  • Résumé

  • Good morning, this is Columbus Local Pulse for March 11, 2025.

    We're starting with some breaking news from last night. A juvenile pedestrian was seriously injured after being hit by a vehicle in northwest Columbus. The incident occurred around 9 PM, and police are still investigating the circumstances. Our thoughts are with the young person and their family during this difficult time.

    In other news, the Columbus police department has been busy. Their recent Operation Unity resulted in 12 felony arrests, the recovery of 8 firearms, and the seizure of significant amounts of fentanyl and methamphetamine. This operation addressed 87 community complaints and impounded 10 vehicles, showcasing the department's commitment to public safety.

    On a brighter note, all 10 of the "Morse Road Miracle Pups" have found their forever homes after a long recovery. These puppies captured hearts across the city, and we're thrilled to see this happy ending.

    In city developments, the Arnold Sports Festival wrapped up over the weekend, bringing a boost to local businesses. Arnold Schwarzenegger himself was in town, inspiring attendees with his presence and words of encouragement.

    Looking at the job market, a recent report suggests that while 2024 ended strong for Ohio, 2025 might face some challenges. However, education and healthcare sectors are expected to provide stability. For those seeking work, remember that the Ohio Means Jobs center on East Broad Street offers training for in-demand positions.

    In real estate news, the Columbus housing market remains competitive. While prices have stabilized somewhat since last year, demand for homes in desirable neighborhoods like German Village and Clintonville remains high.

    Culturally, we're excited about the upcoming Creekside Blues & Jazz Festival returning to Gahanna this summer. It's a great opportunity to enjoy live music and support local artists.

    In sports, the Ohio State women's basketball team has earned a No. 3 seed in the Big Ten Tournament. They'll be playing their first game this Friday night, so let's show our support, Buckeye fans!

    Weather-wise, we're in for a blustery day. Expect gusty winds throughout Columbus, with temperatures reaching the mid-50s. It might be a good day to secure any loose items in your yard.

    Looking ahead, tomorrow is Ohio Military Signing Day. The state will be honoring students committing to military service in a ceremony at the Statehouse. It's a wonderful way to recognize these young people's dedication to our country.

    And finally, a feel-good story from our community. The Ohio History Center recently hosted a "Night at the Museum" event for families, bringing history to life in a fun and interactive way. It's great to see our cultural institutions engaging with the community like this.

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