Lorain Community Hospital weighs starting an air ambulance using a leased helicopter after a study by Executive Director Paul Balcom. The board favors the plan if resources align, aiming for a 40 to 50 mile coverage area within a 15 to 20 minute flight. The crew would include a pilot, paramedic, and trauma nurse, with lease costs around 300k to 400k and a helicopter price between 200k and over 1 million.

Luck panel urged to retry 1967 murder case
Cuyahoga County prosecutors appealed to an Eighth District panel to overturn Judge Kilcoyne’s dismissal of Catherine Luck’s murder and robbery charges in the 1967 case. Luck, 41, had confessed to the Tietjen killing, while defense argued the 15 year gap violated due process. Prosecutor Marino pressed that delaying trial harmed no one and that a murderer should not get away.
