Mexican officials extradited the man who allegedly oversaw El Chapo's financial operations to the U.S. over the weekend as the feds continued to turn up the heat on the Sinaloa Cartel.  Jorge Pérez was handed over to U.S. federal agents at Mexico City International Airport on Sunday and flown to Washington, D.C., where he faces multiple charges. According to the Attorney General's Office of Mexico, Pérez reportedly functioned as the transnational criminal organization's financial officer. He is accused of overseeing the criminal organization's cash flow and was in charge of trafficking drugs from Latin America to the United States.  His extradition comes as U.S. officials have tightened their squeeze on the Sinaloa Cartel, run by El Chapo, who is being held at a super maximum penitentiary in Florence, Colorado. Already, U.S. authorities have arrested his wife Emma Coronel, who is being held at a prison in Virginia. Last Wednesday, a San Diego court sentenced Jorge Sánch

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Keith Kirkwood was hit in the neck area during practice Tuesday, carted off the field and taken away by ambulance before the player who struck him was kicked out of practice and waived. Coach Matt Rhule said Kirkwood has movement in his legs and is not feeling pain from what he called an 'unacceptable' hit by cornerback J.T. Ibe. 'It's obviously precautionary and we will wait and see after he's looked at what exactly (the injury) is,' Rhule said. 'That was just the early signs. ... I'm anxious to see what they say.' Rhule was clearly upset when talking about the play by Ibe, which halted practice for more than 10 minutes as the medical staff tended to Kirkwood on the field. Rhule gathered the players on an adjacent field and spoke to them while Kirkwood was placed in the ambulance.

The Metropolitan Police has today begun a new legal battle to sack a high-flying officer who was reinstated after a tribunal ruled she was unfairly dismissed over a child porn offence.   Superintendent Novlett Robyn Williams successfully appealed against the decision to fire her earlier this year and was brought back as a police officer. But the force is now applying for a judicial review, saying they believe the panel that overturned her sacking failed to properly assess the seriousness of her conviction. The highly decorated officer, who was commended for her work after the Grenfell Tower disaster, was sentenced to 200 hours of community service for possession of an indecent image in November 2019. She was dismissed from the Met with immediate effect after a special disciplinary hearing in March 2020 found her conviction amounted to 'gross misconduct'. Superintendent Novlett Robyn Williams (pictured in 2016) was unfairly dismissed for possessing child abuse images, a tribunal

A five-year-old boy whose body was found in a river over the weekend had been looking forward to being a page boy at his mother and stepfather's wedding next year, neighbours claimed today. Logan Williamson was discovered in the River Ogmore close to his home in the village of Sarn near Bridgend early on Saturday, and South Wales Police officers have been questioning three people on suspicion of murder. The boy's distraught mother Angharad Williamson had been due to marry her fiancé Jay Cole, a carer, next year after he proposed in May - and Logan was said to have been 'beyond excited' about the wedding.    The couple had been together for around three years after Miss Williamson and Logan moved to the ground-floor flat. Mr Cole later moved in after she split from her first husband after less than a year of marriage. One neighbour said today of Miss Williamson and Mr Cole's upcoming wedding: 'I think they were planning on getting married next year but they wante

A rogue stunt motorcyclist riding on a Chicago expressway caused a fiery crash on Saturday afternoon A rogue stunt biking gang causing a fiery crash Saturday afternoon on one of the busiest roads in Chicago was caught on video. CBS Chicago obtained footage of the horrific motorcycle accident, which left fellow riders fearing for their lives. The motorcyclists 'swarmed' the busy Stevenson Expressway before one rider 'pops a wheelie' putting his feet together in the air, said one witness. Within seconds, that motorcyclist, identified as Calien Rosas, loses control of the speeding bike as he attempts to get his feet back on the ground.  In a domino effect, a rider behind him then flips over the crashed bike, which ignites the fiery pileup.  Rebecca James was in a car behind hundreds of motorcycles, ATVs and dirtbikes at the time of the crash, and said the group crowded her lane in the moments leading up to the pileup.  'It was a swarm, to say the least,' James sai
