Good morning, this is your Flagstaff Local Frequency for Saturday, August 30, 2025.
We begin today’s roundup with updates on community safety. Flagstaff Police have arrested Tyler John Edmonds, 30, for firing a handgun near Baddies Food Joint on South San Francisco Street early Thursday morning. Thanks to witness descriptions and advanced Flock Safety License Plate Reader technology, police tracked Edmonds’ light-colored SUV and, with help from the Northern Arizona Regional SWAT team, made the arrest that afternoon. Edmonds faces charges including disorderly conduct with a weapon and discharging a weapon within city limits, but thankfully, no one was injured in the incident. Police credit the speedy resolution to cooperation between locals, businesses, and technology, noting their commitment to keeping Flagstaff safe.
After all the serious news, let’s look at what’s happening around town today. If you’re in the mood for a movie as the weekend begins, Flagstaff 16 has a full lineup, from blockbusters to indie flicks. Grab some popcorn and enjoy the cool comfort of the theater while the August sun is out.
For live music and festival fans, keep an eye on upcoming events at Pepsi Amphitheater in Fort Tuthill County Park. September brings the much-loved Pickin’ in the Pines Bluegrass Festival, with multi-day passes still available. If you’re planning ahead, these events promise outstanding performances and a great outdoor atmosphere, so mark your calendars and consider rounding up friends and family.
Nature lovers should note that next Saturday, September 6, Snowbowl Road will be closed from 6 a.m. until noon for the annual Climb to Conquer Cancer fundraiser. While the road will be closed for the event, popular trails around the area remain open, and Snowbowl staff will be on hand to help visitors with alternate routes and parking. Whether you’re joining the climb to support cancer research or just want to enjoy Flagstaff’s scenic mountain views, plan accordingly to avoid traffic delays.
On a different note, the local animal shelter is putting out a heartfelt plea for help. Currently at double their usual capacity, they’re hoping residents can step up to foster or adopt pets in need. If you’ve been thinking about adding a furry companion to your household or have the time to foster, now is the perfect opportunity to make a meaningful impact for Flagstaff’s four-legged friends.
There’s never a shortage of things to do in Flagstaff—from tuning in to community updates and supporting local organizations, to catching events and enjoying our vibrant outdoors. Stay aware, stay engaged, and remember that even small actions can ripple through our city.
