Good morning, Fond du Lac.

On May 7, a citizen called Fond du Lac Fire/Rescue after a mama duck and her ducklings fell into a storm sewer on Macy Street near Division— the crew rescued three ducklings and released them into the nearby river.

North Fond du Lac police found the missing 18-year-old teen near the Odyssey Movie Theater just before 6:30 a.m. Wednesday — he left his parents' house Sunday night for a TikTok challenge and authorities noted his phone was off while Snapchat was disabled, suspecting a mental health crisis.

Two online aquatic animal suppliers — one from Jamestown and one from Raleigh — were convicted in multiple counties for shipping invasive crayfish to Wisconsin despite warnings from the DNR and paid fines totaling nearly $6,000.

Yesterday, the Fond du Lac County Highway Department sprayed ditch lines along County roads to control invasive weeds—especially wild parsnip.

Crews certified in EPA herbicide application will continue spraying select County roads east of Interstate 41 and park walking trails this spring and summer—organic growers and the public may call the highway office with questions.

Airports across the U.S. began enforcing Real IDs for air travel yesterday—TSA officials said Wisconsin airports experienced smooth lines as many travelers used passports for identification.

Travelers without a Real ID can still fly with extra screening if needed, though officials recommend obtaining a Real ID before the deadline.

Former Dock Spider and current Milwaukee Brewers infielder Caleb Durbin will appear at Herr-Baker Field on June 5 to meet fans, sign autographs, and throw the ceremonial first pitch—he will be available from 5:30 to 6:15 p.m. before the Dock Spiders host the Green Bay Rockers at 6:35 p.m. on a game day featuring Craft Brews — Brats Night presented by Fox River Brewing Company and Sheboygan Sausage.
