Good morning, Youngstown.

Shepherd of the Valley is hosting a free senior resource fair in Girard today from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at its Tibbetts-Wick Road location for older adults and caregivers to learn about local home care, insurance, therapy and legal support (a free boxed lunch is provided while supplies last).

Cleveland-area social media influencer Joey Kinsley drives 90 minutes each week to Animal Charity in Boardman to visit Onyx, a nearly 9-year-old rescue dog who has been at the shelter since the summer when his owner was arrested — he uses his platform to boost donations for the agency and plans another playdate next week.

A man suffered a broken leg after he was struck by a car on Friday evening on Sunset Boulevard at Midlothian Boulevard on the South Side; a police officer saw him at 8:56 p.m. and the victim said he was hit by a light-skinned driver in a red or burgundy SUV who got out briefly before driving off, and he was taken to St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital.

The Jewish Community Relations Council of the Youngstown Area Jewish Federation hosted its 32nd Community Holocaust Commemoration at the Mahoning County Courthouse rotunda on Tuesday, where survivors’ families lit six candles to remember 6 million Holocaust victims.

Rabbi Seth Sternstein and Rabbi Joseph Schonberger stressed the need to pass on survivors’ memories—while many students were honored in a contest recognizing their writings and art.

The Mahoning County Career and Technical Center in Canfield today is breaking ground on a $7 million 13000 square foot health and wellness facility that will offer outpatient mental and physical health services along with a school based clinic and a training site for local health workers. Lt. Gov. Jim Tressel and superintendent John Zehentbauer said funding includes a state grant of $5,030,814 and nearly $2 million in center funds—this center will serve over 6,500 people annually when completed in August—supporting expanded community health training.

Homeowners on Shaffer Road in Champion are worried their properties may flood again after water from the weekend reached high levels at some homes, leaving residents concerned about more rain.

A trustee said flooding has troubled the area for years— a specialist will speak at Monday’s 6 p.m. trustees meeting to advise affected residents.

A former Boardman Township maintenance employee resigned earlier this month after an investigation by the Mahoning County Sheriff's office revealed he misused township funds to pay for personal items including auto parts and electronics purchased from Amazon plus evidence from surveillance and a search warrant at his home confirmed irregular purchases. Officials said the probe began when tire rims not matching township vehicles were found in a township garage and an internal audit uncovered further discrepancies.

The family of Akil Drake, who died during the Realty Tower explosion last May, asked a Mahoning County Probate Court to seal documents related to their wrongful death settlement with the building owner, property manager, and gas company.

Attorney Patrick McFarland said the motion was made to follow settlement terms and a hearing is set for May 12—other lawsuits linked to the explosion are still pending.

Poland Township Police Department has added Canine Sal to its narcotics detection team after he was rescued from the streets of Youngstown and passed evaluation by a local canine training group.
