There was plenty of good news unveiled by the Benedum Airport Authority during Wednesday’s meeting. The good news was for both the flying public as well as for the nearly completed new terminal building and related projects.

Although work began Monday for Bridgeport’s new City Manager Patrick B. Ford, Thursday saw the “official” start of his five-year contract as the city’s top administrator.

Several months after acquiring a massive building in Charles Pointe, the development’s newest tenant is moving ahead with an equally massive renovation.

What seemed like a small tip from the community appears to have busted a crime ring in Bridgeport, Harrison County, and beyond that has been taking place for up to the last six months, Chief Mark Rogers confirmed today.

Long before Patrick Ford ever thought about being Bridgeport’s next city manager, he was already well versed in the tradition of Indians’ football. For a native of Kansas who graduated from the University of Virginia that may seem odd.

The Market Place at Bridgeport is about to be home to another business and this time it is a locally owned operation.

The first business opened back in 1965. The next major expansion came in 2000. The latest incarnation of the business is set to come in December.

There is a problem at Wayne Jamison Field. As one might expect, it has nothing to do with the Bridgeport High School football team.

Bridgeport will be looking to get back to the state tournament this coming Saturday when the Indians take part in the Class AAA Region II cheerleading championship that will be held at Lincoln High School.

Local arrests as the result of a crime ring in Bridgeport, Harrison County and beyond could take place as early as today, according to Police Chief Mark Rogers and Detective Jason Carey.
