Investigators say she was allegedly driving impaired with six young children in the car, none secured in proper safety seats, and is being held on a $400,000 secured bond.
   

• Where commercial real estate demand is the highest, according to new data (rocketnews.com) — Raleigh is singled out as the only major U.S. metro where commercial real estate demand is stronger now than during the 2022 pandemic peak, according to new National Association of Realtors data.
