3-D printers for YCS

YOUNGSTOWN

Students at Youngstown Community School, 50 Essex St., will soon benefit from two new 3-D printers.

YCS will partner with Applied Systems and Technology Transfer – AST2 – to not only provide a 3-D printer, but to also bring a Computer Aided Design curriculum to the school and provide technical support to staff.

A YCS technology teacher and coordinator will visit the Youngstown Business Incubator Tuesday for a “build session,” where they will work together to build one of the printers. Once the printers are built, they will be delivered to YCS.

Work complaints

YOUNGSTOWN

A representative with U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission will visit the Youngstown unit of the NAACP from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday to help file complaints of employment discrimination based on race, religion, sex, national origin, age (40 and older), disability or retaliation.

The EEOC considers retaliation the firing of a worker who complained about job discrimination, gave evidence in a job-discrimination matter or filed a charge of job discrimination with the commission.

The local unit of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is at the Cobbin Office Tower, 1350 Fifth Ave., Suite 202. Free parking is available.

A police pursuit that began in Campbell ended on the front porch of a home on Bassett Lane in Youngstown.

Campbell police say they tried to pull over a car after the driver ran a stop sign near McCartney Road on Friday night. However the driver drove away and police chased the car through neighborhoods at speeds exceeding 45 miles per hour, according to 21 WFMJ-TV, The Vindicator’s broadcast partner.

When the fleeing driver’s car hit another vehicle on Bassett, the driver jumped out and escaped on foot. However, he left his car in gear and it rolled into a home.
