AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Public Safety & Health: RIDOH and DEM lifted the Lake Mishnock harmful algae bloom advisory in West Greenwich, but kept warnings in place for Wenscott Reservoir (North Providence) and Oak Swamp Reservoir (Johnston), urging residents to avoid contact and not drink untreated water or eat fish until further notice. Local Accountability: An independent review says Providence’s response to the Brown University mass shooting was “highly effective,” while also flagging communication and access problems, including delayed camera access and radio failures. State Politics: Rhode Island House Speaker and AG Neronha are pressing Rep. Julie Casimiro to resign after reports she made a South Carolina home her primary residence while continuing to collect her RI salary and work remotely. Community & Sports: Rhode Island Rams open their season Friday night against Merrimack, and Westerly’s youth football league is set to kick off Sunday. Human Interest: Taylor Swift donated $50,000 to a Connecticut mother injured in Rhode Island after she risked her life to help teenagers after a crash. Crime & Courts: Jurors in the Lindsay Clancy trial resumed deliberations, but did not reach a verdict before the weekend.
