A 5-year-old boy who died after he was found foaming at the mouth in his family’s Bronx apartment was the youngest of five being raised by their struggling dad who was facing eviction, his family told The Post.

De’Neil Timberlake, described by his grandfather as “a beautiful soul,” was pronounced dead at St. Barnabas Hospital shortly after his father found him unconscious inside the apartment in Belmont around 3:30 am on Sunday, authorities said.

“He was a sweet child,” grieving grandfather Joseph James said. “He was sweet as hell. He didn’t cause any trouble. I’m broken-hearted right now.

More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter. That is exactly what is happening, she said.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, has recently introduced a tiny 8lb dog named Bingo who is looking for her forever home. Bingo is a 3-year-old Shih Tzu mix with an adorable appearance and a sweet disposition. However, she needs a patient and understanding owner who recognizes that "dogs are not toys, and not all dogs love to be picked up right away," explains Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. This little lady requires some decompression time upon arriving at her new home to settle in comfortably.

A New Jersey corrections officer was arrested for allegedly trying to choke his girlfriend during a domestic dispute — which only ended when she smashed a wine glass on the side of his head, The Post has learned.

It’s not clear what prompted the July 21 argument between Sgt. Alwin Dickson, 42, of Passaic, New Jersey, and his unidentified victim — who cops would only say “meets the definition of a victim of domestic violence,” according to a complaint obtained by The Post.

But Dickson — a 22-year-veteran of the Passaic County Sheriff’s Office who makes about $141,000 a year — was...

The mantis shrimp is one tough customer. Beautiful and deadly are two words you don’t typically use to describe shrimp, but the mantis shrimp is definitely in a class of its own; earning a reputation as the ‘savage boxer of the sea’ and one of the most fearsome creatures in the ocean. And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.
