🦖 Dino brick bonanza

Hamilton County • August 25, 2025

Local Brew Logo
​

Good morning, Hamilton County. Dinosaurs and LEGOs are colliding in a first-of-its-kind epic collaboration that's about to transform Northern Kentucky Convention Center into a paradise of prehistoric wonder and creative construction. From October 17-19, families can journey through 165 million years of dinosaur history and dive into mountains of colorful bricks with a single ticket—a perfect STEAM-powered adventure that combines education with jaw-dropping fun just across the river.

While summer makes its grand finale this week, Cincinnati isn't letting the season slip away quietly. The Renaissance Festival's medieval merriment, Lunken Airport's warplane displays, and musical offerings from reggae rhythms to Jake Owen's country twang create a packed calendar. It all culminates Sunday with the spectacular WEBN Fireworks lighting up the Ohio River—a dazzling farewell to summer that stands in stark contrast to the sophisticated crime spree that recently targeted upscale neighborhoods across the Midwest.

🏠 Chilean burglars ransacked wealthy Midwest homes with military precision. Operating in small cells, these South American thieves targeted upscale neighborhoods across Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and Detroit, stealing over $250,000 in luxury items during one 27-day crime spree alone. They entered through back windows at dusk, using signal jammers to disable alarms and escaping within minutes with cash, jewelry, and designer goods. While many suspects have been caught and imprisoned, including those who burglarized NFL stars Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow, officials say the international crime ring operated for years through legal tourist visas.
