Conversely, the boys meet was so close that Oak Park and Farmington ended up tying for first place with 133 points each. Heading into the 4x400, Farmington had just a two point lead over Oak Park in the standings. Oak Park was right behind 3:26.35 while Farmington did its job by finishing third in 3:35.51. Oak Park senior Amari Harris won both the 110 hurdles (16.35) and the 300 hurdles (42.46). The Oak Park girls had eight first-place finishes out of the 16 events contested.

Voters will head to the polls on Tuesday to cast their votes in municipal elections, choosing mayors and village presidents in multiple Chicago suburbs.

There, a 30-year-old man, who police said holds a concealed carry license, was with two other people who were being pistol-whipped by a 26-year-old man. It escalated when the 26-year-old then began to shoot the gun at the 30-year-old, who pulled his own gun and shot the 26-year-old in the buttocks, police said. The 30-year-old showed up at West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park, where he was also in police custody. No charges have been announced.

Charged with murder were Matthew Givens, 23, of the 17200 block of Lorenz Avenue in Lansing, and Cortez Hudson, 23, of the first block of West Superior Street in Oak Park, according to Hanania. The two also were charged with attempted carjacking in an attack during the police pursuit that ended in their capture after they couldn’t start a Tesla car they were trying to make off with, Hanania said.

But on Thursday night in the district finals at Detroit Renaissance, Donnelly saw something he had never seen before: A four-point-play buzzer-beater. Before the ball cleared the net, one of the referees blew his whistle to call a foul on the Oak Park player who defended the shot. In the end, Jesuit (9-0) was able to hold off Oak Park (5-8) for a 68-64 win and avoid the upset. “Oak Park worked harder than we did, they played better than we did and the played hard,” Donnelly said. Romulus Summit Academy 73, Grosse Ile 34Orlando Lovejoy led Summit with 21 points, 5 assists and 7 rebounds.

But with crime on the rise in places such as Oak Park, Chicago and other cities nationwide, questions have been raised by police chiefs and elected leaders about slashing police budgets, some of whom argue better training and other reforms are the answer.

OAK PARK, Mich. – In partnership with Henry Ford Health System, the city of Oak Park is providing COVID-19 vaccine appointments at the city’s Municipal Complex. Officials said registration is open to Oak Park residents 65 years of age and older (with or without health issues) as well as residents between 50-64 years of age who have health issues. Once they qualify, residents will receive a phone call or text to confirm their appointment. “We’re doing what we can to return Oak Park to the safe and healthy community we all know and love. If you’re eligible, please take advantage of this opportunity with our great partner HFHS,” read a statement from City Manager Erik Tungate.

Firefighters from Engine 117 pulled Lemon from the back of the home, but he was taken to West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park, where he was pronounced dead, the department said.

On Wednesday, Welch, a Madigan ally, said another way for lawmakers to convince voters to support changing the tax system is to approve changes to the state’s government ethics laws to improve trust in public officials. That includes looking at changes such as making economic interest disclosures more transparent and barring legislators from working as lobbyists at other levels of government, he said.

No snow was recorded Wednesday at the city’s weather station at O’Hare International Airport, stopping just short of breaking a 78-year-old record for most days with snow in a row. But more snow fell Thursday, as Chicago, suburban transportation departments and state road crews continued to clean up following this week’s 36-hour snowstorm and the area looked forward to a gradual thaw starting this weekend.

Michigan ended Wednesday’s National Signing Day with its best possible outcome. It inked three defensive tackle prospects, including two who were previously committed to other schools, to finish with the 10th-ranked 2021 recruiting class in the country. On the latest episode of the Wolverine Confidential podcast, MLive’s Ryan Zuke and Aaron McMann discuss why adding Jersey City (N.J.) St. Peter’s Prep four-star George Rooks, Oak Park four-star Rayshaun Benny and Garland (Texas) Lakeview Centennial three-star Ikechukwu “Ike” Iwunnah was crucial for Michigan, which didn’t sign any true interior lineman during the early December window.

Forecasters had warned that most of the 5 to 8 inches expected in the Chicago area from a storm system that blanketed much of the Midwest would fall before 3 a.m. Tuesday, but many areas only saw a few inches. The total snowfall varied by north and south locations across the metro area, Castro said.

After De La Salle won a historic playoff matchup, 26-20, against Oak Park in overtime on Saturday in the Division 2 semifinals, Rohn was nearly speechless, albeit for just a moment. Heading into overtime tied 20-20, Oak Park had its first possession spoiled when De La Salle senior linebacker Jayden Conklin stripped the ball and recovered the fumble all on his own to set up De La Salle with a chance to win on the next possession. It’s made its mark on De La Salle football for sure.”Giving De La Salle a nice boost was the fact it was playing on its school grounds for the first time in history. Although De La Salle built a brand new stadium, it was not intended for football use as part of an agreement with the city of Warren. “You’ve heard all year long about Brady Rose, Matt Koziak and Mona Shores football.

The 2020-21 school year has been a unique one for football players, whose shortened season started, then stopped and then started again. To make up for the odd year, the Michigan High School Athletic Association allowed every team to make the playoffs. The Oak Park Knights weren’t expected to make it to playoffs, but the team is two wins away from a state title. “It’s a great feeling, for real, to come back and be able to help the team,” Rayshawn said. The De La Salle Pilots, had a 2-4 regular season team peaking at the right time.

Rohn said he would support a proposal that would allow all teams to qualify for the state tournament. I think if people knew they could get in no matter what their record was, people would play each other more. “It’s the one (team) sport where you have to qualify for the playoffs,” said MHSAA communications director Geoff Kimmerly. As a result, they think some teams had an advantage in advancing through the playoffs. It also creates the opportunity for teams to schedule as tough a schedule as they want.

OAK PARK, MI – A 29-year-old man is dead after he was shot multiple times while sitting in his vehicle outside an apartment complex on Monday, Jan. 11, WXYZ Detroit reports. Police have not released the victim’s identity and have not said whether there are any suspects in the case, the TV station reports. Oak Park police responded on Monday night to a report of multiple gunshots in Village Green Townhomes of Oak Park. Upon arrival, they found the 29-year-old man sitting in the driver’s seat of a parked vehicle with multiple gunshot wounds.

Three guns were recovered from the car, police said, adding that two of the suspects were taken to West Suburban Hospital in Oak Park “for what appeared to be shortness of breath.”

They are both in the same hospital with COVID-19 and had to wait for a couple days to get a bed. The couple are emblematic of the crisis deepening at an alarming rate in California, where hospitals are being stretched to their limits as the virus explodes across the state. Health officials now fear the increase will only be compounded through Christmas and New Year’s. In many places, health officials say, people tired of wearing face masks and staying away from others are simply disregarding suggested precautions. Britain’s health secretary said this week that the new variant was believed to be linked to the rapid surge of COVID-19 cases in south and southeastern England.

Nebraska is considered a frontrunner, but Michigan State, Florida State, Minnesota, Oregon, Cincinnati, Purdue, Central Michigan, Arkansas, Toledo and Iowa State are all in consideration.
