A former Southwest Airlines employee has filed a discrimination lawsuit claiming the airline allowed employees to create a whites-only break room at Houston’s Hobby Airport.

Jamel Parker, who was fired by Southwest last year, says he learned about the so-called “WB” when he started working for the airline in 2013. He claims it existed for years until a recent renovation of Hobby Airport.

Parker’s lawsuit also claims black employees found a noose made of bungee cords at a Southwest gate at Hobby.

His lawsuit alleges black employees are held to a higher standard than their white counterparts.

A woman killed three people at a drugstore distribution center Thursday in Harford County, Maryland, before shooting herself twice, officials said.

A law enforcement official who had been briefed on the incident provided the casualty toll for CNN. Another source close to the investigation said the woman was a disgruntled employee. She shot herself in the head in an apparent suicide attempt, but was unsuccessful so she shot herself again, the source said.

The shooting occurred at a Rite Aid support facility about 30 miles northeast of Baltimore. It was not clear if the woman worked for Rite Aid or for another company in the area.

This city will decide the fate of lucky rabbit's feet -- not to mention coats, handbags and ear muffs -- as it considers Tuesday whether to ban natural fur from sale in clothing.

The motion would "prohibit the manufacture and sale of fur products, including apparel made in whole or in part of fur, or any fashion accessory." Besides mink stoles or fur-trimmed jackets, the ban would include  handbags, shoes, hats, earmuffs, jewelry, and key chains.

The British media outlet The Guardian has obtained a copy of porn actress Stormy Daniels' soon-to-be released memoir Full Disclosure, and the tale apparently is as salacious as the title would indicate.

Daniels explains her claim that she slept with President Donald Trump in 2006, why she decided to sign a $130,000 hush agreement in the days preceding Trump's 2016 election, and why she later decided to go public with her story.

The government watchdog overseeing the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) found that the agency failed in its duties to properly monitor asbestos levels at schools.

Between fiscal years 2011 and 2015, the EPA only conducted 13 percent of the school inspections it was responsible for statewide, an EPA Office of Inspector General (IG) report released Monday found.
