📰 News we're reading

1. Cleveland mother wants bullying enforcement after son beaten unconscious at Max S. Hayes (cleveland19.com) — A Cleveland mother is pushing for stronger bullying enforcement after her 15-year-old son was beaten unconscious in a stairwell at Max S. Hayes High School and treated for a concussion. Cleveland police and the Cleveland school district documented the April attack, but only short suspensions followed, and the boy is now transferring as classes resume Monday.
   

2. Is that a construction barrel you dragged through those stop signs? (cleveland.com) — Recent police reports from Orange and nearby suburbs include an impaired driver dragging a construction barrel, a resident losing nearly $25,000 in a phishing scam, and an arrest on multiple warrants tied to Cleveland police. Cleveland officers ultimately took that suspect to the county jail after suburban officers made the stop.
   

3. Guardians get clutch hits, edge skidding Rockies (statenews.net) — Cleveland Guardians fans get good news as the team edged the Rockies 4–3 in Denver, with Jo Adell's bat and Tanner Bibee's strong start leading the way. The win, combined with a Texas loss, pulls Cleveland into a tie for the final American League wild-card spot and extends their winning streak to three games.
   

4. What we learned about the Ohio bank tax the Supreme Court left intact (limaohio.com) — An Ohio Supreme Court ruling out of Cleveland leaves the state's financial institutions tax formula in place, preserving more than $200 million a year in revenue. The decision rejects Dollar Bank's challenge without threatening the entire $1.3 billion collected over six years, keeping a small but steady piece of Ohio's budget intact.
