But instead of stopping his pickup truck, Isabel’s father accelerated and tried to crash through the barrier.

Isabel died instantly in a hail of gunfire and her father and friend, named only as 26-year-old Danae, were seriously wounded in the bloodbath on 23rd June.

The police believe the roadblock had been set up by the notoriously ultra-violent Jalisco New Generation Cartel.

The gang is one of several ruthless crime groups battling to control drugs and arms trafficking in the region.

‘Nothing I can do about it’ – Katie Taylor makes heartbreaking admission about her Croke Park dream

KATIE Taylor admits it is ‘a pity’ she has not fought at Croke Park.

The Bray Bomber will face rival Amanda Serrano in a trilogy bout — with the Irishwoman winning the previous two — on July 11 at Madison Square Garden.

Croker has not held a boxing fight since Muhammad Ali defeated Al Lewis in 1972

Many believed Taylor would have fought at GAA HQ but those plans never came to fruition.

Taylor — who fought at MSG against Serrano in their first bout back in 2022 — said: “I wouldn’t say I’m frustrated about it at this stage.

“I love Madison Square Garden. It’s obviously one of the most epic and iconic arenas out there.

“It would have been special to fight in Croke Park but there’s nothing I can do about that.”

A planned bout at GAA HQ was shelved in 2023 due to issues surrounding security costs.

Taylor has fought twice in Dublin, with both battles against Chantelle Cameron — a defeat and a victory for the home fighter — staged at the 3Arena.

Promoter Eddie Hearn suggested in January that a Jones’ Road joust could take place.

But Croke Park stadium director Peter McKenna claimed there had been no talks.

Taylor added: “Those things are out of my control. I don’t let those things frustrate me.

“I can’t let those things frustrate me. It’s a pity it hasn’t happened.

“But I’m very excited to be fighting at MSG again.”

Watch hilarious moment Halle Berry’s bikini bottoms fall OFF as star, 58, dances to boyfriend Van Hunt’s new song

HALLE Berry accidentally flashed her boyfriend while dancing to his music as her bikini bottoms fell clean off.

The 58-year-old Oscar winner was on holiday with Van Hunt in Switzerland when she decided to show off her moves in a white two-piece.

Wearing tie-side bikini bottoms, a white top and square shades, Halle looked carefree as she danced around their luxury suite to Van’s latest track.

As she got into the groove, disaster struck and her bikini slipped off.

Halle jumped out of the shot as Van, 58, could be heard laughing from behind the camera.

She shared the hilarious clip on Instagram with a well placed emoji covering her modesty.

The Catwoman star added the caption: “When your man’s music is so good you just can’t help yourself!”

She added: “Check out Van Hunt’s new EP A Heart Full Of Questions streaming on all platforms.”

The swimwear slip-up isn’t the only thing Berry’s been opening up about. Just a day earlier, she got candid on Jenna & Friends on the Today show – and dished out details on her love life.

The Catwoman actress revealed that Van has already proposed to her – wanting to make her “Mrs Halle Van Hunt.”

But the star, who’s walked down the aisle three times before, didn’t say yes just yet.

“So I put out the proposal, and it’s still on hold as you can see,” Van said, as Halle laughed.

“It’s just out there floating. You know, maybe you can encourage her.”

Explaining her hesitation, Halle admitted it comes down to her history with marriage.

“Well, I’ve been married three times,” she said. 

“Van has been married once, and so no, we don’t feel like we have to get married to validate our love in any way. We don’t.”

Still, she hinted a wedding could happen but only on their terms.

“But I think we will get married just because, out of the people I’ve been married to, this is the person I should have married,” she added.

“And I feel like I should, we should get married, but it’s not because we feel like we have to. I think it’s something that we would like to do just because we want that expression.”

Halle said friends have been rooting for them.

“I think everybody’s been really happy, at least for me personally, people have been like, ‘You finally found…!’ I’ve always wanted what we have,” she said.

“I always saw myself in a committed, loving relationship with like my best friend, someone that I respect and I love.”

Halle shares daughter Nahla, 17, with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry, and son Maceo, 11, with ex-husband Olivier Martinez, to whom she was married from 2013 to 2016.

