- A former Miami-Dade Police officer was sentenced to eight years in prison after fleeing the scene of a fatal accident. Aren’t cops supposed to know how the law works? [Local 10]
- Names are already being mentioned as to who will replace Rudy Crew. [Herald]. The most interesting are former schools chief Octavio Visiedo and Mercedes Toural, a Crew critic who seemed to be on the fast track before the big fella took the post.
- The NFL isn’t exactly thrilled with Chad Ocho Cinco’s new name. They say there’s some issues to work out before they officially recognize him by the new moniker. [WIOD]
- Hurricane Ike claims four lives in Cuba. [CBS 4]
