Central Ohio Residents Urged to Conserve Water Amid Drought

Central Ohio residents are being urged to conserve water as the region struggles through a late-summer drought with limited rainfall.

On September 17, Del-Co Waterโ€”which supplies Delaware and Morrow counties as well as parts of Knox, Franklin, Union, Marion, and Crawford counties implemented a mandatory lawn-watering schedule to help reduce excessive water use.

According to spokesperson Jeff Kauffman, daily demand has surged to nearly 12 million gallons, nearly half of the systemโ€™s 25 million-gallon daily production. If water consumption does not decrease, Del-Co may impose a total outdoor watering ban or risk dangerous drops in water pressure.



Mandatory Watering Schedule (Effective Until October 1)

  • Odd-numbered addresses: Wednesday, Friday, Sunday
  • Even-numbered addresses: Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday
  • No watering allowed on Mondays

Businesses are exempt, and residents may continue watering gardens and landscaping.

Water Restrictions Across Central Ohio

Other utilities are also calling for conservation:

  • Aqua Water (Marion): Encouraging residents to delay laundry and dishwashing until full loads, shorten showers, and avoid outdoor watering.
  • Jefferson Township Water & Sewer District (Franklin County): Requesting voluntary water reductions during a $4.9 million treatment plant upgrade, which includes rehabilitating iron filters and building a new 300,000-gallon clearwell.

Tyler James Robinson Charged in Charlie Kirk Shooting

On September 10, 2025, conservative activist Charlie Kirk was tragically shot and killed during an event at Utah Valley University in a high-profile assassination. Authorities have charged 22-year-old Tyler James Robinson with aggravated murder, citing DNA evidence from the rifle and text messages Robinson allegedly sent to his roommate outlining his plans and motivations, reportedly driven by opposition to Kirkโ€™s political views.

Robinson, who had reportedly shifted toward left-leaning politics amid family ideological disagreements, turned himself in after his family identified him in surveillance footage. The case has sparked national attention, raising questions about the authenticity of the texts, the role of media coverage, and the broader concerns over political violence in the United States.

This incident highlights the ongoing debate around political polarization, extremism, and public safety at high-profile events, drawing scrutiny from legal experts, media outlets, and political commentators nationwide.

Anduril Starts Construction at Ohio Arsenal-1 Plant

Columbus, Ohio – Anduril, a leading defense technology company, has been quietly constructing its new Ohio weapons manufacturing facility, Arsenal-1, near Rickenbacker Airport in Columbus. The project, first announced in January, aims to produce drones and advanced aerial weapons, reinforcing the U.S. militaryโ€™s autonomous capabilities.

While Anduril initially targeted a groundbreaking in July, construction has been underway for several months, including land leveling for a second building. The company has not confirmed whether the planned July 2026 start date for weapons production in Pickaway County will remain on schedule.

Arsenal-1 represents the largest single-job creation investment in Ohioโ€™s history, promising 4,000 new jobs across engineering, logistics, talent, and communications roles. This surpasses Intelโ€™s Licking County project, which previously held the stateโ€™s job creation record. JobsOhio noted that it is common for businesses like Anduril to begin construction quietly without public ceremonies.

The Arsenal-1 plant is part of Andurilโ€™s initiative to strengthen American defense, manufacturing tens of thousands of autonomous weapons for the U.S. and its allies. The company is already supplying autonomous systems to nations such as Ukraine, with additional deliveries expected once the Ohio plant is operational. Australia recently purchased autonomous submarines from Anduril, although these will be built locally, while Arsenal-1 will focus on aerial weaponry.

Hiring for Arsenal-1 has already begun, with Andurilโ€™s Fury Launch Team undergoing six months of intensive training at the companyโ€™s headquarters in preparation for their roles in Columbus. The facility promises significant economic growth for the region while contributing to advanced military technologies.

Cincinnati Bengals Joe Burrow Suffers Turf Toe Injury, Could Miss Months

The Cincinnati Bengals will be without star quarterback Joe Burrow for a significant stretch of the NFL season after he suffered a turf toe injury during the first half of Sundayโ€™s 31-27 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Head coach Zac Taylor confirmed the injury during a Monday press conference, noting that Burrow will require surgery. However, no official timeline has been set for his return.

Medical experts say turf toe is a ligament injury at the base of the big toe caused by hyperextension, a condition common among football players. According to Dr. Ben Burkham, a sports medicine physician at OhioHealth, the injury can have a serious impact on athletic performance. โ€œItโ€™s similar to a sprained ankle, except the ligaments in the big toe are affected. The big toe plays a crucial role in running, cutting, and overall mobility,โ€ Dr. Burkham explained.

