Alligator attacks DWI suspect who was fleeing police, Louisiana authorities say

June 9, 2026 / 10:56 AM EDT / CBS News

A man suspected of driving while impaired was attacked by an alligator after attempting to flee police in Louisiana, local and state authorities said.

Victor Rivas, 40, struck a concrete barrier and blew out a tire on the Toyota Supra he was driving near New Orleans on Sunday, according to Louisiana State Police. Rivas continued driving, but troopers later pulled him over along an interstate highway in St. Charles Parish and “observed signs of impairment.”

As troopers began a DWI investigation, Rivas fled the scene on foot, jumping from an elevated section of the highway into a swamp below, state police said. They began to search for him with help from St. Charles Parish sheriff’s deputies, eventually spotting him walking along a different highway in the area.

When Rivas was approached by law enforcement for the second time, he again attempted to flee into a nearby swamp. An alligator emerged from the water once Rivas entered it, attacking him and injuring both of his arms, state police and the sheriff’s office said.

Body camera footage, which the sheriff’s office shared online, showed the attack taking place from a distance, with the alligator and Rivas seen thrashing around near the bank of the swamp for about 30 seconds.

Rivas tried to continue to flee law enforcement, despite the injuries to his arms, authorities said. But he was found using drones and taken into custody after first receiving treatment for his injuries at a hospital. The sheriff’s office said his injuries were not considered life-threatening.

Rivas has been booked at Nelson Coleman Correctional Center on charges of driving while impaired and resisting an officer, according to the sheriff. State police said they have warrants for his arrest on additional charges related to the initial highway crash that prompted their traffic stop.

“Impaired driving can lead to serious and unpredictable consequences,” state police said. “Motorists are urged to make responsible decisions, plan ahead, and always designate a sober driver.”

一名欧盟外交消息人士称，欧盟将提出第21轮对俄制裁方案，目标是俄罗斯的银行和加密货币网络，以增加俄罗斯银行业危机爆发的可能性，并促使莫斯科寻求和平谈判的意愿。

路透社引述消息人士报道称，欧盟预计星期三（6月10日）提出第21轮对俄制裁方案，预计将一次性制裁多达90家银行，这将使得被制裁的银行总数超过100家，覆盖俄罗斯超过一半与国际体系有关的贷款机构，是迄今规模最大的一次制裁。

这些银行将受到欧盟制裁的全面制裁，包括资产冻结、旅行禁令和交易禁令。

消息人士补充说，除了欧盟对外行动署（EEAS）公布的制裁名单外，欧盟委员会也将提议禁止与35家银行，以及十余个加密货币平台进行交易，这些平台被指协助俄罗斯在第三国规避西方限制。

欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩星期二（9日）也说，欧盟委员会已提出针对俄罗斯的第21轮制裁方案，目标包括能源、金融服务和加密货币、贸易以及首次纳入制裁范围的渔业等关键领域。

冯德莱恩也说，欧盟正在寻求对在乌克兰作战的俄罗斯人实施入境禁令。“我们首次提议禁止任何自战争开始以来曾在俄罗斯武装部队服役的人进入欧盟。”

Meta launches program to train workers for data center jobs

Megan Cerullo is a New York-based reporter for CBS MoneyWatch covering small business, workplace, health care, consumer spending and personal finance topics. She regularly appears on CBS News 24/7 to discuss her reporting.

Meta Platforms is offering free training for people to work in its data centers and guaranteeing them a job in a skilled trade after completing a five-week course.

The technology giant announced on Monday that it is committing $115 million to the program, which is open to qualified veterans, career changers and others who want to enter the skilled trades. The initiative, dubbed “America’s workforce academy,” will first launch in Indiana, Louisiana, Ohio and Texas.

Meta cited a nationwide shortage of fiber technicians, welders, plumbers, electricians and other skilled tradespeople needed to build data centers.

“Every graduate will leave with a verified, industry-standard credential in high-demand fields such as electrical work, mechanical systems and plumbing,” Meta said in a statement.

Technology companies are racing to build data centers to power the development of artificial intelligence. The U.S. has roughly 4,000 existing data centers, while some 3,000 more have been announced or are under construction, according to Apollo Global Management.

All data centers together are expected to create 4.7 million temporary construction jobs in the U.S., according to a 2025 report from the American Edge Project, a policy advocacy group formed by Meta that promotes tech industry interests. The group expects data centers to create roughly 700,000 permanent jobs to operate and manage the facilities.

The rapid data center buildout has generated public opposition from some communities, which say it strains local power grids, raises environmental concerns and fails to boost local economies.

