What Police Are Saying So Far

In a press release shared via the Portland Police Bureau, officials said the seizure and arrests happened Tuesday and described the drugs only as a “significant amount” of fentanyl. The bureau did not provide an exact weight or an estimated street value, keeping the early details deliberately tight while the case develops.

The statement, posted with a transcript attached, stressed that the investigation is ongoing and promised more information once details are confirmed. For now, the public is getting the broad outlines, not the case file.

Recent Crackdowns In Context

The Narcotics and Organized Crime Unit has been behind several big fentanyl interdictions in recent years. In August 2024, the bureau reported an Interstate 5 stop that yielded roughly 11 pounds of fentanyl, calling it one of the largest single day hauls in its history. That operation was run as a multi agency interdiction, according to the Portland Police Bureau.

Some of those large seizures have not stayed purely local, with trafficking cases sometimes ending up in federal court in the District of Oregon. That kind of handoff underscores how quickly a neighborhood drug investigation can turn into a federal prosecution when the quantities and networks get big enough.

The Public Health Backdrop

All of this is unfolding against a shifting overdose landscape. State data show fatal drug overdoses in Oregon dropped in 2024, but fentanyl is still very much the main character in the crisis because of its extreme potency. OPB reported that the Oregon Health Authority counted about 1,544 overdose deaths in 2024 and warned that fentanyl remains a serious threat despite the decline.

Local public health providers continue to push a two track message: expand access to treatment for people who use drugs and get naloxone into the hands of both users and bystanders who might witness an overdose.

What Comes Next In The Case

The Portland Police Bureau says the investigation is still active. The names of the two people arrested and any formal charges had not been released in the initial post, a sign that detectives are still building out the case and processing evidence.

Police asked anyone with information to contact the bureau’s public information office as investigators sort through what they recovered and decide where this fentanyl case goes next.

According to CBS12, the council approved a resolution allowing the town to submit an application to the Presidential Residence Protection Assistance Grant Program for $166,292. That round of annual grant funding covers protection expenses from July 1, 2024, through Sept. 30, 2025, the station reported.

Where the Money Comes From

Congress carved out $300 million for presidential-residence protection in last year’s appropriations package, nicknamed the One Big Beautiful Bill, which authorized FEMA to fund PRPA awards through Sept. 30, 2029, according to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. FEMA runs the Presidential Residence Protection Assistance program as a reimbursement pipeline for extraordinary law-enforcement personnel costs tied to Secret Service-designated presidential residences, and applicants have to document overtime and fringe costs to qualify, per FEMA.

Local Tab and County Requests

Palm Beach County has already laid out the scale of the hit. County agenda materials show the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office estimates roughly $45,000,000 in extraordinary personnel costs for Oct. 1, 2025 through Sept. 30, 2026 and that PBSO applied to PRPA for about $38.2 million covering July 1, 2024 through Sept. 30, 2025. The county also says it expects to receive that earlier reimbursement before Sept. 30, 2026, according to the Palm Beach County agenda. Local reporting and fact-checks place local protection costs at roughly $240,000 per day, and CBS12 reported Sheriff Ric Bradshaw told county commissioners that a 2025 trip that stretched beyond a weekend cost the agency more than $1 million.

What Happens Next

If Palm Beach's application is approved, FEMA will reimburse documented overtime and fringe costs after a review. PRPA funding is retroactive and requires jurisdictions to submit payroll and time records to back up their claims, according to FEMA's program guidance. Town and county officials say they are filing applications now so future reimbursements can cycle back into local budgets instead of leaving security costs as a permanent local burden.

A $166,292 award will not wipe out the multi-million-dollar strain, but town officials say every bit of reimbursement helps shift the financial load to the federal programs Congress created for exactly this situation. We will update if FEMA signs off on the town's application or releases additional guidance on how and when the money will be disbursed.

According to MyFox28 Columbus, the person had exited a vehicle involved in the initial crash and walked south into the eastbound lanes of Morse Road. A black sedan headed east struck the pedestrian, throwing them into the westbound left-turn lane. The sedan did not stop, MyFox28 reports, but the driver later contacted Columbus police radio and met with detectives from the Accident Investigation Unit. Investigators have not released the victim's name or said whether any charges will be filed as the probe continues.

