Police searching for driver of vehicle that struck, killed Joplin man
On May 6th at 1:00 a.m. an adult male was struck by a vehicle in the 1800 block of west 7th Street. Ronnie Jenkins (50) of Joplin was walking with a friend when he stepped into the outside east bound lane of traffic. An eastbound vehicle struck Jenkins causing serious injuries. The vehicle left the scene east on 7th Street and north on Maiden Lane.
Ronnie Jenkins died at a local hospital on May 28, 2017. An autopsy confirmed Jenkins died as a result of injuries sustained in the crash.
The police department is seeking the public’s assistance in locating the vehicle that struck Jenkins. Biased on witness statements and video obtained, the suspect vehicle appears to be a red Jeep wrangler with a black top (possibly a soft top). It has a slight lift or slightly larger tires and the wheels have some chrome on them.
If you have any information in this case, or know of someone that has or had similar vehicle, please contact Officer Waters at 623-3131 ext 597 or email photos with a license plate to cwaters@joplinmo.org.
Highway Patrol Troop D reports 55 crashes, 16 DWI arrests over Memorial Day holiday period
(From Highway Patrol Troop D)
Captain Juan Villanueva, commanding officer, Troop D, Springfield, announces the following preliminary traffic and boating totals for the 2017 Memorial Day holiday period.
Troop D troopers participated in Operation C.A.R.E. (Crash Awareness & Reduction Effort) from Friday, May 26, 2017, through Monday, May 29, 2017, meaning every available officer was on the road enforcing traffic laws and assisting motorists. Troop D reported zero traffic fatalities, but investigated 55 traffic crashes that included 27 injuries. Troopers made 16 DWI arrests and 11 drug arrests.
The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri's roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober. "Don't Violate The Trust."
There were zero boating fatalities over the 2017 Memorial Day weekend in Troop D. Troopers assigned to area waterways within the Troop D region investigated one boat crash resulting in one injury. Troopers arrested five people for boating while intoxicated and made four drug arrests.
Watercraft operators must consider the effect their actions have on others: Share the waterway and use common sense, good judgment, and courtesy to ensure the safety of all. Life jackets save lives. Wear It!

The production is a comic take on the Bard that zips through 37 plays in 97 minutes, says Dr. Jim Lile, theater professor and coordinator of the festival.
“We’re delighted to have the opportunity to bring something a bit different to our patrons this summer,” said Lile. “‘The Complete Works’ is a brilliant, zany, way over-the-top roller coaster of Shakespeare’s plays presented by a trio terrifically talented performers.”
Directed by Matt Campbell, the production stars Stephanie Easterday, Taylor Shepard and Devri Chism. Tickets are $10.
“That Shakespeare Thing!” – a fundraiser for the festival – will be held at 7:30 p.m. Friday, June 16, in the North End Zone Facility. The evening will feature dessert, wine and familiar faces trying their hands at performing the Bard’s works. Admission is $25, and there will be a silent auction featuring Shakespeare-inspired pieces by local artists. The event was rescheduled from last month due to inclement weather.

Missouri Gas Energy rate increases take effect June 1
(From the Missouri Public Service Commission)
To reflect estimated changes in the wholesale cost of natural gas, Missouri Gas Energy (MGE) customers will see natural gas rates change under a filing that takes effect on June 1, 2017. MGE is an operating unit of the Laclede Gas Company.
MGE residential customers currently pay approximately $0.49 per Ccf (per hundred cubic feet) of natural gas. Under this filing, the rate will increase to approximately $0.57 per Ccf, an increase of approximately $0.08 per Ccf.
MGE stated in its filing that compared to last November, this change will increase the average monthly natural gas bill of a typical residential customer through October 2017 by about $1.28 a month.
Approximately 55% to 60% of a customer’s current natural gas bill reflects the cost of natural gas from wholesale suppliers. The wholesale cost of natural gas (the cost your local natural gas company must pay to its suppliers for natural gas) is not regulated by the Missouri Public Service Commission. The wellhead cost of natural gas is unregulated and is primarily driven by supply, demand and the weather. The Missouri Public Service Commission does conduct an annual regulatory review to ensure that regulated natural gas companies make prudent decisions in securing natural gas supplies for their customers.
MGE serves approximately 507,700 natural gas customers in the Missouri counties of Andrew, Barry, Barton, Bates, Buchanan, Carroll, Cass, Cedar, Christian, Clay, Clinton, Dade, DeKalb, Greene, Henry, Howard, Jackson, Jasper, Johnson, Lafayette, Lawrence, McDonald, Moniteau, Pettis, Platte, Ray, Saline, Stone and Vernon.

