A teenager has been arrested after a gun was brought into a school in Wolverhampton.

Police were called to reports that a firearm had been brought into a school on Holland Road, Bilston, on Monday shortly after 11.10am.

The gun, seized by officers, is being “assessed”.

A 15-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of possession of a firearm, and remains in custody, police said.

A West Midlands Police spokesperson said: “Our enquiries are continuing, and we would like to reassure the community that no students or staff were threatened with the weapon and we do not believe there to be any wider risk to the public.”

EXCLUSIVE: California mother and grandmother Angie Morfin, whose 13-year-old son, Ruben, was executed at point-blank range by an illegal alien gang member, shared a message for incoming Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin: “Make sure no other mother has to get the call I did.”

“Ruben was just a little boy with dreams of growing up, getting married, and having a family of his own,” she told Fox News Digital, adding, “For 34 years I’ve fought to keep his memory alive, so he didn’t die in vain.”

She shared that she is hopeful that Mullin, a current Republican senator from Oklahoma who is set to take the reins at DHS at the end of the month, “will continue to listen to Angel Families and stand with us as we fight to make sure no other mother has to get the call I did.”

In a recent interview with The American Border Story shared exclusively with Fox News Digital, Morfin said her family remains devastated decades after losing Ruben.

“I cry for him today, like if it was just yesterday,” she shared.

In the winter of 1994, Ruben, a young Hispanic teenager with no gang affiliation, was chased down and shot in the back of the head by Mexican national Ezequiel Mariscal near Orange County, California. Ruben had been walking with a group of friends to a party.  

Morfin said that though her family was living in Oceanside, just north of San Diego, at the time, she had sent Ruben to stay with his grandparents during the holidays over concerns about gangs in their area.

Then one night, just after midnight, Morfin said she got a call.

“I grabbed the phone, and I could hear my mom screaming, ‘They shot Nino, they shot Nino.’ I knew it was my baby because that’s what we called him, because he was so small,” she said.

Morfin said she and her husband rushed to the hospital.

“It was probably the longest ride of my life. I was scared. I didn’t know what I was going to see when I got there,” she explained.

Once there, she was made to wait.

“They told me he was dying. That if he made it through the night, that he would be a vegetable for the rest of his life because they had just shot off half of his brain,” she recounted.

“Finally, my husband got to go in, and he came out crying, and told me not to go in. Just to remember him the way he was, and I go, ‘No, this was my baby you’re talking about. I have to see for myself.’”

Inside the room where Ruben was being kept on life support, Morfin said her son was bandaged and greatly disfigured.

“I could see my baby on that table. His body was shaking from all the machines he had on. He had bandages on his head, and his eye was hanging out,” she recalled. “I asked if I could give him one last kiss before they cut [life support]. And I walked close to my baby, and I gave him his last kiss. In his good eye, he had two teardrops.”

“All I kept trying to do in my mind was stop the bullet,” she added.

According to Morfin, the shooter had been previously deported. He was a teenager at the time of the shooting and a member of the Posole street gang. After the shooting, he fled to Mexico and was later sentenced to 45 years in a Mexican state prison.

After losing Ruben, Morfin said, “Everything changed about me, everything.”

Morfin founded Moms Against Gang Violence, a California-based advocacy group for stricter law enforcement. She has also testified before Congress on the need for stricter immigration enforcement. She explained that her advocacy on behalf of victims like Ruben is “my way of keeping him alive.”

She praised President Donald Trump’s hardline policy against illegal immigration, saying “it takes guts to do what he’s doing.”

“He helped me give my son a voice,” she said.

“There’s a lot of new victims,” she went on, slamming current Democrats, saying they “only have one agenda … to bring in more Democrats.”

Nicole Kiprilov, executive director of The American Border Story, told Fox News Digital that the Morfins’ story is a “heartbreaking reminder that behind every statistic is a child whose life was stolen and a family forced to live with that loss forever.”

“Angel Families like Angie’s have spent decades fighting to make sure their loved ones are not forgotten,” said Kiprilov. “We’re hopeful that Secretary Mullin will continue listening to these families and put the safety of American communities first.”

Tension is increasing between Pakistan and Afghanistan amid the war raging between America, Israel and Iran in the Middle East. On Monday (16 March), Pakistan once again carried out a major military action on Afghanistan. Taliban spokesperson has issued a statement giving this information. Pakistani Air Force has carried out a major attack in Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan. According to the information, 5 big explosions took place in the capital Kabul.

Hospital was targeted

Tolo News quoting information received from sources told that the Government of Pakistan has targeted the de-addiction hospital located in Pul-e-Charkhi area of ​​Kabul. However, according to the information, some important government buildings of Afghanistan have also become the target of bombing by Pakistani Air Force.

Taliban regime spokesperson gave information

Taliban regime spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid has written on social media platform According to him, a large number of civilians have been martyred and injured in this incident, most of whom were drug addicts undergoing treatment. Mujahid further said, ‘We strongly condemn this action of Pakistan and consider such action as a crime against humanity.’

