Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG 



STORY 1: Two Arrested In Gwinnett Road Rage Shooting

Two Riverdale residents, Paola Nicole Cruz Pena, 21, and David Jesus Ravelo Cedeno, 25, are facing charges after a road rage incident on Nov. 25 escalated into a shooting in a Peachtree Corners parking lot. The altercation began with a dispute between two vehicles, resulting in Cedeno shooting one individual during a physical confrontation. Police apprehended the suspects in Riverdale. Pena faces charges including aggravated assault and tampering with evidence, while Cedeno is charged with multiple offenses, including aggravated assault, firearm possession during a crime, and reckless conduct. Both are held in Gwinnett County Jail as police continue to investigate. 

STORY 2:   Gwinnett Animal Shelter Closed After Illness Outbreak

The Bill Atkinson Animal Welfare Center in Gwinnett County is closed until Dec. 17 following an outbreak of Streptococcus zooepidemicus, which caused the deaths of three dogs. Strep Zoo, a bacterial infection, can cause severe respiratory distress, nasal discharge, and rapid health decline in dogs, potentially leading to death without timely antibiotic treatment. The center stopped adoptions and is collaborating with the Georgia Department of Agriculture to prevent further spread. Pet owners are advised to watch for symptoms and seek immediate veterinary care if needed. The shelter remains open for pet reclaims and intake of sick or aggressive animals. 

STORY 3:  Buford to host Holiday Festival and Parade on Saturday

The Buford Business Alliance is hosting its annual Buford Holiday Festival and Parade on Saturday along Buford’s Historic Main Street. The parade, featuring over 50 entries including the Buford Band of Wolves and Santa in a vintage red truck, starts at 9 a.m. and ends at the festival grounds at 301 East Main Street. The festival runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and includes holiday shopping, food trucks, performances, and a free Kids’ Zone with bounce houses, a balloon artist, and caricature drawings. Guests can also enjoy free photos with Santa. Proceeds from the event support local nonprofit organizations, school groups, and scholarships for Buford High School seniors.

Break 2: 08.05.24 OBITS_FINAL 



STORY 4:  Attempted Murder Suspect From South Carolina Arrested In Gwinnett County

A 20-year-old man, Emmanuel Williams, was arrested in Gwinnett County for shooting and injuring two adults and a 1-year-old child in Seneca, S.C. Wanted for three counts of attempted murder, Williams was located using Flock cameras after being linked to a black SUV in the area. When police attempted a traffic stop, Williams fled, leading to an 80 mph chase. Officers performed a PIT maneuver near Duluth Highway, stopping the vehicle and arresting him. Williams faces charges including felony fleeing, reckless driving, driving on a suspended license, and more. He was checked for injuries before being booked into the Gwinnett County Jail. 

STORY 5:  Gwinnett Police Remind Residents To Take Precautions After Coyote Sightings

Gwinnett County police are advising residents to stay cautious following multiple coyote sightings in the area. To ensure safety, they recommend removing food sources like pet food and birdseed from yards, keeping small pets indoors or supervised when outside, and always leashing dogs. Residents are encouraged to contact Gwinnett Animal Welfare at 770-339-3200 for concerns or unusual coyote activity. Officials noted that while coyotes are common, attacks on humans are rare, with most reports involving sightings. 



Break 3: 



STORY 6:  Ossoff grills postmaster general over continuing delays in mail delivery

U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff criticized Postmaster General Louis DeJoy for failing to meet his pledge to restore on-time mail delivery in Georgia, which remains at 75%. The delays began after a new mail distribution center in Palmetto opened last year, with issues arising from a postal restructuring plan aimed at financial self-sufficiency. DeJoy admitted to ongoing challenges, despite promising improvements within 60 days. Ossoff highlighted the severe impacts on seniors awaiting prescriptions, small businesses, and timely delivery of critical notices. DeJoy defended the three-day target for mail delivery, while Ossoff urged for better performance. 



STORY 7:  Brookwood Football Parts Ways with Head Coach Philip Jones

Brookwood High School has parted ways with head football coach Philip Jones after 10 seasons. Jones, an alum and former team captain of the 1996 state championship team, led the Broncos to the playoffs eight times, including a Final Four appearance in 2017. His deep ties to the program include playing and coaching under Brookwood legends and continuing his father's legacy as a longtime coach. Despite dealing with health struggles this past season, Jones' impact is widely recognized. The school will now start a nationwide search for a new coach to build on Brookwood's proud traditions and history of success.
