Description
Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Thursday, February 12th. Start your day with a heavy heart as we remember the brave souls lost in last week's tragedy west of downtown. Pilot Robert Skankey, a Marine Corps veteran who joined DPS in 2021, and trooper-paramedic Hunter Bennett, who started in 2022, died when their helicopter crashed during a chaotic shootout response to a domestic violence call. Suspect Terrell Storey, 50, faces serious charges including two counts of first-degree murder after unleashing a two-hour spree, firing from rooftops and endangering the neighborhood north of Route 66. Storey was shot by troopers but is recovering on a five million dollar bond. This hits close to home, reminding us how quickly everyday calls can turn deadly for those who protect us. Today, show your support at a Fraternal Order of Police barbecue fundraiser in Phoenix from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., with more coming Saturday right here in Flagstaff and Sunday in Kingman, helping families through this profound loss.
Shifting to brighter skies, grab your book and head to the Thursday Night Book Club at Flagstaff 365, diving into The Time Travelers Wife this evening, perfect for sparking lively chats over coffee. If youre tackling tougher topics, NACA hosts its Domestic Violence Group at 4 p.m., a weekly session offering real tools and community for healing and prevention, especially poignant after recent events.
Looking ahead to fun, downtown buzzes tomorrow with the 2026 Pluto Pub Crawl from 6 to 9 p.m. at Lowell Observatory, where you can meet Pluto experts, hop bars, and celebrate our starry citys cosmic legacy without a single ominous vibe. NAU Lumberjacks fans, keep eyes on tickets dropping today for the String Cheese Incident at Pepsi Amphitheater this summer, presale from noon to 10 p.m. And dont miss ongoing Flagstaff Big Read discussions on Mary Roachs Fuzz, exploring how we coexist with wild neighbors, with free books at libraries fueling community connections.
Whether youre honoring heroes, learning, or stargazing, Flagstaffs spirit shines through. This has been Flagstaff Local Frequency. Well see you tomorrow with more local updates.
