The annual Rick Ross Car and Bike Show is happening on Saturday, and according to organizers and police, this year the event will run smoother than ever. Joyce Bolds doesn’t have a problem with the car and bike show anymore because organizers and police have made significant changes to make it better for the community. “Well, the first year it was not really planned very well, but then the last three years it’s been just fine for our neighborhood,” Bolds told Channel 2’s Tyisha Fernandes.

DOUGLAS COUNTY, Ga. — A pair of Douglas County parents are accused of leaving their toddler in a backyard shed with no supervision. The child wasn’t wearing clothing, and police say he didn’t have running water for days. A neighbor told Channel 2’s Tyisha Fernandes that he believes he knows what sparked the investigation about two weeks ago. When Fernandes got to the neighborhood on Thursday, she couldn’t find the shed. “The structure is gone. It’s not there anymore,” neighbor Matthew Govoni said.
