Investigators say DNA evidence strongly links the officer to the alleged assault, and the Harford County state's attorney plans to personally prosecute while encouraging anyone with relevant information to contact detectives.
2. Havre de Grace tourism push draws new investment (wbaltv.com) — Havre de Grace residents are seeing the results of Mayor Bill Martin's decision to prioritize tourism marketing over paving a few extra streets, aiming to attract more visitors and investment to the waterfront city. The strategy leans on the idea that showcasing the town's charm can ultimately fund infrastructure upgrades. A partner report from the Baltimore Business Journal explores how this "sell the sizzle" approach is reshaping local development.
