Woman Sues Apple For $350 Million Over Wellington Store Discrimination Claim

WELLINGTON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A Palm Beach County woman is suing Apple for $350 million. She claims staff at the Apple Store in The Mall at Wellington Green treated her like a thief because she is Black, then took her iPhone apart and handed it back broken. Curtashia Oliver, who is representing herself, says she went to the store with her husband on Sept. 25 for a confirmed appointment. She had forgotten the passcode to her iPhone 14 Plus and just wanted it erased. According to the complaint, the employee helping her told a coworker, “She’s Black, she probably stole it, I don’t know if I should help her erase it.” Oliver says she heard it. The suit also claims staff joked about her older phone and kept asking whether it was really hers. Oliver alleges employees took the phone to a back room and kept her at the store for hours past closing. When it came back, the suit says, it had been completely disassembled, its internal retention screws were removed, and it looked like it had been dropped. The phone now won’t get past recovery mode, cutting her off from her photos,

School Bus Stop-Arm Cameras Launch Across Palm Beach County, $225 Fines Coming

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — The School District of Palm Beach County and the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, in partnership with BusPatrol, have launched the Palm Beach County School Bus Passing Safety Program to curb reckless driving around stopped school buses and safeguard students traveling to and from school. About 750 buses in the district’s fleet now carry stop-arm cameras, allowed under a 2023 Florida law authorizing school bus infraction detection systems. The cameras switch on automatically whenever a bus flashes its red stop signals, recording video and photos of any vehicle that doesn’t stop. A Sheriff’s Office deputy reviews every flagged event. If the deputy confirms a violation, a Notice of Violation goes in the mail to the vehicle’s registered owner. Drivers get a grace period first. Starting Nov. 16, 2026, motorists caught illegally passing a stopped bus will receive an educational warning by mail, with no fine. Full enforcement begins Jan. 5, 2027, when confirmed violations carry a $225 civil penalty. Because it’s a civil penalty, no points go on the driver’s license. The numbers behind the program are stark. The National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services estimates
