[ad_1]
CHESTERFIELD, Mo. – Some small businesses are struggling to stay afloat with high inflation and staffing shortages, while others are expanding. Billy G’s is opening a second location in Chesterfield, adding more than 100 jobs.
“I’ve got goosebumps right now,” said Allen Corzine, general manager at Billy G’s.
He said Thursday’s soft opening is a day that has been in the works for three and a half years.
“Having this little pop-up thing today, it was not planned to do this,” Corzine said. “Having this going on right now brings me joy to see my staff, my brand-new staff. Half my servers have never served before, but they’re picking it up so easy.”

The new location in Chesterfield has a different feel and menu than the original. Over in Chesterfield, breakfast is served all day.
“We’re going to have great omelets, great pancakes, great waffles, fresh fruit. Some amazing coffee as well,” said John Papapagianis, kitchen manager. “Definitely the omelets, specifically the one named after me. The Papa John, it’s a St. Louis pizza-inspired omelet. You’re going to have to come in and try it.”
Staff are hoping they’ll see new regulars at the Chesterfield location.
“Best in class; great people make great food, and great service, great atmosphere,” Corzine said. “I do truly believe that’s how we keep bringing people in, and that’s how we’re able to expand.”

JEFFERSON COUNTY, Mo. – Two people are behind bars after a man reportedly attacked a Jefferson County deputy with a screwdriver during an attempted arrest over the weekend.
Prosecutors have charged Nicholas Davis, 47, and Amanda Davis, 45, of Dittmer, Missouri, with felonies in the investigation.

The alleged attack followed a traffic stop of a driver in the 9500 block of Jones Creek Road on July 7, though the driver was not Nicholas or Amanda.
According to court documents obtained by FOX 2, Nicholas reportedly came out of his nearby home, yelled at a deputy and started approaching him while holding a screwdriver. The deputy initially ordered Nicholas to back away, then used pepper spray.
Per court documents, the deputy attempted to arrest Nicholas, who then struck him in the chest with the screwdriver. Amanda reportedly approached the deputy and pulled him away from Nicholas before both ran inside their home.
The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office says the situation prompted an hours-long standoff involving negotiators, a SWAT team and a K-9 deputy. The situation led to Nicholas refusing warnings and being bitten by a K-9.
Nicholas and Amanda are both jailed in the Jefferson County Jail without bond. Nicholas is charged with first-degree assault on a special victim and armed criminal action. Amanda is charged with resisting/interfering with arrest.

ST. LOUIS — A gasoline tanker truck crashed into a Metro transit center near Riverview and Hall Streets early Tuesday morning and knocked over a power pole. The pole is leaning on other power lines. Police have the area blocked off here because there is a downed power line. Ameren and Metro crews are also on the scene.
The incident happened around 12:30 a.m. It’s still unclear exactly what caused the crash, but we do that there was a second vehicle somehow involved. The airbags on that second vehicle did deploy.
Accused killer’s case thrown out over one question at trial
Police at the scene have not been able to give us a lot of details. Metro officials tell FOX 2 that the transit center here is operating this morning for passengers and buses. Access to certain areas will be limited here as clean up unfolds.
A Metro spokesperson says half of the station isn’t being used right now because of safety issues. It isn’t impacting overall bus operations, everything is just happening on the other side of transit center.
The extent of the damage to the actual transit center is still unclear, but I’m told it does not appear to be extreme. A Metro spokesperson tells me there were no injuries to any metro workers or passengers. The tanker driver also was not injured.
