That’s a big home, all right.

Yes. And as you can see, it’s surrounded by news crews. Police Chief José Ramirez is holding a press conference at ninea.m. and we will know more then about why this young man was arrested. I’m coming to youlive.

Wow, what a story.

Yes, Scott, it’s hard to believe.

And they arrested him in the middle of a party, wow.

Yes.

Well, let’s get over to Stacey here, who’s going to tell us about the weather. Another summer scorcher, Stacey?

You’ve got that right, Scott! Get out your sunglasses and get yourself to Barton Springs, because we are headed over 100 degrees for the fifth day in a row. This is going to be a June to remember!

Barton Hills Mamas

TESLALUVR

A kid from the neighborhood was arrested last night! Apparently, a basketball star! Does anyone know more?

CARLA G

Oh my God—what?????

VICKI B

Yes. I live next door. His name is Robert Fontenot but they call him Bobcat. There are reporters everywhere. They had some huge party last night and I could NOT even get the kids to bed. They didn’t even invite us! I heard Aaron Franklin was there. Bobcat once sat down on my front lawn and played with my son. I thought it was cute at the time but now it seems very suspicious. The mom isquitethe bombshell though half the time she looks like she just rolled out of bed. She works at Hola Amigos! Though obviously doesn’t need to.

I can’t believe I’m in the middle of this drama!

BOYMAMA

I have been on the wait list at Hola, Amigos for two years!

NYCMOM

Same here! The dude who runs that place ishot.

Do you think a Barton Hills kid could have murdered someone?

MAMATOCHLOE

Their house is a monstrosity. Just FYI. I feel like the dad must have designed it himself. NO coherence. Appalling.

VICKI B

Dad is white and blasts Travis Scott from his truck. Need I say more?

MAMATOCHLOE

No! Ugh.
