The ultimate rock and roll primal scream came from a guy who looked like the biggest dork at your friend's bar mitzvah. Rest in peace, Donnie Iris.

Large police presence on Knight St in Providence. Crime tape is up around a garage type building. I saw one person being taken away in a rescue. @wpri12

A bunch of Brazilians taking on the Bangladeshi street food challenge (eat next to an open sewer, wait to get deathly ill). I'm sure the Bangladeshis were baffled as well. instagram.com/reel/DewQGYfBq…
