Good morning, Syracuse.

Third graders from Dr. King School marched to City Hall Monday to ask Mayor Walsh for a grocery store in their food desert area—where the closest full store is over a mile away.

They said the local convenience store sells only junk food—making it hard for families to get fresh produce.

Lynzina Sutton, a parent who hit a teacher at Lincoln Middle School in February, was sentenced on March 24th to two years in prison and two years of supervision at Onondaga County Court as part of a plea deal that dropped extra charges.

A Syracuse man was sentenced to nearly six years in federal prison after his distinctive underwear and prescription bottles linked him to a January 11 gas station robbery in Salina—he was also ordered to serve three years of supervised release and pay restitution to the victims.

Syracuse police are reviewing public and private camera footage to determine if arson started the 26-hour fire that heavily damaged the former Maria Regina College building after a person was seen on campus before the blaze, and city officials say redevelopment plans for low-income senior apartments will move forward.

Hundreds of family members and friends gathered at Farone and Son Funeral Home — many wearing green and given shamrock pins — to mourn 11-year-old Jeremiah Huff, who was shot a week ago in Syracuse as authorities charged his father with murder in connection with his death and that of his father’s girlfriend.

Syracuse University named twelve seniors as the 2025 Syracuse University Scholars—its highest undergraduate honor recognizing academic excellence and community service.

A Universitywide faculty committee chose the Scholars based on coursework, research, creative work, and personal achievements.

Residents at McKinney Manor face relocation as the housing authority plans to demolish the complex for redevelopment starting July 1.

Tenants report ongoing maintenance issues and unclear moving plans — many remain confused and frustrated about their future.

Between March 9 and 15, Onondaga County recorded 17 property transactions ranging from $1,000 to $4,000,000—sales include a gas station in Clay and several commercial, apartment, and vacant land deals in Syracuse and surrounding towns.
