POCATELLO, Idaho (KIFI) — A 20-year-old Pocatello man is facing felony charges after police say he intentionally drove his pickup truck over two Flock license plate reader cameras in the Lowe’s parking lot, causing an estimated $20,000 in damage.

According to court documents, officers responded around 11:53 p.m. July 7 after reports that a Dodge Ram had run over two cameras near the south parking lot entrances at Lowe’s on Bullock Street.

Police said two Lowe’s employees watched the truck strike one camera, stop briefly in a nearby parking lot, then deliberately drive over a second camera.

The truck was later located in the Costa Vida parking lot in Chubbuck, where Chubbuck police contacted the driver, Allyn James Carter. Police said Carter told officers he believed he had struck an unknown object near Red Robin on Yellowstone Avenue and was changing a flat tire.

Pocatello police later took over the investigation because the cameras were damaged within Pocatello city limits.

According to investigators, the truck’s damage matched the damage to the cameras. Officers also recovered a piece of rubber near one of the cameras that they believe matched Carter’s damaged front passenger tire.

The two Flock cameras were valued at approximately $10,000 each, according to the police report.

Carter was arrested on suspicion of felony malicious injury to property and misdemeanor failure to notify after striking fixtures. Court records show he was later released on his own recognizance.

His preliminary hearing has since been continued to Aug. 18.

Bond changed for alleged Boonville casino robber

KMIZ on July 28, 2026

Ryan Shiner

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

One of the men accused in the Isle of Capri casino robbery from late March has new options for his bond.

Benjamin Charles, 21, of Columbia, is charged in Cooper County with first-degree robbery, armed criminal action and tampering with evidence. He is currently in the Cooper County Jail. His original bond was $1.3 million.

A judge on Monday gave Charles two options for bond: A $1 million cash or surety bond or a $250,000 cash bond. A trial setting is scheduled for 9 a.m. Monday, Sept. 28.  

He is one of two men accused in the case. Hollis Vanleer Jr., 20, of Bloomington, Illinois, was arrested in his hometown last month. He is charged with first-degree robbery, armed criminal action and first-degree assault.

The pair, who were carrying guns when they entered the casino, allegedly took about $1.28 million from the main money drawer and that a patron had tackled one of the men, previous reporting from court documents shows. Vanleer hit the patron before the pair got away in a Ford Taurus, court documents in previous reporting say.

The vehicle was left in Howard County. Law enforcement found a receipt in the vehicle and were able to determine a card used in the purchase belonged to Charles, who was also determined to be an employee at the casino, the statement says.

Vanleer is also charged in Illinois in a separate case.

Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation opens doors for local students

KESQ on July 28, 2026

Matthew Pearce

CATHEDRAL CITY, Calif. (KESQ) — For the last 64 years, the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation has supported students nationwide in completing higher education.

This year, 2,906 students received scholarships with a record-breaking investment totaling $12.635 million.

The scholarship mission is to honor Marines and Navy corpsmen by supporting their children in pursuing higher education. In its time, MCSF has awarded nearly 60,000 scholarships totaling more than $235 million.

Alex and Destiny Isonhart are siblings and are two of the 237 California students who received scholarships from MCSF. They say the support is helping them become the best versions of themselves.

“It’s helping me focus on building connections with people,” Alex, who is entering his first year of college, said.

Meanwhile, Destiny has one more year in school before she hopes to enter the medical administration field. She says this scholarship has been a tremendous help during the three of four years she was getting assistance.

“It really helped me in the beginning because I was able to get a computer, which I didn’t have,” Destiny said. “Which helped me with my studies.”

In the future, when thanking a veteran from any branch of the military, don’t forget to thank their families as well.

Former MU defensive lineman sues NCAA for extra year of eligibility

KMIZ on July 28, 2026

Ryan Shiner

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A member of the Mizzou football team’s past two seasons is seeking an extra year of eligibility.

Defensive tackle Sterling Webb filed a lawsuit on Tuesday in St. Louis County against the NCAA, claiming that he should have one more year of eligibility.

Webb is seeking a declaratory judgement and claims there has been a breach of contract.

Webb played at New Mexico State during the 2022 and 2023 seasons before transferring to Missouri in 2024 and completing the 2025 season. The petition alleges that Webb should have an extra year left after the NCAA made eligibility changes to an “age-based model” of five seasons in five years.  

Webb was 18 years old when he started playing college football in 2022 and will be 23 this year. The petition alleges that recent seniors are excluded while still fitting in the framework of the rule and this year’s incoming freshmen benefit more.  

“But the NCAA did not stop at adopting the new model. It attached a transition condition providing that student-athletes who had already completed a fourth season of competition before the model takes effect, without a ‘redshirt year’  in reserve, get nothing (the “Transition Exclusion”),” the lawsuit says.

