Good morning, Denton.

Yesterday, police responded to a road rage incident near the intersection of Oak Drive and Country Lane when a man shot a woman multiple times — the victim was taken to Medical City Denton in stable condition while the suspect was arrested and investigators called for witness tips.

Texas Ballet Theater reached its first union contract with the American Guild of Musical Artists after nearly two years of talks that began in 2023, marking the first time a North Texas dance company organized with a union in over 40 years.

The contract gives dancers benefits + yearly raises, a 50% pay increase for new dancers, paid parental leave, and health and safety protections.

The U.S. is ramping up efforts today to fight the New World screwworm, a parasite that experts warn could cost Texas cattle producers over $11 billion a year and push beef prices to record highs.

Local ranchers say the USDA will build a new fly factory in Mexico to help stop the threat (this action follows a recent 30-day cattle import ban).

Trinity Railway Express will keep running today after lawmakers did not pass bills to cut transit funding by 25% for the train linking Fort Worth and Dallas.

Officials say the decision avoids a major loss in funding—helping commuters reliably travel across North Texas.

Today runoffs are held from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for Denton Council Member District 3 between Margie Ellis and Suzi Rumohr and for Lewisville Council Member, Place No. 4 between Lonnie Tipton and Joshua Chanin — polling locations are set by a joint election plan with Dallas County.
