Good morning, Bradenton.

A 39-year-old man was arrested and charged with murder after fatally stabbing a 40-year-old at a home on the 400 block of 60th Avenue Drive East in Bradenton on Sunday morning—deputies say the victim was taken to Blake Hospital and pronounced dead at 7:15 a.m. as witnesses reported the argument escalated and the investigation remains active.

Local community members held a 9/11 Memorial Flag Planting event to honor victims of the attacks - the ceremony served as a solemn reminder of the importance of remembrance.

Albert Castiglia, a Miami-raised blues guitarist who apprenticed with Junior Wells and worked with Sandra Hall, continues his acclaimed solo career with a performance at Cottonmouth—Bradenton's venue known for its southern soul cuisine and live music on a beautiful patio.

He was nominated for two Blues Music Awards and won Blues Rock Album of the Year for his album Masterpiece, earning praise for his exceptional live shows and searing vocals.

Steve Junot has played over 5000 gigs in the last 20 years and says his secret is reading the crowd—he adjusts his setlist to match requests and the mood of the audience with his vast repertoire.

Florida’s health department said a rule to drop school vaccine mandates for illnesses such as chickenpox, hepatitis B, Hib influenza, and pneumococcal diseases will not take effect until about 90 days after it was initiated on September 3 — leaving vaccines for measles, polio, and others still required. Lawmakers may extend the rule to cover more diseases, but new changes will come only through legislation.
