THE WALKING DEAD: DEAD CITY Renewed for Season 3 with New Showrunner at the Helm — GeekTyrant
AMC isn't done with Manhattan's walker-infested ruins just yet, The Walking Dead: Dead City has officially been renewed for Season 3. The announcement comes just weeks after the Season 2 finale dropped on June 22. Eli Jorné, who developed the spinoff and steered it through its first two seasons, is stepping down as showrunner. Seth Hoffman will take over for Season 3, bringing serious Walking Dead cred to the table. Hoffman was a writer and co-executive producer on the main series during Seasons 4 through 6, writing standout episodes like 'Too Far Gone,' 'JSS,' and 'No Way Out.' His resume also includes House and Prison Break. AMC Networks' president of entertainment Dan McDermott praised Jorné's work in a statement: 'We're thankful to Eli Jorné for two seasons of 'Dead City' that took the story of these iconic characters in exciting new directions and broadened this thriving Universe by introducing a new corner of the walker apocalypse. 'As we continue to create new stories for a passionate TWD fanbase, we're delighted to have a seasoned 'Walking Dead' veteran like Seth Hoffman at the helm of a new season, alongside the remarkable Lauren Cohan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, that will bring new adversaries and alliances and push the boundaries of Maggie and Negan's conflicted relationship.' Hoffman sounds just as eager to jump back in: 'I'm excited to have the chance to dive back into The Walking Dead Universe and work to deliver another dynamic season's worth of stories to this epic franchise. It's a true honor to chart out the next chapter for Maggie and Negan's iconic adventures in Dead City. Lauren, Jeffrey and Scott are incredible creative partners and I'm thrilled to collaborate with them to bring this story to life.' Production kicks off this fall in Boston, with Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan reprising their roles as Negan and Maggie. According to AMC, Season 3 will see the duo finally set aside their differences to build the first thriving community in Manhattan since the apocalypse, until chaos erupts and forces them to question whether their past will destroy everything they've built. Cohan and Morgan will continue serving as executive producers alongside Hoffman, Scott M. Gimple, Brian Bockrath, and Colin Walsh.

Lone Tree breaks ground on new justice center as population in the Colorado city projected to double
The City of Lone Tree broke ground on a new justice center on Thursday. It's located east of Interstate 25 off of RidgeGate Parkway. The area is seeing a lot of new development and will also be home to the future High Note Regional Park. Alex Britti In the next decade the City of Lone Tree expects their population to double. It's why they're building a new police department and municipal court to accommodate that growth. "This building's a long time coming, and certainly, I think, well earned by the police department," said Lone Tree Police Chief Kirk Wilson. Wilson says right now the police department is housed in the city municipal building. "We're outgrowing our building, so we're really busting at the seams as far as kind of run out of offices. We run out of cubicle space, parking lot's too small," said Wilson. But now its future home is breaking ground, a 38,000-square-foot justice center in the fast-growing RidgeGate East area. "1995 we formed a city. In 2005 we formed a police department. And in 2025 we're going to build a justice center they both deserve," said Lone Tree City Manager Seth Hoffman, speaking at the groundbreaking event. "As you add new businesses and new apartments and new housing, then you want to be able to have an officer who can patrol those areas. So we really need to expand so we can have an officer in every area of the city all the time," said Wilson. The justice center will feature a more efficient layout for the police department. "It's going to have more state-of-the-art type equipment. It's going to be better equipped for the police department, more room, more space. Seems like we're always fighting for a conference room to have a meeting. Better holding cell area so it's more secure and safe for the officers as well as the prisoners," said Wilson. "Police departments just have a lot of demands on them. So you know, officers have to be social workers and mental health workers and, you know, not to mention, you know, responding to criminal calls." The building will also house Lone Tree's municipal court. "The courthouse is, currently in the in the city council chambers, and that's really not set up for that right? Not proper security, not proper waiting areas, not places, good places for attorneys to meet with their clients," said Wilson. As the community grows, so will the size of the police force. Wilson says they've already increased from about 50 to 60 officers in the last decade. "It's really kind of based on the growth. So we'll keep adding positions. And again, part of that's to expand our ability to patrol in this area, as well as keep our patrols going in the rest of the city," said Wilson. Laying the foundation for Lone Tree's future, the justice center expects to be complete in October of 2026. "It's just an exciting thing for the police department. I think for the officers, it's, you know, generating a sense of pride for them and their city and their police department. I think it's something the city deserves. The citizens deserve to have the best police department, the best police force that we can have, and we certainly want to always provide the same level of service we do today, which, in my opinion, is a platinum level of service for the citizens of Lone Tree," said Wilson. Next month Lone Tree will also break ground on a new public works operations facility which will be housed near the justice center. Together the two projects will cost the city $50 million.

