Good Saturday morning — mid‑March and we’re inching toward spring, but Northeast Ohio still has plenty happening. Grab a coffee and here’s what you need to know from the last 24 hours. Emergency crews in Macedonia answered a serious call on March 13 when a roof fire broke out at the Avenue at Macedonia Care and Rehabilitation Center. The Macedonia Fire Department, aided by mutual‑aid resources, evacuated 92 residents and credited high winds with worsening conditions on the roof as crews worked to contain the blaze. Officials say the incident was brought under control; we’ll update you if more information about cause or damage is released. In Summit County, Sheriff Kandy Fatheree is leading a local push against scams in partnership with the National Sheriffs’ Association. The Akron‑based announcement frames fraud prevention as a high‑priority public‑education effort; deputies and partners are urging residents to slow down, verify requests for money or personal information, and use available resources to report suspicious activity. It’s a timely reminder to check messages and calls carefully before acting, especially for older neighbors and anyone handling household finances. On a lighter note for sports fans, Cleveland Sports Talk ran a throwback video celebrating Kyrie Irving’s 57‑point game against the San Antonio Spurs — a performance that turned 11 years old this week. The clip is a reminder of some of the memorable nights at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse and a little nostalgia for Cavs supporters this weekend. There were no new community bulletin board postings in the last 24 hours; if you have a notice you’d like shared, you can submit it through our usual channels and we’ll consider it for the next briefing. That’s the roundup for this morning — we’ll keep tracking these stories and others across Northeast Ohio so you don’t have to; stay tuned and stay informed.
