Buckeye Boy, 9, Dies Days After Birthday as Arizona Flu Cases Surge Past 2,400

A third grader from Buckeye died days after turning nine, following two emergency room visits. His first visit ended with a stomatitis diagnosis, and his mother said he tested positive for flu on the second; there was no clear explanation for how quickly he declined. Ian Loredo had been sent home from his first ER trip with anti-nausea medicine and a note saying he could return to school the next day. Hours after the family got back home, he was unresponsive.

This Arizona city bans wasting water and fines are steep

As Arizona anticipates federal cuts to its share of Colorado River water, residents may become hyperaware of their water use. Customers in Peoria should be, because wasting water is prohibited in the city. The city's local laws say things like leaving taps on when not in use, failing to repair water leaks, and allowing water to run off one's property onto streets or sidewalks are not allowed. Depending on the violation, residents could face a $250 to $1,000 fine, a class one misdemeanor, or their water shut off. Water waste was written into the city's local laws in 1992, but it has since been expanded. So far in 2026, the city's code department has reported 117 violations, mostly for water leaks and pool backwashing, according to Victoria Caster, Peoria's sustainability and water conservation coordinator. Arizona's allocation from the Colorado River will soon fall by nearly 25% over the next two years. That would amount to about 760,000 acre-feet of water, according to the federal plan meant to protect the drought-stricken Lake Mead and Lake Powell. An acre-foot of water is enough to supply three typical households for a year. Peoria gets its largest share, 44%, of water from the Central