（纽约彭博电）随着越来越多美国人从事自由职业、合同工作和副业，通过多种渠道赚取收入已日益普遍。数据显示，同时拥有多种收入来源的美国人自2024年以来增长超过30%。

根据金融服务平台Cash App的调查，目前拥有多个收入来源的美国人已达5400万，两年前为4100万。这一增长主要由Z世代（1997年至2012年出生）推动，其中近16%的人拥有多份工作，是婴儿潮一代（1946年至1964年出生）的五倍。

Cash App的用户群体中，57%通过自由职业、创业、内容创作、副业或打多份工来赚取收入。美国人的赚钱方式发生了根本性的变化，例如约有2200万13岁至17岁的青少年通过兼职、非正式或线上工作赚钱，包括游戏直播、在Roblox等游戏平台赚钱，以及线上转售商品。

美国纽约联邦储备银行周一（6月8日）发布的调查结果显示，美国人对劳动力市场的看法在5月份变得更加悲观，求职者对就业前景的评价跌至今年以来最低水平。受访者认为未来12个月失业的概率上升0.5个百分点，至15.1%；他们对自己能找到工作的信心下降2.3个百分点，至43.7%，创去年12月以来最低。

纽约联储银行的调查也印证了其他报告的结论，即消费者信心已跌至历史低点，这主要与油价上涨以及特朗普政府的关税措施有关。认为自身财务状况比去年更糟的美国家庭比例，达到了自2023年1月以来的最高水平。更多消费者也预计未来一年的财务状况将进一步恶化。

5月份，消费者更强烈认为可能在未来三个月内，无力偿还贷款的最低还款额，有此感觉者以最多只有高中学历、年收入低于10万美元（约13万新元）的消费者居多。

英格兰西北部城市曼彻斯特发生的一起校园持刀伤人事件，两名学生和一名教职员工受伤，一名14岁女学生被捕。

法新社报道，大曼彻斯特警方星期二（6月9日）发声明说，这名女孩因在曼彻斯特市中心北部合作学院（Co-op Academy）涉嫌实施袭击而被捕，她目前被拘留接受讯问。

这起事件造成三人受伤，分别是14岁女学生、14岁男学生和一名27岁教职员工。

警方说：“所有伤者都送往医院治疗，所幸伤势并不严重，目前情况稳定。”

据《曼彻斯特晚报》报道，袭击发生后，学校立即进入封锁状态，紧急车辆包围整栋教学楼。

警方在学校及周边地区增强警力部署，并安抚社区居民。

英国政府正努力打击青少年持刀犯罪和销售违禁刀具，包括通过网络平台销售的刀具。

今年2月，一名13岁男孩因涉嫌在伦敦一所学校刺伤两名男孩而被捕。

US customs agency, trade judge to seek path to final tariff refunds

• Summary
• Companies

• CBP processing nearly $90 billion in Phase 1 tariff refund claims
• Complex cases involve liquidated tariffs, requiring lawsuits for refunds
• Importers seek class certification to streamline refunds, avoid individual lawsuits

NEW YORK, June 9 (Reuters) – Officials from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency head to a federal trade court on Tuesday to try to find a way to refund tens of billions of dollars of tariffs that were collected and later deemed illegal by the Supreme Court.

Judge Richard Eaton of the Court of International Trade in Manhattan has framed the hearing as a negotiating session to sort out what needs to be done to return the remaining chunk of the $166 billion in illegal tariffs.

“All of the substantive law in this case has either been decided by the Supreme Court, or is the subject of settled law,” Eaton wrote in a letter that appeared on the court docket on June 3. “All that remains are, what might be termed, settlement negotiations.”

The CBP has said that it has accepted and started processing claims for nearly $90 billion in refunds of what it estimates could be up to $127 billion in so-called Phase 1 refunds, which are the least-complicated cases. The CBP said in a June 4 court filing that $22 billion in refunds have been completed and sent to the Treasury Department for distribution to importers.

The next phase involves more legally complicated and older, so-called liquidated tariffs. An importer typically pays an estimated tariff and around a year later the CBP finalizes the tariff amount, which is called liquidation. CBP has said it can only process liquidated tariffs in certain situations or if the importer sues.

Smaller companies, which make up the vast bulk of importers, fear the cost of suing and the time and distraction involved might not be worth the effort to obtain a refund.

Eaton wrote the June 3 letter in response to the government resisting his order that the CBP commissioner appear at Tuesday’s hearing. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit later temporarily stayed that order and Eaton agreed to allow CBP to send a lower-ranking official.

The CBP has also argued that the Supreme Court ruled last year that federal judges lack the authority to issue nationwide injunctions.

To circumvent that potential problem, companies have asked Eaton to certify a class of all importers who paid the illegal tariffs. Creating a class of importers could give Eaton a path to issue a single order that would apply to all importers and simplify the refund process without the need for each importer to file a lawsuit.

