A man who allegedly threatened elderly people with a chainsaw was shot and killed by police on Sunday morning. St. Charles police said they were called to an assisted living center in St. Charles, Illinois, at about 8:45 a.m. in response to a shirtless man using a chainsaw to try to cut down a tree. 'An unauthorized person briefly entered our community and was quickly stopped by responding officers.' Once they arrived, however, they were informed that the man had allegedly gone into the lobby of the center and was "confronting residents with the chainsaw." Police said they tried to de-escalate the situation but that the man kept threatening residents and also threatened police officers. They tried to use a Taser on him to no avail, and then one officer shot him. "An officer was then forced to fire his service weapon, striking the suspect," read a statement from police. Police said he was transported to Northwestern Medicine Delnor Hospital where he was later pronounced dead. Some of the residents were treated at the scene for minor injuries in addition to some police being treated. A statement from the River Glen of St. Charles assisted living center thanked police and said the center was cooperating with the investigation. "This morning, an unauthorized person briefly entered our community and was quickly stopped by responding officers. We are deeply grateful for the swift action of our team and law enforcement," the statement read. St. Charles is a suburb of Chicago of about 33,000 people. Video from the center can be viewed on a WBBM-TV news report on YouTube about the incident. Like Blaze News?

Image: Cath Virginia / The Verge, Getty Images Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s $56 billion pay package was struck down once again. In a ruling on Monday, Delaware Chancery Court Judge Kathaleen St. J. McCormick upheld her decision to block the compensation plan over concerns about conflicts of interest following its approval in 2018. After warning shareholders in June that Musk could leave the company if his pay package isn’t approved, Tesla held a vote in hopes of reversing the judge’s decision. Shareholders voted to approve the hefty compensation, but this still wasn’t enough to convince the judge to reinstate it. The decision states that Musk has “no procedural ground for flipping the outcome of an adverse posttrial decision based on evidence they created after trial.” It also calls claims...

Looks like an official Lenovo rendering of the Legion Go S. | Image: Windows Central Lenovo’s Legion Go handheld gaming PC cost $700 when it launched in the spring, and while you can get one for $484.99 right now, there have been rumors about a revised Legion Go S that starts at about $399. Windows Central has a hold of some seemingly genuine renderings of what the upcoming cheaper device will look like. A firmware leak last week for the “Legion Go S 8ARP1” indicated the cheaper machine will have AMD’s Rembrandt APU inside. While it’s based on a new Ryzen Z2 platform, Videocardz points out the chip will have Zen 3-plus cores that aren’t as powerful as the current generation Z1 Extreme with Zen 4 cores inside the current Legion Go. From the images, it looks like the Legion Go S will have RGB lights, two USB-C ports up... Continue reading…
