WILMINGTON, N.C. —
A historic home featured in the beloved 90s teen drama “Dawson’s Creek” is now on the market for the first time since its construction nearly 150 years ago.
Located in Wilmington, North Carolina, the four-bedroom house sits on nearly two acres and includes a private dock, a familiar sight for fans of the show.
Iconic scenes, such as Joey Potter crawling through the window into Dawson’s bedroom, were filmed outside this very house.
The structure has a unique history, built using wood from a shipwrecked schooner and moved to its current location over log rollers pulled by a single horse.

LA PLATA COUNTY, Colo. — Authorities issued an immediate evacuation order for parts of La Plata County on Saturday after levee breaches caused flooding near Vallecito Creek north of Bayfield.
Breeches occurred on the west side of the creek, forcing an immediate evacuation of homes on West Vallecito Creek Drive, according to the Upper Pine River Fire Protection District.
Nearly 350 homes were evacuated, though no injuries have been reported.
Evacuees are asked to check in at Bayfield High School, located at 800 County Road 501, where a shelter has also been established.
A map of the evacuation area has been posted here.
Crews are asking for volunteers to fill sandbags at Upper Pine Fire Station 1 on Clover Drive.

The breeches occurred after stream gauges hit 1,040 cubic feet per second, signaling high spring runoff.
Heavy rain is expected around 11 p.m., raising flood concerns in North Vallecito, the fire district said.
The district said it has activated equipment, prepared emergency contacts, and is urging residents to avoid creek banks, which may be unstable and prone to erosion.
Officials are urging motorists to drive slowly and carefully as they may encounter debris and mud on the roads throughout the county.
Officials cite the October 2006 flood, when debris and rising waters damaged flood control structures and forced evacuations of at least 18 homes.
Rising water levels are also being reported in parts of San Juan County, where officials are warning that some minor flooding may occur.

VANCOUVER, Wash. — The Clark County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) is investigating two separate incidents involving women who reported being followed or assaulted while walking or running on the popular Salmon Creek Trail near Klineline Park.
First Incident: Sept. 3 — Woman Assaulted While Walking Dog:
On the afternoon of September 3, 2025, a woman reported being assaulted while walking her dog eastbound on the Salmon Creek Trail near 800 NE 117th Street.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, the woman told 911 dispatchers that around 3:42 p.m., a man ran up behind her and forcefully grabbed her buttocks before continuing along the trail without speaking. The suspect reportedly looked back at the victim but did not make contact again.
The man is described as:
White male, in his 20s
5’9” to 5’10” tall
Muscular or athletic build, slightly tan
Brown, bushy or shaggy hair
Shirtless, wearing knee-length black shorts
Wearing black athletic gloves with grip fingertips
This incident is being investigated as Assault IV with sexual motivation.
Second Incident: Sept. 8 — Woman Followed, Possibly Recorded:
A second incident was reported on September 8, 2025, involving a woman who said she felt unsafe while running on a trail in the same area.
She described seeing a white male, very tan, with a muscular build and approximately the same height as the previous suspect. This man was wearing a tan long-sleeve shirt and a mask or face covering pulled over his nose. It is unclear if he had facial hair.
The woman told deputies the man appeared to be filming her with his phone, holding it with both arms extended. She saw him again sitting on a bench, still pointing the phone in her direction. Feeling uncomfortable, she moved to a more populated area of the park.
She later filed a report after seeing a social media post referencing a similar encounter.
Investigation Ongoing
CCSO has not confirmed whether the two incidents are connected but says both cases remain under investigation. Authorities are asking anyone who may have witnessed these events or experienced something similar in the area to come forward.
Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.

A 65-year-old woman died after falling off an e-bike into a creek while on a ride with her husband, Colorado sheriff’s officials reported.
The woman was reported to be floating face down in Boulder Creek at 4:22 p.m. Friday, May 31, the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
Rescuers pulled the woman from the creek in Boulder Canyon and tried to revive her, but she died after being taken to a hospital, deputies said.
She and her husband were riding e-bikes on the bicycle trail along the creek when she fell off her bike into the creek near Boulder Canyon and Four Mile Canyon, deputies said.
Deputies, police, firefighters and rangers responded to the accident.
“This incident highlights the importance of safety while recreating in Boulder County, especially near water sources that may appear deceptively calm but can be hazardous,” the sheriff’s office said in the release.
Boulder is about a 30-mile drive northwest from Denver.

