Police sealed off access to the roads surrounding the house in the 200 block of East Padonia Road in Timonium where they ultimately discovered the body of 40-year-old Levi Williams.

3. Police announced that they arrested a juvenile male Friday at Glen Burnie High School after they caught him with a knife following a fight. Authorities don't think the suspect threatened anybody with the weapon. The scuffle started around 11:30 a.m. near the cafeteria during a lunch transition. A school resource officer and other nearby employees reported seeing "a juvenile highly agitated and attempting to fight another student." The workers separated the parties and realized that one of them did not belong in the school. (Glen Burnie Patch)

About 6.5 million pets and other companion animals are given to adoption agencies each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
