LOL!!! Man Pranks Crowds At Times Square By Posing As A Fake Celebrity

"My whole life, I've always wondered what it would be like to be famous," Brett Cohen, Comedian and Internet radio host muses in a voiceover.
He posed as a celebrity and had fake paparazzi and a camera crew follow him around Times Square.

 
Cohen, center, in Times Square on July 27. Members of his crew created 'buzz' by telling the crowd that a big star was about to walk out of Rockefeller Center.
As Cohen and his crew walked around Times Square, dozens of star-struck bystanders asked to take photos with the baby-faced prankster.
One of Cohen's cohorts filmed interviews with a few of the star-struck "fans," who believed Cohen was either an action star or a pop singer.


Cohen with a group of ‘fans.’ In the video, one star-struck teen girl squealed, 'I love him!'

“Where do you know him from?” the interviewer asks two young 'fans'.
“Uh, was he Spiderman?” one of them says.
“Yea,” the interviewer replies.
“He’s a very good actor,” the young man says.
“So you liked him,” the interviewer asks.
“Yea, yea,” the duped fan says.
In another interview, a man who thinks Cohen is a singer says, "I heard his first single, which is good. I don't know the name of it, but I heard it on the radio."
Later, another one gushes, "I think he's excellent, I think he's absolutely awesome, I think he's got a great future in the movie business."
"I just took a picture with him, I feel special," he says.
The clip ends with Cohen, still in his celebrity getup but sans entourage, walking unnoticed to subway stop.

Lol!! That's the celeb power!! People are gushing and drooling without even knowing him!!

How We Killed Cynthia Osokogu...Suspects Narrate (Video Included)


Suspects covering their faces in shame
 
 

The  Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Umar Manko, gave the names of the suspects as Okwuoma Echezona Nwabufo, 33 and his maternal cousin Odera Ezekiel Ilechukwu, 23.
 
They were paraded by the police exactly one month after Miss Cynthia Udoka Osokogu was killed in a hotel room in Festac, Lagos. They were presented to journalists at the Command Headquarters, Ikeja.

While Okwuoma claims he is a 300 level Accounting student at the University of Lagos, Ezekiel also studies Accountancy at the Anambra State University.
 
According to Manko, Lagos Commissioner of Police, on July 22 this year:
- Cynthia Osokogu used her Blackberry phone to chat with Okwumo, who invited her to Lagos to spend time with him in his residence in Festac.
- Cynthia then came to Lagos, with Okwumo paying for her flight to Lagos.
- She was lodged in a hotel in Festac Town.
- It was gathered that the two suspects then connived to drug Cynthia with powdery tablets - Rohypnol grounded and injected into a Ribena drink, which she drank and became unconscious.
- The suspects then took turn to rape her more than 10 times.
- They then used a cellotape to tie her mouth and a chain to tie her legs.
-The suspects allegedly suffocated her to death when she regained consciousness and started struggling with them.
In their confession, the suspects blamed the devil for the crime:
Okwuoma, who said Cynthia was his friend, admitted that they drugged the deceased by injecting 10 Rohypnol tablets into three packets of Ribena drink they offered her.

The suspect claimed that he invited the deceased from Abuja to Lagos.

According to him, their mission was to rob her of her possessions, while the drug was to make her weak and lose memory of everything that transpired.

“Cynthia was my friend, we met through blackberry group chat and we had mutual understanding before she came to Lagos on Sunday, July 21.

“The deceased was coming to buy stocks for her boutique in Abuja, so I thought that maybe she would have enough money with her and we planned to collect her belongings,” Okwuoma said.

The suspect said the deceased was killed at Concilia hotel, not far from his residence at Sixth Avenue, Festac.

The suspect narrated how they tied Cynthia with celotape and chain, adding that when she struggled with them, he held her forcefully to make sure she did not shout.

“I invited her and in the process, we had disagreement so, I felt like robbing her of all she has".
 
One of the suspects, Eloka, said they killed Cynthia because they thought she had a lot of money in her possession. But after the horrific act, they did not find a reasonable amount of money on her.


When asked if he raped Cynthia and why there was condom in the hotel room, the suspect said he did not rape her, claiming the condom was used for something else.

“I used it on her based on the vibrator she had. She came with a vibrator and so I inserted the condom on it and later dropped it there. I did not sleep with her, if the police carryout a forensic test on it, they will see that I didn’t use it on her,” he said.

Okwuoma confessed that the deceased was the fifth person he has drugged and stated that other victims did not die.

“I have done it four times before her but none of the girls died. I sleep with them and after they take the drink, they will loss memory of everything that happened to them".

“I am not happy about what happened because I didn’t bargain to kill her. It is unfortunate and the work of the devil,” Okwuoma said.
 
Manko warned youths, especially ladies, to be wary of fraudsters who use social media to lure and commit crime.

Brazilian Construction Worker Survives As Iron Bar Pierces Skull


A 24 year old construction worker, Eduardo Leite survived after a 6-foot metal bar fell from above him and pierced his skull on Wednesday last week.

Luiz Essinger of Rio de Janeiro's Miguel Couto Hospital Friday told the Globo TV network that doctor's successfully withdrew the iron bar during a five-hour-long surgery.

"He was taken to the operating room, his skull was opened, they examined the brain and the surgeon decided to pull the metal bar out from the front in the same direction it entered the brain." Essinger said.

He said Leite was conscious when he arrived at the hospital and told him what had happened.

The bar fell from the fifth floor of a building under construction, went through Leite's hard hat, entered the back of his skull and exited between his eyes, Essinger said, adding: "It really was a miracle" that Leite survived.

He said Leite was lucid and showed no negative consequences after the operation.

Wild Man On A Shooting Spree Storms Popular Nigerian Night Spot In Brooklyn



A wild man on a shooting spree in Brooklyn, New York, struck a popular Nigerian night spot, 9Ja Villa, late Friday.
According to the shaken owner of 9Ja Villa, Carol Emerenini, the gunman kept on repeating “Gimme the money! Gimme all the money!”.

Emerenini, owner of the Mill Basin establishment, said security guards saw the culprit walk up to them, waving a gun in the air. Emerenini also said that the man then “pistol whipped” one of the bouncers and fled on East 51 St.

The gunman then stopped a livery cab and tried to pat the driver, Eric Martine, down for cash but the cabby threw a quick punch at the gunman who managed to fire a shot, hitting a passenger in the head. The passenger, Nikita Gerbelsky, 23, of Forest Hills, was declared brain dead at Kings County Hospital.

Shortly after the incident, police arrested a suspect - Michael Magnan, a 19 year old youth with previous arrests including drug and weapons possession, evidence tampering and bail jumping.

“This guy was drunk,” said gunman's father Frantz Magnan. “How could he do something like that?”

Magnan has been charged with attempted murder, assault, criminal possession of a weapon and criminal mischief on Sunday, officials said.
