  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is Columbus Local Pulse for January 12, 2025.

    We're starting with breaking news from the past few days. The suspect in the Gaudreau brothers' deaths has pleaded not guilty, and we'll continue to follow this case for updates[1]. In other news, Columbus officials are addressing the recent teen charged for shooting at police, emphasizing community safety and ongoing investigations[2].

    Moving to the job market, there haven't been any major hiring announcements or significant layoffs reported recently. However, we encourage you to check local job postings from top employers like Ohio State University and Columbus City Schools for new opportunities.

    In real estate, there haven't been any notable commercial or residential property sales reported in the last few days. However, we're keeping an eye on new development projects and construction updates, especially with the city's ongoing efforts to revitalize neighborhoods like Franklinton.

    From city hall, we have updates on decisions affecting daily life. The city is reminding residents about the importance of clearing snow off sidewalks, as per Columbus city code, to ensure pedestrian safety[1]. Additionally, there are ongoing discussions about zoning changes and property developments, which we'll continue to monitor.

    Weather-wise, we're expecting a quiet day before the next snow event. Temperatures are expected to remain cold, so make sure to bundle up if you're heading out. The recent snowfall has caused major delays for Ohio River barge and towboat operations, and we're advising everyone to check for closures and delays before traveling[1][2].

    In new business activity, McDonald's is offering McValue menu deals in Central Ohio, providing affordable options for locals[1]. On the other hand, we haven't seen any major business closures reported recently.

    Looking ahead to community events, this weekend offers a variety of activities. From Legoland to COSI, there are plenty of things to do in Columbus. You can catch live music, art exhibits, and sporting events throughout the city[3].

    In local school achievements, Ohio State is gearing up for the Cotton Bowl Classic against Texas, and we're rooting for our Buckeyes[2]. In other sports news, the Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has had a medical setback, which may impact his future with the team.

    For a feel-good community story, the Tri-County Joint Fire District is holding a pancake and sausage breakfast on January 18 to support local firefighters[5].

    In today's crime report, Columbus police are investigating the death of a child near the Franklinton area and are searching for men who 'sucker punched' people in the Short North[1][2]. We urge everyone to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

    This has been Columbus Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
