Tragic crash, major expansions, cultural center opening - El Paso Local Pulse for March 21, 2025
Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for March 21, 2025.
We're starting with some breaking news from yesterday afternoon. A tragic accident occurred on Gateway South near Sean Haggerty Drive, resulting in one fatality. The victim has been identified as 45-year-old Kentate Lamon Hubbard. Police say high winds, low visibility, and speeding may have contributed to the crash. This marks the 12th traffic fatality in El Paso this year.
Speaking of high winds, El Paso experienced another dust storm earlier this week. These storms typically occur about four times a year in our area. Today's forecast calls for clearer skies with temperatures reaching the mid-70s, perfect for outdoor activities.
In business news, Schneider Electric USA has announced a major expansion of its El Paso campus. This multi-million-dollar project will create 300 new jobs in our community. Governor Abbott praised the investment, highlighting Texas's business-friendly climate and skilled workforce.
Looking ahead to the weekend, the Mexican American Cultural Center is set to open its doors tomorrow. This long-awaited project, part of the 2012 quality of life bond, will host a grand opening celebration from 10 AM to 6 PM, featuring guided tours, food trucks, and art exhibits. The ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for 11 AM.
For those interested in supporting local businesses, Borderland Pallet Liquidation is having its grand opening tomorrow at 508 Canal Road. The El Paso Hispanic Chamber of Commerce will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 1 PM.
In education news, there's an ongoing debate about a proposed state bill that would ban cellphone use in public school classrooms. The bill has sparked mixed reactions among El Paso residents, with some concerned about emergency communications and others supporting the reduction of distractions.
On the job front, we have some concerning news. MVM Inc., a federal contractor, has announced it will lay off 247 employees in El Paso. However, this is partially offset by the new positions coming from Schneider Electric's expansion.
In sports, the El Paso Locomotive faced off against Harpos FC in a recent match. While we don't have the final score, highlights from the game are available online for fans to enjoy.
Turning to public safety, El Paso police apprehended several juveniles following a burglary at a local smoke shop earlier this week. The Auto Theft Task Force was involved in the investigation.
On a lighter note, the El Paso Children's Hospital has welcomed two new employees - robots named Rosey and Astro. These high-tech helpers are assisting the nursing staff with various tasks, showcasing our city's embrace of innovative healthcare solutions.
This has been El Paso Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
