Here are the top five stories today in Orlando:

1. Southern-inspired Mason Jar Provisions, which opened in June 2022, has now closed. The owners have said it will be moving, but the location is still unconfirmed. Rumors suggest it could move to Mills 50 or Winter Park. (Bungalower)

2. A man was arrested Friday at Orlando International Airport on allegations that he molested a teen girl on a flight from Los Angeles, according to U.S. Marshals. Brian Durning, 51, claimed he had taken an Ambien after having a glass of wine on the flight and did not remember anything that happened. (Click Orlando)

3. Officials said a potential odor in a cabin stopped an American Airlines flight bound for Central Florida from North Carolina Monday morning. "The aircraft stopped safely on the taxiway where customers were asked to deplane through boarding doors onto the ramp," the AA representative said. (Fox 35)

4. Orange County Public Schools has reached an agreement to give most teachers a $3,325 annual raise, the largest increase in more than a decade. However, the agreement does not keep pace with spiking inflation or provide as much to veteran teachers as union leaders believe they deserve. (Subscription: Orlando Sentinel)

5. On Sunday morning a man riding a bicycle was hit and killed by a vehicle. The collision occurred on State Road 559 near Sunset Lane and Auburndale in Polk County at 7:09 a.m., according to Florida Highway Patrol. (WESH)
