• A pedestrian was killed in one of the southbound lanes near the Geneva Avenue Interstate 280 on-ramp early Monday, KRON4 reports.
• Shrey Purohit, the driving force behind Ingleside Gallery and many other art ventures, was granted a visa so he can continue plying his craft in the city, he wrote in his newsletter this week.
• Neighbors who deal with flooding because of the city's antiquated combined stormwater and sewage system are not too happy with the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling.
