Eight policemen in South Africa have been fired over the death of taxi driver Mido Macia.

Eight cops in South Africa have been fired over the death of a cabbie who was dragged behind a police van while handcuffed to its bumper.

A gruesome video of the dragging, captured on a bystander’s cell phone, had gone viral after being posted on the Internet.

In it, Mido Macia, 27, is manhandled in a Daveyton street by police who arrested him for parking on the wrong side of the road.

As people shout and scream at the officers, Macia is handcuffed to the back of a police van while cops hold his legs.

The vehicle takes off and Macia, an immigrant from Mozambique, is dragged down the road.

“The death of Mido Macia at the hands of these police officers has negatively affected the reputation of Saps (the South African Police Service), said Gen. Riah Phiyega, the national police commissioner, according to SkyNews.

The eight fired officers are also charged with murder and are free on bail pending a court hearing scheduled for February 2015.

“The sanction of dismissal is therefore welcomed and we believe it will send the correct message to other officers,” she said Friday.

The cops have been suspended without pay since Macia’s death last year.

Family blames fraternity hazing for death of California State University student

Armando Villa, 19, was one of a group of Pi Kappa Phi pledges forced to walk through the Angeles National Forest without shoes or a cell phone when he collapsed, the teen's family said. He died after a park ranger found the teen lying unconscious along a trail.

The family of a 19-year-old who died during a barefoot hike in a southern California forest claims the stunt was part of a college fraternity hazing ritual.

Armando Villa was trekking through the Angeles National Forest with a group of Pi Kappa Phi pledge brothers from the California State University Northridge when he suddenly collapsed on Tuesday, officials said.

A park ranger found the teen — his bare feet covered in blisters — lying unconscious on a trail before emergency workers rushed him to a hospital, where he apparently died from heat stroke, relatives said.

His relatives argued that the teen was with eight other pledges that were left in the woods without shoes or cell phones and had to find their way out. Each teen was given just a little water to keep them hydrated.

But police were still investigating the claims.

“We’re trying to determine is this part of an initiation or one of those rituals you do to get into a fraternity,” Lt. John Corina of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Office told the Los Angeles Times.

“It kind of looks that way. We’re trying to confirm that.”

He said investigators were still trying to determine how many people were on the hike, but most of the participants have not been cooperative.

“I think people are afraid of getting in trouble so getting the information has been slow,” Corina told the newspaper.

“Trying to wade through these rumors and prove the rumors have been slow. It was kind of they were afraid they were going to get into some trouble.”

The teen’s aunt, Maria Castenayda, wondered why her nephew was forced to endure the extreme conditions of the hike.

“No one should have to die because they want to join your group,” Castenayda told KTLA-TV.

“They want to join, let them in.”

His cousin, Mark Castañeda, told the Los Angeles Times that the teen had attended several other pledge activities during the frat’s spring recruitment. Villa thought about canceling the mountain hike, but told his parents that his friends eventually changed his mind.

“He said he’d keep his word and finish,” Castañeda told the paper.

“He didn’t want to let anyone down … He’s very trusting. He’d believe them.”

The national fraternity announced on Thursday that it had suspended the CSUN chapter pending the outcome of the police investigation.

“Hazing has no place in our fraternity,” the frat’s chief executive officer, Mark Timmes, said in a statement.

“Should the student chapter or individual members be found in violation of Pi Kappa Phi’s standards of conduct through our discipline process, they will be held accountable by the national fraternity.”

Brooklyn hit-run victim, 9, in coma after sister's death; alleged druggie driver charged

Dance teacher Julie Gibson envisions tiny ballerina Joie Sellers, a smile splashed across her pretty face and a sweet hello for all her classmates.

And then the city school educator struggles to realize the adorable 12-year-old will never dance again, her life snuffed out by a stolen minivan and a troubled driver.

