Blind Man and Guide Dog Survive Subway Incident

A blind man by the name of Cecil Williams and his guide dog fell onto the subway tracks as a train was approaching. Williams supposedly lost consciousness while waiting for the next train to arrive and fell onto the tracks. Williams said that his guide dog, Orlando, kept trying to hold him up as he was feeling woozy but couldn't keep him from falling. Although they fell, they were able to get to the middle of the tracks where one and a half train cars passed over them before coming to a stop. Luckily, they were both rescued with minor injuries.

First-Grade Suspended for 'Sexual Harassment'

In Canon City, Colorado, a six-year old boy was suspended from his school for "sexual harassment". His name is Hunter Yelton and he reportedly has had a crush on a girl in his class for a long time. So during their reading time he gave her a kiss on her hand. Although the girl was fine with it, Hunter was still sent to the principal's office and later suspended. Hunter's mom, Jenny Saunders, was told by the school's principal that his actions were seen as a type of sexual harassment. Saunders disagreed and said that sexual harassment is way too extreme, especially for a six-year old that merely kissed a girl on her hand. She thinks that her son should be punished for his actions but sexual harassment is over the top. The school is sticking to their stance because his actions fit the school's definition of sexual harassment. However, Hunter has also been suspended before for roughhousing and kissing the same girl on the cheek which might be why they classified it this time as sexual harassment.
