With millions already earmarked for courthouse repairs, officials are now exploring whether new construction and redevelopment of nearly seven acres near Lakeside, Ontario, and the convention center could reshape this key part of downtown.
   

2. Woman arrested for using her car to try and strike man: Shaker Heights Police Blotter (cleveland.com) — Recent Shaker Heights police reports detail several incidents involving Cleveland residents, including an alleged assault with a car on Lee Road and a domestic violence case linked to a protection order.

3. WWII 'Doc' takes flight in Cleveland, reunited with veteran who saved it from the desert (cleveland19.com) — A restored WWII B-29 bomber nicknamed "Doc" is visiting Burke Lakefront Airport, giving Cleveland-area residents a rare chance to see and even ride in the historic aircraft.
