Good morning, Greensboro.

On Wednesday, August 25th at about 1:36 p.m., responders arrived at a cardiac call on the 1500 block of McConnell Road and found 35-year-old Meyling Mercedes Carrion-Ruiz dead—officials treat the death as a homicide while the investigation continues.

UNCG faculty member John Borchert is launching a project that uses 3D scanning to create digital replicas of art so fragile works can be safely viewed at the Weatherspoon Art Museum.

He will share his plans and discuss new ways to mix tech with art during a free event on Aug. 28 from 6 to 7 p.m.—offering Greensboro a fresh look at art in a digital age.

State law now lets JetZero contractors at Greensboro airport count as full-time employees because the project is designated transformative—helping the airport meet its employment requirements.
