STORY 1:Chris Carr first to enter 2026 governor's race

Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr announced his candidacy for governor in 2026, becoming the first to enter the race. Carr, a Republican, cites recent GOP victories as momentum for his campaign to succeed term-limited Gov. Brian Kemp. He emphasizes priorities like job creation, community safety, and reversing immigration policies. Other potential candidates include Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Carr highlighted his efforts against human trafficking and gang violence, and his role in fostering a business-friendly environment in Georgia. Carr was appointed attorney general in 2016 and reelected in 2022.

STORY 2:Gwinnett Man Arrested For Aggravated Cruelty To Animals

The Gwinnett County Police Department arrested Richard Beatty Hart, 78, of Duluth, on charges of aggravated cruelty to animals. Officers responded to a call from an animal trapper after Hart reportedly shot a Husky caught in a trap, claiming it was chasing his cats. Hart faces additional charges, including possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and reckless conduct. Animal Control advises against approaching trapped domesticated animals and recommends contacting authorities for safe removal.

STORY 3:Ken Lindahl Remembered For His Impact On Brookwood Theater Program

Ken Lindahl, a revered theater educator at Brookwood High School, passed away at 77 after an ALS diagnosis. Alongside his wife Patty, Lindahl led the school's theater program to international acclaim from 1983 to 2013, producing over 200 plays. Known for his calm demeanor, he inspired countless students, many pursuing careers in the arts. His legacy continues through his children, who are also drama educators. The Lindahls' contributions were honored by naming the school's theater after them. A scholarship fund has been established in his memory to support students exemplifying his qualities.
