"Fire at Sand Plant, Hit-and-Run Arrest, Cattle Expo, and Arts Acquisitions - Fort Worth Local Pulse"

  • サマリー

  • Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Tuesday, April 15, 2025.

    We start with breaking news: a major fire broke out at Silver Creek Materials, a sand and gravel supplier in Tarrant County, on Sunday afternoon. Thick smoke was visible across the city, from the Stockyards to Lake Worth. Firefighters from multiple agencies have been working tirelessly to contain the blaze. Reports suggest the fire may involve old tires used in land reclamation projects, meaning it could smolder for weeks. Residents are urged to avoid the area while the efforts continue.

    In other updates, the Fort Worth Police Department has taken two individuals into custody related to a hit-and-run incident outside the Rhinestone Saloon on Ellis Avenue. A convertible struck a woman, leaving her in critical condition, and fled the scene only to return later. Both occupants of the vehicle are blaming each other for driving. Investigations are ongoing.

    Turning to local events, thousands gathered this weekend for the 2025 Cattle Raisers Convention and Expo in Fort Worth, headlined by U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins. This premier event featured a 280-exhibitor tradeshow, educational sessions on ranching, and a lively dinner and dance. Fort Worth once again proved itself the heart of Texas ranching culture.

    There’s also exciting news from the arts community. The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth has acquired two works from the Dallas Invitational Art Fair. These acquisitions continue to enhance Fort Worth’s standing as a cultural center in the state.

    On the jobs front, the convention’s success highlights the ongoing strength of the agricultural sector and its importance to our local economy. Meanwhile, the real estate market shows no signs of slowing down, with demand for homes near the medical district and growing North Fort Worth neighborhoods continuing to rise.

    In community news, Fort Worth schools are celebrating victories as the Paschal Panthers soccer team clinched the district championship over the weekend. Congratulations to the team and their coaches for their hard work and dedication.

    For music lovers, the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra continues its spring concert series with a performance this Friday at Bass Hall, and tickets are still available. The Stockyards will also host live country music every night this week, perfect for a family outing or date night.

    Today’s weather comes with a mix of sunshine and gusty winds. Highs are expected to reach 78 degrees. Be mindful if you’re outdoors, as the breeze may stir up some allergens.

    Finally, a feel-good story to brighten your morning: volunteers at Trinity Habitat for Humanity completed another home this weekend for a local family in need. It’s a reminder of the incredible community spirit here in Fort Worth.

    This has been Fort Worth Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
