    PORTSMOUTH, New Hampshire (WMUR) — A woman seen being embraced by a man at a Coldplay concert in Foxborough, Massachusetts, in July has filed for divorce through a New Hampshire court.

On Aug. 13, Kristin Cabot filed a petition for divorce from her husband, Privateer Rum CEO Andrew Cabot, in Portsmouth Circuit Court.

Kristin Cabot gained viral fame earlier in the summer when Coldplay frontman Chris Martin was highlighting people in the crowd on a big screen displayed at the July 16 concert. When the camera turned to Kristin Cabot and Andy Byron, she turned away and he ducked out of sight in what became a viral “kiss cam” moment.

Kristin Cabot served as chief people officer at the New York-based tech company Astronomer, while Byron, who was also married to someone else, was the chief executive of the company.

Kristin Cabot was placed on leave and resigned soon after the video went viral. Byron also resigned soon after being placed on leave.

According to court paperwork, a conference in the divorce proceedings, which are still ongoing, is scheduled for the end of November.

Woman arrested for practicing medicine without a license

    MARTIN COUNTY, Florida (WPBF) — A woman on the Treasure Coast was arrested on fraud allegations.

Meghan R. Pagano, 38, was arrested Sept. 1 in Martin County and charged with practice of medicine without an active license and criminal use of personal ID information.

Court documents note that on April 22, an official with the Florida Department of Health contacted a detective with the Martin County Sheriff’s Office in reference to a complaint about Pagano.

The complainant told the detective in a May meeting that they were informed that Pagano was using the complainant’s name and medical license on social media to administer Botox, fillers and other cosmetic procedures.

The complainant was concerned that their name was being used in association with medical procedures they were not performing.

It is believed Pagano had been doing the procedures for more than a year.

In July, the detective received another complaint about Pagano practicing medicine without a license.

The second complainant provided photos taken from Pagano’s Instagram account showing Pagano doing medical procedures.

The second complainant told the detective that they knew Pagano personally and that Pagano did not have the proper licensing to do the procedures posted on the social media account.

As of Monday, Sept. 8, the Instagram and Facebook accounts associated with Pagano are no longer active, but a website related to her company, Treasure Coast Aesthetic & Wellness Center, is active.

Court documents note that the detective was able to find the Instagram account, and on the account, it listed the name of the first complainant in the bio.

An Instagram video dated Jan. 5 showed an individual later identified as Pagano using a small needle to take multiple vials of blood from a person’s arm.

The video then shows the vial being mixed with other substances and filled into multiple syringes. Pagano is seen injecting the liquid filled syringes into the head of an unknown person.

Another video on July 19 allegedly shows Pagano inject a substance into a large lump/cyst. A scalpel is then used to cut into the flesh, cutting out a large cyst while the individual is bleeding.

A hand is seen using the scalpel to cut the cyst from the skin. The wound is stitched closed.

Law enforcement also confirmed that Pagano never held a license to perform the procedures shown on the Instagram account.

Law enforcement was able to determine that Pagano held a license for massaging or treating the face or scalp with oils, creams, lotions or other preparations along with permanent removal of hair using equipment.

On Thursday, Sept. 4, Pagano entered a not guilty plea. She is out of the Martin County Jail on $20,000 bond.

WPBF 25 News is awaiting a response from Pagano’s attorney about the charges.

70-year-old woman bites pit bull to save her dog during attack

    ORLANDO, Florida (WESH) — A 70-year-old Orlando woman says she had to fight off a pit bull to save her dog during a sudden attack outside a grocery store.

Shirley Pasamanick told WESH 2 she was leaving the store on Sept. 1 when a pit bull bolted toward her 14-year-old dog, Sparky, and latched onto him.

“It just out of nowhere bolted at us,” Pasamanick said. “And I did everything I could. We ended up on the ground.”

Surveillance video shows Pasamanick, who weighs about 90 pounds, using her cane and her hands in an effort to pry the dog off. When that didn’t work, she said, she resorted to biting the pit bull on the back of its neck.

“I couldn’t open his mouth,” Pasamanick said. “So … I bit him. I had to! I’m 91 pounds! I have no strength!”

The tactic worked long enough for a man — who Pasamanick says deputies are trying to identify — to pull the pit bull away. The man then walked off with the dog on a leash.

Sparky survived the attack but is still shaken, Pasamanick said. She credits the senior dog with giving her strength and purpose.

“Really, he’s the reason some days I get up,” she said. “You gotta take care of your dog.”

Wild boar charges at deputies after breaking into home

    LEHIGH ACRES, Florida (WFTX) — Newly released body camera video shows a boar charging at Lee County deputies. The massive animal forced it’s way into a Lehigh Acres home Thursday afternoon.

“There was this huge explosion. It was like a shotgun, only much louder,” said 82-year-old Edward Wells, who lives in the home. “I thought, ‘oh my God,’ we’re being bombed.”

Wells told FOX 4 the animal attacked his dog, Bailey. Then the animal broke through the back door of the home, shattering a sliding glass door. It stood in the living room for about 40 minutes, Wells said.

“He sounded like he had a stoke, because all he was saying was ‘giant pig and broken glass,’ ” said Stacy Wells, Ed’s daughter. “And that to me made no sense.”

That is, until Stacy got to the house.

“I walk in his door, and my God, there was a giant, 300-pound black, wild, board,” Stacy said.

The Sheriff’s Office released an edited version of the incident that shows the boar repeatedly charging at deputies.