Earlier on March 15, Pakistan had launched strong attacks on military facilities and bases located in the southern part of Afghanistan. According to news agency AFP, the Pakistani Army targeted Afghanistan’s technical support infrastructure and equipment storage facility in Kandahar. Local people had seen military planes flying over the city late at night and had also heard several explosions.

China said- find solution through talks

On Monday, amid the ongoing conflict between Pakistan and Afghanistan, China has called on both the countries to end the conflict and talk. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said in a press conference on a question related to Beijing’s mediation efforts that China hopes both sides will exercise restraint, reach a ceasefire soon and resolve their differences through dialogue.

Former Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh and Leader of Opposition Jairam Thakur has made a scathing attack on the government of Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu, which claims to ‘change the system’. He has alleged that even after three years of the government, the announcements of the first budget have not materialized. Jai Ram Thakur has demanded that the Chief Minister should answer the public on the incomplete announcements of the last three years before presenting his fourth budget.

The Leader of Opposition said that just as Congress came to power by giving false guarantees, in the same way it is now making false announcements in the budget within the Assembly. While giving advice to the Chief Minister, he said that there is a difference between the speeches at the election rally and the announcements made inside the Assembly. It is the responsibility of the government to complete the schemes provided in the budget, but dozens of announcements of the current government are still gathering dust only on paper.

These major announcements are buried in papers

Referring to several incomplete schemes of the Sukhu government, Jairam Thakur said that there is no mention of the announcement of giving subsidy of ₹ 25,000 for electric scooters to 20,000 meritorious girl students. The government, which talked about building 6 green corridors, has instead imposed an ‘environment cess’ of ₹ 6 per unit on electric charging. The talk of opening ‘Adarsh ​​Health Institute’ in every assembly proved to be a pipe dream. The announcement of installation of PET scan machines in Chamba, Nahan and Hamirpur has also been buried in the files. All the announcements related to employment of farmers, gardeners, sportspersons, women, tribal areas and youth are also limited to papers only.

Where did the budget of Rs 2.2 lakh crore and loan of Rs 45 thousand crore go?

The former Chief Minister raised serious questions on the financial management of the government. Presenting the figures, he said that the Sukhu government presented a budget of: Rs 63,712 crore in the first year, Rs 75,496 crore in the second year, Rs 58,343 crore in the third year.

A total budget of about Rs 2.2 lakh crore was presented in three years and in addition a loan of more than Rs 45,000 crore was also taken. Jairam Thakur asked that despite taking such a huge budget and loan, when the schemes were not started, then where did that money from the budget go? He said that this raises big questions on the intentions and functioning of the government.

FIRST ON FOX: A key conservative group is accusing Democrat-run states of launching frivolous lawsuits against the Trump administration with no actual cause, and is calling on Congress to intervene.

America First Legal, a nonprofit founded by Trump adviser Stephen Miller, is urging House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to open a probe into “lawfare” conducted by blue states that it says is part of a larger effort to block President Donald Trump’s goals.

“America First Legal Foundation (‘AFL’) has uncovered a nationwide pattern to subvert the agenda of the Trump administration: Democrat-controlled states have filed lawsuits against the Trump administration, yet in many cases, the states are unable to show any support for their alleged injuries,” the group’s legal counsel Will Scolinos wrote.

There are over 200 active cases challenging various Trump administration policies right now, according to Lawfare Media’s litigation tracker. Dozens of those have been launched by states like California, Colorado, Minnesota, and New York.

Solinos said AFL launched a probe into various blue states’ lawsuits — which allegedly found many of them have been filed without concrete evidence to back up the claims they make.

“AFL’s investigation reveals that these Democrat-controlled states are pleading allegations of harm for which there is no corresponding evidence to support their claims,” the letter said.

“The fundamental problem is not merely that courts are failing to rigorously enforce standing requirements, but that state attorneys general are filing complaints premised on speculative injuries that their own client agencies cannot substantiate.”

TRUMP ADMIN SEEKS TO OVERTURN FEDERAL RESTRAINING ORDER LIMITING ICE OPERATIONS IN LOS ANGELES

The letter said it “raises serious questions about whether these lawsuits are being filed in good faith or are instead designed to obstruct the lawful policies of the Trump Administration through judicial intervention.”

Four states that sued the Trump administration over its transgender policies, for example, said “they lacked records” necessary to respond to AFL’s inquiries over the basis of those lawsuits, the letter said.

Five of 20 states that joined a lawsuit over the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) getting access to federal Medicaid data to probe whether illegal immigrants were getting health benefits similarly told AFL that it could not provide records it requested, the letter said.

“Such conduct not only undermines the integrity of the federal court system but also abuses the judicial process to obstruct the lawful policies of the Trump Administration—policies that the American people voted for,” AFL said.

“Given the Committee’s jurisdiction over Title 28 and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, we request that you investigate this pattern of conduct and consider whether legislative action is warranted.”