The U.S. Supreme Court struck down tariffs U.S. President Donald Trump imposed under an emergency economic law in February. The Trump administration, which has put tariffs at the center of its trade policy, has since used other legal authorities to impose new tariffs.

Social Security insolvency now projected for 2032, putting benefits at risk of a 22% cut

June 9, 2026 / 11:50 AM EDT / CBS News

Social Security’s trustees report said the program is on track to become insolvent by the end of 2032, when the program’s beneficiaries will get a 22% cut in their monthly checks.

Social Security guarantees income to over 70 million Americans. Across-the-board benefit cuts would significantly impact retirees, disabled workers and survivors, especially amid rising living costs.

Social Security keeps more Americans out of poverty than any other program in the U.S., according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a left-leaning think tank.

In last year’s report, the program’s trustees projected that the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance fund, which pays benefits to retirees and survivors of deceased workers, would be depleted in 2033. In August, the agency moved the insolvency date to the end of 2032, citing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act’s effect on taxation of benefits.

On Tuesday, the Social Security Administration said the agency would pay 78% of benefits upon insolvency.

Social Security has long faced funding pressures, though the projected trust fund depletion date shifts from year to year as economic and demographic factors change. The core challenge is an aging U.S. population: More Americans are collecting benefits, while fewer workers support the program through payroll taxes, forcing Social Security to draw down its trust funds.

A common misconception is that insolvency would mean Social Security could no longer pay benefits. Instead, beneficiaries would continue receiving monthly checks, although at reduced levels — an outcome advocates for older Americans warn could create financial hardship for millions of the program’s beneficiaries.

“The Trustees report is essentially an annual financial checkup for Social Security,” said Richard Johnson, vice president of financial security at the AARP Public Policy Institute, in a May 28 conference call to discuss the program’s financial issues.

He added, “When we talk about Social Security solvency date, it’s important to be precise about what insolvency means and what it doesn’t mean. It doesn’t mean that Social Security will stop paying benefits. It does not mean the program is bankrupt. Social Security will continue to receive payroll tax revenue from workers and employers.”

Projected cuts

Based on last year’s Trustees report, Social Security’s beneficiaries could see their monthly benefit checks slashed by an average of about $500 if the program’s retirement trust fund becomes insolvent, according to a report published earlier this month by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, a fiscal policy think tank.

The reduction would amount to a 24% cut in the typical benefit payment, the analysis found.

Advocacy groups, including AARP, have long urged Congress to strengthen Social Security’s finances. Proposals generally involve either raising additional revenue, reducing future benefits or some combination of the two. Some Republicans have proposed raising the full retirement age above 67, while many Democrats favor increasing payroll tax revenue.

For instance, some advocates have pushed to eliminate the income cap on the payroll tax. Currently, workers who earn over $184,500 don’t pay Social Security taxes on any amount above that.

德国数据：出于政治动机犯罪创历史新高

德国数据：出于政治动机犯罪创历史新高

德国内政部长多布林特星期二（6月9日），在柏林发布年度政治犯罪报告。 （路透社）

德国政府指出，过去10年间，出于极右翼及其他政治动机的犯罪案件数量已翻倍，去年更创下历史新高。

法新社报道，去年接到这类案件的通报数量上升2%，达到8万5837起，包括仇恨言论、财产犯罪和人身攻击，其中约一半的犯罪动机源于右翼意识形态。

德国内政部长多布林特说：“绝大多数犯罪是由右翼和极右翼分子实施的。”

不过，他强调，左翼犯罪案件的增幅最为显著。

安全部门指出，网络言论日益激烈，助长了街头的仇恨与暴力。

联邦刑事警察局局长明希说：“社交媒体是社会两极分化的主要驱动因素，仇恨、煽动和宣传正是通过这些渠道传播的。这加速激进化进程，在最糟糕的情况下，会导致现实世界中的严重犯罪。”

在暴力犯罪案件方面，警方说这类案件去年上升1.2%，达到4156起，创10年来新高。

多布林特说：“左翼和右翼极端主义领域的暴力犯罪都在显著上升。”

基于对特定群体偏见而实施所谓的“仇恨犯罪”则增加1.8%，达到2万2159起。其中，超过80%的案件是出于仇外心理；其次是反犹太主义犯罪。安全部门也记录到，宗教动机犯罪案件上升5.7%，达到1983起。

明希指出，在网络空间发生的“虚无主义犯罪”，是“去两三年越来越明显的一种现象”。

他说，犯罪者大多是年轻的男性，他们利用网络“试图诱骗弱势群体自残，拍摄他们的自拍照用于敲诈勒索，最终甚至将他们逼至死亡”。

今年，汉堡一家德国少年法庭审理所谓的“白虎”案，一名男子被控犯有多项网络虐待罪行，包括胁迫一名13岁的跨性别青少年自杀。
