Rodent shutdown, restaurant scores in Coral Springs. Plus, a $50,000 fraud case
Three recent stories about Coral Springs covered several topics, including a rodent infestation at a convenience store, restaurant health inspections and a $50,000 identity-fraud scheme tied to a stolen phone.
Here’s a rundown to catch up:
