1:40 PM PT -- Cops in Oregon say they just caught Lyerla.

It's a crazy story ... a rep for the Hillsboro PD says they responded to a call for an overdose earlier today. When they got to the scene, they ID'ed the overdosed person as Lyerla.

Cops say he tried to run away but didn't get very far. He's currently in the hospital getting treated and will be rebooked into jail when he recovers.

Ex-Oregon Ducks tight end Colt Lyerla broke out of a jail on Thursday ... and now cops are trying to bring the 24-year-old back into custody, ASAP.

Lyerla was a key part of those insane Ducks teams from 2011 to 2013 -- winning the Pac-12 championship, the Rose Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl. He signed with Packers in 2014 but got injured before the season began.

The 24-year-old was 2 months into a 6 month sentence at a minimum security jail in Oregon stemming from a heroin arrest back in March ... but he went missing on Thursday.

Officials from the Washington County Community Corrections Center tells TMZ Sports an alarm was triggered by an open window at the jail and after a search, officers determined Lyerla had escaped.

We're told a warrant has been issued for his arrest and if/when he's caught he'll face a felony escape charge.

Lyerla has a troubled past -- with previous arrests for cocaine possession, DUI and forgery.

Scott Disick feels betrayed by Kourtney Kardashian whom he claims held out hope they could get back together at the same time she was banging a 23-year-old model.

Our Scott sources say he's devastated by the pics that came out this week of his 37-year-old baby mama with Younes Bendjima, whom she's been with since October.

From Scott's point of view, Kourtney has dangled a carrot in front of Scott, that she'd be open to getting back together if he got sober and "show respect." He says he hasn't hit the bottle in months and believes he's been extremely good to her.

So, you ask, how can Scott seriously think she'd get back with him if he's been with at least 3 women over the last 6 months? The way Scott sees it ... it was "retaliation" after Kourtney hooked up with other guys.

He also thinks it's been super unfair that when he missteps, the entire Kardashian family comes down on him like a ton of bricks, but when she crosses the line, everyone in her fam gives her a pass.

All that said, Scott wants back with Kourtney, but she's got other things on her mind and various other body parts.

A porn star shooting an underwater ad for a sex cam company was attacked by a shark and badly bitten.

Molly Cavalli dropped down under water into a shark cage wearing a hot white swimsuit and her presence apparently enticed a 10-foot lemon shark.

Check out the vid ... Molly panics when the shark approaches, and next thing you know she's screaming as she clutches her bloody foot.

The crew pulled her up to safety, but the shark had done some serious damage ... it took 20 stitches to close the wound.

Demi Moore has been sued -- belatedly -- over a death in the actress' pool 2 years ago.

TMZ broke the story ... Demi was out of town when her caretaker threw a party for a small group. Most of them left to go out at some point in the evening, and when they returned they found a 21-year-old male who stayed behind facedown in the pool.

Law enforcement told us the victim had told the group he couldn't swim and apparently tripped over something while everyone was gone and fell in the pool.

There was alcohol at the party, and that's a factor in the lawsuit.

The man's parents had sued the trust that owned the house, but Demi had not been named. She's just been joined as a defendant.

As for why Demi's sued, the parents say there were no depth markers or any safety signage in the 10-foot-deep pool. The parents also claim there were rocks around the pool which created a trip hazard. And, the parents say, the temp in the pool was 101 degrees, and they say that compromises brain function.

Mike Huckabee has a Cinco de Mayo plan that has people hotter than a bottle of Tapatio.

The former Arkansas Guv said on Twitter he's celebrating the day by downing "an entire jar of hot salsa and watching old Speedy Gonzales cartoons and speak[ing] Spanish all day."

It took about a second for a torrent of hate to be directed Huckabee's way. One person wrote, "Your attempts at humor fail almost as miserably as your attempts to run for President."