Why This Stretch of Morse Road Matters

Morse Road has seen more than its share of serious crashes in recent months and years. Earlier this year, Hoodline reported on a separate North Side crosswalk hit-and-run that left a pedestrian badly injured. A recent Dangerous by Design analysis counted 172 pedestrian deaths in the Columbus metro area from 2020 through 2024, and city officials say Vision Zero planning is underway to better protect people walking and biking, per Axios. City crash-history data also list several Morse Road intersections among the region's high-crash locations, which is one reason detectives treat video and witness tips as crucial leads. The city's crash-history appendix offers more detailed breakdowns of those hot spots.

Investigation and Legal Stakes

Columbus police say the Accident Investigation Unit is actively investigating and has not released additional information about the victim or any potential charges. Under Ohio law, leaving the scene of a crash that results in a death can be prosecuted as a felony, typically a third-degree felony that can rise to a second-degree felony if the driver knew the collision caused the death, per Ohio Revised Code §4549.02. A conviction carries mandatory license suspension along with other penalties on top of any prison sentence a judge might impose.

Anyone with information, dash-cam video, or surveillance footage tied to today's crash is asked to contact the Columbus Division of Police Accident Investigation Unit at (614) 645-4767 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at 614-461-TIPS, according to the City of Columbus and local tipline resources. Detectives routinely seek out video, eyewitness accounts, and even partial license plate numbers in hit-and-run cases, noting that a seemingly minor detail can be the lead that breaks an investigation open.

According to WCPO, officers took one man to the hospital with life-threatening wounds while detectives remained at the scene to process evidence. The station reports that dispatch released only limited information as investigators worked to interview witnesses and gather what they could. At the time of that report, officials had not identified any suspects or announced arrests.

Scene and recent responses

Photos from local coverage showed a heavy police presence as officers checked nearby streets and secured the area while detectives worked, according to reporters. Earlier this month, authorities staged a major response at the Woodmere Apartments on Round Top Road after a separate report of possible gunfire, highlighted in coverage of cops swarm Colerain apartment complex. The back-to-back calls point to how often township officers are pulled into urgent situations.

How to reach police

The Colerain Township website notes that the police department handles more than 45,000 calls for service each year, according to Colerain Township. Anyone with information about yesterday's shooting is asked to call Colerain Township Police at (513) 321-COPS (2677). Authorities said they plan to release additional details as the investigation moves forward.

Crews work against an active leak

According to FOX 13 Seattle, the Seattle Fire Department classified the incident as a "sinking vessel" call and said firefighters were using several pumps to move water off the ferry while they searched for the breach. FOX 13 Seattle reported that water continued to pour into the Skansonia even as crews pumped it out and that the exact location of the leak had not yet been identified. Emergency responders were expected to remain alongside the vessel for hours while they fought the flooding.

A floating landmark under stress

The MV Skansonia dates back to 1929, when it was built by the Skansie Brothers, and later operated on ferry routes between Vashon Island and Point Defiance before retirement and conversion to an event venue, according to Landmark Event Co. The ship now lives full time on north Lake Union as a moored venue that lists capacity for roughly 175 seated guests and about 200 standing. With its wooden hull, vintage construction and carefully preserved details, the Skansonia is marketed as a distinctive Seattle landmark that also demands specialized maintenance.

High water and maintenance backdrop

In April, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers cautioned that Lake Washington and Lake Union could see higher-than-usual water levels this spring and urged owners of floating structures to keep an eye on lake elevations and adjust moorings as necessary. The agency said water managers were aiming for an earlier seasonal refill this year to support summer activity on the lakes. It is not known whether lake levels or any maintenance issues had anything to do with Monday’s leak.

What comes next for the Skansonia

Firefighters and venue staff shared initial details with reporters, and FOX 13 Seattle reported that crews planned to stay in place as long as needed while pumps continued running and teams searched for the breach. Landmark Event Co.’s website provides contact information for bookings and questions about the Skansonia, and organizers or guests with upcoming events were advised to check directly with the operator for the latest updates on the venue’s status. This is a developing story.

