The incident took place at around 3 a.m. on Sunday in the 3700 block of Pacific Avenue in Wildwood, the Cape May County Prosecutor’s Office said. The video, which was originally posted on Snapchat, attracted more than 100,000 views after it was shared on Twitter at the weekend. It shows a number of officers restraining the man on the ground while others form a barrier around them, blocking the view of the scene and preventing onlookers from getting to the man....

The IOC coordination commission chief John Coates gave an unequivocal answer when asked if he supported an appeal made to Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe last month following a deadly summer heatwave across the country. “Yes – we’ve observed the discussions that are happening in this country,” Coates told a news conference. “We’ve paid a lot of attention to heat, primarily on athletes but also on spectators,” he added after pleas to stage the events, particularly the marathon, in cooler hours....

Cheerleaders often get the worst of it. Especially this poor Iowa State cheerleader, who was on the baseline with the rest of her teammates when a Cyclones player accidentally booted an inbound pass directly into her noggin. PHOTOS: The most hilarious faces of the NCAA Tournament This seriously had to hurt. Hopefully she is OK.

Having been put to bat by Rohit Sharma, Delhi, despite Mayank Agarwal’s early wicket got off to a flier. JP Duminy and Shreyas Iyer put together a 154-run stand that not only helped the home side to recover from the early jolt, but put them firmly in the driver’s seat. After the first 10 overs, one could be forgiven for thinking that Mumbai were in command having restricted Delhi to 65/1....

Daredevils, who had lost nine consecutive matches in the last edition and the first match of this edition, scored 184/3 in 20 overs. They got the bulk of their runs through openers Mayank Agarwal (37 in 21 deliveries) and Shreyas Iyer (40 in 30 balls). Skipper Jean-Paul Duminy (not out 44), Yuvraj Singh (27 runs in 17 balls) and Angelo Mathews (not out 27 in 14 balls) provided a late spark....

Batting first, Mumbai lost wickets at regular intervals and could manage only 143/8 in 20 overs. Parthiv Patel (34) was the top scorer for the hosts. In reply, in-form Finch showed his class yet again as he struck seven boundaries and one six in his 54-ball innings as Lions chased down the target comfortably posting 147/7 in 20 overs to register their third straight win of the season. Mitchell McClenaghan (4-20) was the pick of the bowlers for Mumbai....

“He (Stokes) has always been a decent bowler. I don’t think one bad night should define his career and in the aftermath of the World T20, that seemed to be the case. There was probably a lot more spotlight on him in this tournament than usual because of the price tag, and he has shown a lot of mental toughness in returning to India and the scene of the crime, if you want to call it that,” Brathwaite told Sky Sports....

“We are looking at IPL as a big opportunity. There are a couple of franchises, which we know, are looking to exit. So, we are actively looking at that. The IPL will be a profit—making venture. I think all IPL teams will make money.” In case you didn’t know… This is not the first time the JSW Group are keen to buy an IPL team. Apparently, in 2015 the conglomerate was close to buying a franchise in the glamorous league before it was hit by an ugly betting scandal which saw teams like Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals get suspended from the cash-rich tournament....

In case you didn’t know… In February earlier this year, Pietersen withdrew from the 2017 IPL auction, stating that he had a busy winter and hence wanted to spend some time with his family in April and May. He was released by the Rising Pune Supergiant, ahead of the auctions. He played for the Quetta Gladiators in the second season of the Pakistan Super League. The heart of the matter...

The love for cricket in India is not restricted to a particular age group, which is why you will witness cricket fans of every age group thronging the stadiums during the IPL. Every franchise has a theme song; every team has a loyal fan-following that never fail in their show of love and support for their heroes. The IPL is the most successful project by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)....

In the ongoing edition, Jadeja’s role in the playing XI remains unclear to the outsiders. In the eight games, he played so far, only once has he completed his quota of four overs (against Delhi Daredevils). He did not get chance to bowl in two games. In total, he had bowled only 14 overs conceding 115 runs with just two wickets to his name. With the bat, he had scored 47 runs from 39 deliveries....

RCB chased down the lowest target of 88 IN 8.1 overs which has affected the net run rate immensely for the Kings XI and they have their work cut out to turn things around in their favor. What went wrong for the Kings XI Punjab in the second half of the tournament? Let’s have a look. #1 R Ashwin’s tactics When Ravi Ashwin was made the captain of the Kings XI, he was keen on being an unpredictable captain and hoped to do different things when his team takes the field....

With games coming in thick and fast, CSK need to make a decision, and quickly. On that note, here are five players who can replace the uncapped Chahar in the next few games for CSK: #1 David Willey David Willey remained unsold at the 2018 IPL auctions at his base price of 2 crores. However, he was roped in by CSK later on as a replacement for Kedar Jadhav. Willey has not yet gotten a game which is rather surprising considering CSK’s bowling woes....

The Delhi-born player has been instrumental in playing few innings that have defined him as a player who can go the distance for Indian cricket. In one of his recent exploits on the cricket field, Pant smashed his maiden T20 century against Sunrisers Hyderabad to record 128 runs from just 63 deliveries. We take a look at some of the records set by his innings against the Orange Army:...

Chennai’s win now sees them sitting comfortably at the top of the table with 12 points and they seem well on their way to making the playoffs once again. Shane Watson and MS Dhoni both struck magnificent half-centuries to move CSK one step closer to securing a playoff berth. The coaching staff will be particularly pleased with the way CSK won this match. Their brutal batting was supported by quality bowling, particularly from pacer Lungi Ngidi who was making his debut for CSK....

The fact that Punjab retained only Axar Patel before the auctions, means that Miller will be back in the auctions and this presents other teams with an opportunity to snap him up. Considering various permutations and combinations and looking at the retentions made, Sunrisers Hyderabad look the most likely team which could rope in Miller for the upcoming season. The fact that Miller is a middle order batsman who can not only control the innings but towards the end unleash his power works perfectly for Hyderabad who would ideally want an experienced man during the middle over....

In 2017 the creative mind behind Gantz, Hiroya Oku’s manga, Inuyashiki was adapted into an anime series as part of the Fall line up from that year. A tale of ethics, humanity, and the cost of responsibility, told through the perspective of an elderly man with nothing to live for. At only 58 years-old, Ichirou Inuyashiki is diagnosed with terminal cancer. He’s a good man with a good heart, but at home all he has is a materialistic family and only a stray dog to care for....

Madame Justice Janet M. Fuhrer scrapped a September ruling by the CHRC dismissing the case of Aaren Jagadeesh, requesting a new investigation by a fresh team of investigators. Jagadeesh claims that a manager at the CIBC, where he worked, told him during a private meeting in 2015 that unless he “joined their group” there would be “no hope” for his advancement in the company and he should “be smart and learn....
