 Texas man arrested with 75 pounds of marijuana in luggage while flying to London, police say A Texas man was arrested at Miami International Airport after authorities found 75 pounds of marijuana in his luggage before he could board a flight to London. Harrison O’Neill Tiernan, 23, from Austin, was charged with cannabis trafficking. He was traveling to Heathrow Airport and had checked two suitcases for his British Airways flight. Inspectors discovered 65 vacuum-sealed packages containing a green, leafy substance later confirmed to be marijuana. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers stopped Tiernan while he attempted to board the flight, and he acknowledged that the bags were his.

VATICAN OFFICIALS SAID TODAY THAT POPE FRANCIS WAS RESTING PEACEFULLY AFTER SUFFERING A BREATHING CRISIS FRIDAY. (PHOTO).

 


Vatican officials said Saturday Pope Francis was resting peacefully after suffering a breathing crisis Friday.


“The pope spent a peaceful night and is resting,” the Vatican said in a statement.


Francis had a setback Friday during his stay at Rome’s Gemelli Hospital, where he has been for the last two weeks.


The Vatican said an “isolated breathing incident” caused the 88-year-old pontiff to inhale his vomit, which required noninvasive mechanical ventilation.

'Our heart is on 10th floor of Gemelli' - hospital staff march to Vatican for Pope

Braving the rain, healthcare workers from Gemelli Hospital, where Pope Francis is undergoing treatment for double pneumonia, made a pilgrimage to St. Peter's Basilica on Saturday (March 1).

 

Hundreds of hospital staff holding umbrellas walked down the Via della Conciliazione, a road leading up to St Peter's Basilica at the Vatican, praying for Pope Francis.

 

The pilgrimage was part of the Jubilee Audience with the pope, which was cancelled after he had been in hospital for just over two weeks fighting double pneumonia.

 

On Saturday morning the Vatican said the pope had a peaceful night and had been resting after a health setback the day before.

 

The 88-year-old pontiff experienced a breathing crisis on Friday (February 28), renewing concerns over his well-being.

 

A Vatican official, who did not wish to be named because he was not authorized to discuss the pope's health, said Francis had not had another respiratory crisis since then.

 

In a one-line statement, the Vatican said the night had passed peacefully. The official said the pope had breakfast, including a cup of coffee. The next detailed medical bulletin is expected at around 7 p.m. (1800 GMT).