According to San Antonio Business Journal, Canvas would stretch across roughly 350 acres, be built out in four phases and could include up to 1,200 homes, with prices ranging from the $300,000s to the mid-$800,000s. As detailed by Red Oak Development Group, the firm is marketing Canvas as a master-planned community immediately west of State Highway 123 in the Geronimo area and lists the site at about 400 acres.

Where It Would Sit

Canvas is planned just west of SH-123 in the Geronimo corridor, a stretch already seeing more development and road work. State Highway 123 is slated for a roughly $47 million widening project that could reshape traffic patterns and access near the proposed community.

What Canvas Would Include

As outlined by Red Oak Development Group and reported by San Antonio Business Journal, plans for Canvas call for a network of trails and parks, along with neighborhood-scale retail woven into new residential streets. Per the Business Journal, homes in the early phases are expected to start in the $300,000s and top out in the mid-$800,000s, with full buildout spread across multiple phases.

Infrastructure And Approvals

Before any of that becomes reality, Red Oak will need plat approval and utility coordination with city and county officials, and the initial reporting did not include a construction timetable. The SH-123 widening and recent federal street grants for Seguin mean access and right-of-way are likely to be front and center in early discussions, as noted in coverage of the SH-123 gridlock-busting overhaul.

Developers typically follow up with formal plats, traffic studies and glossy marketing materials as approvals move along, and those documents will spell out the precise footprint and phase timing. We will track city and county filings and share updates as officials and Red Oak release more details.

Authorities say 45-year-old Gabriel Pardo, a registered sexual predator, was taken into custody less than 12 hours after his release from state prison. He had been fitted with a GPS ankle monitor and was tracked walking toward a Palm Coast home where he had previously victimized children.

Pardo was dropped off at a bus stop on State Road 100 in Flagler Beach at about 10:17 p.m. on June 18 and was ordered to report to the Florida Department of Corrections probation and parole office in Bunnell at 8 a.m. the next morning, according to the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office. When he failed to show up, probation officers alerted major case detectives. GPS data revealed he had walked more than six miles overnight toward the house where the earlier offenses occurred.

“This pervert, convicted rapist, pedophile and predator couldn't even make it one night out of prison before he attempted to contact the victims he assaulted,” Sheriff Rick Staly said in the agency’s news release.

Monitored Movements Lead Detectives To Old Kings Road

Major Case detectives working with the sheriff’s Real Time Crime Center used the GPS trail to zero in on Pardo and found him walking along Old Kings Road, where deputies arrested him on a violation of probation charge, as reported by News4JAX.

Investigators said there is no indication he entered the residence or made contact with anyone there. They later confirmed the victims no longer live at that address. Pardo was transported to the Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility and is being held without bond, according to the station.

Conviction History And Sentence

Pardo is listed as a registered sexual predator based on a 2018 case in which authorities say he repeatedly sexually abused two children in his care and molested a third during a sleepover. In 2019 he pleaded no contest and was found guilty of two counts of sexual battery by a custodian and one count of sexual battery. He was sentenced to eight years in state prison followed by 15 years of sex‑offender probation, the sheriff’s office said. Thursday marked the first night of that probation term, officials noted.

Investigation And Next Steps

Detectives say Pardo’s latest arrest remains an active probation violation investigation as they review his movements and determine whether any new charges are warranted, News4JAX reported.

Officials are urging anyone with additional information to contact the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office while detectives continue to coordinate with state probation officers.

Authorities say the rapid arrest highlights how GPS monitoring and close teamwork between probation and law enforcement can immediately clamp down on potential risks after an offender’s release. They plan to release more information as the investigation moves forward.

Owners Peter and David Hong confirmed the closure and said Peter, who ran the counter with his brother for decades, is retiring, as reported by Brooklyn Eagle. The brothers told the paper the cafe sold its final sandwich last Monday and that a new business is moving into the space, possibly a salad bar or another restaurant. A hand-lettered note taped to the door read, "Closed for alterations; under new management," the owners said.

The storefront is listed at 90 Henry St., and public business pages list Peter Hong as the cafe's contact and manager. Business listings and directories confirm the address and contact information for Plymouth Cafe, underscoring how long the counter has been a neighborhood fixture. BizArchive has the cafe's listing.

