Turns out, Taylor Swift likes basketball, too.

The global music superstar sat courtside at Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals on Saturday night along with fiance and Cleveland native Travis Kelce as the Cavaliers hosted the New York Knicks desperately needing a win in the series.

Swift and Kelce, who recently signed a 3-year, $54 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs, took their seats in Rocket Arena shortly before the opening tip. Their appearance caused a stir as fans reacted to seeing the power couple together.

Kelce didn’t need long to settle in and was animated while cheering for the Cavs.

Swift became a staple at Chiefs home games when she began dating Kelce a few years ago. She also accompanied him to Game 1 of the AL Championship Series at Yankee Stadium in 2024.

Kelce has attended Cavs games in the past and he and his brother, Jason, were celebrated with a bobblehead giveaway by Cleveland in 2024.

The couple announced their engagement last year and there are reports they’ll get married sometime this summer.

The Knicks have a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series after winning twice at Madison Square Garden.

Members of the public are advised not to approach him

A prisoner with links to Cambridgeshire has absconded. Police are asking the public to call 999 if they see him.

Sonny Loveridge, aged 28, was on temporary release. He failed to return to HMP Hollesley Bay in Suffolk on the evening of Tuesday, May 20.

Loveridge, who has connections to Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, is serving an 11 year and eight months sentence for causing death by dangerous driving and attempted robbery. He is described by Suffolk Police as white, of medium build and is approximately 5ft 9ins (175cm) in height.

Members of the public are advised not to approach him and should call police on 999 immediately if they see him, quoting crime reference 37/28856/26. Anyone who has any information regarding his whereabouts is asked to contact Suffolk police on 101.

The coastguard, air ambulance and paramedics were called to Seaham around 7.10pm on Friday (May 22).

The North East Ambulance Service (NEAS) confirmed one person tas taken to hospital after the coastguard assisted “evacuating” them.

A spokesperson for HM Coastguard added: “Seaham and Sunderland Coastguard Rescue Teams assisted NEAS at Seaham yesterday evening with evacuating a person to hospital.”

A Great North Air Ambulance spokesperson added: “At 7.10pm, our doctor and paramedic team were activated to an incident in Seaham.

“The team flew to the scene and arrived within 11 minutes.

“Upon arrival, our teams’ additional skills were not needed to treat the patient, and so they returned to base.”

Five Italian tourists drowned during a cave dive in the Maldives after reportedly being just 15 minutes from the surface

Five tourists who died during a cave dive in the Maldives were mere minutes away from reaching the surface when disaster struck.

The Italian victims were named as Monica Montefalcone, 52, a marine biologist from the University of Genoa, her daughter Giorgia Sommacal, 20, researcher Muriel Oddenino, 31, recent graduate Federico Gualtieri, 31, and diving instructor Gianluca Benedetti.

They were thought to be approximately 15 minutes from surfacing when they disappeared and were subsequently discovered deceased without appropriate gear, according to the New York Post.

Maldivian rescue diver Staff Sgt Mohamed Mahdhee also lost his life while attempting to locate the bodies, reports the Mirror.

Presidential spokesperson for the Maldives, Mohamed Hussain Sharee, stated the cave’s depth is such that even with top-tier equipment, divers typically avoid attempting to reach it.

“Tragic human error” played a significant role in the 14th May catastrophe, which claimed the group’s lives 200 feet beneath the surface, according to Finnish diver Sami Paakkarinen, among three individuals who assisted in body recovery.

“Unfortunately, in most cave diving accidents, the main cause is always human error,” he told the Sun.

He noted the group lacked essential cave-diving kit, including a diving reel or guided rope. Four bodies were retrieved together, Paakkarinen confirmed.

Gualtieri’s body was located on the day of the drowning and returned to Italy, while the remaining four victims were recovered on Monday.

Experts suggest the fatalities could also be connected to oxygen toxicity and panic.

Speaking to Italian publication Adnkronos, pulmonologist Claudio Micheletto indicated it’s probable “something went wrong with the tanks.”

Dr Micheletto, director of pulmonology at the University Hospital of Verona, explained: “Death from oxygen toxicity, or hyperoxia, is one of the most dramatic deaths that can occur during a dive – a horrible end.”

Divers typically breathe compressed air containing 21% oxygen and 79% nitrogen from their tanks. While nitrox, a higher-oxygen mixture, is commonly employed to minimise decompression sickness risks, descending too deep with this blend can trigger oxygen toxicity.

“When you breathe in too high a concentration of oxygen, the gas becomes toxic to the body,” Micheletto explained. “During the dive, dizziness, pain, altered consciousness and disorientation occur, making it impossible to surface.”

Alfonso Bolognini, president of the Italian Society of Underwater and Hyperbaric Medicine, noted: “Inside a cave at a depth of 50 meters, all it takes is a problem for a diver or a panic attack for a diver.

“The agitation will cause the water to become cloudy and can impair visibility,” potentially resulting in “fatal errors.

“It’s not easy to say now what exactly may have happened at the bottom of the sea,” he added.