“Easy, easy,” one of the deputies can be heard saying as the animal runs toward him. The boar continued to charge the deputy narrowly missing him. The video shows deputies repeatedly tried to lasso the boar with a rope before it ran away.

“It’s going east towards the woods,” one of the deputies can be heard saying.

Bailey, the dog, is recovering after Thursday’s incident. Bailey needed some stitches, Stacy said, but would be fine.

Earl Rivera with High Wind Shutters stopped by the house Friday evening to replace the sliding door for free. Rivera said he heard about what happened after his wife shared a Facebook post, and decided to help out.

Additionally, there will be a series of complimentary après activities focused on family fun added to the calendar!

Mt. Bachelor is projecting an opening date of November 28th, the day after Thanksgiving.

Read more from the press release below on additional announcements:

“Mt. Bachelor Announces Upgrades to Northwest Lift, New Community Programming and Passholder Perks 

Mt. Bachelor’s 24/25 season was one for the books with the earliest opening since 1998 and an above average season with over 450” of total snowfall. If thelong-range forecast holds true, skiers and riders will rejoice in yet another above-average snow season this winter.  

Looking to 25/26, Mt. Bachelor will begin upgrades to Northwest lift and introduce exciting additions to community programming, events, and passholder perks. A variety of season passes are available for purchase, with the best prices of the fall offered through September 30, including Kids Ski Freepasses, which go off sale on October 1.  

Here’s what skiers and riders can expect at Mt. Bachelor this season:

As part of Mt. Bachelor’s Play Forever initiative to protect the environment and support the community, work continues on the state-of-the-art wood-fuel energy facility. This project will allow Mt.

The facility is on track to be fully operational by fall of 2026.

Custom-fittings by skilled rental technicians at both Bend and Mountain Gateway will start in October.

Signature multi-week programs for kids will continue offering progression sessions for all ability levels, with the addition of a “Park Rats” terrain-park focused program for aspiring freestyle riders, a tele-ski session, women’s-only meetups, and an adult multi-week session perfect for parents with kids in the program. Signature Programs can be booked here.

Woman hopes to keep her pet peacock after finding egg in front yard

CNN Newsource on September 9, 2025

    CLEARWATER, Florida (WFTS) — A Clearwater woman is hoping to keep her pet peacock after Clearwater Police said a city ordinance prohibits homeowners from possessing certain types of wildlife.

Kira Viveiros found an egg in her front yard about four months ago.

She said sanctuaries could not help and told her that the bird’s mother should return within 24 hours.

Kira said that days passed, and the egg was abandoned, so she bought an incubator.

“I just wanted to save it so I got an incubator and he hatched a month later, but we had to assist because he would not have survived if we didn’t,” said Kira.

She said the peacock had become a pet, and she had cared for the bird ever since its birth.

“He’ll still go under the covers and snuggle and stuff like that. He loves TV. He became just very like a domestic pet. We easily could have just easily put him outside in a pen, but he got a little bit more spoiled than that,” said Kira.

Kira said peacocks roam the Clearwater neighborhood.

“They just roam. They go on the roofs. Most of the neighbors I know and people in this neighborhood are very kind and love the peacocks. People stop their cars to let them cross the road,” she said.

She said that on Labor Day, a misunderstanding between neighbors led to the Clearwater Police being called to her home.

“There was just a misunderstanding from the neighbor. She thought we just captured the bird when really she didn’t know that we’ve had it inside the whole time. It was her first time seeing it,” she said.

Clearwater Police officers advised Kira that she was violating city ordinance by keeping wildlife without a permit. She was warned she could face fines related to potential code violations.

A spokesperson for the Clearwater Police Department stated that officers could have issued an ordinance violation, but instead provided a warning due to the unique circumstances.

The spokesperson added, “Pinellas County Animal Services appears best suited to handle this because they have the ability to cite the owner and may even have resources to assist the owner in re-homing the animal. In the event those approaches aren’t successful, they have the means to remove the animal whereas we do not.”

Kira started an online petition, which has more than 500 signatures. She said many people support her keeping the bird as a pet. She also hopes to speak with members of the Clearwater City Council.

Currently, she said the peacock is safe at a nearby wildlife sanctuary. She hopes the situation can be resolved.

“I love him so much, and if you saw him with me, you would see that too. He is very attached,” she said.

El Paso County changes plan, will repave muddy Glider Loop with asphalt instead of chip seal

KRDO on September 9, 2025

Scott Harrison

EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. (KRDO) — A dozen or so homeowners along a gravel road just south of Black Forest are finally getting what they’ve wanted all along.

Asphalt pavement to eliminate slick, muddy conditions in wet weather on Glider Loop.

County officials recently changed their original plan to apply a double chip-seal pavement to the mile-long road and to put down an asphalt layer instead.

Paving is scheduled to begin on Thursday.

Crews spent the past week scraping off the existing gravel layer and hauling it away in dump trucks, in a process similar to the milling of old asphalt.

According to some neighbors, the muddy conditions began after heavy rain a year ago.

Those neighbors believe that, in an attempt to resolve the problem, crews applied clay-based gravel that absorbs water instead of sand-based material that promotes drainage.

“I think this was trial and error,” said neighbor Evelyn Billek. “A chip seal just wasn’t going to work.”

But Dan Gerhard, a county engineer, disagrees.

“We used material approved by CDOT (the Colorado Department of Transportation),” he said. “We don’t really know why that road is so muddy. We do know that gravel roads react differently to moisture in different parts of the county.”

KRDO 13’s The Road Warrior will continue to follow the developments on Glider Loop.