She was also previously married to baseball star David Justice from 1993 to 1997 and singer Eric Benét from 2001 to 2005.

Rock icon, 73, looks worlds away from 70s superstardom as he grabs coffee in LA

A ROCK icon looked worlds away from his 1970s heyday as he stepped out in Los Angeles.

The popular performer left fans stunned as he went for a coffee in a rare public outing.

Aged 73, the rocker was part of a hugely popular band that had a string of popular albums among rock music fans – but do you recognise him?

Paul Stanley co-founded the band Kiss with Gene Simmons in the 70s with the group becoming known for their raucous and outlandish antics on the stage.

The performer kept it casual for his low-key outing as he was spotted without his trademark Kiss make-up that the band became well known for.

He opted for a simple patterned shirt and a pair of light blue denim jeans as he made his way to Starbucks for his regular coffee order.

Paul flashed a smile as he made his way back to his car carrying his drinks.

You’d be forgiven for not recognising Paul thanks to the star usually sporting heavy theatrical make-up for Kiss.

The star and his bandmates previously explained how in the early 70s New York, the glam rock trend was prevalent with many male rock stars choosing to wear make-up to mirror their female counterparts.

However, Kiss decided to create their own unique looks after confessing it was “unconvincing” that they could don regular make-up.

Speaking of their unique look, Paul’s bandmate Gene Simmons recalled: “At the same time that we were forming in New York, there was a very big glitter scene, where boys were basically acting like girls and putting on makeup.

“Well, we were more like football players — all of us were over 6 feet tall — and it just wasn’t convincing!”

Paul is a father-of-four and shares three children with his wife Erin Sutton.

Paul and Erin wed in 2005 and shared children Sarah, 15, Colin, 18, and Emily, 13, with her.

He also has a son, 30-year-old Evan Stanley, from his failed marriage to first wife, actress Pamela Bowen.

Pamela divorced him in 2001 after nine years of marriage.

Paul Stanley's career

AS well as his time in KISS, Paul has enjoyed some ventures away from the band.

Over the course of his career, he has released two solo albums.

His first was a self-titled record in 1978 whilst still a member of the rock band and marketed under the look he became famous for in the group.

It wasn’t until 2006 that he went on to release a second solo record.

In 1999, he became a stage performer for the first time when he began appearing in a production of The Phantom of the Opera throughout 1999 in which he closed the show’s ten-year run in Toronto, Canada.

In 2012, he and bandmate Gene headed into business when, along with the help of three investors, they launched the restaurant chain, Rock & Brews.

Paul published his autobiography, Face the Music: A Life exposed, in 2014.

‘Getting destroyed’ – UFC 317 fans all say same thing as Ilia Topuria shows off ferocious power ahead of Oliveira fight

An image collage containing 1 images, Image 1 shows Boxer sparring in boxing gloves

UFC fans all said the same thing after getting a glimpse of Ilia Topuria’s latest training footage.

The Georgian-born Spaniard is just days away from throwing down with Charles Oliveira for the vacant lightweight title at UFC 317 in Las Vegas.

Topuria, 28, will bid to become the tenth fighter in the history of MMA’s top promotion to win titles in two divisions.

And ‘El Matador’ looks to be in razor-sharp form ahead of Sunday morning’s Sin City showdown.

Footage of Topuria’s recent open workout started doing the rounds on social last weekend.

And scores of MMA fans couldn’t help but voice their concerns for former 155lbs champ Oliveira after seeing Topuria obliterate the pads.

One wrote on X: “Ilia Topuria hits like a f***ing truck.”

Another said: “Charles is getting destroyed, bro.”

And another said: “If that livershot hits, Charles is gonna p**s blood for one week.”

One remarked: “Poor Charles. Two rounds maximum.

Another chimed in: “I dont think I’ve ever seen such power in such a small frame.

“What most people dont realise is how good this guy is at energy management.

“He has perfect control of his gas tank which is where many fighters fail.

“I’m def punting a dollar or two for this guy to win it! What a specimen.”

