Man convicted of stealing 200,000 chocolate eggs: Joby Pool, a man in England, pleaded guilty on Tuesday for stealing around $48,000 worth of chocolate eggs. Tens of thousands of Cadbury Creme Eggs (a British chocolate egg with creme filling) were stolen on Saturday, according to police. The stolen chocolate was recovered when police chased down Pool on a highway. Apparently, Pool used a metal grinder to break into the industrial unit in order to steal the chocolate eggs, the PA Media news agency reported. According to PA Media, this crime was planned. Once Pool realized he was being chased, he stopped the vehicle and knew the game was up. Pool is currently in custody and is receiving a sentence next month.

Athing Mu is the Future of Athletics in America: It’s been three years since track-and-field athlete Athing Mu was last beaten in an 800 meter race. During that time, she has been crowned American Champion, Olympic Champion, and World champion in distance- all before the age of 21. Mu is seen as the most exciting athlete in track and field at the moment. With all the buzz of her career, there’s no surprise that she feels immense pressure through each competition. “There’s pressure for sure,” she tells CNN sports from Los Angeles, California, “and not only from obviously the outside world, but for myself too- knowing that I was able to do these amazing things several years ago”. Mu is scheduled to run at the Millrose Games in New York this month.
