Harlem, New York emcee and 3rd Rail Records boss, HOBX, has a lot of heat on deck, so let's get right to it with visuals for his "Saint Nick Freestyle."
NEW YORK (PIX11) — A third man was arrested in connection with the 2002 murder of Jason Mizell, also known as Jam Master Jay of Run-DMC, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York.
Jay Bryant, 49, of Queens, was being held on federal drug charges in an unrelated case & was awaiting arraignment Tuesday.
2 other men, Karl Jordan & Ronald Washington, were previously charged & waiting on their trial date.
The hip-hop star was shot & killed in his recording studio in Queens on Oct. 30, 2002. He was 37.
Jam Master Jay was one-third of the celebrated rap group Run-DMC — one of the most popular trios in hip-hop history. His fellow group members, Joseph “Run” Simmons & Darryl “D.M.C.” McDaniels, were not in the 2nd-floor studio on Merrick Boulevard in Jamaica when the gunfire broke out.
Mizell was known for his Adidas wardrobe, black hat, leather jacket & large, gold chain. As a DJ, he had hands of gold.
Mizell was playing video games on a couch in the studio shortly before 2 men were buzzed in by his assistant, Lydia High. 1 of them hugged Mizell before the first bullet was fired.
Mizell’s friend, Tony Rincon, was hit by 1 bullet in the leg & the next bullet hit Jay in the head, killing him.
2 juveniles were arrested while a third underage suspect remains at large in connection with the shooting deaths of 3 teenagers in Florida.
Christopher Atkins, 12, & Robert Robinson, 17, have been charged with first-degree murder in the killings that happened in less than a 48 hour period between March 30 & April 1 in Ocklawaha.
A third suspect, 16-year-old Tahj Brewton, is still being sought by authorities.
Layla Silvernail, 16, Camille Quarles, 16 & a 17-year-old boy – who has yet to be identified – were all found shot to death in 3 separate locations.
Sheriff Billy Woods revealed Friday that he believes all 3 victims were involved in burglaries & robberies & both the victims & suspects were allegedly "associated with a gang."
"Basically, in simple terms there is no honor among thieves," the sheriff said at a press conference. "And at some point, these 3 individuals turned on our 3 victims & murdered them."
Silvernail was the first victim to be found by investigators just before 11 p.m on March 30 laying on the side of the road suffering from a gunshot wound.
The girl was rushed to a local hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
Deputies said the next morning, around 8 a.m., a 17-year-old boy who'd been fatally shot was located on the side of the road. His identity has not been revealed.
Then on April 1, at about 12:30 p.m., investigators found the body of Quarles inside the trunk of Silvernail's abandoned car which was partially submerged near the edge of a small lake. She had also been fatally shot.

Video After The Jump
ST. LOUIS (AP) — A St. Louis County woman is charged with two counts of first-degree murder after she tracked down her stolen car & allegedly killed 2 men outside a gas station.
Demesha Coleman, 35, of Spanish Lake, was charged Thursday in the deaths of Darius Jackson, 19, & Joseph Farrar, 49. Another man was shot in the head during the shootout but survived.
It was not immediately clear which, if any, of the three men were suspected of stealing Coleman’s car.
Surveillance video showed Coleman walking up to a Hyundai Tucson at the gas station with a man who was also carrying a weapon. Police have not released the man’s name.
The video shows Coleman opening the car door with her gun raised, while the man opens another door, also with his gun raised.
Coleman opened fire and sparked the shootout, police said.
She told detectives during a recorded interview that she went to the gas station to take her stolen car back, police said.
Coleman, who has no prior criminal history, is charged with 2 counts of murder, 1 count of assault & 3 counts of armed criminal action.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey sought a pause in executions and ordered a “top-to-bottom” review of the state’s capital punishment system Monday after an unprecedented third failed lethal injection.
Ivey’s office issued a statement saying she had both asked Attorney General Steve Marshall to withdraw motions seeking execution dates for two inmates and requested that the Department of Corrections undertake a full review of the state’s execution process.
Ivey also requested that Marshall not seek additional execution dates for any other death row inmates until the review is complete.
The move followed the uncompleted execution Thursday of Kenneth Eugene Smith, which was the state’s second such instance of being unable to put an inmate to death in the past two months and its third since 2018. The state completed an execution in July, but only after a three-hour delay caused at least partly by the same problem with starting an IV line.
Denying that prison officials or law enforcement are to blame for the problems, Ivey said “legal tactics and criminals hijacking the system are at play here.”
“For the sake of the victims and their families, we’ve got to get this right,” she said.
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Officials say that a 6-year-old boy was killed after he was run over 3 times by a man who told police that he had been drinking on Saturday evening.
Pedro Alberto Hernandez, 52, is charged with murder & DWI 4th offense.
According to records, the boy was with his grandfather walking across a parking lot when he was struck.
