SUMMARY: Inspectors identified food handling and storage issues at several local restaurants. Pure Vegan Cafe in Durham received an 82, down from 91.5, for improper food storage, unclean equipment, and incorrect expiration dates. Randy’s Pizza in Morrisville was rated 86 (down from 94.5) due to employees failing to wash hands after handling personal items, inadequate food temperatures, and fly infestations. Chanello’s Pizza in Garner scored 88.5 (down from 91) after inspectors found expired ingredients, unclean baking trays, and a sticky fly ribbon above the prep sink. Overall, health standards were not adequately maintained across these establishments.

SUMMARY: Robinson County Sheriff Bernes Wilkins reported heightened security during prisoner Michael McLen’s court hearing. McLen, who pled guilty to the kidnapping and murder of 13-year-old Hana Aguilar and was sentenced to life in prison, made two escape attempts. He first tried using a homemade handcuff key but was stopped by deputies. Returning to prison, McLen grabbed a deputy’s gun during a struggle before being subdued with pepper spray. Eyewitnesses noted his courtroom demeanor seemed insincere, raising questions about potential additional charges from the escape attempts.

Michael Ray McLellan admitted to kidnapping 13-year-old Hania Aguilar from her driveway and then killing her and disposing of her body. The crime happened in November 2018. On Friday, November 22, 2024, he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Investigators say McLellan tried twice to escape from his prison guards — before and after the hearing.

SUMMARY: Thirteen of North Carolina’s 16 congressional members are urging the Pentagon to establish an onRamp Hub in the state during the next Defense Innovation Unit expansion. North Carolina, which hosts five military bases and contributes significantly to the state’s economy with 540,000 jobs and $48 billion in gross state product, aims to enhance its defense innovation ecosystem. In a letter to the Defense Innovation Unit’s deputy director, lawmakers highlighted the state’s academic strengths and ongoing partnerships with small businesses. The push for the hub is led by Senators Ted Budd and Thom Tillis, with support from several U.S. Representatives.
