ABILENE, Texas (AP/CBSLA) — A 150-mile drive to transfer an inmate in West Texas turned into a wild ride when he broke a window and got on the roof of the moving patrol car. Travelers driving by shot video of Wednesday’s antics by 31-year-old Martin Gregory Estrada of Abilene. The sheriff’s office in Abilene says Estrada was being treated at the Red River Hospital in Wichita Falls but allegedly assaulted someone, prompting the transfer. Estrada was being returned to Abilene when he slipped out of handcuffs, shattered the passenger-side window and climbed atop the patrol car – all while wearing leg irons, according to a sheriff’s press release. The deputy who was driving summoned help and didn’t stop until other officers arrived. The video shows Estrada jumping off the car, then tussling with deputies as he’s taken into custody. Martin Gregory Estrada, 31. (Taylor County Sheriff’s Office) Estrada now faces charges of evading arrest in addition to prior accusations of aggravated robbery, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and possession of methamphetamine with intent to deliver.

NEW YORK (CNN) — Facebook just suffered the biggest wipeout in stock market history. Shares plunged 19% on Thursday after executives warned that revenue growth would slow as the company focuses on user privacy. The sell-off vaporized about $119 billion in market value — the biggest single-day loss for any public company in history, according to Thomson Reuters. For founder Mark Zuckerberg, the loss came to almost $16 billion, according to Forbes , which tracks billionaire wealth in real time. That dropped him from fourth to sixth on the list of richest people in the world. Facebook Chief Financial Officer David Wehner said on a conference call with investors that Facebook is “putting privacy first” after the Cambridge Analytica scandal triggered a wave of horrible press, customer angst and regulatory scrutiny around the world. As an example of its new strategy, Wehner said Facebook will put more development muscle behind the company’s Stories feature. That will put a drag on sales because Facebook makes more money on its core News Feed than its other products. Facebook says it will spend a lot of money to accomplish its goals. Wehner said the company will invest billions of dollars per year improving safety and security after a bruising period of headlines about Facebook’s role in enabling fake news and election meddling. “We think that’s the right thing to do for the business,” he said. The company’s previous worst single-day performance was July 27, 2012, when the stock fell 11.7%. The stock tanked that day after the company failed to convince investors that it could sell mobile advertising. Mobile now makes up 91% of the company’s advertising revenue.

PALO ALTO, Calif. (CBSLocal) – A teenager is in serious trouble after going on a bizarre crime spree when his phone reportedly ran out of data. The 17-year-old suspect from Palo Alto was arrested after allegedly breaking into an area home, waking up a sleeping couple, and asking them to give him their WiFi password. “The male victim got out of bed, confronted the suspect, and pushed him down the hallway and out the front door of the house before calling police. No one was injured,” Pal Alto police said in a news release . The couple – both reportedly in their 60s – told officers that two kitchen knives went missing from their home during the teen’s alleged break-in, however police didn’t find any weapons on the suspected burglar when he was caught. According to authorities, the teen’s crime wave allegedly started a day earlier on July 21. The teen is believed to be the same person who came up to the window of a different home and asked a woman inside for her Wifi password. The teen reportedly claimed his phone was out of data. When the woman and another teen in the home ordered the suspect to leave their property, he allegedly fled on one of the their bikes. Officers say they found the stolen bike near the same location where the suspected WiFi-seeking crook was stopped by police. According to the release, “officers returned the bicycle to the victim and are recommending that the District Attorney’s Office add a charge of misdemeanor petty theft against the suspect.” The suspect – who was not publicly identified because he’s a minor – was taken to Santa Clara County Juvenile Hall and is facing a felony charge of burglary. He’s also been charged with prowling and providing false information to an officer, both misdemeanors.

BURBANK (CBSLA) – Disney became the late company to announce it will be getting rid of plastic straws. The company said it will be eliminating “single-use plastic straws and plastic stirrers” by mid-2019 at all its theme parks and other operations worldwide. According to Disney, 175 million straws and 13 million stirrers are used at its locations per year. “Eliminating plastic straws and other plastic items are meaningful steps in our long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship,” said Bob Chapek, Chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences, and Consumer Products, in a statement. This comes after Starbucks also announced earlier this month it would be eliminating plastic straws at all its stores by 2020. Disney also said it would be working to offer “refillable in-room amenities” at its hotels and cruise ships and reduce plastic bags and polystyrene cups at its parks and cruise lines. Disney alleges that it cut its greenhouse gas emissions by 41 percent in 2017.
