Sheriff Kevin McMahill is warning protestors to behave themselves when participating in “No Kings” protests against the Trump administration this weekend.

🚨 Bus Driver Not Charged in Student Death
Police continue to investigate a collision that led to the death of a young girl when a school bus clipped the handlebar of the 12-year-old’s bicycle.
