Break 1: MOG



STORY 1:FBI Arrests Man Accused of Robbing Armored Truck in Snellville

Demarco Johnson, accused of robbing two armored trucks in Tucker and Snellville last spring, has been apprehended by the FBI in Atlanta after evading capture for over a year. The FBI issued a warrant for Johnson's arrest in August 2023, noting his ties to the Stone Mountain and Norcross areas. A reward of $10,000 from the FBI and an additional $5,000 from Loomis was offered for information leading to his capture. Johnson faces charges including Conspiracy to Commit Hobbs Act Robbery, Hobbs Act Robbery, and Possession of a Firearm During a Crime of Violence.

STORY 2:Two Gwinnett school board races head to runoffs

In Gwinnett's recent school board elections, incumbent Tarece Johnson-Morgan secured her position for another term. However, runoff elections will determine the winners for the other two contested seats. In District 1, vice-chairwoman Karen Watkins will face Rachel Stone after neither reached the 50% threshold. Watkins received 41.81% of the vote, Stone garnered 30.57%, and Leroy Ranel Jr. secured 27.62%. Similarly, the District 3 race will proceed to a runoff between Steve Gasper, who led with 36.11%, and Shana V. White, who received 21.33%. Other candidates, including Domonique Cooper, Yanin Cortes, and Anthony Mulkey, trailed behind.

STORY 3:Northeast Gwinnett Voters Approve Mulberry Cityhood

In northeast Gwinnett County, voters approved the creation of the city of Mulberry, making it the county's 17th city. The referendum passed with 56.96% in favor and 43.04% against. Mulberry, spanning 25.9 square miles, is projected to have an initial population of around 41,000, making it the county's second-largest city. Despite legal challenges questioning its formation, including concerns about taxation and services, the referendum proceeded. Mulberry was proposed in response to a development plan, and its establishment means it will provide planning, zoning, code enforcement, and stormwater management without property taxation. City council elections are scheduled for November.

Break 2: TOM WAGES

STORY 4:Study warns nightmares may be early sign of potentially deadly diseases

A recent study suggests that nightmares and hallucinations, termed ‘daymares,’ could be early indicators of autoimmune diseases such as lupus. Researchers found that disrupted dream sleep and hallucinations often preceded lupus flare-ups. In interviews with patients and clinicians, vivid nightmares involving attacks or falling were reported as distressing. Many patients experienced reluctance to share their hallucinations, which were sometimes mistaken for psychiatric issues. Recognizing these symptoms as potential indicators of disease activity could lead to earlier intervention and improved patient care. The study underscores the importance of discussing mental health and neurological symptoms in autoimmune diseases like lupus.

STORY 5:Over 80% of parents say spring hardest time to keep things clean

A recent survey commissioned by Trane Residential reveals that one in five parents would sacrifice their yearly vacation to avoid spring cleaning, highlighting the challenges of keeping homes clean during the season. With 83% agreeing that spring is the most challenging time to maintain cleanliness, many parents find themselves sacrificing quality time with their children to clean. Moreover, 43% of children have expressed a desire for more time together while parents are occupied with cleaning tasks. The study emphasizes the impact of spring cleaning on the parent-child relationship and explores how it affects families with allergies and asthma. Notably, 94% of respondents reported experiencing allergies and/or asthma, prompting them to adopt practices to reduce allergens in their homes, such as frequent vacuuming and dusting. Additionally, the survey found that automatic repurchasing for cleaning supplies and HVAC filters can help parents manage household tasks more efficiently.

STORY 1:Gang Member Convicted of Murdering 62-Year-Old Man During Robbery

Jordan Brantley, a 27-year-old Lilburn man with a history of gang involvement, was convicted for the murder of a 62-year-old man during a robbery at a strip mall near Norcross over five years ago. Brantley, a member of the Gangster Disciples, shot the victim, Leslie Smith, in the back of the head while attempting to rob him. Another man, identified as Steven Leap, was also targeted but survived. Brantley received a life sentence plus 10 years for felony murder, aggravated assault, and violating the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act. The prosecution highlighted Brantley's violent history, dating back to his youth, and his role in the gang. Brantley was apprehended with the help of surveillance cameras after a witness reported the crime, leading police to track him to a nearby hotel where he was attempting to flee.

STORY 2:Collision In Norcross Leaves Two Dead on Sunday

Two individuals were killed and two others suffered severe injuries in a collision between two cars in unincorporated Norcross. The incident occurred at the intersection of Buford Highway and South Peachtree St. According to preliminary investigations, the driver of a red Volvo attempted to turn right, causing a collision with a black Toyota. The Volvo driver, 73-year-old Jill Swenson, and her passenger, 74-year-old William Brown, both from Norcross, died at the hospital. The driver and passenger of the Toyota remained hospitalized. Brown was known for his role as Toys for Tots Santa Claus on FOX 5 Atlanta, and both Swenson and Brown were active in Norcross' Lionheart Theatre. Gwinnett police are seeking witnesses to provide information about the accident.

STORY 3:$1 MILLION DONATION: Special Needs School Of Gwinnett Receives Gift From Coltman Farms Racing Owner

During Colton Farms Racing’s visit to the Special Needs Schools of Gwinnett, owner Brett Coltman announced a $1 million charitable donation to the Lawrenceville-based school, following a $150,000 donation made last year. The announcement, featuring the team and drivers Tanner English and David McCoy, delighted students who had the opportunity to interact with the racing team. The Special Needs Schools of Gwinnett, which serves children of all ages and disabilities, expressed immense gratitude for the donation, emphasizing the impact it will have on providing care and education services. Coltman highlighted the importance of giving back to the community and instilling values beyond racing. The donation reflects Coltman Farms Racing’s commitment to fostering not just skilled drivers, but also individuals embodying sportsmanship, integrity, and the American dream.

Residents of northeast Gwinnett County will vote on creating a new city despite a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the legislation. Judge Tadia Whitner ruled the referendum would proceed, emphasizing the issue's complexity. The lawsuit will continue regardless of the vote outcome. Arguments centered on timing and legal avenues for addressing concerns post-referendum. Supporters, wearing green shirts, and opponents, in red, filled the courtroom. Opponents questioned the necessity and feasibility of cityhood, citing concerns over tax promises and service delivery. Legislators supporting the referendum expressed excitement about the democratic process. Despite the controversy, the vote will proceed as scheduled.

STORY 4:Former Democratic congressman pledges support for abortion rights in Georgia Supreme Court bid

In a rare contentious Georgia Supreme Court race, candidate John Barrow emphasizes reproductive rights, contrasting with incumbent Justice Andrew Pinson. Barrow's campaign focuses on protecting abortion rights, drawing support from advocacy groups like Planned Parenthood. Pinson's campaign argues against Barrow's stance, accusing him of violating judicial ethics by pledging to rule on specific issues. Barrow defends his position, stating he's not pre-judging cases but expressing his legal interpretation. Despite judicial ethics concerns, legal experts note that Georgia's judicial election system allows candidates to articulate their judicial philosophies to voters.
