HAYWARD — Two men have been arrested and charged with several felonies for allegedly attacking and threatening a 17-year-old boy who resisted their attempts to recruit him into a subset of the Norteños, court records show.The defendants, both Hayward residents aged 41 and 26, were charged with making criminal threats, illegal gun possession and dissuading a witness, along with enhancements alleging the use of violence and being armed during the commission of the crime.

After missing the first half of the season, Giants outfielder Luis González is nearing a return.González, who underwent back surgery in spring training, began a rehab assignment Monday with their rookie-league affiliate in Arizona. An important milestone in a long road back, González was scheduled to serve as the designated hitter in his first game action since last season.Rehab assignments for position players can last up to 20 days, aligning González’s potential return with the timeline shared by president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi during his midseason media availability.González, who hit .251/.320/.357 as a rookie in 2022, “could be a factor for us in August,” Zaidi said.The back injury, a chronic issue for the 27-year-old outfielder predating his time with the Giants, forced the native of Hermosillo, Mexico, to miss the club’s two-game series in his home country earlier this season.Related ArticlesSan Francisco Giants | SF Giants sign...Men to compete in artistic swimming for first time at Paris Olympics

FUKUOKA, Japan (AP) — Snicker if you wish. Guffaw for good measure. Bill May and other male synchronized swimmers — now called artistic swimmers — have heard the putdowns before.But they’re getting the last laugh.Men have competed in synchro at the lower levels for decades. Now they’re being included in the Olympics, meaning next year’s Summer Games in Paris.“I think it’s a huge opportunity for the sport to grow and attract more men,” May told the Associated Press at the World Aquatics Championships. “By keeping men out you’re limiting the sport. By including men you’re going to see an upshift in the popularity and the numbers.”May looks like a lean bodybuilder. He was among the first men to compete when synchro was included in the worlds for the first time in 2015. And he worked for 17 years at Cirque du Soleil doing water-themed shows. He has come out of competitive retirement for a chance to compete at the Olympics.“There has always been ...Latest news