He is described a being of a medium build with a shaved head

The police are appealing for information to help find a man who has been missing for eight days. Ghenadie Tanga, 43, was last seen leaving the Buffaload Logistics depot in Ellington, near Huntingdon, at about 9.45pm on Friday, May 15.

He is believed to have left on foot. Searches are being carried out in the Ellington area as part of efforts to locate him.

Ghenadie is described by Cambridgeshire Police as medium build with a shaved head. He was last seen wearing dark coloured trousers and a hi-vis jacket.

A spokesperson for Cambridgeshire Police said: “We are becoming increasingly concerned for his welfare.”

Anyone who believes they have seen him or who may have dashcam or doorbell footage from the area at the time he was last seen is urged to call 101 quoting incident 525 of May 18.

Antonelli was told to calm down by race engineer Peter “Bono” Bonnington after his outburst over the radio after the first incident. But when he carried on complaining, he earned a rebuke from his team principal Toto Wolff, who told him to “concentrate on the driving”.

Then, at the end of the race, after Antonelli went off track a third time trying to pass Norris and was looking to vent his spleen again on the cool-down lap, Wolff shut him down a second time. “Kimi, now is not the time to talk about this. We will talk about this later, not on the radio.”

The two Mercedes men had a brief handshake after getting out of their cars, but it promised to be an awkward debrief.

Sky Sports F1 pundit Martin Brundle said it was no surprise to see the two come to blows given they are fighting for the title. Russell is under pressure this weekend because Antonelli has won the last three races to take the championship lead.

“It was always going to happen. Inevitable. Kimi lost his head a little bit but he’ll learn from this,” was Brundle’s verdict.

The fighting at the front was the highlight of an entertaining sprint race in general. Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton looked as if he would take fourth spot for most of the race, only to clip the “Wall of Champions” late in the race. Hamilton was then passed by McLaren’s Oscar Piastri, losing position, which allowed Ferrari team-mate Charles Leclerc to pass him as well.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Secret Service shot a person near the White House on Saturday, and a bystander also was shot, a law enforcement official said.

Both individuals were said to be in critical condition, according to the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation.

Journalists working at the White House on Saturday reported hearing a series of gunshots and were told to seek shelter inside the press briefing room.

On X, the Secret Service said it was “aware of reports of shots fired near 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW” — one block from the White House — and was “working to corroborate the information with personnel on the ground.” It said it will have an update shortly.

In a social media post, FBI Director Kash Patel said officers were responding to shots fired and said he would “update the public as we’re able.”

President Donald Trump was inside the White House at the time.

In a post shared on X, Selina Wang, the senior White House correspondent for ABC News, shared dramatic video of the moment she said she heard what “sounded like dozens of gunshots” and ducked for cover. Writing that she had been performing a task that reporters at the White House do day in and day out — filming themselves on a cellphone, for a social media post — Wang’s video shows her speaking for a few seconds about Trump’s statements earlier Saturday about a potential Iran deal.

As the sounds of gunfire are heard in the background, Wang’s eyes grow wider, and she ducks down in the media tent, which is among those situated in a line along the White House driveway where broadcasters film their reports. On X, Wang’s video had been shared thousands of times as of Saturday evening, and viewed at least 3 million times.

The Metropolitan Police Department said on its X Account that the Secret Service was working the scene and cautioned people to avoid. The scene is near where a gunman ambushed two members of the West Virginia National Guard last November.

U.S. Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, 20, died from her wounds. Andrew Wolfe, then 24, was critically wounded. Rahmanullah Lakanwal has been charged in that incident.

The gunfire Saturday comes nearly a month after what law enforcement authorities said was an attempted assassination of the president on April 25 as he attended the annual White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner at a Washington hotel. Cole Tomas Allen, of Torrance, California, recently pleaded not guilty to charges that he attempted to kill Trump and remains in federal custody.

Following that scare, Secret Service officers shot a suspect they said had fired at officers near the Washington Monument, also near the White House. Michael Marx, 45, of Midland, Texas, was charged in a complaint filed in U.S. District Court in connection with the May 4 shooting. A teenage bystander was wounded in that incident.

The historic windmill still stands in Cambridgeshire today

In the past, windmills were a hive of activity with many in use across the country. However as years went on, the work at windmills started to decrease, leaving just the building behind.

Across Cambridgeshire, there are many windmills that still stand today and are popular with locals. What people may not know about these windmills is the history behind them.

Madingley Windmill in Cambridge has a very interesting history as there was once a time when the windmill was in a completely different place. Originally built in the 16th century, the mill was built with timber frames and weatherboarded on brick plinths. It also has a boat cap and four patent sails.

It was originally known as Ellington Mill, as it was based in Ellington near Huntingdon. In 1936, Walter Ambrose Harding of Madingley Hall in Cambridge purchased the mill.

He wanted to replace the former Madingley Mill, which was destroyed by a storm in July 1909. The former Ellington Mill was dismantled and moved around 20 miles down the road. Since then, the mill has been known as Madingley Mill and still stands today.

The windmill is now on private land, which means it is not open to the general public. However, with its fascinating past, the windmill is still something to admire as part of Cambridge’s rich history.
