AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Heat & Safety: A heat advisory is in effect across metro Atlanta and North Georgia through Saturday night, with heat indexes near 106 as Labor Day events ramp up, including Dragon Con and Atlanta Black Pride; officials also say rain chances stay modest. Public Safety & Crime: Gwinnett police say at least one person died after a train struck someone near Bankers Industrial Drive; separately, Atlanta police cleared up a “kidnapping” report after confirming a 1-year-old was taken with permission. Local Quality of Life: Residents near the Lindbergh-area Creek Walk Connector are raising alarms about trash and makeshift camps, asking for cleanup plus services for people experiencing homelessness. Tech & Policing: Gwinnett fired and charged three officers over alleged Flock license plate reader misuse, citing new auditing and stricter access rules. Sports (Atlanta): The Braves opened a key series in Philadelphia with a 5-2 win behind Chris Sale and a late Mauricio Dubón homer, pushing the NL East lead to five games. Atlanta Events: Dragon Con’s 40th anniversary continues downtown as thousands pour in, with organizers urging hydration and breaks in the heat.
