Good morning, Conway. Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 19th of September.

COMMUNITY NEWS

BUSINESS NEWS

  • Spud Love—a food truck that serves creative twists on potatoes and fries—has been a local favorite for five years under owner Artie Lovelace. The truck is located at 811 Walnut Street and will attend the Downtown Food Truck Festival on Sunday, Sept. 20 in Downtown Little Rock.  THV 11

CULTURE NEWS

  • UCA Public Appearances will present The Band Perry: A Homecoming at 7 p.m. on Oct. 9 at Reynolds Performance Hall—bringing the popular country group back for a special campus event.  Log Cabin Democrat
  • Forty-five years ago, an airman dropped a wrench socket at the Titan II Launch Complex north of Damascus, which pierced a missile fuel tank and led to an explosion that injured 21 people and killed one airman on September 19. The explosion forced evacuations and ended the Titan II Missile Program, and Southside Bee Branch High School students now honor the event by naming Livingston Lane—one that will soon have a historical marker installed along Highway 65—ensuring the disaster is remembered.  ABC7

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • The Conway School Board is facing a lawsuit for alleged FOIA violations after critics say it held closed-door executive sessions—with discussions on financial matters and legislative audits instead of limited personnel issues.
