Arnold Schwarzenegger allegedly hit cyclist with his car

<p dir="ltr">Arnold Schwarzenegger has allegedly been involved in a car accident that resulted in a woman being sent to hospital. </p> <p dir="ltr">The former California governor, 75, reportedly struck a woman on Sunday who was riding a bike with his car after she swerved into his lane, according to<em> <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/02/05/arnold-schwarzenegger-involved-bicyclist-traffic-accident-not-at-fault/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TMZ</a></em>.</p> <p dir="ltr">A spokesperson for the Los Angeles police department could not immediately confirm the accident to the <em><a href="https://pagesix.com/2023/02/05/arnold-schwarzenegger-involved-in-car-accident-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a></em>, although police sources told TMZ that Schwarzenegger was not to blame for the accident. </p> <p dir="ltr">The source said Schwarzenegger, who is an avid cyclist himself, was not able to avoid the unidentified victim in the crash after the woman made a left turn in front of Schwarzenegger's vehicle before he could hit his brakes to come to a stop.</p> <p dir="ltr">The actor was reportedly co-operating with officers at the scene in West Los Angeles, while the cyclist was taken to hospital with minor injuries. </p> <p dir="ltr">Schwarzenegger also allegedly took the woman's bike to a local shop to repair the damage it sustained from the collision. </p> <p dir="ltr">An investigation into the incident is still ongoing, while reps for Schwarzenegger have yet to comment on the crash. </p> <p dir="ltr">The Austrian-born actor has had a run of bad luck with motor vehicle accidents lately.</p> <p dir="ltr">In January 2022, Schwarzenegger was involved in a multi-car crash in Brentwood, California.</p> <p dir="ltr">Schwarzenegger walked away from that crash seemingly uninjured, but another person involved sustained a head injury.</p> <p dir="ltr">Sources said at the time that the star was “deeply concerned” about the woman and intended to personally check up on her.</p> <p dir="ltr"><em>Image credits: Getty Images</em></p>

More details revealed by father of Queensland cop killers

<p dir="ltr">The father of the two men who shot at two Queensland police officers has opened up about his son’s gun obsession and how they turned away from religion which eventually led to the horrific murder of the officers.</p> <p dir="ltr">Constable Rachel McCrow, 29, and Constable Matthew Arnold, 26, were fatally shot at a property in Wieambilla, three hours outside of Brisbane as they carried out a missing persons call.</p> <p dir="ltr">Nathaniel and Gareth Train were identified as the two brothers who killed the officers, with their father Ron Train revealing how the pair turned to the dark side.</p> <p dir="ltr">“I’d describe them as two boys who lost their way in life,” he told <em>A Current Affair</em>, refusing to say they are monsters.</p> <p dir="ltr">Mr Train explained that he raised his sons with Christian beliefs but they turned away from religion before becoming estranged from their parents when they were in their 20s.</p> <p dir="ltr">“They went down this track, this dark track, which we have no understanding of.”</p> <p dir="ltr">He explained that the pair soon became obsessed with guns and that it was Gareth who showed more interest in the activity and was more controlling.</p> <p dir="ltr">“He was very difficult to control, very overpowering.”</p> <p dir="ltr">But in a surprising turn of events, Mr Train believes that Nathaniel’s marriage to Stacey Train, the third shooter, was up in the air after Gareth married her.</p> <p dir="ltr">“I just think in the end that he took over that relationship that Nathaniel and Stacey had,” Mr Train continued.</p> <p dir="ltr">Nathaniel and Stacey’s two children however were also estranged from the family.</p> <p dir="ltr">Mr Train said he broke down in tears after hearing what his sons had done saying he couldn’t take responsibility for their actions or defend them.</p> <p dir="ltr">“I cried out to God, because, you know, I’m a believer. I just could not understand,” he said.</p> <p dir="ltr">“Those decisions were made as adults. I can’t accept responsibility for something in an adult mind.</p> <p dir="ltr">“There’s no excuse for that. No excuses for their behaviour, and I don’t excuse my boys of their actions at all.</p> <p dir="ltr">“They’ll stand before God in this world. They can’t be brought to justice in the secular world, but they will before God.”</p> <p dir="ltr">Constable Matthew Arnold and Constable Rachel McCrow were at a property in the western Darling Downs, about three hours west of Brisbane when they were shot on December 12.</p> <p dir="ltr">One of the neighbours, Alan Dare, 58, was also shot and killed in the attack.</p> <p dir="ltr">Constable Arnold and Constable McCrow were joined by two other officers, Constable Keeley Brough and Constable Randall Kirk, both aged 28, at the property.</p> <p dir="ltr">A six-hour siege ensued, with the officers opening fire about 4.45 pm which saw Constable Arnold and Constable McCrow killed.</p> <p dir="ltr">Constable Kirk was also wounded while Constable Brough, who was only eight weeks into her new role, managed to escape and raise the alarm.</p> <p dir="ltr">The pair were finally joined by Special Operations police and helped them shoot dead three suspects, including brothers Nathaniel and Gareth Train, and Stacey Train, after a six hour siege.</p> <p dir="ltr"><em>Images: Nine News</em></p>

