- A bystander filmed Wall Street Journal reporter Dion Rabouin being handcuffed and harassed by a police officer outside a Chase bank in Phoenix, Arizona, where Rabouin was reporting for a story while visiting family in the area.

- El Chapo's son Ovidio Guzmán, who's now a Sinaloa Cartel leader himself, has been recaptured by Mexican authorities.