Another person wrote, "Everywhere you go you should wish everyone a blessed day in Spanish by saying 'Soy Pendejo'" ... translation ... I'm an idiot.

Kelly Slater -- the Michael Jordan of surfing -- is about to tell the world who the best celebrity surfer around is ... and sorry guys ... his pick ain't one of the fellas.

We had to surf talk with Kelly when we got him out in NYC promoting his Outerknown clothing line, and wanted to know who the world's most famous surfer is ... who's not actually a surfer.

Our guys gave Kelly a lot of options, like Jack Johnson, Jimmy Buffett, and Eddie Vedder ... but the first name out of his mouth was Victoria's Secret and SI Swimsuit model, Marisa Miller.

We looked it up ... Marisa's a legit real deal shredder, but we'd be lying if we didn't say some of the google results we got were kinda distracting from our research.

Edward Crawford, Jr., the man whose image became the defining moment in the Ferguson protests, is dead.

Crawford was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound, and police are trying to determine if it was accidental or suicide.

Crawford's dad told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, "I don't believe it was a suicide," adding cops are being "hush-hush" about the investigation.

The photo symbolized the tensions between police and protester in the wake of Michael Brown's death. Cops hurled a tear gas canister at protesters ... Crawford picked it up and hurled it back.

Crawford was 27 and the father of 4 children.

Gary the Dog turnt all the way up at a special Carrie Fisher movie screening Thursday ... and it's the most ADORABLE thing you're going to see all day!!!!!

Gary and his caretaker -- Carrie's former asst. Corby McCoin -- attended the May the 4th showing of "Postcards from the Edge" ... a movie the 'Star Wars' actress famously wrote about her relationship with her late mom, Debbie Reynolds.

But the real action went down outside Angel City Brewery in L.A. -- where Gary put on the cutest little show for his adoring fans.

Who's a good famous doggy!?! You are!! Yes you are!!!

Ashley McNeely -- who appeared with Tila Tequila on her reality show, 'Shot at Love' -- was found dead Thursday ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us cops responded to an incident and found him dead in his hometown, Beckley, WV. The circumstances surrounding his death are unclear.

McNeely had his moment ... in 2004 he rang in the New Year with Ryan Seacrest for the Times Square crystal ball drop on ABC.

Ashley also appeared on 6 episodes of the series, "That's Amore!"

He was 35.

Stacks on stacks on stacks on stacks!!

Floyd Mayweather broke the bank for the opening of his new Vegas strip club -- wheeling bags and bags of money into his whip to make sure his new joint is thunderstrormin' from the minute it opens.

Floyd is the man behind Girl Collection in Vegas -- what he describes as an "upscale" gentleman's club featuring exotic dancers from all over the world.

The club opens this week. Floyd's clearly prepared.

"American Idol" is all but certainly coming back on the air in March 2018, and even though it looks like Ryan Seacrest is out of the picture as host ... we've learned he's not out of the picture ... at all.

TMZ broke the story ... ABC wants the show and is far along in the negotiations with Fremantle, which produces the show. We're told ABC wants to announce it at the Upfronts a week from next.

As for Ryan ... as we reported, ABC inquired last week if the show could be shot in NYC, where he now has a full-time gig with Kelly Ripa. ABC wanted it NYC-based so Ryan could host, but Fremantle fired back that the show had to be shot in L.A.

So, it's impossible for Ryan to do the 'A.I.', right? Not so fast.

We're told Fremantle has always wanted Ryan as the host of the reboot, and it has been pushing ABC to run the show on Sunday nights. Here's how it could work for the 10 weeks 'A.I.' is live.

-- THURSDAYS Ryan does 'Live' with Kelly, and pre-tapes Friday's show. Kelly's been doing a Friday pre-tape for a long time, so that's not a change. Ryan jumps on a private jet early Thursday afternoon for L.A. and has Friday to prep for 'Idol.'

