Tragic Train Incident, City Seeks Public Input, High Winds & Chilly Temps, Food Bank Scales Back Operations, Local Business & Sports Updates
Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for March 18, 2025.
We begin with some breaking news from the northeast side of our city where a tragic incident occurred yesterday. A person was struck and killed by a train near the intersection of Hondo Pass and the railroad tracks. This incident has left the community in shock, and our thoughts are with the victim's family during this difficult time.
In city hall news, leaders are actively engaging with residents to gather feedback on the 2026 Strategic Plan. We’re encouraged to participate in a public survey that will help shape the future of our city, particularly focusing on infrastructure and economic development. It's a crucial time for our city, as we continue to address the pressing issues affecting our daily lives.
Shifting to the weather, we are under a high wind warning today, with gusts reaching up to 70 mph. This will likely impact outdoor activities and events, so we encourage everyone to take precautions. As we look ahead, temperatures are expected to be chilly today, only reaching the mid-50s, so bundle up if you’re heading out!
In local business news, a significant change is occurring with the El Paso food bank. Due to a reduction in federal assistance, they will be scaling back operations, limiting service to four days a week starting March 31. This impacts many families who rely on their services, highlighting the ongoing food insecurity issue in our community.
On the job front, there's some concerning news as MVM Inc. has announced layoffs affecting 247 employees. However, amidst those challenges, Schneider Electric is expanding its operations here, which could create new opportunities in the electric equipment manufacturing sector.
In real estate, the sale of the building at 301 East San Antonio has been confirmed, which could open up new business options for that location. As always, it’s crucial to keep an eye on these developments as they shape our local economy.
Cultural events continue to thrive in El Paso with the grand reopening of the Leo Cancellare Memorial Pool happening today. It’s a great opportunity for families to come out and enjoy some water fun as we welcome the warmer days ahead.
In sports, the El Paso Locomotive FC is gearing up for their season opener this weekend. The team recently signed two young talents to USL Academy contracts, signifying their focus on nurturing local talent. Fans are excited as they prepare for Youth Soccer Night on Saturday, which will also feature a fireworks show after the match.
Quick highlights from our local schools include achievements in athletics, with various high school teams competing well in recent matches. These accomplishments remind us of the spirit and talent in our young athletes.
For a feel-good story, we share the tale of an El Paso family’s kind gesture during the recent St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. They collected donations and food for the local food bank, showing how our community comes together to support those in need.
Lastly, our crime report has seen some activity with an arrest made in connection with drug-related offenses in the downtown area. Local authorities continue their efforts to enhance public safety and keep our streets secure.
