Authorities say four young girls placed pillows under their sheets to dupe foster care officials before slipping out of a window and topping a 6-foot fence to flee a foster home near Tampa, Fla.

Lawyers for the families of the 96 soccer fans killed in the April 15, 1989, Hillsborough disaster have revealed a civil lawsuit against the South Yorkshire and West Midlands police, filed in 2015.

On April 15, 1989, 96 football fans died from being crushed to the point of asphyxiation during an FA Cup semi-final at Hillsborough Stadium between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest.

When police arrived, they found that 43-year-old Michael Foster had tackled 62-year-old Clarence Daniels and put him in a chokehold because he had spotted a gun under his coat. While attacking Daniels, Foster yelled “he has a gun” to which Daniels yelled back “I have a permit”.