-- SUNDAYS Ryan does 'Idol' live at 8 PM ET, which is 5 PM PT. He jumps on his jet at 7 PM, sleeps for 4 hours and lands in NYC at around 3 AM ET.

-- MONDAYS Ryan does 'Live' at 9 AM ET, jumps in a car by 10:15 for the airport and jumps on his jet before noon for a second trip to L.A. He lands between 2:30 and 3 PM, goes to ABC and shoots the results show at 5 PM. He books it to the airport and is back in the air by 7 PM.

-- TUESDAYS Ryan sleeps on the plane for 4 hours and lands in NYC at around 3 AM ET. He's back on the 'Live' set for a 9 AM show.

His radio show is unaffected.

We're told ABC has not reached out to Ryan, but we know both the network and Fremantle think he's the franchise. There is a sticking point ... sources familiar with the negotiations tell us ABC wants the show on Monday nights opposite "The Voice," which would make this plan impossible for Seacrest, but if ABC capitulates and Fremantle wins the Sunday battle, Ryan is doable.

Aaron Hernandez went by a slew of nicknames during his time behind bars -- including "AA," "Chico," and "Big Nose" ... this according to official prison documents obtained by TMZ Sports.

Among the nicknames ...

-- Boom

-- Rokk Boy

-- Double A

-- AA

-- Big Nose

-- Chico

-- A Money

-- Can't Get Right

Mariah Carey got a Maybach for her birthday and, well, it didn't exactly float her boat.

Mimi was celebrating her belated bday Thursday night at Tao in Hollywood. She turned 47 back in March. The ride was a belated gift from her manager, Stella Bulochnikov.

Most people would've freaked out over a whip with a starting price of $200k. Mariah barely flinched.

Rick Ross extended an olive branch to Drake to squash the beef, but there is NO cease-fire with Meek Mill ... even after all these months ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the rappers tell us Da Boss thought Meek and Drizzy's war would cool down after Rick and Drake settled their differences. As we reported, Rick felt there was too much cash to be made to continue the feud.

Our Meek sources say he's not willing to follow Rick -- his label honcho -- down the road to peace because there's way too much trash talk under the bridge.

Translation: "Back to Back" is haunting his ass.

Remember, when Drake played Philly -- Meek's home turf -- Meek and his crew showed up outside the arena. Not to mention fresh disses on Meek's last track, "King" ... and Nicki Minaj's "No Frauds."

Britney Spears' old costumes are about to net one of her superfans $1 million ... or at least that's the hope of the collector who's unloading 7 vintage Brit looks.

The crown jewel of Dana Proctor's collection is the iconic outfit Brit wore during her 2001 "I'm A Slave 4 U" performance at the MTV VMAs. Python not included, but she's also hawking 6 other wardrobe selections from Brit's music vids, award shows, and Super Bowl performance with Aerosmith.

Some highlights:
- "Overprotected" music video Levi’s chaps
- 2008 VMAs custom Versace Atelier dress
- "I'm A Slave 4 U" music video costume
- "Me Against the Music" music video (feat. Madonna) costume

Important sales point: Dana's ONLY selling the wardrobe as a set. Her eBay auction ends next week, and so far the high bid is $33,400 ... so, she's a long way off that $1 mil goal.

But you know Brit fans represent.

Naima Mora -- Cycle 4 winner of "America's Next Top Model" -- claims she had her ass slapped in front of coworkers by a manager who tormented her.

Mora claims in a new lawsuit she was sexually harassed at the Alberta Ferretti boutique in West Hollywood almost from the get-go. She says she was targeted with inappropriate comments and unwanted advances for 4 months in 2015 while she worked as a sales associate.

She claims the manager's advances reached a boiling point on October 1, when he spanked her after a staff meeting in front of everyone. She also says he physically assaulted her by shoving her head. Mora says when she complained things only got worse.

Mora says HR was useless and she started suffering panic attacks on the way to work. She says she reached the breaking point and had to resign.
