• West Broward High School evacuated due to underground gas leak after multiple evacuations in recent weeks (local10.com) — West Broward High School in Pembroke Pines was evacuated again Thursday morning after another underground gas leak, the latest in a string of similar incidents over the past month. Fire rescue crews say there’s no immediate threat, but hazardous materials teams remain on scene and officials have not yet said when students will be allowed back into classrooms.
   

• Another Miami Grill ordered shut — this time in Fort Lauderdale (local10.com) — Health inspectors recently documented roaches at the Miami Grill on Pines Boulevard in Pembroke Pines, just days before a separate Miami Grill in Fort Lauderdale was temporarily shut for rodent droppings and food storage violations. State records show the two locations are separately owned franchises, and officials stress the findings apply only to those individual restaurants, not the entire chain.
   

• Florida attorney misappropriated $92,000 in divorce funds, Bar says (tampabay.com) — A Pembroke Pines title company is named in a Florida Bar case where a Lauderhill attorney allegedly misused $92,000 from divorce-related funds sent through his trust account. The Supreme Court has approved an emergency suspension for the lawyer, and Bar auditors say client money was spent on personal expenses instead of going to the ex-husband as ordered.
