Windsorites prepare to watch Ford Fireworks amid explosive temperatures
The Ford Fireworks will illuminate the sky over Windsor and Detroit on Monday, but it could be a hot one for Windsorites taking in the show. Monday's show marks the 67th edition of the Ford Fireworks. The display itself is set to begin at 10:08 p.m. and last approximately 24 minutes, according to the Windsor Police Service. But roads around the riverfront, including Riverside Drive and Ouellette Avenue and McDougall Street north of Wyandotte Street, will close at 6 p.m. as related festivities get underway. Vehicles parked in the restricted areas labelled "no-parking zones" will be ticketed and towed at the owner's expense, police warned on Facebook. Transit Windsor is offering free bus services for the evening. There will also be park n' ride shuttle buses from Devonshire Mall between approximately 6 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Shuttles will return to the mall from a pickup location across from the Windsor Arena on McDougall Street near Wyandotte Street W. immediately following the fireworks until approximately 12:15 a.m. or until all passengers in line have boarded a bus back to the mall. Transit Windsor is asking people to bring non-perishable food donations for its Stuff the Transit Windsor Bus initiative. The Windsor Police Service is encouraging parents and guardians to take the following steps to keep children safe Monday evening: Take a photo of your child at the start of the evening in the clothing they are wearing. Ensure your child has identification (if age-appropriate) and knows a parent or a guardian's phone number. Choose a designated meeting spot ahead of time in case you become separated. If your child becomes lost, report it immediately to the nearest police officer. Environment Canada is forecasting an extreme heat event beginning Sunday and extending into Tuesday with highs Monday expected to reach 35 C to 37 C. "I would say it's going to be fairly dangerous to be outdoors, especially for long durations of time," said meteorologist Steven Flisfeder. He advised people to stay hydrated, seek out shade as much as possible, and have a cool place to go. High humidity can also aggravate medical conditions such as asthma, he added.

Windsor police say 6th person arrested in Crown Royal whisky heist
Social Sharing Windsor police have arrested another person in connection to the theft of $500,000 of Crown Royal whisky last month. Police said Tuesday they arrested a 54-year-old on Friday in the 5500 block of Lassaline Avenue. He's been charged with possession of stolen property for the purposes of trafficking and conspiracy to commit an indictable offence. "This investigation is ongoing and other arrests are anticipated," police said in a statement. Police had announced Friday they made five arrested in connection with the whisky theft, totalling more than 1,000 boxes of Crown Royal products on May 17. A commercial tractor trailer was stolen from a trucking business near Devonshire Mall and found empty the next day. Police laid similar charges against the other five people arrested. "There was a rental truck that we believe has been used to transport some of the stolen alcohol down the road to the 401, going east to cities like London and maybe even farther east," Windsor police spokesperson Const. Bianca Jackson said in late May. Jackson said last week that Windsor police officers were working with other forces in the region to track down the suspects.
