Good morning, Dayton.

United Way of the Greater Dayton Area received a $47,906 check on April 29 from Montgomery County after county employees participated in voluntary payroll deductions and fundraising events— the funds will help the nonprofit expand its community services.

Attorneys for the family of 25-year-old Christian Black said a video from his last moments at Montgomery County Jail shows he was tased and placed in a headlock after being restrained—actions that led the Coroner to rule his death a homicide while 10 jail employees are on paid administrative leave and the family seeks criminal charges.

Ohio voters will decide on Issue 2 on May 6, which would let local communities keep using funds to fix roads, water lines, and sewers — local engineers warn that its failure could lead to fewer capital improvements across Dayton.

The measure is seen as a vital extension of past bond efforts to keep our infrastructure strong.

Dayton Children’s broke ground on a new urgent care facility in west Dayton on Friday—part of a community effort to expand on-demand pediatric care.

The facility, located on Germantown Street, will open in summer to serve local families.
