O'Fallon, Ill. community rallies around banned high school runner
SUMMARY: A head-on crash on I-44 in Eureka claimed the life of 62-year-old Lane Rocco, who drove east in westbound lanes, causing a multi-vehicle pileup including an 18-wheeler. Additionally, a family in O’Fallon, Illinois, is advocating for a change in the Illinois High School Association (IHSA) rules after their freshman son was banned from his cross-country team for participating in a charity race. The IHSA enforces strict eligibility rules to maintain equity, but the family argues that participation in charitable events should be exempt. An online petition for rule change has gathered over 1,000 signatures.
O’Fallon Township High School freshman Cole Deering loves running. He was devastated when his cross-country coach told him he was currently ineligible to compete because of a charity run Deering recently participated in.

Road workers ask for bond reductions in work zone assault case
SUMMARY: Three road workers are charged with assault, kidnapping, and armed criminal action following a September 26th incident in a work zone that involved an off-duty police officer. The workers claim the officer initiated the confrontation. During court proceedings, defense attorneys argued for bond reductions, asserting that racial language was irrelevant to the assault, while civil rights leaders push for hate crime charges. The judge will rule on the bond requests soon; current amounts are $250,000 for the worker accused of racial slurs and $100,000 for the others. The hit-and-run driver involved in the case remains unidentified.