Eagle Family Foods to shut down Seneca facility, 56 to lose jobs
(From Eagle Family Foods Group)
Eagle Foods' decision resulted from the company's comprehensive review of its supply chain and manufacturing operations and reflects a sustained increase of competitive pressures in the milk product category. The company will consolidate all milk production to its El Paso, Texas facility.
"Any decision that results in the closing of a facility and the elimination of positions is extremely difficult," said Paul Wagstaff, president and chief executive officer of Eagle Foods.
"We took great care to consider all alternatives, but this consolidation is necessary to ensure the long-term health and competitiveness of our milk business."
The Eagle Foods facility in Seneca produces condensed and evaporated milk and employs 56 wage and salaried employees.
The company will work with local organizations and officials, including the Central Equity Milk Cooperative, to make the closing of the facility as smooth as possible for the community. There are no immediate changes to operations at the Seneca plant and the company will provide additional information about the timing and sequence of the close as it becomes available.
"We are deeply appreciative of the dedication and hard work of our Seneca employees and are committed to treating them fairly during this transition including providing severance packages," Wagstaff said. "We also want to thank the entire Seneca community for its support throughout the history of the facility."
The company has not made any decisions regarding the final disposition of the property, but is exploring various options and will make further announcements as appropriate."

Posts on Will Norton, Donald Trump, Paul Barr among most viewed this week on Turner Report/Inside Joplin
The most unusual posts this week came in at numbers six and seven.
Number six was a post from June 2011 as I noted a few Turner Report posts from six years ago to observe the sixth anniversary of the Joplin Tornado. The post featured my coverage of the funeral of Joplin High School graduate Will Norton, one of the 161 tornado victims.
At number seven was the transcript and video of the only comments on record by President Donald Trump about the Joplin Tornado, though he never mentions Joplin.
The top Inside Joplin post was originally published under a different headline based on the name of one of those who was arrested in Barton County and the charge against him. The charge is still listed in the report, but I removed the photo and changed the headline after I received a call from a law enforcement official telling me that the man I had been writing about had died.
Coming in at number three was the complete video of the Joplin High School graduation.

Grand opening ceremonies for new Joplin Public Library set for Saturday, June 3
(From the Joplin Public Library)
Everyone is invited to enjoy a day of fun and excitement on Saturday, June 3 as they explore Joplin’s NEW Public Library during its Grand Opening. A Ribbon Cutting on the north side of the building will kick off the event at 9:30 a.m., and then the doors will open for everyone to come inside for a short program in the Community Room before touring the building. The new Library is located at 1901 East 20th Street.
During this event, the public can enjoy several activities focusing on the Library’s unique elements. Participants can return the sheets for a chance to win an Amazon Fire tablet. There will also be a drawing for several to win an out of district library card. Winners can use the card or they can gift it to someone of their choosing. Patrons do not need to be present to win.
As the public visits the different areas of the Library, they will notice many new features in the facility. Multiple meeting spaces offer flexibility to accommodate both small and large groups, and an “un-conference room” houses lounge furniture for less formal meetings and collaboration.

As the public visits the different areas of the Library, they will notice many new features in the facility. Multiple meeting spaces offer flexibility to accommodate both small and large groups, and an “un-conference room” houses lounge furniture for less formal meetings and collaboration.
Several adaptable creation spaces, also known as “Maker Spaces” can be found in the new Library. These rooms may include tools and support services to complete booklet and brochure publishing, video production and/or editing, audio recording or editing, 3d printing and scanning, as well as other creative projects.
Library staff will be stationed throughout the facility to talk with the public about services and resources available in the various areas. Self-check kiosks, a family computer room, outdoor courtyards and patio space, along with an enhanced vending area help create a user-friendly and comfortable facility for all ages.
“We wanted to provide amenities and conveniences while still focusing on the customer service, resources and a vast collection of books, periodicals, music, DVDs and other items that our patrons have enjoyed throughout the years,” said Library Director Jacque Gage. “Not only will the Library solve ADA accessibility issues, but it also provides much needed technology upgrades with maker spaces, new computer lab and a video wall that gives us multiple options in using this feature.”
The event’s program will welcome local officials to the podium, as well as Angela Martinez, Regional Director of the Denver, Colorado’s Economic Development Administration (EDA) office. The Library is a partnership with the EDA, which awarded the City a $20 million grant to assist in the redevelopment of the 20th Street area following the 2011 disaster. This stimulation project includes site infrastructure repairs and improvements, as well as the new Library facility.
Barbara Reading, Missouri State Librarian, will also attend and speak during the program. Reading has been with the Missouri State Library since 1993, serving as the youth services consultant, and the Director of Library Development. In 2013, she assumed the role of State Librarian. Reading recognizes the significant contributions a library provides to its community and is looking forward to joining the Joplin community for the opening.
Jill Sullivan, Director of the Post Art Library, is also on the program to introduce a new look and focus of the Post Art Library (PAL). Located in the northeast corner, PAL’s Reading Room is warm and inviting with a fireplace and large picture windows. With the move, PAL will have more space to feature arts-related programs, resources, displays, and services including assistance with creation in the makerspace.
“We are getting very close to opening the doors of this beautiful building that offers incredible amenities for our patrons,” said Gage. “Our staff is very excited and we can’t wait to introduce the facility to the public. This library is a community resource and we invite the everyone into our new building, the library of the 21st century.”