A spokesperson for the House Judiciary Committee told Fox News Digital when reached for comment, “We appreciate this tremendous work from America First Legal. We are evaluating the report and everything is on the table.”

The Iran war is having a deep and serious impact on the future of Dubai. Dubai’s economy depends primarily on tourism, air travel, real estate, banking and international investment, not on oil. In just the third week of the war, Dubai’s image as a safe and luxury hub has been damaged, which may continue for a long time. 95 percent of Dubai’s economy is based on oil.

Dubai’s tourism industry damaged by war

Dubai’s tourism industry earns about 30 billion dollars annually, but due to the war it is suffering huge losses, earlier it was estimated that it would benefit but due to the war, now there is a possibility of loss instead of growth. Dubai International Airport is one of the busiest airports in the world but its condition is deteriorating due to Iranian drone attacks. Hotels were also affected, where incidents of fire occurred.

A large number of people used to come to Dubai during Ramadan, but tourists are now considering Dubai unsafe. America, Britain, Canada and Australia have issued warnings against non-essential travel. If the war continues for 1-2 more months, Dubai will suffer huge losses. Due to the tarnishing of Dubai’s safe haven image, tourism recovery may take several years and travelers may shift to Europe or Asia.

impact on economy

Dubai’s business model is based on stability. Low taxes, world class infrastructure and in the middle of the world. It is easy to reach any part of the world from here, that is why in recent years many foreign companies have opened their offices and headquarters in Dubai, but attacks due to war have scared people. Many companies have vacated their offices. Companies like Citigroup, PwC and Deloitte have vacated their offices. Foreign investors are fleeing, and businesses are at a standstill.

Logistics-trade affected

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz is affecting Dubai’s logistics and trade, increasing insurance costs and disrupting supply chains. Aviation and other sectors are becoming expensive due to rising fuel prices. Dubai’s status as an investment hub may weaken, and investors may turn to Asia or Europe. If the war continues for 10-20 more days, tourism, aviation and expat business will be seriously affected.

Dubai’s security in danger

If the war spreads regionally, Dubai’s security could be at risk, and its impact will be long-lasting. Experts believe that if the war ends soon, recovery is possible, but if it continues for a long time, Dubai’s status as a global hub may change.

Leader of Opposition in Rajasthan Assembly Tikaram Julie has raised questions about the financial condition of the state on Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma’s recent visit to Delhi and meeting with the Union Finance Minister. Julie said that the Chief Minister should have asked for an account of the rights and entitlements of Rajasthan instead of a courtesy call in Delhi.

Citing figures, he said that the economic health of the state is far from the ‘uttarsha’ of the advertisement and in reality the state is moving towards financial crisis. The Leader of Opposition asked whether the Chief Minister had sought answers from the Union Finance Minister on the huge cuts made in Rajasthan’s share.

Huge cut of more than Rs 8,000 crore in the amount received from the Centre.

Clarifying the financial figures, Julie said that the financial rights of Rajasthan are being continuously attacked by the Central Government. Where there was an estimate of Rs 15,000 crore under the SASCI scheme. Only Rs 9,500 crore was found there, which is a direct cut of 37%. Similarly, under Central Taxes (Devolution) only Rs 83,940 crore was received against the target of Rs 85,716 crore. Even in Grant-in-Aid, only Rs 37,910 crore was received against the expectation of Rs 39,193 crore.

He asked where the state’s share of more than Rs 8,000 crore had gone and why the Chief Minister was silent on this. Rajasthan’s share under the 15th Finance Commission is continuously declining and according to the data of Budget 2025-26, there has been a decrease of about Rs 1,776 crore in the amount received from central taxes.

Rajasthan getting trapped in debt trap – Leader of Opposition

The Leader of Opposition exposed the government’s claims of good governance and said that the BJP government, which keeps harping on ‘2 years versus 5 years’, has broken all records in terms of taking loans. Presenting comparative figures, he said that the Congress government had taken a loan of Rs 2.26 lakh crore in its entire 5-year tenure. At the same time, the present BJP government is going to take a loan of Rs 2.22 lakh crore in just 3 years. With what morality does a government that belches out a loan of 5 years in just 3 years talk about financial management? The reality is that the size of the state’s economy (GSDP) has shrunk by Rs 1.13 lakh crore (about 6%), which is a worrying sign for the future of the state.

The general public is yearning for basic facilities – Julie

Tikaram Julie said that on one hand the government is busy juggling with figures, while on the other hand the general public is yearning for basic facilities. There is a huge shortage of LPG in the state, proof of which was seen in the meeting of the Chief Minister himself at Beneshwar Dham. Where food was cooked on wood stoves instead of gas. When LPG is not available in the Chief Minister’s meetings, it can be easily imagined what will be the condition of the common man and small traders. He directly asked the Chief Minister whether he has brought any concrete promise from Delhi to compensate for these losses or has returned only after trapping Rajasthan in the quagmire of debt.
