🌱 Sandy Springs PD Officer Trains In Israel + Sunnyside Pizza Opening

Good morning, Sandy Springs! I am your host, Patrick Murray here with three fresh headlines to kick off your day.

First, today's weather:

Heavy thunderstorm with a high of 91 and a low of 72.

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

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Sandy Springs 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 stories in Sandy Springs today:

1. The Sandy Springs Police Department recently sent Maj. Michael Lindstrom to Israel for a two-week leadership training workshop. Lindstrom joined 15 other policemen from across Georgia on the trip. The delegates were partnered with Israeli Police and taught practices and new technologies regarding public safety. (Reporter Newspapers)
2. Sunnyside Pizza recently opened in Sandy Springs. Chefs David Ge and Sunny Sun began their career in pizza in Iowa, and recently expanded into the neighborhood. The duo was inspired after discovering Fong's Pizza. (Paywall: The Atlanta Journal Constitution)
3. A Fulton County authority member has been accused of violating the state's per diem policy, only a year after a similar scandal occurred in the same department. (Paywall: The Atlanta Journal Constitution)
