• CPD makes changes amid calls for increased presence near UC campus after shootings (fox19.com) — If you live, work, or go out near the University of Cincinnati, expect heavier police presence and overnight road closures on Calhoun and McMillan between Vine and Clifton through early Monday. Cincinnati police and UC police are boosting patrols after recent shootings, aiming to curb late‑night disorder while still allowing residents and employees with permits to access parking.
• 'Rooted, resilient and rising': The village of Lincoln Heights celebrates its 80th anniversary (wlwt.com) — Just north of Cincinnati, Lincoln Heights is marking its 80th anniversary with a weekend of parades, music, and reflections on its legacy as one of the nation's oldest incorporated Black municipalities. Residents and leaders describe a tight-knit community overcoming financial struggles and outside hate, while looking ahead to growth rooted in family, pride, and shared history that many Cincinnatians recognize and support.
• Coast Guard, Covington police prepare for 50th Riverfest on the Ohio River (wcpo.com) — If you're heading to Riverfest along the Cincinnati riverfront today, expect strict boating rules on the Ohio and Licking rivers, a no-wake zone, and a full river closure during the fireworks. Covington police are also closing key streets, bridges, and parking areas near the riverfront and Devou Park, so plan your arrival, alcohol, and exit route carefully to avoid delays and towing.
