Columbus Audubon is removing invasive plants in Calamus Swamp thanks to a $175,000 grant from the Ohio EPA and the hard work of volunteers who remove plants by hand.

Kenny Fisher was sworn in Monday. He is a U.S. Marine Corps and Army Reserve veteran and was previously a sergeant with the Circleville Police Department.

A record-breaking drought did not stop Bob and Jo Liggett from Pickaway County from growing another record-breaking pumpkin.

Retired Ohio State Highway Patrol Colonel Paul Pride will examine Circleville's police department. The city just hired a new safety director and is trying to pass a new safety levy this fall.

The agreements state that the city will stop its investigation into allegations of misconduct in exchange for Baer and Davis’ voluntary retirements.

Since July, Circleville has fired an officer, placed its police chief on paid leave and fired its safety director just seven days after he was hired.

Mayor Michelle Blanton allegedly hired Steven Wilkinson in secret before firing him seven days later just days after the city placed Police Chief Shawn Baer on paid leave for a misconduct investigation.

The Office of the Circleville City Law Director confirmed to ÐÇ¿ÕÎÞÏÞ´«Ã½ that Chief Shawn Baer was placed on leave.

In two separate settlements, the city of Circleville is giving Jaddarius Rose $225,000 and former Circleville Police Officer Ryan Speakman $40,000 and an opportunity to purchase the K-9 Serj for $1.

A K-9 police dog's attack on a Black motorist in Circleville is resurrecting questions about race relations and law enforcement tactics.
