 Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Thursday, December twenty fifth, and we are glad to be with our listeners.

We start with public safety. Fort Worth police arrest a suspect in a mid December capital murder on Wildwood Circle in southwest Fort Worth. Fox 4 reports officers take thirty year old Kareem Hardin into custody in connection with the shooting death of twenty four year old Lawrence Homan outside an apartment complex there. Police say it appears to be an isolated incident, and they still look for a second suspect.

In a separate case, Fort Worth police say a person reported missing in early December is found in a shallow grave in a wooded area of Denton County on the Fort Worth side. According to CBS Texas, detectives arrest twenty three year old Alexander James Nicholas on a homicide charge and say more arrests could follow. We keep the family in our thoughts this morning.

From City Hall, we keep an eye on the job board at fortworthtexas.gov. The city is currently listing around a hundred openings, including an administrative services coordinator role in Financial Management Services, with applications open into early January. Those city jobs mean more stable paychecks and benefits for our neighborhoods.

Across the broader job market, Indeed lists more than one hundred twenty thousand openings in the 76137 area alone, from warehouse work along North Beach Street to healthcare and office roles near Loop 820. There are also about forty part time stocker positions across big box stores and groceries, and Wells Fargo is hiring a part time bilingual teller down on East Alta Mesa Boulevard in south Fort Worth.

In real estate, local brokers say 2025 closes out with Dallas Fort Worth home prices roughly flat compared with last year, but inventory up by about a third. One Fort Worth focused group, Momentus Real Estate, notes that buyers now often see three or four options in a school zone instead of just one, which gives families a bit more breathing room in neighborhoods from TCU and Bluebonnet Circle out to Keller and Alliance.

Weather wise, we are mild and dry today across Tarrant County. Temperatures sit in the upper 40s this morning and climb into the low 60s by afternoon with light north winds. Skies stay mostly sunny, which is good news for anyone traveling on I 35W, I 30, or heading through the Mixmaster downtown. Tonight we cool back into the 40s, and we hold this quiet, cool pattern into the weekend.

On the culture front, our holiday calendar is still busy. CultureMap Fort Worth highlights Christmas in the Garden at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden, with a giant illuminated Texas flag and more than a thousand dancing bluebonnet lights, running on University Drive through early January. Up in the Stockyards, the Rodeo Rink keeps ice skating going under the covered pavilion near Exchange Avenue, with Cowboy Santa still making appearances. And CBS Texas is replaying this years GM Financial Parade of Lights, which lit up downtown along Houston and Commerce streets.

Looking ahead, the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce lists holiday gift wrapping at West plus Stone, and continuing performances of The Nutcracker, plus local coffee and networking events at Riverside Coworking off Belknap Street for folks wanting to plug into the small business scene.

In sports, New Years Eve brings country artist Parker McCollum to Dickies Arena for a big concert that doubles as a lead in to more TCU hoops and upcoming rodeo season at Will Rogers. High school teams across Fort Worth ISD and surrounding districts now shift from football to district play in basketball and soccer, with several programs reporting strong preseason tournament finishes.

For our feel good story today, volunteers across the city spend this week serving meals and handing out coats from east Fort Worth churches along Rosedale to community centers on Lancaster and Northside Drive. Local nonprofits report hundreds of families receiving toys and warm clothing thanks to neighbors stepping up.

We thank our listeners for tuning in and remind you to subscribe so you never miss a daily check in on our city. This has been Fort Worth Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
