The Big Boom: Hotel Havoc!
Hold onto your Stetsons, folks! A historic hotel in downtown Fort Worth decided it wanted a front-row seat to the Fourth of July celebrations (a little early, we know) and went up in a fiery explosion. Thankfully, no one yee-hawed their last yee-haw, but 21 folks got a taste of the Wild West with some bumps and bruises, with one needing extra TLC at the hospital. Firefighters are still sifting through the wreckage, trying to figure out what sparked this fiery fiesta.
Breaking News: Apparently, the culprit wasn't a rogue firework, but a gas leak. Seems like someone forgot to turn off the happy juice!
Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.
Dastardly Deeds and Dumber Criminals
While the hotel went rogue, some folks decided to play their own brand of Fort Worth Follies. Here's a roundup of the city's finest (well, not exactly) criminal masterminds:
- A Shooting Spree: Someone with a serious case of the Mondays decided to settle it with bullets. Thankfully, no one got hurt, but detectives are hot on the trail of this trigger-happy varmint.
- The Borrower Who Never Returns (Except for the Body): A woman with a unique sense of "borrowing" decided to take a car for a spin. But wait, there's more! She also "borrowed" a deceased individual from a Fort Worth hospital. Luckily, the car (and the unexpected passenger) were found near the zoo. Guess she wasn't a fan of the hoofed company?
- DUI Delight (with a Bloody Twist): An 18-year-old with questionable decision-making skills got nabbed for driving under the influence. Here's the kicker: his truck was covered in someone else's blood! Police are asking anyone with info to come forward. This ain't exactly a scene from CSI: Fort Worth.
Note to self: Don't commit crimes in Fort Worth. The good guys (and gals) always win!
QuickTip: If you skimmed, go back for detail.
Other Fort Worth Fun Facts (Because Not Everything Can Be Crazy)

- Sadly, a body was found floating in the Trinity River. The cause of death is still under investigation. Here's hoping it wasn't foul play, but more of a tragic accident.