Reports indicate that Burrow may need up to three months of recovery following surgery. This timeline would put his possible return around Week 15 against the Baltimore Ravens or Week 16 versus the Miami Dolphins.

In the meantime, the Bengals (2-0) will turn to backup quarterback Jake Browning, as they prepare for their upcoming road matchup against the Minnesota Vikings (1-1) on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m.

Missing 3-Year-Old Autistic Boy Found Dead in Retention Pond

A tragic incident unfolded in Etna Township, Licking County, Ohio, after a missing 3-year-old boy was found dead in a retention pond on Sunday, September 15, according to the Licking County Sheriffโ€™s Office.

Deputies responded at around 1:35 p.m. to a call about the missing child near the 100 block of Gala Avenue off Lynns Road, south of U.S. Route 40. The boy, who was autistic and non-verbal, had last been seen in the Orchard Glen neighborhood.

Emergency crews, along with local residents, immediately launched a large-scale search. Despite their efforts, the 3-year-old boy was discovered in a retention pond at approximately 3:05 p.m.

Sheriffโ€™s deputies attempted CPR before the child was rushed to Nationwide Childrenโ€™s Hospital in Columbus by West Licking Joint Fire District medics. Sadly, he was later pronounced dead.

Authorities confirmed that the retention pond had been a primary focus of the search from the beginning. A victim advocate is now supporting the grieving family, while investigators continue to look into the circumstances surrounding the boyโ€™s death.

Hundreds gather in Dublin Vigil for Charlie Kirk | Turning Point USA Founder Memorial

Dublin, Ohio – Hundreds of residents came together Sunday evening in Dublin, Ohio, to honor conservative leader Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, who was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University earlier this week.

The vigil overwhelmed the Coffman Park Pavilion, with attendees overflowing into adjacent parking areas and streets. Among those honoring Kirk were Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost and State Senator Jon Husted.

At the gathering, families embraced, American flags fluttered, and the crowd joined in song and prayer for Kirkโ€™s loved ones and the nation. Guests used phone lights to brighten the darkness. Speakers praised Kirkโ€™s deep Christian convictions, his staunch defense of the First Amendment, and his commitment to engaging young people.

Senator Husted addressed the grief many feel: โ€œI know young people are hurting and they want to understand why something like this could happenโ€ฆ There are some people with hate in their heartsโ€ฆ We can disagree and be passionate about it, but do it with respect and love.โ€

Charlie Kirk founded Turning Point USA to promote limited government and low taxes on college campuses. Though not immediately successful, his bold critiques of liberal academia won him backing from prominent conservative funders. After Donald Trump secured the GOP nomination in 2016, Turning Point strongly supported him. Kirk also worked closely with Donald Trump Jr. during the campaign. He became a frequent presence on cable news, engaging the culture wars with fervor, and often praising the Trump administrationโ€™s agenda.

27-Year-Old Woman Killed in Head-On Crash on SR-682 in Athens

Athens, Ohio – A tragic head-on collision on State Route 682 in Athens Township claimed the life of a 27-year-old woman from Corning, Ohio, on Sunday morning.

According to the Ohio State Highway Patrol (OSHP), the crash occurred at approximately 9:18 a.m. near Wildwood Lanes. Monica Leigh Perani was driving a 2024 Nissan Sentra northwest when her vehicle was struck head-on by a 2016 Ram 1500 pickup truck that had crossed the center line.

Perani was pronounced dead at the scene. The other driver, a 69-year-old man from Athens, was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Authorities confirmed that both drivers were wearing seatbelts and alcohol is not suspected in the crash. The reason the pickup truck veered left of center remains under investigation.

Emergency personnel from the Athens County Sheriffโ€™s Office, Athens Police Department, Athens County EMS, The Plains and Athens Fire Departments, the Athens County Coronerโ€™s Office, and the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) responded to the scene.

FBI Director Kash Patel Criticizes Agents Over Handling of Charlie Kirk Shooting Investigation

FBI Director Kash Patel Criticizes Agents Over Handling of Charlie Kirk Shooting Investigation

In a high-stakes Thursday morning virtual meeting, FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly expressed sharp frustration toward his subordinates regarding their management of the investigation into the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk.

More than 200 FBI agents participated in the online call, initially revealed by The New York Times. An insider described Patelโ€™s rebuke of what he called โ€œMickey Mouse operationsโ€ โ€” one of the few moments he refrained from using profanity during the tense discussion.

