SUMMARY: A Maryland man, Andrew Passy, is frustrated after his stolen car was found by DC police but he wasn’t notified until months later. The car was stolen from his home in November and recovered by DC police on November 24, but Passy was only informed in January. The vehicle sat in an impound lot for weeks, accumulating $20 daily storage fees, resulting in a $2,000 bill. Passy claims DC police failed to notify him as required.

Richmond collaborating with nonprofit to bring food pantry to city's East End
SUMMARY: Richmond’s Annie Giles Community Center, currently serving 40,000 meals monthly, is set to establish a food pantry with nonprofit Underground Kitchen Community First to address local food desert challenges. Councilwoman Ellen Robertson emphasizes the need for accessible fresh food due to high poverty levels, as commercial grocery stores avoid the area. The pantry aims to offer fresh food boxes tailored for residents’ dietary needs, along with educational resources on healthy cooking. Community First director Michael Sparks is leading this initiative, supported by local partners. The project, backed by Mayor Danny Aula, is expected to launch by summer’s end, promoting better health through nutrition.