A Corner With Deep Roots

Two doors north, Fascati Pizza has been serving slices on Henry Street since 1971, a reminder that a few old-school spots still anchor the block even as others cycle out. The contrast between longstanding neighbors and newer openings highlights the slow churn of small businesses in Brooklyn Heights. TripAdvisor lists Fascati's founding year and location.

Ownership And Real-Estate Context

The Hong brothers own the building that houses the cafe, and city property records trace the property's commercial history; earlier reporting shows the estate of Louis Weisberg sold the site in 1989. That sale and subsequent ownership through JCI Realty help explain why the corner has been of interest to buyers and developers. Brooklyn Eagle previously detailed the property's transfer.

For now, the hand-painted note remains on the door and longtime customers say they will miss the cheap breakfasts and familiar faces. The closure is the latest sign of small-business turnover on Henry Street, and neighbors will be watching to see whether the next tenant keeps a morning counter or brings something entirely new to the corner.

Loan and lender details

According to Real Estate NJ, G.S. Wilcox & Co. arranged the $20 million permanent loan for the Hatboro property, with founder Gretchen Wilcox and partner Bridget Wilcox sourcing the financing. A correspondent life insurance company supplied the debt under a six-month forward commitment, with funding scheduled to occur once the project secures its temporary certificate of occupancy. "We are pleased to see the completion of this transaction on behalf of our long-term repeat client," Bridget Wilcox said in a prepared statement, noting that the deal locks in a favorable long-term rate.

Project details and amenities

The developer details a mix of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments alongside roughly 4,732 square feet of street-level retail space. Residents get access to on-site amenities that include a fitness center, a bark park and a private tasting room, while the location is billed as a walkable, transit-friendly option for commuters heading into Philadelphia. J.G. Petrucci Company says the project was designed to fit in with and complement downtown Hatboro.

Petrucci also says the development has started welcoming residents and is open for leasing, a shift that local coverage has noted should send more customers to nearby restaurants and shops. "We're proud to see residents moving in," Elisha Wolstenholme, executive vice president of multifamily housing at Petrucci Residential, said in the company's announcement. Patch reported that the property is now leasing to the public.

Who arranged the deal

G.S. Wilcox & Co., a Morristown-based mortgage banking firm, served as the arranger on the transaction. The firm's website highlights a long list of recent multifamily and commercial financings across New Jersey and Pennsylvania, reflecting its active presence in the mid-Atlantic capital markets. G.S. Wilcox & Co. handled origination and placement of the loan for the borrower.

What’s next

With permanent financing lined up to fund upon receipt of the TCO, the developer can turn more attention to leasing out the retail bays and stabilizing the apartment community. Commercial listings for the address show about 5,000 square feet of ground-floor space being marketed, creating an opening for local retailers and service providers to tap into commuter and downtown traffic. LoopNet lists the available retail offering at The Station at Hatboro.

One spot for screenings, counseling, and fertility care

The Cayton BRCA Center will bring genetic testing, tailored cancer screenings, risk-reducing procedures, and reproductive endocrinology services together on a single campus, according to Cedars-Sinai. Hospital leaders say the new hub is designed to offer wraparound care from prevention through treatment, with built-in clinical follow-up, research access, and entry to clinical trials.

The facility itself was made possible by a $30 million gift from the Cayton Goldrich Family Foundation, as reported by the Los Angeles Business Journal. The idea is that patients dealing with inherited cancer risk will spend less time chasing appointments and more time actually getting care.

How a single-day visit works

Instead of bouncing between imaging centers, gynecologists, oncologists, and fertility clinics over several weeks, patients will be able to knock out most of their workup in one visit, as reported by Palisades News. Surgical oncologist Dr. Farin Amersi told the outlet that the model can shrink what is normally eight to twelve separate appointments into a single day.

“Our patients will have all their screenings and receive their test results in one visit,” Amersi said. The streamlined schedule is meant to cut both the emotional stress and the logistical chaos that come with frequent, high-stakes surveillance.

BRCA1 vs. BRCA2: different risks, different timing

Physicians at the center say BRCA1 and BRCA2 are not interchangeable, and that the differences matter when it comes to preventive surgery and screening timelines, as Palisades News explains. Gynecologic oncologist Dr. Marla Scott noted that people with BRCA1 mutations face roughly a 40 percent higher risk for gynecologic cancers and tend to develop those cancers at a younger age.