The grandfather yelled at Hernandez, who then allegedly stopped, backed up & then ran over the child again, causing one of the tires to rest on the face of the child, as stated in records.
The grandfather continued shouting & Hernandez was again accused of running over the child for the third time.
The boy's grandfather told police that Hernandez reportedly smirked at him & attempted to drive off. The grandfather pulled Hernandez from his car & pinned him against the hood until other witnesses held Hernandez down until police arrived.
Hernandez admitted to drinking four 16-ounce beers while parked at work before driving to a washateria where he was going to meet someone who owed him money.
This would not be the first time Hernandez is accused of drinking & driving.
Records indicate he was convicted of driving while intoxicated in Harris County in 2015, convicted of DWI in Freestone County in 2016 & also convicted of DWI in Fort Bend County in 2020.
He is still serving 5-year probation for the 2020 DWI conviction.
Hernandez appeared in probable cause court Sunday, where a judge set his bond to a combined $600,000 for both charges.
LAS VEGAS (AP) — A homeowner accused of shooting three tenants, killing two of them, after an argument over unpaid rent at his Las Vegas home told a witness that “he didn’t want to go through the eviction process,” a prosecutor said Wednesday.
Arnoldo Lozano-Sanchez “wanted to handle it, quote-unquote, ‘his way,’” Chief Deputy District Attorney Tim Fattig told a judge.
The judge decided Lozano-Sanchez, 78, should remain jailed without bail pending his arraignment on murder & attempted murder charges in the slayings of two women & the wounding of a man who authorities said was shot nine times.
Lozano-Sanchez “made statements about the victims not paying rent and that he was certainly upset about it,” Fattig said.
Police reported arriving at his small home early Tuesday to find one woman dead outside, the wounded man stumbling out the front door & another woman dead in a bedroom.
The wounded man was hospitalized in critical condition but is expected to survive, police said.
Lozano-Sanchez refused to speak with police after his arrest. A police report obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal said he told a witness, Adria Ortega, several days ago that he was angry about his tenants not paying rent.
“Ortega suggested Lozano go to court to evict the people living inside his home. Lozano Sanchez told the witness he would ‘handle it his way,’” the report said.
Fattig revealed that another tenant, a man identified in the police report as Carlos Lopez, was in the house during the shooting but was not shot.
Lopez told police that he saw Lozano-Sanchez go into a bedroom where a woman pleaded for her life, multiple gunshots were fired and the wounded man ran out.
“The surviving roommate heard and saw the defendant enter into another bedroom in the house, and he heard cries for help from the occupants and thereafter heard the defendant shoot them,” Fattig told the judge. “He also saw the defendant exit that bedroom, smiling.”
The names of the victims, all in their 50s, were not immediately released.
Sarah Hawkins, a deputy public defender representing Lozano-Sanchez, protested that reading a police arrest statement in court did not amount to evidence. She lost a bid to have him freed on $10,000 bail & house arrest.
The judge set Lozano-Sanchez’s next court date for Monday.
Police say they had no immediate information linking the rent dispute with a nationwide eviction moratorium that expired last week but was reinstated for areas with high transmission of COVID-19, including Nevada.
The modified ban from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention faces legal challenges and lasts until Oct 3.
Fattig told the judge that Lozano-Sanchez asked a neighbor to help him dispose of the gun, but police found it in a nearby bush.
The allegations against NFL superstar Deshaun Watson are piling up ... a third female masseuse has filed a lawsuit against the QB, claiming he forced her to perform oral sex during a Dec. 2020 encounter.
The woman, who filed her suit under the pseudonym Jane Doe to protect her identity, claims Watson reached out on Instagram to set up a session.
The woman says the two agreed to an appointment at a Houston office building on Dec. 28, 2020 at 10 a.m.
Jane Doe -- who claims she was newly engaged & had just graduated chiropractic school -- says her mother dropped her off at the job, & then she met Watson & that's when she claims things immediately got weird.
The woman says Watson insisted she focus on massaging his "inner thighs" and "inner glutes" -- while repeatedly telling her he's a professional football player.
She claims Watson "got more aggressive" & eventually "coerced [Jane Doe] to move her mouth toward his penis, forcing [Jane Doe] to perform oral sex on him."
The woman claims she never consented to the sex act & actually "blacked out for a few minutes from the fear."
In her suit, the woman claims she was so terrified, she defecated on herself.
The woman says Watson got up, got dressed & left as if nothing happened.
The woman is suing for sexual assault, civil assault & intentional inflection of emotional distress.
It's the third lawsuit filed against Watson by attorney Tony Buzbee ... who claims there are at least 3 other women who will be taking legal action against the Houston Texans player.

LONDON (AP) — Pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca said Monday that late-stage trials showed its coronavirus vaccine was up to 90% effective, giving public health officials hope they may soon have access to a vaccine that is cheaper and easier to distribute than some of its rivals.
