53-Year Reunion For Baby Westgate

Two Ohio women who discovered a newborn baby in a shopping cart in a Cleveland-area parking lot in 1972 have finally reunited with her more than five decades later.

The infant, left in a paper bag and only hours old, was discovered by two friends leaving a movie theater at Westgate Shopping Center. They called the police and stayed with the baby until she was taken to Fairview Hospital and later adopted by a Cleveland family, where she went on to have a happy childhood.

The baby, dubbed Baby Westgate after the shopping center where she was found, grew up to become Pearl Marshall, who began searching for her origins after Ohio opened previously sealed adoption records.

With help from a local historical researcher who tracked down old news reports, Pearl was able to locate the two women who found her, leading to an emotional reunion more than 50 years after the night that changed all their lives. Watch a video report.

Echavarria Wins, Dog Deal Done

Colombian golfer Nico Echavarria says a long-promised dog is finally on the way after his latest PGA Tour victory. Nico shot 17-under to win the Cognizant Classic in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, last week, finishing two strokes ahead of Taylor Moore and Shane Lowry.

The win is his third PGA Tour title and earns him $1.728 million along with another invite to the Masters. It also fulfills a promise to his wife, Claudia.

"The promise is we're getting a dog because a dog is expensive, so we need a third win for a dog, that's how it works," Nico joked, saying the couple plans to bring home a Bernedoodle. Watch a video here.

Thrift Store Camera Reveals 1950s Ski Trip

A man browsing a thrift shop in England paid $13 for a 1930s Zeiss Ikon camera, only to discover a roll of undeveloped film still tucked inside.

The fragile 127 film was carefully developed, revealing well-preserved images from what appears to be a late-1950s ski trip in St. Moritz, Switzerland. See the photos here.

The black-and-white photos show skiers posing on the slopes and outside landmarks such as Badrutt's Palace Hotel.

Despite media attention and social media buzz, no one has identified the people in the pictures. The shop is still hoping someone recognizes a familiar face from a long-ago winter getaway.

Demonstrators Clash Over Middle East

Protesters and counter-protesters clashed outside the Arizona State Capitol on Saturday over the U.S. military action in Iran.

The confrontation included shouting matches and some people waving flags while others dragged them on the ground.

Some participants briefly shook hands before tensions flared again.

The demonstrations followed rallies held last weekend.

$7.2M in School Vouchers Spent on LEGOs

Arizona families participating in the state's school voucher program have spent more than $7.2 million on LEGO sets since 2022, when the program expanded to all students.

Receipts obtained by 12News, which sued the state for access, showed 22 families spent at least $10,000 each on LEGO sets, including one family that spent nearly $30,000.

An education department spokesperson said LEGO sets are an allowed educational expense under the program, which serves more than 100,000 students and costs over $1 billion annually.

State school Superintendent Tom Horne declined an interview about the findings. In 2023, Horne issued a statement that seemed to indicate LEGO purchases were being limited to under $500.

Blaney Ends Reddick Streak

Ryan Blaney won the Straight Talk Wireless 500 at Phoenix Raceway on Sunday, passing Ty Gibbs after a late-race restart to secure his first victory of the NASCAR Cup Series season.

Blaney's win—his second straight at the track—denied Tyler Reddick a historic fourth straight victory to start the NASCAR season. See the full results.

The NASCAR Cup Series race capped a busy weekend at the one-mile Avondale oval.

On Saturday, Justin Allgaier won the GOVX 200, leading the final 11 laps to claim his third win in Phoenix and the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series points lead.

The AI Investment Hiding Under the Chip Boom
