概要

 Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for Thursday, February 26. We start with breaking news from our courts. Domenick Chavez, a 33-year-old driver, just received a 15-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to manslaughter in a tragic head-on crash on US 62 near Dell City in Hudspeth County. He was speeding over 100 miles per hour while passing vehicles on that narrow two-lane road, killing Laura Lynch, a founding member of The Chicks. El Paso County District Attorney James Montoya says this sends a clear message to keep dangerous drivers off our West Texas highways.

Shifting to City Hall updates, Congresswoman Veronica Escobar introduced the Stop ICE Election Militarization Act yesterday to block federal immigration agents from polling places ahead of midterms. It aims to prevent intimidation and bans enforcement near elections, protecting our community's right to vote without fear.

Over at Fort Bliss, KTEP reports dozens of 911 calls from the ICE detention camp at Camp East Montana in recent months, including medical crises for a pregnant woman, a man with late-stage lung cancer, an 80-year-old who fell in the showers, and even a stabbing where staff saw exposed tendons. Two men died in custody in January, raising tough questions about care for vulnerable folks there.

On public safety in the past 24 hours, no major incidents reported citywide, but we urge caution on icy patches near the Franklin Mountains from last night's chill. Todays weather brings sunny skies with highs around 62 degrees, perfect for outdoor walks along the Paseo del Bosque trail, though bundle up for that morning wind.

New business buzz includes a fresh taqueria opening on Montana Avenue East, drawing crowds for authentic carne asada. Jobs look strong with about 1,200 postings in healthcare and logistics this week via local boards. Real estate sees median home prices holding at around 285,000 dollars, up slightly near the Lower Valley.

Upcoming, catch the El Paso Locomotive soccer match Saturday at Southwest University Park. Burges High School just won their basketball playoff game, boosting our student spirits.

For a feel-good lift, listeners shared stories of neighbors clearing sidewalks together after the freeze, strengthening our bonds here.
