Want to become the next Hulk Hogan, John Cena, or The Rock? Renaissance Rumble, a pro wrestling training organization, is now open on the bottom level of Lakeforest Mall in Gaithersburg. The group offers basic training, “intro to wrestling” workshops, and fantasy camps. The folks behind Renaissance Rumble tell us that they are a “radically inclusive” company that believes pro wrestling at its core is theater and that wrestling should be a safe space for everyone. Their ultimate goal is to build a thriving wrestling community in Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia.
Renaissance Rumble works closely with Flying V, a local theater group that promotes wrestling cards at the Black Box in Downtown Silver Spring. Flying V’s next show, BOWTIES & BLACKEYES, takes place on Saturday, October 8. You can find more information about that event here.

Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Services (MCFRS) were called to the scene of a 2nd alarm fire on the 3500 block of Landing Way off of Norbeck Rd near Georgia Avenue in Olney on Friday night. According to MCFRS PIO Pete Piringer, crews arrived on the scene at approximately 8pm and were able to knock down the bulk of the fire by 9pm. There were no injuries reported.
Eight townhouses in total were damaged by the fire and three families were unable to re-occupy their homes. Fire pit ashes that were placed inside a plastic trash bag and left outside near the ground-level deck are likely what ignited the fire, according to Piringer. Damages are estimated to be around $1,500.000.
On October 1, 2022, at approximately 7:30 a.m., Andy Amaya was last seen leaving his residence in the 2600 block of Elnora St. in Silver Spring. Amaya is 5-feet, 1-inch tall and weighs 120 lbs. He has brown eyes and black hair.
Amaya is believed to be with Kimberly Zuniga, who was also reported missing on October 1, 2022. They are likely to be traveling towards Baltimore in a 2019 gray Nissan Rouge SUV bearing Maryland license plate 3DY4445. Police and family are concerned for his welfare.
The award highlights the significant and successful efforts of the Mayor and Council, Planning Commission, staff and community, along with numerous other stakeholders, to produce a document that lays out Rockville’s vision for its future.
More than 1,000 people took part in the plan’s creation at more than 100 community meetings and workshops, public outreach events and listening sessions.
Maryland has become the second state in the county to ban the act of declawing cats, unless deemed necessary for therapeutic purposes. It was banned in New York in 2019. The bill was approved back in April and Governor Hogan signed it for the law to go into effect on October 1. Sen. Cheryl Kagan and Del. Lorig Charkoudian, both Montgomery County Democrats, were the lead sponsors for the bill in their respective houses.
According to the Humane Society, declawing involves the amputation of the last bone of each toe. If performed on a human being, it would be like cutting off each finger at the last knuckle.
On October 1, 2022, at approximately 2:30 p.m., Kimberly Zuniga was last seen leaving the shopping center in the 18300 block of Contour Rd. in Montgomery Village. She is driving a 2019 gray Nissan Rouge SUV bearing Maryland license plate 3DY4445.
Zuniga is approximately 5-feet, 5-inches tall and weighs 110 lbs. She has black hair, brown eyes and a pierced nostril. She was last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and multi colored pajama pants.
