šŸ€Ā Cavaliers Overcome Halftime Deficit to Triumph Over Magic in Playoff Game

The Cleveland Cavaliers clinched a dramatic victory over the Orlando Magic, winning 106-94 in the NBA playoffs on Sunday. Despite a slow start and an 18-point deficit at halftime, the Cavaliers turned the game around in the third quarter with a phenomenal 18-point rally. This comeback allowed them to secure their spot in the second round of the playoffs.

The team's performance was particularly notable given the absence of key player Jarrett Allen and the recent injuries of Evan Mobley and Donovan Mitchell. The latter, despite his knee issues, played a crucial role in the second-half surge that overwhelmed the Magic. The energized home crowd played its part, boosting the team's morale and contributing to the game's turnaround.

As they move on, the Cavaliers are set to face the top-seeded Boston Celtics in the next round. Fans are optimistic yet cautious about the upcoming challenge, especially considering the team's current physical condition. Tickets for the upcoming home games and a watch party for the series against Boston will be going on sale soon.

The local police were dispatched to a residence on East 236th Street around 12:30 a.m. following reports of the shooting. Euclid Police Chief Scott Meyer has indicated that the investigation is currently in its preliminary stages. Detectives are actively gathering details to ascertain the circumstances surrounding the incident. Further updates are anticipated in the coming days as the investigation progresses.

šŸ‘® Mentor Police Offer Tips and Services to Secure Homes During Vacations

The Mentor Police Department is dedicated to maintaining safety and reducing crime in the community. To achieve this, they rely on residents' cooperation, especially when they are away from home. If you are planning a vacation, consider taking the following precautions to safeguard your property:

  • Ensure all doors and windows are securely locked.

  • Install an automatic timer for your lights to simulate occupancy.

  • Arrange for a neighbor to keep an eye on your house, maintain the yard, and occasionally park in your driveway.

  • Suspend your mail and newspaper deliveries to prevent a buildup, which signals that no one is home.

Additionally, the Mentor Police Department offers a security service for residents going on vacation. By completing a "Places To Be Checked" form, you can request periodic checks of your property by our officers. This form is available for download and can be mailed or delivered in person to:

Mentor Police Department-Records
