>BREAKING: Richard Tillman, the younger brother of the late NFL player and Army Ranger Pat Tillman, was reportedly arrested in San Jose, California after allegedly livestreaming himself deliberately crashing his vehicle into a U.S. Postal Service building early July 20, 2025. The incident occurred on the 6500 block of Crown Boulevard and resulted in a two-alarm fire that engulfed part of the facility. The fire was extinguished by San Jose Fire Department units, and no injuries have been reported.
