    Nov 24 2024
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Sunday, November 24, 2024.

    We're starting with breaking news from the past few days. A tragic incident occurred at the Oceanfront and 16th Street, where a male swimmer was found washed ashore on Saturday night, and two others were reported missing[1]. Our thoughts are with the families affected by this incident.

    Moving on to the job market, there haven't been any major hiring announcements or significant layoffs reported recently. However, it's worth noting that the parent company of Oyo, a hotel operator based in India, is acquiring the budget motel chain Motel 6, which could have implications for local employment in the hospitality sector[1].

    In real estate news, there haven't been any notable commercial or residential property sales reported recently. However, we do have an update on the Williamsburg Premium Outlets, where an underground fire caused a partial parking lot collapse, according to the James City County Fire Department[1].

    From city hall, we have an update on the recent elections. Thirteen candidates from Districts 1, 3, 5, 7, and 8 ran for five available city council seats this year, and the winners have been announced[5]. We'll be keeping an eye on how these new council members will shape the future of our city.

    Weather-wise, today is expected to be cooler and windy, with showers possible. This might impact outdoor activities and events, so be sure to check the forecast before heading out[3].

    In new business activity, we don't have any major openings or closings to report. However, it's worth noting that Popeye's and Wendy's are offering special deals on chicken meals, which might be a great option for a quick bite[1].

    Looking ahead to community events, there aren't any major events scheduled for the next few days. However, we do have an update on the recent debates and forums hosted by Hampton Roads community groups ahead of the November 5 elections[1].

    In local school achievements, William & Mary defeated Furman 34-24 at Zable Stadium in Williamsburg, Virginia, on September 21, 2024[1]. Congratulations to the team on their win.

    In crime news, a Virginia Beach police officer was involved in a shooting near Town Center, and two suspects were charged in the shooting of Landyn Davis[3]. We'll be keeping an eye on these developments and providing updates as more information becomes available.

    Finally, we have a feel-good community story. Hundreds turned out to Judge Eileen Olds Courtyard Park on Friday to welcome back a former local resident, showcasing the strong sense of community in our city[1].
