Natalee Holloway case: Aruban guide hired by Beth Holloway says island took economic hit after disappearance
Aruban guide that Beth Holloway and friends hired in the wake of her daughter, Natalee Holloway, going missing in 2005, says the island has taken an economic hit ever since the Alabama student went missing.Natalee Holloway disappeared during a 2005 Mountain Brook High School senior trip in Aruba. The primary suspect, Joren van der Sloot, is currently in a Lima, Peru, prison serving a 28-year prison sentence for the killing of 21-year-old Stephany Flores in Lima.Flores was killed by van der Sloot on May 30, 2010 — exactly five years after Natalee Holloway was last seen alive.Peruvian officials announced late Wednesday van der Sloot would be temporarily extradited to the U.S., where he will face charges relating to an alleged extortion scheme to get money from the Holloways.After getting word in 2005 that her daughter was missing, Beth Holloway and a group of friends flew down to Aruba and hired Alberto Groeneveldt to be their guide, and assist them in the search for Natalee Holloway, according to an episode of ABC's "20/20" that aired in 2019.In a phone call with FOX Business, Groeneveldt, who owns an event planning business, said that the island has taken an economic hit ever since the disappearance.He said business in the area has "picked up a little bit" but said, "it's not like before."Specifically, Groeneveldt cited a decrease in clubs in the area, in addition to a drop in cruises that make stops in Aruba.

(Credit: Israel Antiquities Authority via Storyful)JERUSALEM - Archaeologists in Israel have discovered 1,800-year-old marble artifacts on the seabed near Netanya, just north of Tel Aviv. The artifacts were discovered aboard a ship that was wrecked in shallow waters of the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Beit Yanai, just north of Netanya, according to the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) which reported the findings on May 15. The vessel included "corinthian capitals decorated with vegetal motifs, partially carved capitals, and a huge marble architrave, measuring up to 6 meters long," the IAA said."It seems that these valuable architectural elements were destined for a magnificent public building—a temple or perhaps a theatre," said the IAA.The location of the artifacts was reported a few weeks earlier by an experienced sea swimmer, Gideon Harris, who reported seeing "ancient columns" on the seabed off Beit Yanai beach, according to the IAA.Koby Sharvit, the head of the IAA’s underwater archaeology unit, said they had "been aware of the existence of this shipwrecked cargo for a long time" but did not know its exact location."From the size of the architectural elements, we can calculate the dimensions of the ship; we are talking about a merchant ship that could bear a cargo of at least 200 tons," said Sharvit.

"She was in tears." Plasse-Young’s car costs about $19,000 and she and her former daughter-in-law plan to get her car payments refinanced so she doesn’t have to struggle so much to afford it. "Thankful, so very thankful," Plasse-Young said in a statement.

Watch: Driver stops on busy Florida highway for turtle crossing road, causes multi-vehicle crash
DEFUNIAK SPRINGS, Fla. - A traffic jam over a turtle in the road caused a crash involving multiple vehicles, including a semi-truck, on a highway in the Florida Panhandle Tuesday. The crash happened Tuesday in Walton County after a driver stopped on US-331 to let the turtle cross the road, according to authorities in Walton County."Residents and visitors alike should marvel at the many species that call Florida home. Just preferably not in the middle of the road," the Walton County Sheriff's Office said in a Facebook post. WATCH: Black bear caught on camera wandering through Carrollwood, Lutz neighborhoodsDashcam video was released by Walton County deputies after the crash to caution drives against causing "a road obstruction because of a reptilian obstruction."The video from a truck that was involved in the crash captures the moments the driver failed to brake in time and rear ended at least two vehicles. MORE: Police respond to calls for help, turns out to be 'very upset goat'Before it happened, several cars were seen on the dashcam footage stopped in the southbound lanes of US-331 near Defuniak Springs. "While no ill intentions were meant, trying to avoid or assist an animal who has made its way onto a busy road can cause you or other drivers life-threatening injuries," WCSO said.Deputies said no one was seriously injured in the crash, and the turtle also survived.

DA declines to prosecute Walgreens security guard for deadly shooting of Banko Brown; video released
SAN FRANCISCO - The security guard who shot and killed alleged shoplifter Banko Brown outside a Walgreens in San Francisco will not be prosecuted, San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins told KTVU in a one-on-one interview on Monday. "We do not believe there is sufficient evidence to overcome what we would expect his defense of self-defense to be," Jenkins said. "[Anthony] has specifically articulated to the police, more than once, the facts surrounding the incident and explained that he believed he was in imminent danger, and at this time we don’t believe there is anything to overcome those statements." Michael Earl-Wayne Anthony, 33, was working as a security guard for the Walgreens at 4th and Market Streets in San Francisco, when he shot and killed Brown, 24, on April 27 during an altercation in which Brown was allegedly shoplifting. In a surveillance video obtained by KTVU, Anthony can be seen trying to stop Brown as he tries to leave Walgreens with a bag of items. The video shows Anthony trying to stop Brown from exiting the store with a blue bag filled with items, and Brown pushing Anthony's shoulder first. Anthony then shoves back, the video shows, and the two began to physically struggle. The pair began to wrestle and Anthony brings Brown to the ground and applies what looks like a choke hold while on Brown's back, the video shows.
