R Lexington has been buzzing about a bright red Corvette that got towed downtown.

Yeah, someone parked illegally at Short and Lime and came back to find their ride gone.

The comments are absolutely roasting this person with song lyrics about fast cars and love that lasts.

Classic. Meanwhile, there's also news about U-K Chandler Hospital having to postpone surgeries after construction dust got into their sterile unit.

Wait, we've got someone calling in about the Corvette situation.

So I was walking by earlier and saw how this car was parked completely sideways in the no parking zone. Like, not even trying to be subtle about it.

Sideways? That's bold even for downtown parking.

Sounds like they were asking for that tow truck.

Back to the hospital thing, sounds like concrete dust from construction somehow made it into the area where they sterilize surgical equipment.

That's going to be an expensive mistake. Emergency surgeries are still happening but everything else is on hold.

Definitely not what you want to hear if you had something scheduled.

That's what the neighborhood is talking about this morning. More local updates coming up.
