RNN BOWLING GREEN 05/27/26          A BARREN COUNTY GRAND JURY HAS INDICTED A 24-YEAR-OLD GLASGOW MAN FOR THE MURDER OF A PREGNANT WOMAN AND HER UNBORN CHILD. AUTHORITIES SAY BRANDON LEE BOND SHOT 22-YEAR-OLD AVA WOODCOCK INSIDE A VEHICLE DURING A DOMESTIC DISPUTE IN APRIL, THEN FLED FROM POLICE. WOODCOCK AND HER UNBORN BABY BOTH DIED THE NEXT DAY. BOND IS BEING HELD ON A TWO-MILLION-DOLLAR CASH BOND.          WARREN COUNTY FIREFIGHTERS RESPONDED TO A DRAMATIC CRASH TUESDAY AFTER A VEHICLE LEFT THE ROADWAY AND ENDED UP ALMOST ENTIRELY SUBMERGED IN A WATER DETENTION POND. EMERGENCY CREWS RUSHED TO NASHVILLE ROAD NEAR THE WOODBURN FIRE STATION AFTER A PASSERBY SPOTTED THE VEHICLE. OFFICIALS SAY THE DRIVER MANAGED TO ESCAPE THE SINKING CAR SAFELY BEFORE RESCUE TEAMS ARRIVED ON THE SCENE.          BOWLING GREEN’S RIVERFRONT PARK IS MOVING CLOSER TO REALITY AFTER CITY COMMISSIONERS APPROVED A NEARLY ONE-MILLION-DOLLAR CONTRACT WITH SCOTT, MURPHY AND DANIEL TO MANAGE THE PHASE TWO CONSTRUCTION.           THE UPCOMING ONE-ACRE DESTINATION PLAYGROUND FEATURES AN IMMERSIVE CAVE THEME WITH TWO-STORY SLIDES. BECAUSE THE SITE SITS ON A FORMER LANDFILL, THE CITY IS USING A SPECIALIZED MANAGEMENT FORMAT TO NAVIGATE THE COMPLEX TERRAIN. PHASE TWO BUILDING WORK IS SLATED TO BEGIN THIS SEPTEMBER.
