 A Mother's Day Nightmare in Princeton, Illinois. A 3-year-old boy was struck by gunfire as police burst into a barricaded room, ending a frightening hostage situation. Multiple agencies responded to the Hummingbird Mobile Home Park in Princeton, Illinois, on Sunday, May 10th at 2:42 a.m. The initial call went out as a domestic disturbance but officers discovered much worse.  42-year-old, Anthony Rodriguez, had barricaded himself in a room armed with a knife. Anthony had taken several people as hostages, including Aurora Almanza and her 3-year-old son.  Multiple agencies were on the scene, including the Bureau County Sheriff's Office, Illinois State Police and  the Princeton Police Department.  Authorities attempted to negotiate but ultimately rushed the room when they heard screaming coming from inside.  Officials have reported that officers fired shots as they entered the room.

 Trump Tells UK to “Get Your Own Oil” as Hormuz Crisis Deepens


Donald Trump has sharply distanced himself from the growing Middle East energy crisis, telling Britain and other allies to secure their own fuel supplies as disruption in the Strait of Hormuz continues to rattle global markets.


In a strongly worded Truth Social post on Tuesday, the U.S. president singled out the United Kingdom, accusing it of refusing to back recent military action against Iran and suggesting it now deal with the fallout itself.


“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, I have a suggestion for you,” Trump wrote. “Number one, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and number two, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT.”


He went further, adding that countries affected by the blockade would need to “start learning how to fight for yourself,” while insisting the United States would no longer step in on their behalf. Trump also claimed Iran had been “essentially decimated” and said, “The hard part is done. Go get your own oil.”


The comments come as Britain faces mounting concerns over fuel supplies. Reports indicate that one of the last known shipments of jet fuel from the Middle East is expected to arrive within the next 48 hours, with no confirmed tankers currently known to have passed through the blocked Strait of Hormuz en route to the UK.


The closure of the strategic waterway has already sent shockwaves through energy markets, with oil prices surging and fuel costs rising across Europe. Brent crude reportedly jumped above $117 a barrel following Trump’s latest remarks, adding further pressure on household energy bills and transport costs.


Prime Minister Keir Starmer is understood to be holding another emergency Cobra meeting as the government weighs the economic impact of the crisis, including the knock-on effect on fuel, food and utility prices.


U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth later echoed Trump’s stance, urging allied nations to take a more active role in reopening the Strait of Hormuz and restoring the flow of oil shipments.


With fuel prices already hitting their highest levels since 2022, the standoff is beginning to be felt far beyond the Middle East, with consumers across Europe bracing for more expensive transport and energy bills in the weeks ahead.
