The only person struck was the girl. “The passenger side front tire ran over her left leg,” the department said in a press release Saturday.The child was shaken up, but apparently not physically hurt. Her mother refused medical treatment beyond the paramedics’ initial assessment, and the girl was playing in a bounce house 10 minutes later.Bella will be returning to the cart “with extra precautions in place,” according to the fire department.Related ArticlesNational News | Three woman floating on a Montana river attac...Search map: California commutes among longest in nation.

But the second worst commute time was in Merced, California, where commuters spent around 35 minutes getting to work, with thousands commuting to neighboring Santa Clara and Stanislaus counties.

By Danica Kirka | Associated PressLONDON — A small group of asylum-seekers has been moved onto a barge moored in southern England as the U.K. government tries to cut the cost of sheltering people seeking protection in the country, British news media reported Monday.The asylum-seekers were transferred to the Bibby Stockholm, a floating hostel that will ultimately house up to 500 men, from other sites around the country. More were expected to arrive later Monday as authorities seek to reduce the number of asylum-seekers housed in expensive hotel rooms that were requisitioned on an emergency basis as the number of arrivals has surged in recent years.The barge, which is owned by UK-based Bibby Marine, is normally used to provide temporary housing for workers when local accommodation isn’t available. With three stories of closely packed bedrooms, the barge resembles a college dormitory, though the rooms are utilitarian. It also includes a kitchen, dining area, common rooms and laun...San Jose office building tied to WeWork exec falls behind on payments
