Here's your local news at a glance for Saturday, the 6th of September.
Good morning, Jupiter.
🚨 Crime
Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office reached an $18-million settlement with 17-year-old Timmie Lee Knox Jr. after he was paralyzed when a deputy shot him with a taser during a vehicle stop in 2021 — the settlement did not involve any admission of wrongdoing by PBSO or the deputy.
🎓 Education
Three local school districts saw enrollment declines during a state-mandated 11-day count, with Palm Beach County losing 6,270 students and Indian River and Okeechobee counties losing 225 and 200 respectively.
The declines are tied to rising living costs, demographic shifts and family empowerment scholarships, and each district adjusted staffing to address the changes.
🏥 Health
Endico has recalled frozen peas and carrots — along with mixed vegetables — after tests found Listeria in products sold in Florida and other states; the items sold from July 18 to Aug.
4 should not be consumed and must be returned for a refund.
