Good morning. It's Tuesday, May 3. Parents of the Apopka Lacrosse Club are frustrated by the city's field rental system and the preferential treatment of other sports, including Pop Warner and Little League. Orlando police are switching up their policy on cleaning up after patrol horses. "Upon receipt of a complaint, the manure will be removed to the best of our abilities," Sgt. Charles Crosby, who heads the mounted unit, said.
