Local 12 anchor announces she is leaving station: 'Cincy, I love you'
A Local 12 (WKRC-TV) anchor is leaving the station. Annie Brown, an anchor, reporter and host of "Tri-State: Unsolved," is leaving the station after two years on the air, she shared via social media Tuesday, May 20. Brown's last day will be May 31, she told The Enquirer via email. "To say these past two years have been a blessing would be an understatement," Brown wrote on social media. "I'm terrible at goodbyes and often avoid them because they're hard for me ... and this one gets me so emotional." "A piece of my heart will always be with Local 12. And I will forever be grateful for not just the career experience I gained, but the friendships I made during my time here. Cincy, I love you," she continued. Brown graduated from Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky, in 2021 with a bachelor's degree in journalism, per her bio on the Local 12 website. Brown joined the station in May 2023 after spending nearly two years as an anchor and reporter at ABC 36 (WTVQ-TV) in her hometown of Lexington, Kentucky. "I came to Local 12 as a very young, very inexperienced journalist. I was healing, I was learning, and I was desperate for a place that could encourage me and help me grow. I found just that in the people I've had the privilege to work with during my time here," Brown stated. She added that she "can't wait to share what's in store next."

Reality check for worshippers who thought they found the blood of Jesus on a wafer
Worshippers at a Catholic church in Indiana thought they had found a miracle when they discovered red marks on a communion wafer – the reality was much less exciting. The Archdiocese of Indianapolis said the wafer was found when it fell out of a Mass kit and 'when it was discovered, red spots were present'. Several parishioners were understood to believe the red substance was the blood of Jesus Christ, and therefore a Eucharistic miracle. The archdiocese said: 'Throughout the history of the Catholic Church, there have been well-documented miracles and apparitions, and each has been thoroughly and carefully reviewed.' But, a scientific analysis debunked claims of a miracle at St Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Morris. The archdiocese announced on Monday that a biochemical analysis revealed the marks were caused by "fungus and three different species of bacteria, all of which are commonly found on human hands." The analysis confirmed that no blood was present on the wafer. The Catholic faith teaches that wine and a bread wafer signify the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Typically, they're consecrated by a priest at Mass. The host, or bread, with red marks had fallen out of a Mass kit at St. Anthony Church. Before the analysis, some members of St. Anthony Church were excited about what might be found. 'We have such a little town. You can drive through and blink and you're through it,' Shari Strassell, a church member, told WKRC-TV. 'It means the world, it does, and I think there is something special about our church up here.' It comes as Assisi, the medieval Italian town revered as the home of Saints Francis and Clare, is experiencing a new wave of pilgrim fervou r. The focus of this burgeoning devotion is Carlo Acutis, a millennial teenager set to be canonised on April 27.

It was bacteria — not a miracle — on a communion wafer in US church
MORRIS, Indiana: A laboratory analysis turned up nothing miraculous about red marks found on a Communion wafer at a Catholic church in Indiana. The discovery at St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Morris was unusual enough for a formal inspection, the Archdiocese of Indianapolis said. But a biochemical analysis revealed only 'fungus and three different species of bacteria, all of which are commonly found on human hands,' the archdiocese said Monday, adding that no blood was found. The Catholic faith teaches that wine and a bread wafer signify the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Typically, they're consecrated by a priest at Mass.
