COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A Fulton man was charged with a pair of child sex crimes on Tuesday after authorities say he raped a child.

RolandNazarowski, 30, was charged with first-degree child molestation and first-degree statutory rape of a child younger than 12 years old. He is being held at the Callaway County Jail without bond. A court date has not been scheduled.

The probable cause statement says law enforcement was notified on July 9 of a possible sexual assault that occurred earlier in the summer. The child victim allegedly told authorities they were molested and raped by Nazarowski and described the assault.

Nazarowski alleged he was in the same bed with the victim and “did not like Victim One sleeping with him because of ‘things like this,’” court documents say. Nazarowski allegedly told authorities during an interview that the assault could have happened when he was asleep, court documents say.

The commission saying that the extension is to allow full discussion of the topic. City staff will also be meeting with the owner of the facility in the interim, hoping to find another solution where both sides get what they want out of the deal.

Bannock County releases proposed budget for 2026, asks for public input

KIFI on August 19, 2025

Sam Ross

POCATELLO, Idaho (KIFI)– Bannock County has released their draft budget for the upcoming 2026 fiscal year, which could see lower taxes for residents; county commissioners are asking people to review the proposed budget and provide feedback.

The proposed fiscal year 2026 budget comes to a grand total of $102.8 million (almost $1 million less than the fiscal year 2025 budget) and covers an array of county operations including court services, law enforcement, and improvement projects.

An estimated 33% of budget funding comes from property taxes (around $33.7 million), with the difference made up through service fees, grants, and reserves––this amount would translate to around $348.85 per $100,000 of taxable value for Bannock County residents, a $15 decrease in county property taxes year over year.

Bannock County Commissioners are asking for public input on the proposed budget, which can be found here. The commissioners are also hosting a public hearing on the proposed budget on August 26 at 11 a.m. in the Commissioners’ Chambers of the Bannock County Courthouse.

Karina Bazarte

EL CENTRO, Calif. (KYMA, KECY) – The first group of El Centro firefighters are back after 14 days of fighting two fires in California.

The El Centro Fire Department (ECFD) says 16 firefighters returned home Sunday after assisting with battling the Gold Fire in San Bernardino County and the Gifford Fire in San Luis Obispo County.

ECFD says it was a tough journey, but they’re glad they were able to help.

“Usually the main difference in a fire when you talk about going from the difference between one assignment to another. You’re assignment are pretty much going to be the same. If you’re on a type six, you’re going to have the same type of work. If you’re on one fire or the other one, the main difference is the terrain you’re going on and fuel types.”

Eduardo Ainza, Battalion Chief, El Centro Fire Department

As of Tuesday, the Gold Fire is currently 85% contained and has burned 1,036 acres. At the same time, the Gifford Fire is 95% contained and has burned 131,589 acres.

CrowdStrike Falcon software approved for consideration

KYMA on August 19, 2025

Madeline Murray

YUMA COUNTY, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – During the Board of Supervisors meeting, they approved for consideration the renewal CrowdStrike Falcon, which has provided Yuma County with advanced threat detection, response, and protection against cyberattacks since 2021.

The renewal cost is $160,108.73, with coverage through August 6, 2026. 

The Yuma County Board of Supervisors approved to renew software that uses artificial intelligence to neutralise cyber-threats.

The security needs of Yuma County are focused on prevention, and renewing this new software will help keep online records safe.

Jonathan Lines, Vice Chairman of the Yuma County Board of Supervisors, said, “It’s a threat intelligence based platform that prioritizes, and is able to act swiftly and respond to every single threat almost, in a ground zero setting, immediately as it’s detected.”

The platform Crowdstrike Falcon prioritizes prevention and rapid response to threats.

Lines says it’s important to safeguard the entire system, which includes the Recorder’s Office, elections, and the Assessor’s Office.

“I think it was july last year, there was a breach, but 97% of the effected computers or sensors were back online, I believe, in less than a week,” says Lines.

Lines says this software detects any direct threats, but they still ask everyone to be cautious online explaining, “We still ask people not to click on suspicious links, and all of that, and that is still a threat.”

We also asked the community how they prevent cyber hacks online.

One local, Amanda Sandoval, says in order to prevent online cyber attack, they avoid anything suspicious.

“Don’t open any links. If you see any emails, don’t click on them…you have to read the top of the bar first, if you don’t read that, then it’s easy,” Sandoval expressed.

Once the final details of the budget for the software are approved, they can deploy it.

Santa Barbara Board of Supervisors Approve Modoc Path Construction Contract 

KEYT on August 19, 2025

News Channel 3-12

Below is a press release from the Santa Barbara County Public Works Department regarding construction contract approval for Phase II of the Modoc Multi Use Path.

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – On August 19, 2025, the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors approved the construction contract for Phase II of the Modoc Multi Use Path. This $6.5 million project will complete an 8-mile-long Class I (multi-use) path network from Isla Vista to Arroyo Burro Beach and the City of Santa Barbara. It will also provide a more comfortable experience for bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages and abilities. The new path will extend the existing Obern Trail from the western Encore Drive intersection to the intersection of Via Senda, where it will connect to the recently completed Phase I multi-use path section. The Board of Supervisors approved Phase I in 2022, and construction was completed in August 2023.

Second District Supervisor Laura Capps said, “This beautiful path will allow more people to bike, roll and stroll from one part of our community to another — safely. It takes a village to make these projects come to life. I’m grateful to all the partners for sticking with this project and believing in the end goal.”

Modoc Road is a high-speed minor arterial in unincorporated Santa Barbara County with speed limits of 45 mph, no continuous ADA-compliant pathway, and Class II bike lanes primarily used by experienced bicyclists. This project provides a safety benefit by creating a pathway where bicyclists and pedestrians are separated from motor vehicles. This project also provides several new pedestrian crossings for residential neighborhoods to cross Modoc Rd. in order to reach the Modoc Path, Modoc Preserve and Obern Trail. This project is identified in the Eastern Goleta Valley Community Plan, County Active Transportation Plan, and the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments (SBCAG) Regional Active Transportation Plan.

The project is funded by the County General Fund ($1.1 million), a State Active Transportation Program. Grant ($2.6 million), the County Service Area 3 Special District ($1 million), Measure A ($1.3 million), and the State Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account ($500 thousand). Construction is expected to begin this fall. For more information on this project, visit www.countyofsb.org/modocmup
