Fort Worth: From Fireworks to Firetrucks - A June 30th Recap You Won't Believe
So, you missed the excitement in Fort Worth yesterday? Don't worry, we've got you covered. Buckle up, because June 30th was a whirlwind that would leave even a rodeo clown dizzy.
| What Happened In Fort Worth Yesterday |
Fireworks...Not the Planned Kind
We all love a good Fourth of July celebration, but things got a little literal near the Saginaw festivities. There were whispers of a stray shot lighting up the night sky (thankfully, no injuries reported). Maybe next year we stick to the professional displays, folks?
QuickTip: Let each idea sink in before moving on.
The Great Texas Chase-a-Roo
Hold onto your Stetsons, because a police chase straight out of a movie unfolded across Tarrant County. We're talking White Settlement to Fort Worth, folks! Thankfully, with the help of some high-tech tracking darts, spike strips, and a well-placed Taser, the perp was apprehended.
Tip: Don’t skim past key examples.
From Doobie Brothers to Drive-Bys
While a 15-year-old critic (seriously, how cool is that?) raved about the Doobie Brothers concert in Dallas, Fort Worth saw a different kind of headline. A man was tragically shot in his own home in a drive-by incident. This is a sobering reminder that gun violence is a serious issue, and our thoughts are with the victim's family.
QuickTip: Re-reading helps retention.
Not Your Average Day at the Office
Things got a little hairy for a Fort Worth police officer who's now under investigation for use of force. While details are still emerging, this is a developing story we'll be keeping an eye on.

Trucks, Tunes, and Tiny Tims
Rounding out the day, a truck driver sadly perished after his rig veered off course and into a house for sale. On a lighter note, a Carnival Cruise Line update had everyone quacking up (get it?) about hiding ducks. And finally, a former Fort Worth school teacher is facing child indecency charges. Sheesh, June 30th wasn't messing around!