Victim describes terrifying ordeal after string of home invasions in Howard County
A Howard County community has been shaken up after home surveillance footage caught a man successfully robbing a home without residents hearing a peep. The victim, who wished to remain anonymous, says she was horrified after seeing the video. "They used our garage door opener. They opened our garage door. They went in through our house, through our mudroom door, which was unlocked. Obviously, we should have kept that locked," she admitted. She reports that the suspect broke into her Clarksville home around 2:30 a.m., stealing money and a cell phone. However, she says she never heard a thing. "I couldn't sleep..." "It's very scary. I couldn't sleep for several nights after," the anonymous victim said. This is just one of three homes on Ballymore and Candlelight Drive that the suspect broke into, gaining access from a garage door opener found in a car, according to police. "Whatever is the easiest way to get into a vehicle, to get into a residence, is what they take," said Seth Hoffman with Howard County Police Department. The suspect is seen in a video attempting to open several other car doors, which were locked. Clarksville/Dayton residential burglary suspect RECOGNIZE THIS SUSPECT? Howard County police are asking for the public's help in identifying the suspect in several residential burglaries in the Clarksville and Dayton areas since January. The suspect, seen here on video at two victim residences, enters unlocked vehicles and uses garage door openers to enter homes to steal cash. This has occurred during the overnight hours. Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 410-313-STOP or HCPDCrimeTips@ You may remain anonymous. Posted by Howard County Police Department on Wednesday, March 5, 2025 Simple deterrents are key to protecting yourself Police say simple deterrents like that are the best way to protect yourself and your family. "If you have security measures on your car like a club or other alarm systems, they're going to bypass those. They may try, but they'll bypass," said Hoffman. "Same with residences. If they can find an easy way in, where they don't have to break down a door and do things that may bring extra attention, then they'll go for it." WJZ's Ashley Paul spoke with a victim who says she's lived in the area for 25 years, and while it's upsetting, she says it's not shocking. "I think it's happening in every neighborhood unfortunately. These are crimes of opportunity and we gave them the opportunity." The victim says they have since installed an alarm and cameras at their home, and urge others to check their locks each night. If you have any information about the suspect, you are asked to contact the Howard County Police Department at 410-313-STOP.

Huntingdon County camp adding new dining hall ahead of 2025 season
HUNTINGDON COUNTY (WTAJ) – Camp Kanesatake's dining hall was one of the original structures of the site in Spruce Creek, dating back to more than 100 years ago. The camp tore the original building down and is replacing it with a brand new one. 'Our previous dining hall, was not winterized. We didn't have, like, really good AC in it or heating. So this is just going to open up so much opportunity for us to serve kids and teens year round,' Food Service Director Jessica Miller said. 'Animal fighting still exists' Pennsylvania Dems look to fund investigations into issue The building still has a lot of work to be done to it, but workers believe it will be ready by the time campers start rolling in. 'The project needs to be done by June, but we're on schedule to do that. And our guys, all of our contractors have been doing a great job on keeping us on schedule. And then, our donors, we're so thankful for them and everybody that's given to this project,' Camp Director Seth Hoffman said. Camp Kanesatake is a faith based summer camp for kids aging from 2nd grade up until 12th grade. The camp offers many outdoor activities as well as time for kids to learn about faith. Summer camp programs start when school lets out in June. For more information on how to sign up for their programs, you can visit the camps website. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
