Someone got airlifted & the weekend's already wild 🎸🚙
Good morning, Meigs County. A serious crash involving a semi had emergency crews scrambling yesterday afternoon, with one person airlifted by medical helicopter after a call came into the Sheriff's office around 3:20 p.m. — full details are inside. Meanwhile, U.S.-Iran tensions rattled oil markets and stocks, the U.S. Mint dropped Trump-emblazoned dollar coins that are already giving collectors sticker shock, and Ford hit a 20-year high in Super Duty truck production — big pickups, apparently, are recession-proof.
On the local front, the weekend calendar is looking like a good reason to leave the house — CEO Speedwagon, Jeeps Treats & Eats, and the Renee Stewart Band are all on deck. Fresh real estate listings are also waiting inside whenever you're ready to browse.
