1. Mother accused of abducting 5-year-old from daycare on Cincinnati's West Side (local12.com) — A 5-year-old boy taken from a Green Township daycare on Cincinnati's West Side was safely reunited with his father after a countywide alert helped Cincinnati police locate the suspect's vehicle near Mt. Adams. Officers arrested the boy's biological mother, who was under a protection order, and she now faces multiple charges from both Green Township and Cincinnati police.
   

2. Cincinnati Surveillance Oversight and Its Impact (thecincinnatiexchange.com) — Cincinnati City Council has ordered a detailed report on how the city uses surveillance tools like cameras, drones, and license plate readers, which could lead to new limits and transparency rules. Council is also weighing changes to the chronic nuisance ordinance that would more tightly regulate problem commercial properties, prompting concerns from Black and brown business owners about potential unequal impacts.
   

3. Infant Death: Tragic Case in Cincinnati (thecincinnatiexchange.com) — Cincinnati police are investigating the death of a 24‑day‑old girl who was found unresponsive in a Kennedy Heights home and later died at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.

4. Honda Accord donation supports future auto technicians (cincinnati.com) — Cincinnati State's Automotive Technology students are getting hands-on access to a brand-new 2024 Honda Accord, thanks to a donation from the Jeff Wyler Automotive Family at its Milford corporate office. The car will be used in labs to teach up-to-date automotive technology and support apprenticeships, helping local students prepare for in-demand technician careers in Greater Cincinnati's auto industry.
   

5. Family, football photos to remember for Madeira's Cooper Blackburn (cincinnati.com) — Madeira quarterback Cooper Blackburn returned to the field this season against Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, a year after suffering a severe foot injury in the same matchup.
