Bipartisan group of senators talk expanded gun background checks, red flag laws

WASHINGTON - A bipartisan group of senators is considering how Congress should respond to the horrific shooting of 19 children and two teachers in Uvalde, Texas, restarting gun control talks that have broken down many times before.Aware of the difficulty of their task, the Democrats and Republicans say they hope to find agreement on legislation that could help reduce the number of mass shootings in the United States. The Uvalde shooting came 10 days after a gunman opened fire in a racist attack killing Black people at a Buffalo, New York, supermarket.Senators have narrowed the discussion to a few ideas, some of them based on legislation they have been working on for years, such as expanded background checks or red flag laws that keep guns away from people who could do harm.

Crisis dogs bring comfort to Buffalo first responders after mass shooting

BUFFALO, N.Y. - A group of certified crisis counselors and specially-trained dogs traveled to Buffalo, New York, this week to offer support and comfort to those impacted by the mass shooting at a supermarket, in which 10 people were killed and three others were injured. The Tri-State Canine Response Team, based almost 400 miles away in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, arrived in Buffalo on Monday with five crisis response handlers and dogs to stay through Friday, "with the possibility of staying longer as needed." Four of the teams traveled from New Jersey, while one team came north from Florida. The nonprofit, all-volunteer team aims to offer comfort to those suffering from a personal condition or crisis in the community by "utilizing the human-canine bond and its power to heal." Its work is supported by community donations. In Buffalo, grief, shock, and anger have plagued the community after a White, 18-year-old gunman entered a Tops Friendly Market on Saturday and started shooting with a rifle, killing 10 Black people and wounding three other victims. A document circulated widely online seemingly outlined the suspect’s racist, anti-immigrant and antisemitic beliefs.

Families frustrated by New Jersey school district abruptly relocating teachers, staff

CHERRY HILL, N.J. - Families in the Cherry Hill School District have grown frustrated that teachers have been abruptly relocated to other schools without explanation. Students and parents packed into a Cherry Hill School Board meeting Tuesday night to demand answers following the sudden transfer of their beloved teachers to other district schools. "Since we have gotten no reason, I think it’s punitive. I think it’s personal," one student said. District sources say nine teachers were moved out of Cherry Hill High School East and a handful of others moved from Cherry Hill High School West. Several staff changes were also made in three district middle schools."I feel like just switching around for the sake of switching around teachers, they don’t realize how much it effects our family in the history department, the family of teachers and all the established relationships with the students," a student said. Cherry Hill School District Superintendent Joseph Moloch said some level of teacher reassignments happen every year, but he admitted that more are taking place this time around. School officials would not talk about specific teachers, citing personnel issues and privacy, but said they don't make the moves lightly. Advertisement"We take a look at each one of the teachers and where can his or her talents make the most impact or make continued impact," Moloch said.

Southeast Delaware County School District to receive $94K to upgrade school security

SHARON HILL, Pa. - The Southeast Delaware County School District will receive more than 94-thousand dollars in state grant money to upgrade school security systems.Elected officials from the county announced the funding on Tuesday during a press conference at the Academy Park High School in Sharon Hill. The money will be used to upgrade camera and radio equipment across the district, which District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer says he has seen an "influx of crime." In January 2021, the high school was locked down because a student brought what appeared to be a gun to class. Then, in August, an 8-year-old was shot and killed near the football field by police officers who thought they were being shot at by young men carrying guns. "Why they have access to firearms and why they think having a firearm is a way to settle a dispute is something we have to stop," said Stollsteimer.MORE HEADLINES: With more than 4,300 students in the district, new cameras can be expected in the high school, elementary school, and kindergarten center.

Citizens call for Briarcliffe Fire Company to lose certification over alleged racism caught on camera

DARBY TOWNSHIP, Pa. - Nearly a month after the Briarcliffe Fire Company was suspended for the alleged use of racial slurs on a recent virtual meeting, community members gathered to discuss the future of the department. The Darby Township Board of Commissioners on Wednesday held a special meeting that included many vocal community members who said they no longer trust the department. There was a call to remove the department's certification, but the board decided that they will not make any final decision until the District Attorney's Office is done with its investigation.Briarcliffe Fire Company was suspended after a Jan. 27 virtual meeting between township fire companies and commissioners about a potential consolidation. According to a letter from the Goodwill Fire Company obtained by FOX 29, following the end of the meeting, a group of people remained on the call. The letter says there was then a group of people that could be heard discussing the meeting using foul language, and identifies those involved in the conversation as members of the Briarcliffe Fire Company. A Delaware County fire company has been suspended for 30 days after members of the company allegedly uttered racist and derogatory comments following a virtual meeting late last month.The conversation, which lasted an hour and 45 minutes, allegedly included racial slurs when discussing members of other fire companies and township residents.One of the Briarcliffe Fire Company members was also accused of making a joke about, Fanta Bility, a young girl who was killed in a shooting in Sharon Hill last fall."It’s outright racism,", NAACP Local Chapter President Sheila Carter said.