“She was the loveliest of children,” an anguished Gibson, 34, told the Daily News on Friday. “No child deserves this, but Joie was exceptional. It’s heartbreaking, knowing her potential and the impact on all the other students who know her and love her.”

Two days after the fatal Brooklyn wreck, the veteran Middle School 51 teacher still speaks of Sellers in the present tense. She’s not alone as other teachers and students mourn the sudden loss.

“This has devastated our community,” said the Brooklyn teacher. “Her friends are devastated ... There are no easy answers for 12- and 13-year-old girls who just lost their close friend.”

Joie’s 9-year-old sister Charlie, who survived the deadly crash, remained in a coma Friday with a brain injury. She’s unaware of her sibling’s death, a relative said.

“Every day is an improvement, so we thank God for that,” said the girls’ great-aunt, Elise Chery. “I have faith. All you need is faith.”

Joey Sellers, right, was truck and killed by a stolen van driven by Robert DeCarlo, left, according to police.

Chery, speaking at the family’s Brooklyn home, recalled Joie as a special young lady, a straight-A student and an aspiring dancer.

Just two weeks ago, she appeared in a play at Brooklyn College.

“Joie is a beautiful girl,” said

Chery, 52, a social worker. “She came to this earth. She has accomplished what God wanted her to accomplish.”

Marcia Landis, 38, was critically injured in the wreck that killed Joie and nearly killed Charlie. Relatives were holding vigils at two hospitals.

Robert DeCarlo, 26, of Brooklyn, who relatives say has a history of drug abuse, was charged with manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide and leaving the accident scene.

Before the crash, he had been charged in recent months with assault, robbery and drug possession.

Prosecutors requested $60,000 bail in the March 21 beating, but Brooklyn Judge Miriam Cyrulnik released DeCarlo on his own recognizance.

Joran Van der Sloot's pregnant new bride arrives at Peruvian jailhouse for wedding service

The murderer marries. The main suspect in Natalee Holloway's murder gets hitched to his pregnant Peruvian girlfriend. He’s serving a 28-year sentence for a separate killing.

The lady killer is now a married man.

Dutch citizen Joran Van der Sloot exchanged vows with his pregnant Peruvian girlfriend Friday in a jailhouse service at Piedras Gordas penitentiary in Lima.

The bride, Leidy Figueroa, wore a white, knee-length dress and arrived at the prison with her mother.

A small group of paparazzi captured her appearance and screamed her name as she got out of a black car, clutching a bouquet and pulling a chiffon wrap around her shoulders.

She wore a ring with a stone in it, but it was not a diamond.

Her baby is due in September.

Conjugal visits are granted to all prisoners at Piedras Gordas

Van der Sloot confessed to beating, choking and suffocating 21-year-old business student Stephany Flores after hooking up with her in a Peruvian casino in 2010. He was sentenced to prison in 2012.

He also is the prime suspect in the 2005 murder of Alabama teenager Natalee Holloway, who was killed in Aruba in 2005 during a high school graduation trip. Her body has never been found.

Van der Sloot will be extradited to the U.S. after he serves his sentence in Peru.

Tensions Mount as Troops Scour Hebron in Search for Missing Youths

HEBRON, West Bank — Kayed and Hassan Jaber, brothers who drive trucks loaded with marble from this city’s quarries into Israel each day, stood in the doorway of their Star of the South company here Monday afternoon watching pretty much nothing happen on the street.

There were no trucks to drive because of a one-day strike in solidarity with hunger-striking Palestinians in Israeli prisons that shuttered nearly all of Hebron’s stores and industry. Worse, with Israeli troops limiting entry and exit as part of a crackdown after last week’s kidnapping of three Israeli teenagers, the Jabers were worried that Monday’s wedding party for Kayed’s 17-year-old daughter would be ruined.

“Our children, the prisoners, more than 50 days they’re without food, and nobody talks about it. Because of this kidnapping, the whole world opens its mouth,” said Kayed Jaber, 49, a father of 10. “They have three boys missing,” he added, referring to Israel. “This is like they arrest 800,000 people in the Hebron area — look at the checkpoints.”