Topuria vacated the featherweight title, which he won and defended against Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway respectively, earlier this year to pursue lightweight gold.

And he plans to become a two-weight champion in devastating fashion.

He said: “Charles is a great fighter.

“I’d say he’s a legendary fighter, one of the few still active in the UFC.

“But the truth is that his style fits perfectly with mine to put him to sleep in the first round.

“Because he has no mobility, he doesn’t move.”

Reason why there is no Glastonbury Festival in 2026 revealed

GLASTONBURY is in full swing and festival-goers will want to make the most of this year.

The iconic festival announced it will not be going ahead in 2026, and here’s why.

GLASTONBURY, ENGLAND - JUNE 30: People gather in front of the main Pyramid Stage during day five of Glastonbury Festival 2024 at Worthy Farm, Pilton on June 30, 2024 in Glastonbury, England. Founded by Michael Eavis in 1970, Glastonbury Festival features around 3,000 performances across over 80 stages. Renowned for its vibrant atmosphere and iconic Pyramid Stage, the festival offers a diverse lineup of music and arts, embodying a spirit of community, creativity, and environmental consciousness.

Organisers revealed they will be taking a break next year as the festival takes a fallow year.

This is a planned respite where the event does not take place, allowing the farmland to recover.

In turn, this will allow the natural environment at Worthy Farm to regenerate.

Glastonbury takes a hiatus every five years to avoid causing irreparable damage to the working pastures.

“The fallow year is important because it gives the land a rest, it gives the cows a chance to be out for longer and reclaim their land,” co-organiser Emily Eavis told the BBC.

Fallow year

Fallow years are common in agricultural practices, where farmers leave land unplanted to improve soil quality.

This allows the land time to replenish its nutrients, improving it for cattle grazing.

While the festival’s last official fallow year took place in 2018, organisers had to cancel two consecutive years in 2020 and 2021 due to the Covid pandemic.

Co-organisers explained that Glastonbury was once again “due a fallow year”.

“Sustainability and the need to live in harmony with the land has always been vital to Glastonbury Festival,” Emily said.

“And I think it’s important because it just gives everybody a little time to just switch off”.

The fallow year also offers a break for the local community in the village of Pilton.

Environmental concerns

To further limit harm to the local environment, organisers have implemented a series of initiatives to reduce any waste left on-site.

A “love the farm, leave no trace” pledge has been introduced, which festival-goers are asked to sign up to when purchasing a festival ticket.

As well as this, single-use plastic plates, cups, mugs, and cutlery have also been banned on site.

Glastonbury 2025 - confirmed acts so far

TICKETS to the 2025 festival sold out in just minutes before some of the acts were even confirmed. Here is who has been confirmed so far.

Confirmed headliners:

  • The 1975 will take to the Pyramid Stage on Friday.
  • Neil Young will headline the festival for the second time after his last set in 2009 on Saturday after RAYE makes her return.
  • Charli xcx will headline the Other Stage on Saturday night.
  • On Sunday, Olivia Rodrigo is due to belt out her hits for her first appearance while Rod Stewart will perform in the legends slot.
  • More acts to appear on the Other Stage include Loyle Carner and The Prodigy.
  • Doechii will make her Glastonbury debut on the West Holts Stage on Saturday night.
  • Other names confirmed include Noah Kahan, Alanis Morissette, Gracie Abrams, Busta Rhymes, Lola Young, Brandi Carlile, Myles Smith, En Vogue, Amaarae, Cymande, Shaboozey, Osees and Gary Numan.

Other prohibited items include glass bottles, flares, and Chinese lanterns.

“We are striving to leave as little an imprint on the land here as we possibly can,” said co-organiser Michael Eavis.

“For me, Worthy Farm is what life here is all about.”

Glastonbury 2025

Festival-goers have shared the “shocking” price they’ve forked over for pints at Glastonbury.

And a huge name has hinted at a surprise appearance on the festival’s main stage.

Meanwhile, Noel Gallagher has responded to Glastonbury rumours ahead of the highly-anticipated Oasis reunion.

Plus, a breakdown on how much each Glastonbury act is said to be worth.
