Please help! Bailey’s adoption just fell throug Please help! Bailey’s adoption just fell through, and her owner is moving to Australia in EIGHT DAYS. If we can’t find her a new home by then, this sweet girl has nowhere to go. Bailey is a 3-year-old Labrador-Staffordshire mix with a heart of gold. Her owner, a longtime UN employee, was suddenly called overseas. Because of Australia’s tough pet import laws and quarantine requirements, Bailey can’t come along. It’s heartbreaking. Originally rescued from Sofie’s Place in Arkansas, Bailey is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and healthy. She weighs 47 lbs, is calm and gentle, loves kids, and plays well with other dogs. She just needs a loving home—fast. She’s currently in Fairfield, CT, but he’ll drive her to meet you if it means giving her a second chance. Please—if you can help, contact Phil immediately:
📞 203-343-7280
📧 phil_mcinerney@yahoo.com Even if you can’t adopt, please share. Let’s not let Bailey down. #dogsofinstagram #fairfieldct #newportbuzz

Smile, you’re on camera — and now your lead fo Smile, you’re on camera — and now your lead foot could cost you. Starting July 24, 2025, the Newport Police Department is flipping the switch on a new traffic camera enforcement program at the intersection of Hillside Avenue and Admiral Kalbfus Road. The high-tech crackdown will target both speed demons and red-light runners. Got a heavy foot? That’s a $50 ticket. Blow through a red light? That’ll be $100. To soften the blow, the city’s giving drivers a 30-day grace period. That means warnings only for the first month while folks get used to Big Brother watching the box. “This program will contribute positively to the safety of our streets and the well-being of our community,” said Police Chief Ryan Duffy. But don’t think the cops are handing over the keys to the machines just yet. Duffy emphasized that this won’t replace boots on the ground. “It will not replace our ongoing police presence and traditional enforcement efforts in the area,” he added. The move comes as cities nationwide ramp up automated enforcement to curb bad driving habits — and pad city coffers. Newport joins the growing list of communities turning to cameras to do what flashing blues sometimes can’t. So if you’re cruising through the North End, ease off the gas and don’t test the yellow — unless you want your next snapshot to come with a fine. #newportri #newportbuzz