Denazify Ukraine? This is not true!</p> <p dir="ltr">“Ukraine is a country with a Jewish president, a Jewish president I might add, whose father’s three brothers were all murdered by the Nazis.</p> <p dir="ltr">“You see, Ukraine did not start this war. Neither did the nationalists or Nazis. Those in power in the Kremlin started the war. This is not the Russian people’s war.</p> <p dir="ltr">“As a matter of fact … what you should know is that 141 nations at the UN voted that Russia was the aggressor.</p> <p dir="ltr">“They called for it to remove its troops immediately. Only four countries in the entire world voted with Russia. This is a fact.”</p> <p dir="ltr">Schwarzenegger spoke about how Russian artillery and bombs have destroyed “whole city blocks”, including hospitals, and of the three million refugees who have fled the country.</p> <p dir="ltr">“It is a humanitarian crisis,” he said. </p> <p dir="ltr">“Because of its brutality, Russia is now isolated from the society of nations. You’re also not being told the truth about the consequences of this war on Russia itself.</p> <p dir="ltr">“I regret to tell you that thousands of Russian soldiers have been killed.</p> <p dir="ltr">“They have been caught between Ukrainians fighting for their homeland and the Russian leadership fighting for conquest.”</p> <p dir="ltr">He said that both the citizens and soldiers had been lied to by the government, and that the wildly different things they have been told - from going to fight Nazis to particpating in training exercises - were all false.</p> <p dir="ltr">He then questioned the Russian government’s willingness to sacrifice soldiers for “your own ambitions”, and urged Russians listening to help him spread the truth.</p> <p dir="ltr">“Let your fellow Russians know the human catastrophe that is happening in Ukraine,” he said.</p> <p dir="ltr">Schwarzenegger’s message came as Ukrainian cities continued to be bombed, with the capital Kyiv being the target of missiles early on Thursday morning.</p> <p dir="ltr">The southern city of Mariupol was also the target of heavy attack, with city officials estimating at least 2400 people had died as a result.</p> <p dir="ltr">According to US authorities, an estimated 28,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or wounded during the three-week invasion.</p> <p dir="ltr"><span id="docs-internal-guid-b7521013-7fff-d307-95ca-d5be4c8e23a0"></span></p> <p dir="ltr"><em>Image: @schwarzenegger (Instagram)</em></p>

“Come with me if you want to live”: Arnie's plea goes viral

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hollywood legend and former Governor of California Arnold </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Schwarznegger has posted a message for those hesitant to get the COVID-19 jab. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The 73-year-old took to Facebook to encourage people to get the vaccine for the good of themselves and everyone else, which has gone viral. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Schwarznegger has famously pushed for people in the US to accept any vaccine available to them in order to get the pandemic under control. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In his post, he highlighted the importance of listening to experts and not unreliable online sources. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He said, “</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">I always say you should know your strengths and listen to the experts. If you want to learn about building biceps, listen to me.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Dr. Fauci and all of the virologists and epidemiologists and doctors have studied diseases and vaccines for their entire lives, so I listen to them and I urge you to do the same. None of us are going to learn more than them by watching a few hours of videos.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He went on to express the importance of not relying on misinformation about the COVID jab, and for people to admit they don’t know as much as the experts.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Some people say it is weak to listen to experts. That’s bogus. It takes strength to admit you don’t know everything. Weakness is thinking you don’t need expert advice and only listening to sources that confirm what you want to believe.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The post has seen new light with high-profile figures such as columnist Piers Morgan, American journalist Brooke Cain and championship basketballer Rex Chapman all resposting the important message.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The post comes after Schwarenegger’s video of him getting vaccinated also went viral in January.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He got his jab at a drive-through vaccination site in Los Angeles, and encouraged others to do the same saying, “Come with me if you want to live.”</span></p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Image credit: Shutterstock</span></em></p>

7 children who followed in the footsteps of their actor parents

<p>These days you’d be hard-pressed to find someone in Hollywood who <em>isn’t</em> related to entertainment royalty.

The actor and model has appeared in many films directed by his father, including <em>Gran Torino</em> and <em>Invictus</em> as well as other films like 2014’s <em>Fury</em>.</p> <p><strong>Eva Amurri</strong></p> <p>Eva, 31, is the daughter of director Franco Amurri and Susan Sarandon.