That distinction shapes conversations about when or whether to remove the ovaries and fallopian tubes, consider a hysterectomy, or opt for a mastectomy. The center’s team says the goal is to personalize those decisions instead of applying a one-size-fits-all playbook.

Why Los Angeles needs a dedicated BRCA hub

Roughly one in 400 people in the United States carries a BRCA mutation, and certain communities shoulder an even higher burden. Experts say Los Angeles has lacked a centralized place that pulls together all the moving parts of hereditary cancer care, according to Cedars-Sinai.

Beyond clinic visits, Cedars-Sinai leaders say the program will back outreach efforts, research, and, in the near future, free genetic testing for high-risk communities. The aim is to reach people who might otherwise struggle to piece together a multidisciplinary team or even realize they qualify for high-risk screening in the first place.

Philanthropy behind the center

The Cayton Goldrich Family Foundation’s $30 million gift seeded the new center and continues a multiyear relationship with Cedars-Sinai that has included prior donations, Los Angeles Business Journal reports. Foundation trustees have linked the donation to personal family experiences with BRCA mutations and say they wanted to support both day-to-day care and long-term prevention.

Hospital officials say the investment will underwrite clinical programs, research, and community outreach, all aimed at cutting inherited cancer risk and catching problems earlier.

For patients and clinicians on the Westside and across Los Angeles, the immediate draw is a one-stop BRCA clinic that can condense sprawling to-do lists into a single visit. Anyone with a strong family history of breast, ovarian, pancreatic, or prostate cancer is urged to talk with a primary care doctor or OB-GYN about genetic screening. Cedars-Sinai says it will start seeing patients at the Cayton BRCA Center in early July and will begin scheduling through its usual provider referrals and central scheduling line.

Advocates hope that by making this kind of high-risk care easier to access, more patients will be flagged earlier and steered toward prevention strategies and clinical trials that might otherwise stay out of reach.

What To Expect This Week

Skies stay mostly sunny, with highs near 107°F on Monday and around 110°F Tuesday through Thursday. Nights will be sticky and warm, with lows holding in the upper 70s to mid-80s. East-southeast winds will occasionally kick up, gusting into the low 20s mph Monday and in the 20 to 23 mph range by midweek. Those winds are forecast to strengthen again Friday and Saturday, which will bump up fire danger. A slight chance of isolated mountain showers or thunderstorms creeps in late Tuesday night into Wednesday as monsoonal moisture drifts north. Any storms that do pop up should be brief and scattered but could trigger dry lightning and gusty outflow winds, according to the National Weather Service Las Vegas.

Cooling Stations And Heat Safety

To help people ride out the heat, Clark County has daytime cooling stations operating across the valley from June 22–28 for anyone who needs an air-conditioned break. Locations and hours are listed on the county site. If your air conditioning cuts out or the power goes down, head to a cooling site, drink plenty of water, and skip outdoor exertion during the hottest part of the day. With very dry, gusty winds expected to return Friday and Saturday, officials are also asking residents to hold off on any activity that might throw off sparks or open flames.

Practical Tips

Whenever possible, move outdoor chores and work to the early morning hours, dress in light, breathable clothing, and check in on older neighbors and anyone who may not have reliable cooling. If you spot smoke or signs of fire, call 911 right away and get yourself to a safe, cool place.

According to Universal Hub, the Mission Main Tenant Task Force and WinnDevelopment have filed a letter of intent with the Boston Planning Department spelling out the McGreevey Way proposal. The filing describes the project as a dedicated, "deeply affordable" senior building and directs readers to Boston planning records for the full submission and public comment schedule. The letter of intent is the first official document to move the 69 McGreevey Way concept into the BPDA review pipeline.

How It Fits Into Mission Main's Overhaul

The McGreevey Way building is being pitched as part of the larger Mission Main redevelopment that the Boston Planning & Development Agency lists on its project pages. BPDA records and earlier filings outline Mission Main as a long-running preservation and rehabilitation effort that covers roughly 535 units on the site. Boston.com previously reported that WinnDevelopment and the Mission Main Tenant Task Force have coordinated prior renovation phases using a mix of tax-credit financing and public funding.

