Yellow Hammer News was the first to report on the man’s miraculous survival and revealed details on how the man ended up inside the garbage truck: An Alabama man survived after being compressed inside a garbage truck — twice. Emergency responders were called around 5:30 a.m. to a report of a person inside a garbage truck in Jackson. Officials believe the man was compressed twice during the truck’s early morning route, first at a KFC on Highway 43 and again at a nearby Hampton Inn. The driver became aware of the situation when he arrived at a Popeyes restaurant and heard someone calling for help. The driver then stopped the truck and shut down the equipment.

We’ve never had a situation like this come up,” Brown said. Emergency officials responded to a call of a person being compressed in a garbage truck around 5:30 Wednesday morning. Officials believe the man was compressed twice. First at the KFC off Highway 43, then again at the Hampton Inn next door. When the driver arrived at Popeyes, he heard a man calling for help. “It’s really a fortunate thing that the gates at the Popeyes were closed and the driver had to get out,” Brown said. “When he exited the dump truck, he could hear the man in the back needing help, and that’s when he shut everything down.” Volunteer firefighter Mendy Boldin was one of the first responders on scene. Expecting the worst, she was surprised at what she found. “We were all shocked because we thought, well, we’re going to have to get down there and really do some trauma assistance to him to get him out, but he was fine,” Boldin said. “That was a God thing.”

Actress Catherine O’Hara, known for her roles in films and shows such as “Home Alone” and “Beetlejuice,” has passed away. She was 71. The cause of her death is unclear. Breaking news: Catherine O’Hara, the actress and comedian who delivered deliciously silly performances in movies such as “Beetlejuice” and “Home Alone,” and gained a new generation of fans as Moira Rose on “Schitt’s Creek,” has died. She was 71. https://t.co/ne4WoB63L0 — The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) January 30, 2026 TMZ has more: Catherine famously played Macaulay Culkin’s mother in the first two ‘Home Alone’ movies … and she appeared as Moira Rose in 80 episodes of “Schitt’s Creek.” Other notable movie credits include a couple mockumentaries in 2000’s “Best in Show,” and 2003’s “A Mighty Wind” … plus “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” and the OG “Beetlejuice.” Catherine’s most recent work came opposite Seth Rogen in the Apple TV+ series, “The Studio.” She earned an Emmy nomination for her work. She won an Emmy Award for her work in “Schitt’s Creek” in 2020 … it followed her first Emmy win way back in 1982 for her writing contributions to the sketch comedy TV series, “SCTV Network 90.” O’Hara’s accolades include two Primetime Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and two Screen Actors Guild Awards. Fox News shared a breaking alert: BREAKING: Emmy-winning actress Catherine O'Hara, known for her work in "Home Alone," "Schitt's Creek," and more, has died. She was 71. pic.twitter.com/fLU0EBSQVc — Fox News (@FoxNews) January 30, 2026 PEOPLE shared further: O’Hara was born in Toronto in 1954. She was the second youngest of seven children; her father worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway, and her mother was a real estate agent. Her first acting gig was portraying the Virgin Mary in a Nativity play. After graduating from high school, she got a job as a waitress at the Second City Theater in Toronto. “I was lucky enough to watch everybody,” she told PEOPLE in 2024 of the theater’s legendary talent, which included Dan Aykroyd, Joe Flaherty and family friend Gilda Radner. When she auditioned to become a member, Flaherty had some discouraging feedback. “He said, ‘Keep up the good work. Your day job, I mean: waitressing,’” she told PEOPLE. She didn’t listen and landed a spot when she auditioned again. She joined the company in 1974. One of her stagemates was comedian Eugene Levy, who would become one of her closest friends and collaborators. O’Hara told The New Yorker in 2019 that at first she was scared of being on stage. “My crutch was, in improvs, when in doubt, play insane. Because you didn’t have to excuse anything that came out of your mouth. It didn’t have to make sense.” In 1976, the theater began its own TV show, called Second City Television (and usually abbreviated as SCTV). O’Hara was a staple of the sketch program, which aired on NBC in the ‘80s. O’Hara became known not only for her impressions of celebrities, including Meryl Streep and Brooke Shields, but also for original characters that became fan favorites. O’Hara was content with SCTV, but the show did not provide her with a consistent paycheck. “Our producer would get a deal with a network, and we’d have a show for a season or two, and then that deal would go away. There’d be a break, then we’d do the show again,” she told PEOPLE in 2024. During one break in 1981, “I got asked to be on Saturday Night Live. And of course I said yes. Who doesn’t want to do that?” But then SCTV was picked up again and she went back to her home — before she’d ever done a single episode of SNL. Her best friend from high school, Robin Duke, took her SNL slot. “It all worked out the way it was supposed to,” she reflected. As part of the SCTV writing staff, she received five Emmy nominations, winning once. Do you agree?

What goes up, must come down… For the past four years, I’ve been preaching constantly about Gold and Silver, saying they might be some really smart protection to add to your portfolios. Of course I’m not a financial advisor and I can’t give anyone personalized financial advice, but I can report on historical trends and what I’m seeing in the markets. So that’s what I’ve done ever since Gold was in the low $2,000 range and Silver was in the high teens / low $20s. Then just like my namesake, after years of preaching about Gold and Silver, suddenly the skies broke open, it started to rain, and we rode the wave in the Ark together. I know MANY of you rode that wave with me because you’ve written me or left comments saying how much it’s changed your life: “THANK YOU NOAH!” But as we started to go parabolic in both Gold and Silver, with Gold blasting over $5,000 and Silver going over $120, I started saying don't forget to take profits if you're up big! First here: Folks, it’s never a bad idea to take some profits if you’re up HUGE on Gold and Silver
