Sky High Concerns: Georgia Airports Battling Soaring Numbers of Intercepted Loaded Firearms

In 2023, there has been a notable surge in the interception of firearms at Georgia's federally regulated airports, particularly at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) revealed that a staggering 93% of the firearms intercepted at airports nationwide were found to be loaded.

This increase in intercepted firearms correlates with a rise in the overall number of passengers. The TSA highlighted that in Georgia, the rate of firearms detection exceeded twice the national average. To provide a specific insight, one firearm was discovered for every 61,646 passengers screened in the state. This concerning trend underscores the need for heightened awareness and security measures at Georgia's airports.

I’m Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia.
Alleged meth trafficker who led deputies on chase denied bond

Break 1: MOG



STORY 1:Alleged meth trafficker who led deputies on chase denied bond

Jonathan Medina, an alleged methamphetamine trafficker, was denied bond by the Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office following his arrest for evading a traffic stop in Suwanee, which resulted in multiple vehicle collisions. After attempting to flee on foot, Medina was apprehended by K-9 deputies. He sustained injuries during the escape attempt and was hospitalized. Authorities found 430 grams of methamphetamine in his vehicle, leading to charges of methamphetamine trafficking, fleeing law enforcement, obstruction of officers, reckless driving, among other offenses. Medina remains in custody.

STORY 2:Gwinnett County working with state officials on road widenings

Gwinnett County is partnering with the Georgia Department of Transportation to progress road widening projects, focusing on Scenic Highway and Sugarloaf Parkway. The collaboration includes a $85,000 study for Scenic Highway, funded by the 2017 SPLOST fund, and a GDOT-overseen preliminary engineering on Sugarloaf Parkway, with the county contributing $30,000 towards the effort. These initiatives aim to address congestion and improve safety, featuring a comprehensive approach that includes feasibility studies, traffic assessments, and conceptual corridor improvements.

STORY 3: Annandale Village announces Melissa DaSilva as its Chief Programs Officer

Melissa DaSilva, a distinguished nurse and leader with a comprehensive background in behavioral health, disabilities, and nonprofit management, recently assumed the role of Chief Programs Officer at Annandale Village in April. Annandale Village stands out as a unique nonprofit in the southeast, offering a wide spectrum of care services for adults with diverse disabilities, from independent living to skilled nursing, with a focus on promoting independence and hope for the community. DaSilva is excited to bring her expertise to the organization, where she will oversee all programs at Annandale's campus, including residential programs, day programs, and health services, furthering the mission of the nonprofit.

STORY 1:Gwinnett is a top player in Georgia's film industry

Gwinnett County emerges as a significant player in Georgia's film and TV industry, hosting the Signature Georgia Entertainment 100 event, showcasing its pivotal role in the state's entertainment sector. With notable projects like Marvel's "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" and ABC's "Will Trent" filmed in the area, Gwinnett boasts a robust filmography. Despite the impending closure of Gwinnett Place Mall, other locations like OFS and Eagle Rock Studios sustain the county's allure for filmmakers. These facilities, along with Gwinnett's training programs and deep talent pool, contribute to its status as a premier filming destination, fostering job creation and economic growth in the region.

STORY 2:Gwinnett DA's Office wins statewide victim service award

The Gwinnett County District Attorney's Office's Victim Witness Program earned the 2024 Georgia Crime Victim Service Collaborative and Innovative Project Award from the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council. Recognized during National Crime Victims' Rights Week, the program demonstrated an exceptional commitment to victim-centered care. Serving over 84,000 crime victims in 2023, the program organized various initiatives like the Homicide Support Group and a candlelight vigil. They also distributed resource guides and conducted a Community Conversations web series. Gwinnett's Victim Witness Program was honored as the Child Fatality Review Committee Metro County of the Year. Gwinnett District Attorney Patsy Austin-Gatson praised the team's dedication, ensuring victims receive the support they need throughout the legal process.

STORY 3:Venezuelan refugee finds her way to GGC to complete college dream

Laura Davis, a Venezuelan native, fled her country due to political turmoil and found refuge in Lawrenceville, Georgia.

STORY 1: Gwinnett County Sports Hall of Fame Honors Class of 2024
The Gwinnett County Sports Hall of Fame held its 13th annual induction ceremony at Gas South Arena, marking a memorable evening with the surprise induction of Taylor Rooks, a journalist and Peachtree Ridge graduate, setting a precedent in the event's history. Rooks, honored alongside other distinguished Class of 2024 inductees, including NFL star Cameron Heyward, shared her immense pride and the impact of Gwinnett County on her success, highlighting the nurturing community that fostered her dreams. The ceremony celebrated the achievements of local athletes and personalities, simultaneously supporting the Gwinnett County Public Schools Foundation, demonstrating the event's dual purpose of recognition and community aid.
STORY 2: Police Arrest Man Accused of Shooting At Driver He Tried To Rob In Peachtree Corners
Gwinnett County Police have apprehended Quavion Black, a 19-year-old from Stockbridge, following a shooting incident during a robbery attempt in Peachtree Corners on April 12. The altercation occurred at The Vines Apartments parking lot, where Black allegedly demanded money from a truck driver and fired shots as the vehicle fled. Arrested on charges including aggravated assault and obstruction, Black is now detained at Gwinnett County Jail. No injuries were reported in the incident. This arrest showcases the swift response of local law enforcement to violent crimes in the community.
STORY 3: Lionheart Theatre's 'Breaking Legs' Offers Lots of Laughs
Lionheart Theatre is set to entertain audiences with its upcoming production of "Breaking Legs," a classic comedy that brings together a beautiful girl, mobsters, and mayhem in an Italian restaurant owned by a successful mobster. The story unfolds as a playwright, in search of financial backing for his latest work, entangles with the mobster's family in a series of comedic events. The theater has scheduled shows from May 3-19, with tickets available for purchase. Tanya Gilmer, Lionheart's founder, expresses enthusiasm for this crowd-pleasing comedy, reminiscent of Broadway's golden days. Directed by Scott King, the cast includes talents such as Gabby Naylor, Jackson Trent, Jr., and Justin Collins. Beyond "Breaking Legs," Lionheart anticipates a vibrant season with several other productions and summer theater camps for kids in June. Located in Norcross, the theater also anticipates a special celebration in 2025 following a pandemic-interrupted anniversary.
