Two brothers, Carlos and Alexander Cruz-Santana, are locked in a courtroom showdown after a violent March 2025 incident in Bristol’s crime-ridden Cambridge Park apartments—Carlos allegedly slammed his car into a 23-year-old man, then his brother brandished a gun at the victim, who later identified them. Witnesses heard screeching tires and saw Carlos pointing a weapon before fleeing. Carlos claims the victim ambushed them with a gun, and Alexander sold it—Carlos later bought it back and turned it over. Alexander now faces tampering charges for allegedly disposing of the weapon, while Carlos, arrested in November, is charged with assault and evading responsibility. Both are set for court on August 13th.

A former busser at Union League Café is suing Fusion Restaurant Group, alleging he was sexually assaulted by a coworker on his last day — and that the company ignored a years-long pattern of harassment, including being punched, called racist slurs, and shoved in front of managers, all leading to his firing and severe emotional trauma.

Tick season is exploding, with Lyme disease cases hitting record highs since 2017. Experts estimate hundreds of thousands of infections annually, often with delayed symptoms and long-term consequences if untreated. The bacteria spreads through infected ticks, which need 24–48 hours of attachment to transmit disease — so early detection is crucial. Warmer winters and urban sprawl are expanding tick habitats, making encounters more likely. While rashes are common, they’re not always present, and tests aren’t always reliable early on. Thankfully, a short antibiotic course usually works — and a promising new vaccine showed 70% effectiveness in trials. Until then, stay safe: use repellent, wear long sleeves, check for ticks after outdoor time, and consult your doctor if you’ve had a long attachment.