Environmental activists have opened a new front in their long-running fight against a company that pipes water from the San Bernardino Mountains and bottles it for sale as Arrowhead brand bottled water.
In a petition to the state, several environmental groups and local activists called for an investigation by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, arguing that the company BlueTriton Brands is harming wildlife habitat and species by extracting water that would otherwise flow in Strawberry Creek.
Those who oppose the taking of water from San Bernardino National Forest want the state agency to assess the environmental effects and uphold protections under state law, said Rachel Doughty, a lawyer for the environmental nonprofit Story of Stuff Project.
“They’ve dewatered the creek,” Doughty said.
If the company weren’t siphoning water in its network of pipes, she said, Strawberry Creek “would be habitat for endangered species, it would be providing a downstream water supply, it would support fish, and it can’t do any of those things without water.”
The coalition of environmental groups and activists said in their May 13 petition that the state agency should demand the company apply for an authorization — called a streambed alteration agreement — for its pipes and other infrastructure, and should examine whether the ongoing diversion of water violates state environmental laws.
The groups said the company’s taking of water has “caused the extirpation of native species and the destruction of riparian habitat — clearcut harm to the public trust.” They urged the state to “take all appropriate enforcement action.”
Aggressive and impactful reporting on climate change, the environment, health and science.
Activists who have been trying to shut down the company’s bottled water pipeline made their appeal to the wildlife agency eight months after the State Water Resources Control Board voted to order the company to halt its “unauthorized diversions” of water from springs in the San Bernardino Mountains.
State officials determined the company has been unlawfully diverting water without valid water rights. But BlueTriton Brands sued to challenge that decision in Fresno County Superior Court, arguing the process was rife with problems and that the company is entitled to the water.
A spokesperson for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife said the agency has received the petition and is evaluating it.
BlueTriton Brands responded to the petition in an email.
“Responsible and proactive water stewardship is central to everything we do. We’re proud of the work we’ve done and continue to do in Strawberry Canyon, studying, reporting, and managing our operations to help protect the land and natural resources,” the company said. “We will continue to operate in compliance with all state and federal laws.”
The company also said it will “partner with people in our communities, governments, policy makers, businesses, and consumers to sustainably protect and shape our shared future.”
But Steve Loe, a retired biologist who previously worked for the San Bernardino National Forest, said the state should require the company to stop taking water from the creek and the ecosystem.
“The stream has been completely dried up by BlueTriton, and BlueTriton needs to put some water back in the stream to meet state and federal requirements,” Loe said. “Restoring water back to Strawberry Creek will make a huge difference in the watershed for all of the plant and animal species.”
Restoring water to the habitat would help endangered bird species such as the southwestern willow flycatcher and least Bell’s vireo, he said, as well as other species including the mountain yellow-legged frog and southern rubber boa.
He said a flowing creek could also support the return of native fish species, such as Santa Ana speckled dace.
In the petition, Loe and others cited historical records describing the springs and the creek nearly a century ago, including field notes and reports from W.P. Rowe, an engineer who surveyed the watershed starting in 1929.
Rowe wrote that Strawberry Creek flowed on the south slope of the San Bernardino Mountains from a “source at a group of springs” and flowed in a canyon filled with “alder, sycamore, dogwood and cedar trees together with ferns and thimble berry bushes.”
Loe said the records show that before the water was tapped for bottling, the stream was flowing and supported a thriving riparian habitat, which is now largely dry.
“It’s public water,” Loe said. “And the public has a right to push for its protection.”
“I want water back in the creek this summer,” he said.
In the decision that is being argued in court, the state water board ordered the company to stop taking water for bottling from most of its water-collection tunnels and boreholes in the mountains north of San Bernardino.
Records show about 158 acre-feet, or 51 million gallons, flowed through the company’s network of pipes in 2022.
The system of 4-inch steel pipes collects water that flows from various sites on the steep mountainside above the creek.
The pipeline runs to a roadside tank, and some of the water is hauled away on trucks to be bottled and sold as Arrowhead 100% Mountain Spring Water.
Local activists have campaigned for years calling for state and federal authorities to shut down the bottled water pipeline. Controversy over the use of water from the national forest erupted after a 2015 investigation by the Desert Sun revealed that the U.S. Forest Service was allowing Nestlé to continue siphoning water using a permit that listed 1988 as the expiration date.
The Forest Service subsequently began a review of Nestlé’s permit, and in 2018 granted a new permit for up to five years. The revelations about Nestlé piping water out of the national forest sparked an outpouring of opposition and prompted several complaints to California regulators questioning the company’s water rights claims, which led to the state’s investigation.
BlueTriton Brands took over the bottled water business in 2021 when Nestlé’s North American bottled water division was purchased by private-equity firm One Rock Capital Partners and investment firm Metropoulos & Co.
BlueTriton and prior owners of the business have for years had a federal “special-use” permit allowing them to use the pipeline and other water infrastructure in the San Bernardino National Forest.
The Forest Service has been charging an annual permit fee, currently $2,500 per year. There has been no fee for using the water.
BlueTriton’s 2018 permit expired in August, and the company has submitted an application to renew the permit, which Forest Service officials are reviewing, said Gustavo Bahena, a spokesperson for the San Bernardino National Forest.
“Because Blue Triton had a timely request for renewal of the permit, the current permit remains in effect… until the Forest renders a decision on their new request,” Bahena said in an email.
Other groups that are petitioning the state include Save Our Forest Assn., Center for Biological Diversity, the local chapter of the Sierra Club, Southern California Native Freshwater Fauna Working Group and the Tri-County Conservation League.
Amanda Frye, an activist who has taken a leading role in the campaign, said she thinks the Forest Service is failing to uphold its responsibility to manage public land and resources.
“We still have a dry creek,” Frye said.
“Something’s got to change,” she said. “We have the right to have these resources protected.”

