📰 News we're reading
• Uncle and nephew arrested in Tri-State, more than 80 kilos of suspected cocaine seized (local12.com) — Federal authorities say a Fairfield home was central to a major southwest Ohio drug investigation that led to the seizure of more than 80 kilograms of suspected cocaine, plus guns and cash. A Cincinnati man and his nephew from Fairfield now face serious federal charges, underscoring how large-scale trafficking can reach directly into local neighborhoods. 
• Is that check real? Scam targets Tri-State wedding vendors (wcpo.com) — A Fairfield wedding officiant is warning local vendors after nearly falling for an overpayment scam involving a bogus check that arrived far larger than the agreed deposit. She spotted the red flags in time and reported it, and now urges Fairfield-area wedding and service providers to verify clients, wait for checks to fully clear, and never refund overpayments until banks confirm funds are legitimate.
