Former UFC champ stops hit-and-run suspect who crashed into neighbor's home: 'He wasn't that tough'

A UFC fighter played hero in his Phoenix neighborhood late Friday night by apprehending the driver of a vehicle that crashed into a neighbor’s home.
Henry Cejudo said he saw a car “probably going 80 to 100 miles an hour” and heard a loud boom. He then saw the car had crashed into his neighbor’s home.
After hearing the crash, Cejudo saw the driver leave the car after a bit of a struggle and tried to get him to stop.

The owner of the home did the same. But when the driver “cold-cocked” the neighbor, “that’s when I had to step in,” Cejudo told MMA Junkie.
From there, it was easy for the former flyweight and bantamweight champion and his neighborhood wrecking crew.
“Pretty much all my neighbors came in to fight the situation. I ended up lifting him, dropping him, slapped him around a little bit and just pretty much controlled him,” he said.
“He wasn’t that tough.”

The driver, a 22-year-old man, now faces charges of driving under the influence and assault, according to ABC15 in Arizona.
Cejudo said the situation could have been much worse.
“If someone was standing in there, they would be dead. All these kids are lucky to be alive,” Cejudo said.
Cejudo said a block party was held on the street earlier in the day.

“If it was a couple hours earlier, someone would be seriously injured,” Cejudo said.

Historic Grand Canyon Lodge destroyed in wildfire, which closes North Rim for season

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A wildfire tore through the Grand Canyon’s North Rim on Sunday, destroying the historic Grand Canyon Lodge and dozens of other structures, and forcing officials to close the area for the season.
Flames from the Dragon Bravo Fire engulfed the lodge, visitor center, gas station, wastewater treatment plant, administrative offices, and employee housing, according to park Superintendent Ed Keable. The National Park Service (NPS) estimates between 50 and 80 structures were lost.
No injuries were reported. All staff and residents cleared the area before the fire advanced, NPS said.
Lightning sparked the Dragon Bravo Fire on July 4. Authorities initially managed the fire with a “confine and contain” strategy. A week later, amid scorching heat, low humidity, and high winds, officials shifted to full suppression as the growing blaze scorched 7.8 square miles.

The Grand Canyon Lodge, the only lodging on the North Rim, was a landmark known for its sloped roof, massive ponderosa beams, and limestone facade — the first sight for many visitors approaching the canyon.
Aramark, the company that operated the lodge, said all employees and guests were safely evacuated.
“As stewards of some of our country’s most beloved national treasures, we are devastated by the loss,” said spokesperson Debbie Albert.

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs called on the federal government late Sunday to investigate the NPS’s response to the wildfire and deliver a report “detailing the decisions that led to this devastating outcome.”
“They must first take aggressive action to end the wildfire and prevent further damage,” she said in a post on X. “But Arizonans deserve answers for how this fire was allowed to decimate the Grand Canyon National Park.”

Meanwhile, firefighters made progress on a second blaze north of the canyon. Containment lines held on the White Sage Fire, which had forced evacuations at the North Rim and the community of Jacob Lake. By Sunday afternoon, it had burned 63 square miles.

Manhunt for ICE facility attack suspect reaches 10 days with reward money on the line

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A military veteran wanted in connection with an attack on an ICE detention facility in Texas remained on the run Monday, as the FBI’s manhunt stretched into its 10th day.
Benjamin Hanil Song, 32, of Dallas, was named as a suspect on Thursday, almost a week after he allegedly joined a group of 10 to 12 others in an organized attack on officers at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, on July 4. Ten assailants were apprehended at the time, though Song managed to evade capture, authorities said.
“We believe he is somewhere in the Dallas-Fort Worth area but have expanded our publicity efforts to neighboring states just in case,” the FBI Dallas Field Office told Fox News Digital on Monday.
The FBI noted that it is still offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to Song’s arrest and conviction. The bureau previously said Song should be considered armed and dangerous.

Song, a former U.S. Marine Corps reservist, is accused of firing two AR-15-style rifles at two correctional officers and one Alvarado police officer, according to a criminal complaint obtained by Fox News Digital last week.

The Alvarado police officer was shot in the neck by a suspect in the woods, according to the complaint. Another assailant fired dozens of rounds at unarmed correctional officers who had stepped outside the facility.

The FBI is offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to Song’s arrest and conviction.
Song faces three counts of attempted murder of a federal officer and three counts of discharging a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence.
