🚨Car hits store: One person was injured and taken to the hospital after a car crashed into Flowerama at the corner of E. Dorothy Lane and Shroyer Road. Police said that the employee sustained minor injuries, and were alert and talking when the Kettering Fire Department took them to the hospital.
👷🏽Riverside road work: Roadway construction in a bustling area of Riverside is set to begin this summer. As we learn in Aimee Hancock’s story, a project to upgrade roadway infrastructure on Harshman Road, at the Beatrice Drive and Valley Pike intersections, will begin on June 1, city officials announced.
🚧Traffic/construction news: Our own Greg Lynch is now composing a special story weekly on local construction projects and traffic changes. We wanted to make sure you get it before the workweek begins, so we will post it to our website on Sunday afternoons at 2pm. Please keep an eye out for it, because it could save you commute time during the week. I will also include a link to it in my Monday morning newsletter, in case you miss it on Sunday.
We have a lot more news for you today found below! If you have thoughts or feedback on this newsletter or other news tips, please let me know at jeremy.ratliff@coxinc.com.
