A.J. Nwoko reports on how VCU is tackling Virginia's nursing shortage. Any nurses out there care to comment about the current situation in hospitals?

Kelsey's face sorta says it all.

Some Richmond drivers are confused/frustrated with a new city ordinance regarding parking and city bike lanes.

It seems some drivers whose car tires were just touching the painted white buffer zone line that sits between the bike lane and parking lane awoke to tickets along Patterson Avenue.

A Richmond city councilperson admits rollout of the new enforcement, which went into effect May 1, was not the greatest.

"I believe the city should have implemented a warning period after the law was changed to give people time to understand the new standards, and also give the city time to clarify the standards,"
Richmond City Councilman Andrew Breton, who supported the ordinance, said. "The concerns I'm hearing are the concern that some of the parking lanes are not wide enough to comply, and so I think it's important that the city's engineers analyze how true that is. I've also heard the complaint that they didn't have enough time to learn about the new standards to adapt their parking methods, which I fully agree with when I approved this ordinance."

When asked how many tickets have been issued so far, Breton said he did not have a specific number.

"I'm not sure, but I've certainly gotten a lot of emails about it," Breton said.

UPDATE: I saw him walking away from Lane Stadium wearing a sling on his arm.

After a tense few minutes, firefighters rescued him and he appears to be OK. The Hokie crowd cheered as firefighters lowered him to safety.
