• Florida loses 4 grocery stores as Southeastern chain makes major changes (newsbreak.com) — Shoppers in St. Petersburg will lose a neighborhood Publix as the company closes its store at 5577 Park Street N. as part of a broader Southeast footprint shake-up. While some locations in other cities will be rebuilt, Publix hasn't detailed replacement plans for this St. Pete site, even as it continues opening and modernizing stores elsewhere in Florida.
• Seminole Woman, St. Petersburg Man Hospitalized Following Crash In Pinellas County (tampafp.com) — A St. Petersburg man and a Seminole woman were hospitalized Sunday after a three-vehicle crash at Park Boulevard and 83rd Street North in Pinellas County. Troopers say the Seminole driver's left turn in front of the oncoming St. Petersburg driver triggered the collision, which also damaged a parked car. Authorities have not yet released the victims' names or conditions.
• Rays rested, ready for ALCS battle vs. Guardians (statenews.net) — Playoff baseball returns to St. Petersburg as the Rays host the Cleveland Guardians in Game 1 of the ALCS, following a sweep of the Yankees. Manager Kevin Cash says the team used in-stadium scrimmages to stay sharp during their break, while starter Drew Rasmussen looks to continue his dominant postseason run against a Guardians squad coming off a grueling five-game series.