Patel, joined by FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, stressed the urgency of capturing Kirkโ€™s killer. Patel specifically reprimanded Salt Lake City agents for delaying the release of a photo of the suspect by 12 hours, according to The Times.

Both Patel and Bongino flew to Utah on Thursday to oversee the ongoing investigation firsthand.

On Friday, authorities arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, the suspect in the shooting. Utah Governor Spencer Cox confirmed the arrest followed a tip from a family friend who reported Robinson had confessed or implied involvement in the incident to his relatives.

Charlie Kirk was shot at an event held at Utah Valley University on Wednesday. Patel acknowledged that the FBI initially took a suspect into custody on social media platform X the same day but later released him after questioning, a misstep that drew significant criticism.

Patelโ€™s handling of the investigation has been questioned by several MAGA supporters, raising doubts about his leadership capabilities at the FBI.

Conservative activist Chris Rufo criticized Patelโ€™s performance on X, writing, โ€œHe performed terribly in the last few days, and itโ€™s not clear whether he has the operational expertise to investigate, infiltrate, and disrupt violent movements threatening the peace in the U.S.โ€

Before joining the FBI, Patel worked as a federal prosecutor and served as chief of staff at the Department of Defense. His relatively limited law enforcement background has been a point of contention among some GOP officials.

Former Trump advisor Steve Bannon also expressed skepticism about the arrest, calling it โ€œnot great law enforcement workโ€ on his show Bannonโ€™s War Room. Bannon questioned Patelโ€™s decision to travel thousands of miles to Utah, interpreting the visit as largely symbolic.

Ohio State Buckeyes beats Bobcats 37 – 9

Columbus, Ohio โ€” The No. 1 ranked Ohio State Buckeyes extended their undefeated streak in the 2025 college football season with a commanding 37-9 victory over the Ohio Bobcats on Saturday night at Ohio Stadium.

Julian Sayin Shines with Three Touchdowns

Quarterback Julian Sayin led the Buckeyesโ€™ offense, throwing three touchdown passes to wide receivers Max Klare, Jeremiah Smith, and Carnell Tate. Sayinโ€™s precision and leadership helped Ohio State improve to 3-0 as they head into their first bye week of the season.

Defensive Battle Early, Explosive Finish

Both teamsโ€™ defenses held strong early on, making it a slow offensive start. Ohio State finally broke through late in the second quarter when Sayin found Klare for a 16-yard touchdown pass. The Bobcats responded early in the second half with quarterback Parker Navarro connecting on a 67-yard touchdown pass to Chase Hendricks, cutting the lead to four points.

However, Sayin and the Buckeyes answered with two long touchdown passes, a 47-yarder to Jeremiah Smith and a 49-yard score to Carnell Tate to secure the decisive win.

Jeremiah Smith Sets Record

Wide receiver Jeremiah Smith reached a major milestone in the game. On a 42-yard catch during the opening drive, Smith became the fastest Ohio State receiver ever to reach 1,500 career receiving yards in just 19 games, breaking the previous record held by Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Whatโ€™s Next for the Buckeyes?

After the bye week, Ohio State will travel to face Washington in their Big Ten opener on September 27, 2025. Fans can expect the Buckeyes to continue their strong start as they aim for a championship season.

Suspect Arrested in Charlie Kirk Shooting: Tyler Robinson in Custody

Authorities in Utah have arrested Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old man suspected of fatally shooting Charlie Kirk, the co-founder of Turning Point USA, during a public event earlier this week.


Murder Suspect , Tyler Robinson

The announcement was made during a press conference Friday by Utah Governor Spencer Cox, who confirmed that Robinson is now in custody and has been booked into the Utah County Jail. The charges include aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm, and obstruction of justice.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we got him,” Gov. Cox stated.

According to state officials, a family friend contacted the Washington County Sheriffโ€™s Office on Thursday night, revealing that Robinson had confessed or strongly implied his involvement in the fatal incident. A family member later confirmed to investigators that Robinson had expressed strong political opinions and had discussed his disapproval of Charlie Kirkโ€™s scheduled appearance at Utah Valley University.

Investigators say forensic evidence has been collected and is currently under analysis at FBI laboratories in Quantico. FBI Director Kash Patel added that the bureau has received over 11,000 tips from the public in connection with the case.

This tragic event continues to draw nationwide attention, especially among conservative political circles and college communities across states like Ohio, where Kirk was scheduled to appear later this fall.
