The Cochise County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) is adding a helicopter to its fleet to help with rescues and pursuits. The chopper, named Hawkeye, was given to the CCSO because of a grant from the state. Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels said they received the helicopter from a grant, submitted to the state of Arizona. They have secured funding for the helicopter and the extra staff needed for five years. Sheriff Dannels said he has already asked the state for an extension because of the activity at the border. https://www.kgun9.com/news/local-news/cochise-county/cochise-county-sheriffs-office-adds-helicopter-to-fleet-to-help-with-rescues-pursuits

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — Animals at the Woods Memorial Library are needing your children's help to save them.

A pop-up 'Minecraft' themed escape room is held Friday and Saturday, Oct. 14 only.

Kids work together to solve puzzles and clues to save Minecraft characters.

"We need help saving our Axolotl and our Chicken, they’re trapped inside the library and there’s a forest fire coming and we need help saving them," Maggie Madriz said.

Reservations are required.

"We have sessions from 1 to 4 p.m., make your reservation by calling the library," Madriz said.

The library's phone number is (520) 594-5445.
