- There was an apparent attempt to disrupt the voting process at the Hamilton County Board of Elections Saturday morning. As the doors opened at the county's Early Voting Center, a poll worker opened an envelope with white powder, and part of the complex was evacuated.
Just in the last couple of weeks, both the Ohio Secretary of State and the Kentucky State Board of Elections were delivered or almost delivered white powder envelopes. There have also been similar deliveries in states like Oklahoma, Louisiana, Delaware and to several members of Congress. But if you stopped by to vote early in Norwood Saturday, nothing would have seemed out of place.
"I'm always so proud of the bipartisan team here at the Board of Elections. Everyone remained calm. They followed our evacuation procedures. They waited for the all-clear. They support each other," said Sherry Poland, the director of the Hamilton County BOE.
Poland said her team discovered the white powder...

- A postal worker was arrested after he allegedly stole packages from a Rhode Island postal service facility, reports WJAR.
The Rhode Island Attorney General's Office says 54-year-old Aubrey Dante was caught on surveillance video opening the packages and taking their contents. The months-long investigation began after packages containing valuable items like guns, jewelry, coins and trading cards went missing from the Providence facility. The thefts occurred between April and September 2026.
"It's concerning, very concerning and scary," said Providence resident Pam Michailides. "That's scary that [firearms] are just coming and going and nobody's noticing."
During a raid of Dante's home Wednesday, investigators also found stolen handguns and nearly 80 pounds of marijuana, cocaine, meth and other drugs.
Dante is now facing 26 criminal counts, including six counts of larceny of a firearm, four counts of possession of a stolen firearm, five ...

- Bengals running back Chase Brown used Cincinnati’s bye week to step away from football, recharge and spend time with his young son before the team begins a pivotal stretch of AFC North games.
Brown said the break offered a rare chance during the season to be fully present with his family.
“It was a nice week to just reset,” Brown said. “I got to spend a ton of time with my son.”
Brown said his son is currently fascinated by riding his small bike over curbs and obstacles, making the week away from the facility far from inactive.
“He’s good clay,” Brown said, borrowing a phrase once used by a special teams coach. “He’s pretty athletic, and his coordination is ahead of schedule.”
The third-year running back said he largely disconnected from team group chats and football during the break, with one exception: watching his brother play for Atlanta. Brown said he did not watch another NFL game that Sunday.<...

- Description
- A Hamilton County jury found Rodney Hinton Jr. guilty on all charges Friday in the death of retired sheriff’s deputy Larry Henderson, rejecting Hinton’s insanity defense after more than two days of deliberations.
Jurors convicted Hinton of murder, felonious assault and reckless homicide. He was immediately taken into custody following the verdict and is scheduled to be sentenced at 9 a.m. Nov. 16.
Henderson was working a special traffic detail for the University of Cincinnati’s graduation on May 2, 2025, when Hinton struck him with a vehicle. Henderson died from his injuries.
The crash happened hours after Cincinnati police showed Hinton body-camera video from the shooting death of his son, Ryan Hinton. The defense argued Hinton was legally insane at the time of the crash, while prosecutors maintained he intentionally drove at Henderson.
The case went to the jury after a 10-day trial that centered on Hinton’s mental state and ...

- Description
- A growing number of pet owners are delaying or skipping veterinary appointments as costs rise, but an expert warns that putting off care can lead to bigger bills and more serious health problems later.
A recent report found that two in five U.S. pet owners have skipped or postponed veterinary care, in part because of cost. Integrative veterinarian Dr. Gary Richter said the price of care has climbed in recent years, partly reflecting advances in treatment and diagnostics.
“It’s a real issue,” Richter said. “It’s unquestionable that the cost of veterinary care has increased significantly.”
Richter said prevention can be one of the most effective ways for owners to manage expenses while protecting their pets’ health. A nutritious diet, regular exercise, routine dental care and limiting access to objects pets could swallow can all help reduce the risk of a costly emergency.
Dental care is among the most important — and com...

- Todd Benzinger, the former Cincinnati Reds first baseman who caught the final out of the franchise’s 1990 World Series victory, has died. He was 63.
The Reds announced Benzinger’s death Thursday. No cause of death was released.
Benzinger spent three seasons with Cincinnati from 1989 through 1991 and played a key role on the Reds team that led the National League West from start to finish before sweeping the Oakland Athletics in the 1990 World Series.
He secured the final out of that series, a moment that made him part of one of the most celebrated teams in franchise history.
“Todd will forever be remembered by Reds fans for catching the final out of the 1990 World Series, but those of us who had the privilege of knowing him will remember so much more,” Rick Walls, executive director of the Reds Hall of Fame and Museum, said in a statement. “Todd remained close to the Cincinnati community and was a tremendous friend to the Re...

- CINCINNATI (WKRC) — Vice President JD Vance urged Ohio voters to support Republican candidates in several high-profile races during a Wednesday campaign rally in Greater Cincinnati, while dismissing concerns about a controversial ad targeting the Democratic candidate for governor.
Vance appeared at the Sharonville Convention Center alongside Republican gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and Republican U.S. Sen. Jon Husted, who is seeking a full term.

The vice president framed the Nov. 3 election as a choice between Republican policies on taxes, border security, crime and energy costs and the agendas of Democratic candidates. He repeatedly criticized Landsman, Democratic governor candidate Dr. Amy Acton and former U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, who is challenging Husted.