The petition alleges MU has a roster spot available to him and cites a recent court case in Texas that allowed an offensive lineman at Texas to play an extra year.

The lawsuit says Webb is seeking a decision on the matter before fall camp starts for the Tigers on Monday, Aug. 3.

Mizzou Athletics gave its support for Webb in a statement sent to ABC 17 News.

“Mizzou Athletics is aware of today’s court filing to consider Sterling Webb’s college football eligibility status,” the statement reads. “We support Sterling as he pursues his legal options and will continue to monitor the process. Because this is an active legal matter, we will not speculate on the outcome or provide further comment at this time.”

A motion hearing is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. Wednesday.

Fort Bliss unveils 1st 3D-printed barracks

KVIA on July 28, 2026

Olivia Vara

EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) — Fort Bliss officially opened the first of ten 3D-printed barracks this morning during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Custer Road.

The project, built in partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and construction technology firm ICON, marks the largest deployment of robotic construction capabilities for the Department of War to date, according to Fort Bliss officials.

Each barracks was built in just over six months, a fraction of the time required for traditional construction.

Once all ten are complete, officials say the complex will provide housing for up to 560 service members.

Officials add that the 3D-printed construction method is faster and more cost-effective than conventional building techniques and could transform how the Army builds infrastructure on installations nationwide.

According to the 1st Armored Division and Fort Bliss Public Affairs Office, the design prioritizes energy resilience, a key factor for operations in the harsh desert climate of Fort Bliss.

The nine remaining barracks are expected to follow in phases, with the full project serving as a model for future military housing.

The project marks the largest deployment of robotic construction capabilities for the Department of War to date, according to Fort Bliss officials.

Woman pleads guilty to smuggling scheme involving THC-laced candy to sedate children

KVIA on July 28, 2026

Max Zepeda

EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) — A 33-year-old woman from El Paso pleaded guilty to smuggling unaccompanied children in the U.S. Tuesday.

Dianne Guadian and three other members of an accused human smuggling organization brought accompanied children between the ages of 5-13 into the U.S. illegally from Juarez.

The other three members allegedly included her parents — Susana and Daniel Guadian from Mexico — and Manuel Valenzuela, an El Paso resident.

Valenzuela pleaded guilty in federal court in November 2025 for the smuggling scheme, which involved giving children THC-laced candy.

Federal prosecutors said the scheme lasted from March 2023 to October 2024.

Tuesday, prosecutors said in August 2024, border officials at the Paso Del Norte Port of Entry questioned a co-conspirator during an attempted smuggling attempt.

The co-conspirator said they had done so three times before and received $700 for each child they smuggled. Guadian confirmed this.

Prosecutors said in October 2024, two-co-conspirators tried to smuggle four minors across the same bridge. They reportedly provided Texas IDs. During interrogation, the co-conspirators tried to prove the children were theirs using photos that didn’t match the children seen in their van that day.

They told investigators they received $600 to smuggle the minors to Guadian in the U.S. and would receive $900 for each child in the end. Guadian also confirmed this.

Two of those minors went to the hospital and tested positive for consuming marijuana, prosecutors said. They were taken in the form of gummies.

Court documents state that the group would use drug-laced candy to sedate the children, then present false documents to immigration officials at the border crossing, ABC-7 previously reported.

Now, nearly two years since the original investigation began by the Department of Homeland Security, and nearly nine months the charges were initially made, Guadian pleaded guilty to all four counts against her.

By pleading guilty, her sentence at a minimum would be at least 16 years in prison with the potential of maximum of 50 years, including maximum fees for charges totaling $1 million.

Her sentencing date will be provided at a later time.

Ryan Shiner

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A man who allegedly pointed guns at passing vehicles near his Worley Street apartment on Friday night has been charged with felonies and misdemeanors in Boone County.

Glen Lee Parey, 53, was charged on Monday with unlawful use of a weapon, misdemeanor fourth-degree assault, first-degree harassment, misdemeanor misusing 911 and resisting arrest. He was also charged in a separate case for repeatedly misusing 911 in early June.

A public defender was appointed to determine Parey’s eligibility on Tuesday. A confined docket hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 4. A preliminary hearing is set for 9 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 10. He is being held at the Boone County Jail without bond.

The probable cause statement from Friday’s incident says Parey called dispatchers and made several threats, including saying he was going to kill the 911 operator and that he was “ready for a fight.”

Another person had called 911 stating that a man was pointing two guns at vehicles that drove by the 1400 block of West Worley Street, the statement says. Police called Parey and he allegedly admitted to doing it for his “protection,” the statement says.

Police went to the residence with an armored vehicle and made commands for him to come out. Previous reporting indicates he was arrested after 4 a.m. Saturday.
