie community and Northwest Pennsylvania,” he said in a statement.   Matson was first lured to WICU-TV — the NBC affiliate that hosts “Erie News...

  A psychic couple has said Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s marriage will not stand the test of time Craig and Jane Hamilton-Parker, a psychic husband and wife, spoke out about the “End of Prince Harry” in a special episode of their live-streamed show.   “We’ve said that ultimately we think he’ll probably get divorced… not in 2024,” Craig said.   He continued: “Suppose they did diverge… I would see Meghan fall into obscurity. She’s got this whole thing in her mind that she’s going to be a politician, the next Oprah perhaps – but if it wasn’t for Harry she’d be absolutely zero.” He added: “I think she’d become a second-rate talk show star if she broke with Harry.”   The psychics claimed that after the split, Harry would “come back to the UK” where he would need to “bury the hatchet with Charles” and “bury the Hatchet with William.”   Jane then stated that the “love is still there” between Charles and Harry.   This discussion was followed by a que...

A fight between civilians and one of Mexico's deadly drug cartels left 14 people dead, including 10 cartel hitmen.   According to a report from Univision Noticias, four others were injured with gunshot wounds and two people are missing after violence broke out in the State of Mexico. It is thought that members of La Familia Michoacana, a powerful drug trafficking organisation, recently announced the gang was increasing the extortion tax it imposes on farmers in the town of Texcaltitlán. This tax is common across Mexico, with businesses paying cartels to be allowed to operate without interference.   Reports suggest Texcaltitlán farmers met with La Familia Michoacana members at a football pitch last Friday, December 8. When the two sides couldn't come to an agreement over the tax, violence broke out. Videos from the football pitch show people running as gunshots are heard. Graphic images also show burned-out vehicles and dead bodies at the sc...