It was Day 3 of what Palestinians are universally calling a “siege” on Hebron, the West Bank’s largest city and a perennial hotbed of tension and clashes. Israel had arrested 150 people, most of them leaders of the militant Islamic movement Hamas, and in Monday’s wee hours Aziz Dweik, a Hebron resident who is speaker of the inert Palestinian Parliament.

The local radio station played warlike anthems interspersed with bulletins about how many tanks were invading what neighborhood. In the Bab al Zawya district, Israeli soldiers fired rubber bullets at a few youths hurling stones and rolling flaming tires. Along Peace Street, the main thoroughfare, sweet shops and cellphone stands, car dealerships and clothing boutiques all sat idle behind roll-down gates or wooden shutters.

Many said there had not been similar scenes since the violent second intifada in the early 2000s.

“We, as Palestinians, of course we are suffering collective punishment,” said Daoud Zatari, Hebron’s mayor. “If it will last long it will have devastating and severe consequences on the people, not only from the economic side. The life is miserable now. They are feeling they are living in a surrounded zone, as if we are all in a big jail.”

Hebron, a half-hour drive south of the hitchhiking post in the Gush Etzion settlement block where the teenagers were last seen Thursday night, was the focal point of the Israeli military campaign. But Hamas-affiliated legislators, former ministers, professors and operatives were arrested across the West Bank, and a few of the night raids turned violent.

In the Jalazoun refugee camp near Ramallah, Israeli troops killed Ahmad Arafat Samadiyeh, according to the emergency room chief at Ramallah Hospital, who said Mr. Samadiyeh, 30, was dead when he arrived at 3 a.m. on Monday, a bullet in the right side of his chest.

Here in Hebron, Mohammad Qawasmi, 8, was wounded when soldiers stormed his family’s home, bombing its gate, to arrest his 28-year-old brother, Zeid, according to relatives.

By Monday afternoon, women and children peered from rooftops and balconies as Israelis in combat gear conducted house-to-house searches in Taffouh, a hilltop village west of Hebron.

As if literally searching for a needle in a haystack, an Army dog sniffed at piles of straw alongside a sloping driveway. Was the dog tracking the scent of the missing teenagers, or drugs or weapons? “He can smell everything,” was all a soldier would allow.

Ikhlas Emreish, 38, stood outside with her husband and seven children, ages 1 to 18, after about 10 soldiers spent perhaps five minutes checking their quarters. “They opened the cabinets — just looked, nothing else,” Ms. Emreish said.

Asked whether the family was connected to Hamas, the 18-year-old, Suleiman, joked, “We’re with the ‘Piece of Bread’ party.”

Up on the main road, a group of men stared at the barred window of a second-floor apartment where, they said, 14 people had been held by Israeli troops for more than 24 hours. “No cigarettes, no phones,” said one of the men, Mohammed Nasser, 46, a cabdriver. “We don’t know why.”

When a reporter tried to enter the building, soldiers with rifles drawn descended the stairs. “Go away,” one said.

Mr. Nasser said afterward, “I don’t agree with kidnapping of any people — and also with putting people in siege like this.”

But many here and elsewhere in the Palestinian territories questioned whether the abduction even happened. Leaders referred to the “alleged kidnapping” in some of their official statements, and social networks were filled with conspiracy theories of how Jewish settlers staged the event or the Israeli government was using it as a pretext to oust Hamas from the West Bank and thwart the Palestine Liberation Organization’s recent reconciliation with Hamas.

Ahmad Abu Eisheh, 27, noted that no credible claim of responsibility had yet emerged.

“Hamas announces when they kidnap,” said Mr. Abu Eisheh, who works at a cleaning company. “For sure it’s a film. They want to destroy the reconciliation.”

Nayef Hashlamoun and Said Ghazali contributed reporting.
