A judge got shot at. A park just opened. Ohio's bills are climbing. 😬
Good morning, Cuyahoga County. A federal judge became the target of a road rage shooting in Medina County — a jarring reminder that no one is immune to the dangers of our highways. A 26-year-old suspect is now in custody, and thankfully the judge was unharmed. Meanwhile, on a considerably lighter note, Parma's dog owners finally have somewhere to let their pups run wild — a brand new joint dog park opened today in Parma Heights, the result of a genuinely impressive cross-city partnership.
On the financial front, Ohio natural gas customers may want to brace themselves — Enbridge has proposed a rate hike, and regulators are now taking public input. Nationally, oil jumped 6% on Middle East tensions, dragging stocks down with it. Fresh real estate listings are inside if you're browsing.
