Tucson Local Pulse: Missing Person Search Intensifies, Roadrunners Host Ontario Tonight
Published 4 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Friday, March 27. We start with breaking news from overnight: a Tucson Police motorcycle officer was injured in a crash early this morning and taken to Banner University Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries. Our thoughts are with him and his family as he recovers.
Shifting to public safety, the search continues for 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, missing from her home near East Speedway Boulevard since February. Her daughter Savannah Guthrie shared new details yesterday on NBCs Today show, noting the back doors were propped open, blood on the front step, and a yanked-off camera. The family has upped their reward to one million dollars for information. If you know anything, call Tucson Police right away.
Over at City Hall, Pima County Supervisors are probing Sheriff Chris Nanos amid ongoing concerns, but no oust decision yet. Meanwhile, the Arizona Senate voted yesterday to repeal the Cesar Chavez holiday, impacting local farmworker commemorations.
On a brighter note, our Tucson Roadrunners are back at Tucson Arena tonight, hosting first-place Ontario in a key matchup after their hot Canadian road trip. The Arizona Wildcats baseball team is heating up too, with improved offense and bullpen strength, plus freshman Jack Lafflam shining in his best start yet.
Weather-wise, mild skies this morning with highs near 78 degrees around Sabino Canyon, perfect for outdoor plans, though gusty winds could stir dust near I-10. Expect partly cloudy evenings with a low of 52.
Jobs are steady, with about 15,000 openings posted locally last week on sites like Indeed, many in healthcare near Tucson Medical Center. Real estate sees median home prices around 350,000 dollars, up 5 percent, drawing buyers to midtown neighborhoods.
New business buzz: a fresh coffee spot just opened on Fourth Avenue, while that old bookstore on Speedway is closing after 20 years. Check out upcoming events like the Gem Show wrap-up markets this weekend at the Convention Center and a free concert series starting tomorrow at Armory Park.
Salpointe Catholic High Schools boys soccer team defended their state title yesterday with a solid win. And for a feel-good story, local volunteers planted 200 trees along the Rillito River Path, boosting our green spaces for everyone.
