A FATHER was mistaken for a homeless man by a neighbor who reported him to the police for stealing his own child.
Influencer Chapman Hamborg, 33, was walking around his neighborhood with his baby in a carrier on his chest when he received an unexpected visit from authorities later that day.

Hamborg posted the hilarious mix-up on Instagram, with a video of him and his baby.
The words on the screen read: “POV: Your neighbor calls the cops, reporting you as a homeless man with a stolen baby.”
In the video, Hamborg is wearing a baggy brown Patagonia jacket, stained jeans, and tattered slippers with his long hair up in a bun on the top of his head.
“I take our newborn daughter for walks around our neighborhood while wearing her in the baby carrier multiple times a day,” he wrote in the video’s caption.
“I am surprised all of my neighbors haven’t seen me and recognize me by now.”
The dad lives in Huntington Beach, California, and said he likes to walk his daughter around the area to give his wife a break.
Later in the afternoon, authorities arrived at Hamborg’s home to question him about his walk.
“Were you going for a walk?” an officer asked the father.
“Is this baby or something? Your neighbors saw you and thought you were homeless.”
In the quick video of the incident from April 22, Hamborg’s wife, Hannah, could be heard freaking out about the cops being called.
“Stop! No, they didn’t,” Hannah replied when Hamborg told her about the neighbor calling the cops.
“This lady lives a street over,” the officer explained to Hamborg in the video.
“She saw you, she got worried, so she followed you and then saw you walk into here.”
The father joked about the mistake in his caption, saying he may need to start dressing better.
“Apparently I need to work on my appearance—I guess being an artist or a tired dad isn’t a valid excuse,” he wrote.
“If you saw me, would you have thought I was homeless?” he asked.
Hamborg’s video has racked up over 50 million views, with thousands of commenters shocked by the interaction.
I would like to use it as an opportunity to get to know my neighbor and to be thankful that she’s looking out for our kids or the neighborhood.
Chapman Hamborgtold People Magazine
Hamborg told People that the officer was “very friendly and kind,” so he didn’t have his guard up.
“I already kind of had a hint that there must have been some sort of miscommunication.”
The father said he’s thinking of sending his neighbor a letter, thanking her for being vigilant rather than accusing her of attacking him.
“I would like to use it as an opportunity to get to know my neighbor and to be thankful that she’s looking out for our kids or the neighborhood,” Hamborg said.
“Rather than, you know, turning it into a divisive thing.”

FORMER White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is abandoning the Democratic Party, calling it ‘broken’ in her upcoming book.
Jean-Pierre, 50, is writing about her experience working in the White House for two years and eight months during the Biden administration in her tell-all.

GettyJean-Pierre’s new book comes out October 21[/caption]
“Jean-Pierre didn’t come to her decision to be an Independent lightly,” Hachette Book Group said in a press release for her book, Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines.
The press secretary was the first black and openly gay woman to hold the position.
“Until January 20, I was responsible for speaking on behalf of the President of the United States,” Jean-Pierre said in a statement.
“At noon on that day, I became a private citizen who, like all Americans and many of our allies around the world, had to contend with what was to come next for our country.
“I determined that the danger we face as a country requires freeing ourselves of boxes. We need to be willing to exercise the ability to think creatively and plan strategically.”
Jean-Pierre succeeded Jen Psaki in 2022 as press secretary and previously worked for the Obama administration as a regional political director.
In her new book, Jean-Pierre will walk readers through her experience working under both administrations.
The press release promises a detailed look into the atmosphere of the White House in the weeks leading up to the end of the Biden re-election campaign.
“She presents clear arguments and provocative evidence as an insider about the importance of dismantling the torrent of disinformation and misinformation that has been rampant in recent elections and provides passionate insight for moving forward,” the book announcement said.
The book will follow Jean-Pierre’s journey from being a highly involved member of the Democratic Party to an Independent.
“Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent…and what questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically.”
The upcoming book is already being contested by democrats.
“What her publisher means to tell readers is that she is INCOMPETENT, not independent,” an insider told The Post.
“Just incompetent. But we don’t need to read about it— we watched it.”
“Put this ‘bombshell’ at the top of the Trump book-burn pile. Right next to Jake Tapper’s own toothless tome.”
Another democrat told the outlet that they “can’t look away.”
I determined that the danger we face as a country requires freeing ourselves of boxes. We need to be willing to exercise the ability to think creatively and plan strategically.
Karine Jean-Pierrein a statement about her book
Jean-Pierre defended her bold stance on the Democratic Party in a post on Instagram.
“I think we need to stop thinking in boxes and think outside of our boxes, and not be so partisan,” she said in a video promoting her book.
“This book ‘Independent’, it’s about looking outside of boxes, not just always being in a partisan stance.”