GENEVA, Fla. —
Two people are safe after getting stranded on a boat in Geneva on Sunday morning.
Seminole County Fire Department crews got a call to Mullet Lake Park around 2 a.m.
That’s where they found two boaters trapped on a sand dune about 150 yards from the main waterway.
Crews tell us the pair was driving the boat down the creek and ran aground.
Responders got them back to shore by 2:45 a.m., and no one was hurt.
Fire rescue crews taped off the boat until they could remove it because it was sitting in a high-traffic area.
CHESTER, Pennsylvania — A recovery operation continues Monday in the search for a young girl who was swept away in a rain-swollen southeastern Pennsylvania creek over the weekend.
Crews will return to the water Monday morning in hopes of finding 6-year-old Lin’ajah Brooker as the community faces the reality that the rescue has now shifted to recovery.
Authorities in Chester County said Brooker was reported missing at about 7 p.m. Saturday after she slipped and fell into fast-moving Chester Creek, near 8th Street. Several fire companies took part in a search for the next three-and-a-half hours while the Coast Guard continued searching through the Saturday night.
The Chester Fire Commissioner says three hours was the longest someone could survive in the cold, fast-moving water.
Boats with thermal imaging were also used to scan the water while crews searched through nearby trees and debris.
“There’s a lot of debris in the water, which poses a potential hazard to our responders, but they’ve been trained to deal with those situations,” said Chester Fire Commissioner John-Paul Shirley. “We have light towers set up, we’re also flying some drones that have infrared and thermal imaging technology.”
As of Sunday afternoon, authorities say this is no longer a search and rescue effort, but a recovery effort.
Boats and drones were also used Sunday in both directions on the creek and on both sides of the Delaware River where the creek flows into it.
Brooker’s grandmother says they held out hope for as long as they could and are now focusing on remembering the 6-year-old.
“My emotions are all off hinge. I haven’t had sleep. I can’t eat. The only thing I’m thinking about is finding her,” said Brooker’s grandmother, Kimberly Richardson.
The fire commissioner told Action News that Brooker went missing while she was playing with two others.
Authorities say three girls were playing near the creek when two fell in. One managed to get out of the water while Brooker was swept away, according to investigators.
“She went down a little too far with the other kids, and my 7-year-old daughter tried to hold her and she was holding onto my daughter’s coat and I guess the wind took her,” said Tyeesha Reynolds, Brooker’s aunt.
After the girl went under, Reynolds said it was all hands on deck from the family.
“My nephew, he’s 19, he jumped in the water. My 12-year-old nephew jumped into the water,” she said. “We all were trying to hope for the best, we’re still hoping for the best.”
“It’s really hard to say anything, other than that we’re praying, we’re hoping and we appreciate the prayers and support that I understand is coming from all over the country right now,” said Chester Mayor Stefan Roots.
The family said they are also mourning Brooker’s sister who passed away on this exact day five years ago.
Richardson said Brooker was a gift to be around.
“She loved to dance. She was one of a kind and she will truly be missed in my heart,” she said.
Shirley said authorities will search the creek one final time Monday morning. This time, they’ll work with the Pennsylvania State Police and use sonar technology.
Parts of Delaware and Montgomery counties saw flooding as a result of the hours-long downpour. Some areas even temporarily closed off roadways due to flooding.
Anyone with information on this incident is urged to contact the police immediately.
CHESTER, Pennsylvania (WPVI) — Authorities are still searching for a child who was swept away in a creek in Chester, Pennsylvania on Saturday.
Emergency crews were called just after 7 p.m. for reports that a 6-year-old girl was swept into Chester Creek off of 8th Street.
Authorities in Delaware County are searching the creek for the child.
Boats with thermal imaging were scanning the water on Saturday night while crews searched through nearby trees and debris.
“There’s a lot of debris in the water which poses a potential hazard to our responders, but they’ve been trained to deal with those situations,” said Chester Fire Commissioner John-Paul Shirley. “We have light towers set up, we’re also flying some drones that have infrared and thermal imaging technology.”
Authorities said they were treating this incident as a rescue operation.
“The City of Chester is aggressively searching here,” added Tim Boyce, director of the Delaware County Department of Emergency Services. “Every asset the chief has requested is here. They’re doing their best and we’re going to hope for a positive outcome here.”
Family and friends were also seen along the creek, shouting for the child and assisting emergency crews.
Officials did not release any descriptions of the child or her identity.
The fire commissioner told Action News that the girl went missing while she was playing with two others.
Authorities say three girls were playing near the creek when two fell in. One managed to get out of the water while the 6-year-old was swept away, according to investigators.