Significant Hail risk. Significant Thunderstorm wind damage risk. Significant Lightning risk. DISCUSSION... Strong to severe storms will develop and impact the Ozarks this afternoon into tonight as very strong instability and wind shear develop ahead of a cold front. A line of thunderstorms producing widespread damaging wind gusts appears increasingly likely. Gusts over 75 mph will be possible. Tornadoes will also be possible with any portions of the line which bow towards the east. If this line of storms materializes, there will be the potential for power outages. There will also be the potential for some supercell thunderstorms, especially this afternoon and early this evening as storms initially begin to develop. If these supercells do form, hail up to the size of baseballs, damaging winds, and tornadoes will all be possible. Along with the risk for severe thunderstorms, frequent lightning and locally heavy rainfall can be expected. Localized flooding of low water crossings will be possible where the heavier rainfall occurs. Those with outdoor plans this afternoon and tonight are urged to pay close attention to the weather and have a plan in place to move to a sturdy shelter when severe weather threatens. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday. A few lingering strong to severe storms will impact portions of south central Missouri Sunday morning before the system moves completely through the region.

There may be an isolated damaging wind gust up to 60 mph possible overnight as well. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday. Overall...the best chance for strong to severe storms will occur from Saturday afternoon into Saturday night as the cap weakens and very strong instability develops ahead of a cold front which will move through Saturday night. The main risks will be large hail up to the size of baseballs and damaging wind in excess of 70 mph. The possibility exists for a tornado or two as well. With the risk of severe thunderstorms...frequent lightning and heavy rainfall will be possible.

Moving violation checkpoint to be held in Jasper County, DWI saturation in McDonald County
(From Highway Patrol Troop D)
Captain Juan Villanueva, commanding officer, Troop D, Springfield, announces that sometime during the month of June 2017, Troop D will conduct DWI saturations in McDonald, Stone, and Taney counties. The areas selected for enforcement are based on a high number of drinking-related crashes, high number of contacts with drivers who have been drinking, and officers’ input as to probable contact with DWI violators. The sobering fact is that impaired driving contributes to more than 23 percent of all Missouri fatal traffic crashes (preliminary 2016 statistics). That’s why the Missouri State Highway Patrol will be cracking down on impaired driving throughout the month of June.
Additionally, the Patrol will be conducting hazardous moving violation saturations in Christian, Greene, and Jasper counties. The primary goal of these projects is to positively impact traffic problems by reducing crashes. The objectives are to heighten the awareness of the risks associated with impaired driving and increase compliance of the speed limit and seat belt laws.
“The Missouri State Highway Patrol is committed to removing unsafe drivers from our highways,” said Captain Villanueva. “Saturations are part of the Patrol’s strategy to make Missouri’s roadways safer.”
The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri’s roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober. “Don’t Violate The Trust.”

Pet food company to build 112,000 square foot facility in Joplin. add 46 jobs
Today, Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens announced that major pet food company Blue Buffalo plans to expand upon its Heartland Pet Food manufacturing campus in Joplin by constructing a 112,000 sq. ft. building to accommodate continued expansion. The company’s new facility and expansion is expected to result in the creation of 46 new jobs for the community of Joplin.
“I spoke with Bill Bishop, Chairman and founder of Blue Buffalo, about their plans to construct a new building and increase the size of its campus in Joplin. They will bring in a new pet food line and create 46 new jobs in the community. It was great to talk to them about Missouri’s new direction and they look forward to working with us to grow the state’s economy and create more quality jobs. Thank you, Blue Buffalo,” said Gov. Greitens.
In 2012, Blue Buffalo broke ground on its 416,000 sq. ft. Heartland Pet Foods facility in Joplin, which became the company’s first manufacturing plant in the country. Blue Buffalo has pledged to create more than 160 full-time jobs at the plant. After just a few years of operating in its facility, the company will now expand Heartland’s footprint to accommodate additional manufacturing equipment for a new pet food line and for its growing workforce. The new building is expected to be completed by the beginning of 2018. Blue Buffalo points to Missouri’s strong workforce, central location and robust transportation system for its decision to expand in the Show-Me State.
“Blue Buffalo’s expansion of our state of the art manufacturing facility in Joplin reflects our ongoing commitment to the people, the city and the state of Missouri. With this expansion we will be further increasing our internal production capacity. We are very proud to continue to create jobs and to being an upstanding partner in the community," noted Bill Bishop, Chairman and founder of Blue Buffalo
The Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce and the City of Joplin also assisted the company with its expansions in Missouri.
“Blue Buffalo’s Heartland facility is an excellent employer in our community and representative of the many fine firms in our food processing sector. We are proud the company thinks enough of Joplin and its people to continue to invest in expanding its operations here,” noted Rob O’Brian, President, Joplin Area Chamber of Commerce. “We look forward to seeing the continued growth of Blue Buffalo in this area.”
