Today’s Montgomery County update brings tough news out of Gaithersburg, where neighbors are rallying to support the four children of Maritza Ferman Sorto after her tragic death. We’ve also got word on her partner’s arrest in Texas, a traffic closure on Frederick Road in Germantown, and the latest MCPS emergency protocol update for parents and students. On the lighter side, Takoma Park’s Folk Festival promises music, crafts, and fun this weekend, and an Aldi in Germantown had a very unusual visitor. Stick around to the end for today’s dad joke.
