Good morning, Toledo.

Residents say the intersection at Elsie and Garrison has many old and dangerous potholes that create hazards for walkers and drivers—one local noted there are 18 visible holes and the city is making temporary repairs while planning more lasting fixes.

Leaders at Savage & Associates are planning the Greater Toledo Home Giveaway — an event to support local pediatric patients — and say their work is rooted in philanthropy.

Residents at a busy Toledo intersection are urging local leaders to fix dangerous potholes (after numerous complaints) and officials said they are looking into solutions (repairs may start soon).

A Toledo man, Delvon Stone, 33, was indicted by a Lucas County grand jury on charges of attempted murder after he allegedly poured gasoline on the mother of his child and set her on fire, which caused severe burns requiring surgery, and he faces additional counts of felonious assault, aggravated arson, domestic violence and strangulation while his record shows two previous domestic violence convictions.

Dr. Mitchell S. McKinney was named UToledo’s next provost and will join on July 14 from the University of Akron, where he served as dean since 2021.

He helped grow student enrollment, research, and fundraising (which made him the top choice in a national search).

Forty upperclassmen from 20 local high schools raised nearly $20,000 through the YIPEE program to help 11 charities that serve kids.

The program—run by Leadership Toledo and the Greater Toledo Community Foundation—gave Toledo GROWs $2,200 to buy books for children.

Approximately 11,700 Afghan families holding Temporary Protected Status now face uncertainty when their protection ends on July 14, leaving them unable to legally work and live; local advocate Janelle Metzger from Water for Ishmael said the decision puts families at risk—those who once helped our military may be forced to leave.

The Ohio Department of Commerce and the Department of Aging are alerting seniors to scams as part of Older Ohioans Month.

Officials reported that scam complaints increased by 22% in 2024 and criminals used voice cloning and cryptocurrency to steal money — urging people to verify contacts and monitor accounts.
