The city of Brookhaven has closed a foot bridge in Ashford Park, 2980 Redding Road, after establishing its ownership of the bridge. The city hired a structural engineer that inspected the bridge and issued an assessment that states the bridge connecting Camille Drive and Valvedere Road is unsafe for foot traffic and must be closed.

The city is planning repairs and will keep residents informed on further updates once a timeline is established.

Donald Trump's administration deployed the military to Washington, D.C., in the name of fighting crime, and in an Aug. 11 news conference he mentioned the possibility of military being sent to other large American cities, all of which are led by Black, Democratic mayors. And while Atlanta wasn't included in Trump's list, the city fits that profile under Mayor Andre Dickens. (Photo Illustration: Philip Robibero / AJC | Source: Getty)