What The New Building Would Include

The letter of intent states that the new structure would be divided between one- and two-bedroom units, with retail at street level and roughly 39 parking spaces, some tucked into a basement garage. The filing also characterizes the proposal as a public-private partnership and notes that "the BHA has expressed its support for the Proposed Project," according to Universal Hub. Advocates and neighbors are likely to zero in on how the senior-only eligibility and accessibility features are spelled out in any future permits and tenant-selection rules.

Permitting And Next Steps

The developers' letter of intent has been filed with the Boston Planning Department and is now referenced in BPDA project materials, which means the proposal will move through the BPDA Article 80 review and public comment process. The Mission Main project page and associated Article 80 records list filings and meeting schedules where residents and stakeholders can review plans and submit feedback. Any actual construction timeline will hinge on how that review plays out, along with local permitting and entitlement approvals.

Why It Matters

Setting rents at or below 30 percent of the Boston area median income puts these apartments squarely in the extremely low-income category. The City's AMI table pegs 30 percent AMI for a one-person household at roughly $34,300, which shows just how restricted these units would be in practice. Deeply affordable senior housing has been relatively rare in recent development, so a fully 30-percent-AMI senior building would mark a notable expansion of the limited stock affordable to older adults living on fixed incomes. The Boston Housing Authority and city housing officials will play central roles in determining how tenant selection and long-term subsidies are structured.

Public meeting notices and Article 80 filings will lay out the next concrete dates for comment and review. For now, the letter of intent formally plants the 69 McGreevey Way proposal in the official planning record, and future BPDA documents will show how the project evolves through hearings, applications and community feedback.

As reported by the The San Diego Union-Tribune, NASCAR San Diego President Amy Lupo said the organization has "three or four" possible dates on the board for a 2027 return and is "working with the Navy" to sort out scheduling. Lupo, who runs the local race effort, told the paper that planners are trying to balance military operations, fan demand and the broader NASCAR calendar as they consider a follow-up event. The Union-Tribune also noted that early volunteer sign-ups and local interest have been strong around the inaugural weekend.

Where July 4 Would Fit In NASCAR’s Calendar

NASCAR moved its downtown street race out of Chicago and plugged Coronado into the 2026 schedule as the sport’s lone street-course stop that summer, a shift the sanctioning body framed as part of a broader calendar shake-up. As outlined by NASCAR, the San Diego event was timed to coincide with celebrations for the Navy’s 250th anniversary while the sport evaluates future street-race dates. July 4, 2027 falls on a Sunday, making the holiday a workable slot for a headline Cup race, according to timeanddate.com.

How The Navy And Crews Prepped The Course

Staging a race on an active military base has taken serious engineering muscle. Crews and Navy Seabees inspected and welded shut more than 150 utility covers, valves and electrical boxes to make the 3.4-mile, 16-turn layout safe for high-speed racing. Track-build directors and engineers have described the work as unlike a typical street race, since the lap snakes across runways, carrier moorings and service roads instead of city blocks. That level of retrofitting, which media outlets have documented, is part of why NASCAR says it needs extra time to lock in future dates with the Navy and other partners, as FOX Sports reported.

Local Impact And Volunteer Surge

Organizers say community interest has come in hot. The volunteer program for the San Diego weekend drew roughly 900 applications for about 450 slots, the The San Diego Union-Tribune reports. NASCAR also planned a Navy Community Day to give sailors priority access on the opening day and to limit general public access for the weekend, an arrangement laid out on the event’s NASCAR San Diego site. For businesses and residents in Coronado and across the bay, another potential holiday-weekend race in 2027 would mean gearing up again for parking plans, ferry service tweaks and neighborhood access controls during the build and teardown.

What’s Next

RACER has noted that NASCAR is also exploring venue options beyond Coronado as it pieces together the 2027 calendar, and league officials say final decisions will come only after they balance venue readiness with operational concerns. For now, Coronado’s first taste of Cup-level racing has local leaders and fans wondering whether the island is on the verge of a new holiday tradition or if this will remain a one-off tied to the Navy’s 250th anniversary. Organizers are expected to firm up dates and ticketing details once negotiations with the Navy and other partners move ahead.
