Aug. 6, 1945: The U.S. Dropped an Atomic Bomb on Hiroshima
On Aug. 6, 1945, the U.S. dropped an atomic bomb for the first time in
war over the city of Hiroshima. Shinichi Tetsutani (then 3 years and 11
months) loved to ride this tricycle. That morning, he was riding in
front of his house when, in a sudden flash, he and his tricycle were
badly burned. He died that night.

Deaf Man Who Signed ‘Pig’ At Policeman Given Conditional Discharge
A man with a hearing disability from Kendal, Cumbria, was arrested after saying 'pig' in sign language to a police officer, a court heard.
South Cumbria Magistrates Court was told that police were called to McDonalds on Stricklandgate after reports of a man 'causing difficulties'. Linley Hassan, 25, of no fixed address, refused to leave the restaurant and became 'confrontational' with the police.
Peter Kelly, prosecuting, said: "He was making a sign that the officer, who understood sign language, knew to mean 'pig'." In mitigation, John Batty said Hassan had had a volatile existence of late and had been going to great lengths to reduce his alcohol intake. Hassan pleaded guilty to being drunk and disorderly. He was given a conditional discharge and ordered to pay a £15 victim surcharge and a £30 contribution towards court costs.
