Good morning, Decatur.

A Mother's Day celebration was held in DeKalb County for families of disabled children—local organizers provided support and activities to honor the special day.

Police have not solved the murder of a DeKalb man found shot to death in the front seat of his car on May 11 — they said he is connected to a November 2024 shooting.

DeKalb County Commissioner Michelle Long Spears will host the State of DeKalb Animals Address on May 16 from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Emory Conference Center Hotel — located at 1615 Clifton Road NE — where experts including keynote speaker Cole Thaler will discuss challenges connecting animal shelter overpopulation and housing issues.
