🌱 Officer Revives Man With CPR + Absentee Ballot Drop Off Locations

Hi all. It's me, Danielle Fallon-O'Leary, your host of the Marietta Daily — here to tell you all the most important things happening in town these days.

But first, today's weather:

Humid with a shower in spots. High: 76 Low: 64.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Marietta who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Marietta Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top three stories today in Marietta:

1. An officer with the Powder Springs Police Department used CPR to revive a Cobb County man on Saturday, Oct. 29. The incident occurred on Silver Comet Trail. The man went into cardiac arrest and Officer Yates performed CPR for over 10 minutes while waiting for paramedics. (Fox 5 Atlanta)
2. Two Cobb County college students report that mold has been growing inside their off-campus apartment, located at Town Village Apartments in Cobb County. The mold has started spreading to items inside the apartment. Tests did not indicate any black mold. The leasing company has allegedly taken multiple steps to rectify the situation. The tenants disagree with the company's statement. (WSB-TV)
