Good morning, Dublin. Columbus is about to earn its slice of history as the International Pizza Expo makes its first-ever stop in our region this October. Traditionally anchored in Las Vegas, the world's largest pizza trade show chose Columbus specifically for its reputation as "one of the world's most pizza-obsessed cities" – a delicious recognition of our local food culture. The Greater Columbus Convention Center will host this landmark event, giving pizza enthusiasts a rare opportunity to experience the industry's biggest gathering.
Meanwhile, a dramatic scene unfolded at the Upper Arlington CVS on Henderson Road when an SUV crashed through the wall Thursday, leaving a gaping hole in the building. Fortunately, no injuries were reported in the noon incident, though engineers are now evaluating the structure's safety before allowing customers to return. In judicial circles, Summit County Judge Jill Flagg Lanzinger's expected entry into the Ohio Supreme Court race adds another layer to an already complex electoral contest that continues to evolve.

🚗 SUV smashes into CVS store, creating gaping hole in wall. The Thursday crash at Upper Arlington's Henderson Road location forced the store to close temporarily.

⚖️ Ohio Supreme Court race heats up with new Republican contender. Judge Jill Flagg Lanzinger from Summit County is expected to announce her candidacy for the lone Democratic-held seat on Ohio's highest court. She would join four other Republicans vying to challenge incumbent Justice Jennifer Brunner, the only Democrat holding statewide office in Ohio. The GOP primary has already seen turmoil, including an unprecedented attempt by sitting Justice Pat Fischer to run for another seat before dropping out. With the filing deadline still five months away, additional Republican candidates may yet enter this increasingly competitive race.
