    Feb 20 2025
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Thursday, February 20, 2025. We're starting off with some breaking news from the Virginia Beach Police Department. Following a comprehensive investigation, officers identified Michael Shippy, a 41-year-old Virginia Beach resident, as the suspect in a fatal crash involving a pedestrian on Bonney Road. Shippy was taken into custody without incident on February 7 and charged with two counts of Felony Hit and Run, Possession of a Schedule I/II Substance, and Driving Under the Influence[1].

    Moving on to weather, it's a chilly morning in Virginia Beach. Today's forecast shows overcast clouds with temperatures ranging from 41 degrees to 48 degrees. This winter weather has had a significant impact on activities and events in the area. Just yesterday, Central Virginia experienced snowfall from a winter storm, causing multiple crashes and flight cancellations. While Virginia Beach didn't see much snow, it's always a good idea to check road conditions before heading out[2][5].

    In sports news, the VHSL Class 6 Region A Indoor Track and Field Championship took place at the Virginia Beach Sports Center from February 15 to 17. Local athletes competed in various events, showcasing their talents and dedication. It was an exciting event for our community, and we're proud of all the participants[3].

    On the job market front, Virginia Beach Parks & Recreation is hosting a job fair on February 27. This is a great opportunity for those looking to join the team and contribute to our city's recreational activities. We encourage everyone interested to attend and learn more about the available positions[1].

    In community events, we're looking forward to the upcoming activities in our city. While there aren't any major events scheduled for today, we recommend checking out local listings for any last-minute additions.

    In local school achievements, we want to highlight the recent VHSL Class 6 Region A Indoor Track and Field Championship. Our local athletes performed exceptionally well, and we're proud of their hard work and dedication.

    For today's crime report, we want to remind everyone about the recent arrest of Michael Shippy in connection with the fatal crash on Bonney Road. The Virginia Beach Police Department continues to investigate this incident and encourages anyone with information to contact them at 757-385-4606[1].

    Finally, we want to share a feel-good community story. Despite the cold weather, our community came together to support local athletes at the VHSL Class 6 Region A Indoor Track and Field Championship. It's moments like these that remind us of the strength and unity of our community.

  • Virginia Beach Prepares for Major Snowstorm, Arrest in Fatal Hit-and-Run
    Feb 18 2025
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for February 18, 2025. We're starting off with some critical updates as our area prepares for a major snowstorm. Officials are reflecting on past storms to ensure better outcomes this time around. The Virginia Beach Public Works Department is stocked with over 1,200 tons of salt, anticipating heavy use depending on snowfall amounts[1].

    Local resident Bryan McClellan, who has lived in Virginia Beach since the '70s, recalls the heavy snowfall of 2010 as one of the worst he’s witnessed. He emphasizes the importance of staying home and cautions against venturing out on hazardous roads. The Virginia Department of Transportation has begun multi-day snow removal operations, pre-treating major interstates and roads since Monday. Cities across Hampton Roads are assessing what went wrong during the last storm, with Chesapeake highlighting icy conditions that hindered road-clearing efforts and Virginia Beach feeling more equipped this time around[1].

    Moving on to other news, the Virginia Beach Police Department has made an arrest in a fatal hit-and-run case. Michael Shippy, 41, of Virginia Beach, was taken into custody on February 7 and charged with two counts of Felony Hit and Run, Possession of a Schedule I/II Substance, and Driving Under the Influence. This incident occurred on January 31, 2025, in the 3700 block of Bonney Road, resulting in the death of Thomas Moore, 63, of Virginia Beach[2].

    In local business news, we don't have any major openings or closings to report today, but we encourage our listeners to stay tuned for updates on how the snowstorm might affect local businesses.

    Looking at the weather, today is expected to be clear with temperatures ranging from 41 to 48 degrees Fahrenheit. However, the snowstorm is predicted to hit later today, with up to a foot of snow expected. Residents are advised to exercise caution and stay indoors during the storm[3].

    In community events, we recommend checking local listings for any cancellations due to the weather. For now, there are no major events scheduled for the next few days.

    In local school news, we don't have any specific achievements or sports results to share today, but we'll keep you updated on any developments.

    On a community note, we want to remind everyone to stay safe and look out for each other during the storm. If you have any neighbors who might need assistance, please don't hesitate to lend a hand.

    In today's crime report, aside from the arrest in the hit-and-run case, there are no other significant incidents to report from the past 24 hours.

  • Virginia Beach Sports, Voting Limbo, and Community Updates
    Feb 15 2025
    Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for February 15, 2025. We're starting off with some exciting sports news. The Indoor Pre-Nationals track and field meet is happening right now at the Virginia Beach Sports Center, hosted by Norfolk State University. If you're interested in catching the action live, you can stream it on FloTrack, with coverage continuing today at 10:00 AM ET[1].

    Moving on to local government updates, the Virginia Beach voting system remains in limbo after the state Senate rejected a bill to formalize the city's 10-1 voting system in its charter. This decision leaves the future of Virginia Beach's voting structure uncertain, especially in a crucial election year. The city implemented the 10-1 system in 2022 after a federal court ruling, but the city council declined to request a charter amendment, partly due to an ongoing lawsuit[4].

    Let's talk about the weather. Today, we're expecting partly cloudy skies with temperatures ranging from 41 to 48 degrees Fahrenheit. This should make for a pleasant day to enjoy outdoor activities, including the track and field meet at the Virginia Beach Sports Center[2][5].

    In other news, our local tech scene is booming, with new businesses and opportunities emerging. We'll be keeping an eye on these developments and bringing you updates on how they impact our community.

    Looking ahead to the next few days, there are several community events worth noting. We encourage you to check out local listings for more information on what's happening around Virginia Beach.

    On the education front, we're always proud to highlight achievements in our local schools. Keep an eye out for updates on school sports results and academic achievements.

    Finally, a quick note on public safety. We're not aware of any significant incidents or arrests in the past 24 hours that would impact daily life in Virginia Beach.
