STORY 1: Gwinnett County Unveils Western Gwinnett Pathway

Gwinnett County officials celebrated the opening of the Western Gwinnett Pathway, a five-mile trail connecting Duluth and Suwanee, as part of the Trails Master Plan. This pathway aims to link several cities, including Norcross, Peachtree Corners, and Sugar Hill, with potential expansion to Buford. Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson emphasized the importance of diverse mobility options, while Suwanee Mayor Jimmy Burnette and Duluth Mayor Greg Whitlock praised the project for enhancing connectivity and community vibrancy. Since adopting the Trails Master Plan, nearly 40 miles of trails have been completed, with another 40 miles in progress. The $14 million project, partially funded by a $7 million sales tax, also plans to connect to the Loop Trail.

STORY 2: New Kroger Opens At Martins Chapel Marketplace In Lawrenceville

Kroger celebrated the grand opening of its new store at Martins Chapel Marketplace in Lawrenceville with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, performances by Archer High School's band, chorus, and cheerleaders, and a photo robot for holiday memories. The event featured a "Feed the Human Spirit Hour" promotion, offering free groceries to a customer each hour for five hours. This 123,000-square-foot store, Kroger's first new Gwinnett County location since 2011, represents a $40 million investment and includes a drive-through pharmacy, fuel center, and various departments. The store's mural, by Atlanta artist Helen Choi, highlights Lawrenceville's community and heritage. Kroger also made donations to local schools and a food pantry.

STORY 3: Collins Hill Grad Travis Hunter the Big Winner at College Football Awards

Collins Hill grad Travis Hunter's accolades grew significantly during ESPN's College Football Awards Show. The Colorado Buffaloes star won the Walter Camp Player of the Year, Chuck Bednarik Award, and Biletnikoff Award, adding to his Paul Hornung Award and Lott IMPACT Trophy. Despite not being nominated for the Jim Thorpe Award, Hunter's season was remarkable, excelling on both offense and defense with 92 catches for 1,152 yards and 14 TDs, and 32 tackles with four interceptions. His defensive coverage was top-rated by Pro Football Focus. Hunter made history as the first player named to the Walter Camp All-American first team on both sides of the ball. Colorado will face BYU in the Alamo Bowl on Dec. 28.

STORY 5: Gwinnett Road Rage Shooter Sentenced To Life In Prison

Michael Charles Jackson, 61, was sentenced to life in prison plus 15 years without parole for the road-rage murder of Don Wardlaw in Gwinnett County. Jackson, who represented himself, was found guilty of multiple charges, including malice murder and firearm possession by a felon. The incident occurred in January 2022 when Wardlaw's car was found wrecked after being shot twice. Evidence showed Jackson's truck tailing Wardlaw before the crash. Jackson was arrested a week later, with police finding evidence linking him to the crime. Previously, Jackson had been convicted of murder in 1987 and disorderly conduct in 2016.
