Good morning, Kent.
Over the weekend, hundreds gathered at Kent State University to honor the anniversary of the May 4 shootings that left four students dead and nine injured.
The memorial events — including a silent ceremony with the ringing of the Victory Bell and remarks on the enduring impact of the protests — recalled the historic protest against the Vietnam War.
On Saturday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced that some 20-ounce clam shell packages of vine-ripe tomatoes sold in stores, including in Ohio, have been recalled due to a possible salmonella contamination—Ray & Mascari Inc. repackaged these tomatoes from a lot supplied by Hanshaw & Capling Farms in Florida. Customers are advised to discard any recalled products—no illnesses have been reported and questions can be directed to Ray & Mascari Inc. at 1-317-637-0234.