GettyBarkley isn’t even 30 years old yet[/caption]
While speaking to Chris Long on his podcast Green Light, Barkley revealed that he is going to retire “out of nowhere.”
“I’ll probably be one of those guys that it’ll be out of nowhere,” he said.
“I’ll probably just wake up one day, whether it’s next year or two years or four years, and just be like, ‘Yeah it’s over.'”
“I don’t think I will ever lose that passion. The competitive nature is always going to be there.”
Barkley revealed that he wanted to follow in the footsteps of his favorite player when it comes to his retirement.
“My favorite player of all time is Barry Sanders,” he said.
“So probably something like that. Maybe one day it’ll out of nowhere.
“I’ll probably be balling and just be like, ‘Yea, call it quits.'”
Barkley put together one of the greatest running back seasons of all time in 2024, and Eagles fans will be hoping he stays on the team for years to come instead of retiring.
In his first year with the team, he ran for 2,005 yards with 13 touchdowns.
He also added on 278 receiving yards with two more touchdowns.
Barkley is under contract for the next four seasons with the Eagles.
If things go well, he will hopefully play out all of those seasons before deciding to retire.
However, based on his comments, it isn’t a guarantee that he will play the entirety of his contract.
This terrified Eagles fans, and they shared their thoughts on social media.

“Don’t pull a Barry Saquon,” one fan said.
“WHY????? I’m in shambles,” another fan said.
“He will retire when his contract with Philly is up I think,” a third fan said.
“Can definitely see it being in a couple years. He has received a ton of volume dating back to college,” a fourth fan said.

TAIWANESE beauty influencer Guava Shuishui has died at the age of 24 as a result of a “sudden illness”.
The content creator, known to her fans as Guava Beauty, gained a large following as a result of her controversial habit of tasting makeup products as she tested them.

According to a social media post shared on her account, Guava died on May 24 from a “sudden illness”, as translated from English.
The influencer created mukbang videos, in which she would eat makeup products, including lipstick, blush, face masks and cotton pads.
Mukbang is a popular online trend, especially in South Korea, where a person films themselves eating a large amount of food while interacting with an audience.
The post announcing her death can be translated as: “Although this journey came suddenly, Shuishui held on to every difficult moment just like she has always been – hard-working, serious and shining.
“Thank you to everyone who has liked, left a message and laughed with her, and thank you for your love and support.
“She really keeps it in her heart and cherishes it very much.
“Guava Shuishui simply continues to glow in a different place.
“When we meet again one day, she should be unboxing angels’ exclusive makeup.”
Her parents also made a separate post today, promising not to delete their daughter’s account describing it as a “link with your [fans’] memories with Guava” and a “space full of laughter and genuine connection”.
The content creator acknowledged in the caption of a popular Instagram reel that eating makeup products was “controversial”.
In the video, she applies a jelly blush to her cheeks before sticking a fork in to take a bite.
One concerned user commented: “Please can you stop this behaviour… You can eat in private, you can eat whatever you like. Really don’t promote the act of ‘eating makeup,'” according to the English translation.
Another wrote: “Is it really okay to eat this?”
Guava responded by explaining that she spits the makeup out, joking that otherwise, she would have to see a doctor.
It comes a teenage influencer tragically died after she allegedly unlocked her safety belt while parasailing.
Tijana Radonjic, 19, fell into the sea from a great height in Montenegro, reportedly after suffering a panic attack.
Her body was retrieved from the water and taken to the marina before emergency services confirmed her death.
Authorities are investigating what caused her to unbuckle her belt, remove her legs from the straps and fall from the seat.
