Twin Falls’ fireworks show, revived by a local leader who is a native of Idaho Falls, brings residents together for the 4th of July while offering milder weather and fewer crowds than the larger, heavily sponsored display in Idaho Falls—sparking a friendly local rivalry.

Authorities charged 19-year-olds Daniel Wise and Andrew Snyder Thorstad in connection with a deadly shooting at a mobile home park in Kimberly that killed Chris Dequintanaroo last Thursday night—Wise faces a felony for unlawful firearm possession without posting a $1 million bond while Snyder, charged with destruction of evidence, posted a $100,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on June 27.

Idaho drivers should know that the 'No Touch' law makes it illegal to hold a cellphone while driving, with fines of $75 for a first offense, $150 for a second, and $300 for a third—law enforcement may pull over anyone seen holding a phone even when stopped.

Officials clarify that viral claims of a new law are false and that fines have been in place since fines began on January 1, 2021.

Twin Falls awarded $50,000 in grants to five local nonprofits, and Culture for Change received a $10,000 grant to train leaders and host sewing classes & support local skill development.

The Idaho Supreme Court ordered Attorney General Raúl Labrador and the Idaho Division of Financial Management to revise the short ballot title and fiscal impact statement for the Reproductive Freedom & Privacy Act so that voters get clear, impartial information—this decision came after Idahoans United for Women and Families filed a lawsuit.
