Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Firefighter Injured As Early Morning House Fire Displaces Family Of 11 In Lawrenceville A Lawrenceville home caught fire early Wednesday after a lightning strike, displacing a family of 11 and injuring a firefighter. Fire crews arrived at 2:08 a.m. to find flames in the attic. While battling the blaze, the roof collapsed, injuring a firefighter who was treated and released for non-life-threatening injuries. The family safely evacuated after spotting the fire, and the Red Cross is assisting them. Firefighters controlled the blaze by 2:30 a.m., using multiple units to prevent further damage. Officials stress the importance of fire escape plans and offer community education resources for safety. STORY 2: Gwinnett police launch summer public safety initiative The Gwinnett County Police Department launched a summer safety initiative on May 20 to boost officer visibility, reduce crime, and enhance community engagement. Key efforts include increased patrols in high-traffic areas like malls and parks, daily crime suppression operations, and visible cruise lights on patrol cars. A major focus is community engagement through weekly Chief’s Walks, where residents can meet police leaders, share feedback, and build trust. The initiative aims to ensure a safe, proactive summer while fostering stronger relationships between officers and the community. STORY 3: Gwinnett celebrates grand re-opening of homeless services center and shelter Gwinnett County celebrated the reopening of an expanded homeless outreach center in Norcross, operated by the Latin American Association (LAA) and HTS. Originally opened in 2021 but closed due to flood damage, the center now offers comprehensive services, including a youth drop-in center, a shelter for young mothers, food, clothing, and hygiene facilities. Staff, many with lived homelessness experience, provide case management, housing navigation, and life skills training. The center aims to address rising homelessness, especially among working families and youth, with a focus on stabilizing lives. The $1.2M annual operation relies on grants and donations to sustain its mission. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: Kemp touts proposed Georgia Power rate freeze Georgia Power's plan to freeze rates for three years, announced this week, was praised by Gov. Brian Kemp as beneficial for customers and Georgia's economic growth. The agreement, pending Public Service Commission (PSC) approval, cancels a planned rate case and follows three rate hikes in recent years due to rising electricity demand. Critics argue the freeze won't prevent increases tied to fuel and hurricane recovery costs, which the PSC will address next year. Kemp dismissed claims of political timing, emphasizing the freeze's role in attracting businesses. A public hearing is set for June 26, with a vote on July 1. STORY 5: Philadelphia Winn Chapter DAR awards Good Citizens and American History Essay Contest Winners Nine Gwinnett County high school students were honored by the Philadelphia Winn Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) for their citizenship and writing skills. The DAR Good Citizen Award recognized seniors for dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism, while the American History Essay Contest awarded students for essays on historical topics judged for accuracy, originality, and grammar.
