THE SANDLOT: STAR CHARGED IN BRUTAL ATTACK
Michael Vitar, who played Benny in The Sandlot, has been arrested for allegedly beating a "grad student within an inch of his life," TMZ reports.
Vitar, who is now a firefighter, was taken into custody earlier this month and charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon. He was released last week on $30,000 bail.
The incident happened on Halloween. TMZ says two of Michael's friends, also firefighters, "spotted Samuel Chang passing out candy in the street of his gated L.A. community." They suspected the man of passing out tainted candy. They confronted Chang and then began beating him. Vitar allegedly joined in.
Chang's injuries included "burst blood vessels in the eye, bleeding on the brain, kidney failure and hemorrhaging due to suffocation." It's believed the firefighters were intoxicated.
Michael Vitar also appeared in D2: The Mighty Ducks and D3: The Mighty Ducks. He retired from acting in the late '90s.
HAYDEN PANETTIERE MAKES FIRST APPEARANCE AT CRITICS CHOICE AWARDS
Hayden Panettiere, who portrays Juliette Barnes on ABC’s “Nashville,” was on the red carpet at the Critics’ Choice Awards Sunday night, one of her first public outings since she underwent treatment for postpartum depression.
Panettiere, whose daughter Kaya is now one, says she is very proud to inspire others who might need to seek help in handling postpartum depression.
“I've gotten an incredible amount of support and I was actually really surprised, ‘cause I feel like I grew up in this industry that, in my mind, was very judgmental,' the former child star told “Entertainment Tonight.” She added that she didn’t check into any social media sites because she felt that people had been waiting for her to fail.
“When I looked, people were like, ‘Oh my gosh, good for you,’ and I am so proud to be a spokesperson and a woman that people can look to and to know that they're not alone and they're not weak if they go and they seek help.”
FLORIDA RESIDENT FINDS SHARK IN SWIMMING POOL
A Mariner's Cay condominium resident in Lake Worth, Florida found something she wasn’t exactly please to see in the swimming pool at the complex where she lives.
The resident was surprised to find a five-foot black tip shark in the condominium pool when she went to the pool on Saturday. The shark was removed by Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officers, according to a local newspaper.
It is possible the people who put the shark in the pool can be caught. The woman saw two men running from the scene at the time of her discovery and there are surveillance cameras in the area.
Local authorities are treating the incident as an ongoing and active investigation. The shark was released back into the Intracoastal Waterway once it was removed from the pool.