The results are based on interim analysis of trials in the U.K. and Brazil of a vaccine developed by Oxford University and manufactured by AstraZeneca. No hospitalizations or severe cases of COVID-19 were reported in those receiving the vaccine.
AstraZeneca is the third major drug company to report late-stage results for a potential COVID-19 vaccine as the world anxiously waits for scientific breakthroughs that will bring an end to a pandemic that has wrought economic devastation and resulted in nearly 1.4 million confirmed deaths.
Pfizer and Moderna last week reported preliminary results from late-stage trials showing their vaccines were almost 95% effective. But, unlike its rivals, the AstraZeneca vaccine doesn’t have to be stored at ultra-cold temperatures, making it easier to distribute, especially in developing countries.
“I think these are really exciting results,” Dr. Andrew Pollard, chief investigator for the trial, said during a news conference. “Because the vaccine can be stored at fridge temperatures, it can be distributed around the world using the normal immunization distribution system. And so our goal … to make sure that we have a vaccine that was accessible everywhere, I think we’ve actually managed to do that.”
The Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine is also cheaper. AstraZeneca, which has pledged it won’t make a profit on the vaccine during the pandemic, has reached agreements with governments and international health organizations that put its cost at about $2.50 a dose. Pfizer’s vaccine costs about $20 a dose, while Moderna’s is $15 to $25, based on agreements the companies have struck to supply their vaccines to the U.S. government.
All three vaccines must be approved by regulators before they can be widely distributed.
Oxford researchers and AstraZeneca stressed that they aren’t competing with other projects, and that multiple vaccines will be needed to reach enough of the world’s population and end the pandemic.
“We’re not thinking about vaccinations working in terms of one person at a time. We have to think about vaccinating communities, populations, reducing transmission within those populations, so that we really get on top of this pandemic,″ said Sarah Gilbert, a leader of the Oxford research team. “And that’s what it now looks like we’re going to have the ability to contribute to in a really big way.″

A judge on Thursday dismissed a third-degree murder charge against Derek Chauvin, one of four former Minneapolis police officers charged in the death of George Floyd.
Chauvin, who was released from custody this month on $1 million bond, will still face charges of second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter, Hennepin County Judge Peter A. Cahill ruled.
Video shows Chauvin pressing his knee onto Floyd’s neck for almost nine minutes while he is handcuffed and yelling that he can’t breathe.
Cahill also upheld the charges of aiding and abetting second-degree murder and aiding and abetting second-degree manslaughter against the officers – Tou Thao, Thomas K. Lane and J. Alexander Kueng – who were present at the time of the video.
KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) — Two people were killed and another was wounded as shots were fired late Tuesday in Kenosha, Wisconsin, during the third night of unrest following the police shooting of a Black man, Jacob Blake.
The shootings were reported at about 11:45 p.m. in an area where protests have taken place, Kenosha police Lt. Joseph Nosalik said in a news release. They happened after police drove away protesters from in front of a courthouse that had been the site of the main clashes between protesters and authorities.
Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth said one victim was shot in the head and another was shot in the chest, the Milwaukee Journal Sentine l reported. Beth didn’t know where the other person was shot, but that person’s injuries were not believed to be life-threatening.
Beth told the Journal Sentinel that armed people had been patrolling the city’s streets in recent nights, but he did not know if the shooter was among them.
“They’re a militia,” Beth said. “They’re like a vigilante group.”
He said authorities didn’t detain anyone over the shootings, but that investigators had reviewed video of what happened and that he was confident a man would be arrested soon.
Cellphone video of at least two of the shootings that was posted online shows what appears to be a white man with a semi-automatic rifle jogging down the middle of a street as a crowd and some police officers follow him. Someone in the crowd can be heard asking “What did he do?” and another person responds that the man had shot someone.
The man with the gun stumbles and falls, and as he’s approached by people in the crowd, he fires three or four shots from the seated position, hitting at least two people, including one who falls over and another who stumbles away to frantic shouts of “Medic! Medic!”
With the crowd scattering, the shooter stands up and continues walking down the street as police cars arrive. The man puts up his hands and walks toward the squad cars, with someone in the crowd yelling at police that the man had just shot someone, but several of the cars drive past him toward the people who had been shot.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Cheering protesters torched a Minneapolis police station Thursday that the department was forced to abandon as three days of violent protests spread to nearby St. Paul and angry demonstrations flared across the U.S over the death of George Floyd, a handcuffed black man who pleaded for air as a white police officer kneeled on his neck.
A police spokesman confirmed late Thursday that staff had evacuated the 3rd Precinct station, the focus of many of the protests, “in the interest of the safety of our personnel” shortly after 10 p.m. Livestream video showed the protesters entering the building, where fire alarms blared and sprinklers ran as blazes were set.
Protesters could be seen setting fire to a Minneapolis Police Department jacket and cheering.
Late Thursday, President Donald Trump blasted the “total lack of leadership” in Minneapolis. “Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts,” he said on Twitter.
