CNN: Sean 'Diddy' Combs arrested in New York
SUMMARY: Music mogul Diddy Coles has been arrested in New York City, according to CNN. He was taken into custody at a Manhattan hotel and processed on federal charges, though the specifics remain undisclosed. The charges are thought to be linked to Homeland Security search warrants executed on his homes in Los Angeles and Miami in March, which led to a grand jury indictment. Coles’s attorney asserts that he is innocent and cooperating with authorities, noting that he traveled to New York in expectation of these charges. Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
The federal investigation was revealed in March when Homeland Security Investigations agents raided Combs’ mansions in Los Angeles and Miami.

Weather Impact Alert issued from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. Christmas Eve
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Kim Castro warns of weather impact on Christmas Eve due to storms from 8 PM to 2 AM. While the severe weather potential is low (level one), isolated storms could produce hail and gusty winds, affecting Harris County and much of Southeast Texas. Rainfall may reach 1-2 inches, with isolated areas potentially experiencing localized flooding. A shift in high pressure and an incoming front are contributing to these conditions. For safe travel, consider adjusting plans to avoid late-night driving. Christmas Day will be quieter with only early morning showers expected before clear skies in the afternoon. More rain is forecasted later in the week.
The KHOU 11 Weather Team is keeping an eye on two different fronts heading to Southeast Texas.
