CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A quarter-mile stretch of Shaker Boulevard soon will bear the honorary designation of "Don King Way," after the legendary and often controversial boxing promoter, who was born and raised in Cleveland and launched his career here. City Council on Monday voted to adopt the secondary name for the eastbound portion of the road between East 116th and East 121st streets. The stretch is home to the Call & Post newspaper, which King has owned since 1998. Councilwoman Mamie Mitchell,..>> view originalJohnny Manziel attends Justin Bieber concert with Joe Haden in ...

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- You've never seen an arena of Cleveland teen girls as happy as when Justin Bieber put on a Cavaliers jersey. Of course, until he performed his mega-hit "Sorry" wearing a white tank top in a onstage waterfall. Bieber's "Purpose" tour stop at The Q was filled with theatrics, hits from the singer's albums and a whole lot of screaming.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- After months of speculation, the NFL Draft is nearly here. The Cleveland Browns have already made one trade, moving out of the No. 2 spot and allowing the Philadelphia Eagles to position themselves for one of the top two quarterbacks. It will be the second straight year that QB's go back-to-back to start the draft. But the Browns, known to want more picks for their latest roster reconstruction, aren't done dealing yet.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- There is steam gaining linking the Cleveland Browns to Ole Miss wide receiver Laquan Treadwell. Most of the rumors have the Browns trading down from the No. 8 pick with someone looking to move up to take Ohio State's Ezekiel Elliott. What if there are not takers for that No. 8 pick, though, and Treadwell is still the guy the Browns want? What if the Browns like Josh Doctson better? Should they pick a wide receiver eighth overall even if it's considered reaching? That topic c..>> view originalCruz taps Fiorina to serve as running mate
INDIANAPOLIS — In need of momentum after a five-state shutout, Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz on Wednesday tapped former technology executive Carly Fiorina — a woman who he said has repeatedly "shattered glass ceilings" — to serve as his running mate.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Cody Anderson ran out of leash Tuesday night at Target Field. The Indians sent their struggling right-handed starter to Class AAA Columbus before Wednesday night's game and recalled lefty Kyle Crockett. The Indians will go with a four-man rotation until May 7 when they play Kansas City at Progressive Field. They could then recall Anderson to make that start because he will have been in the minors for the required 10 days. If Anderson still isn't straightened out by then, they wi..>> view originalWhy courts agreed a Cleveland cop who stabbed her boyfriend ...
CLEVELAND, Ohio – A Cleveland police officer who stabbed her boyfriend cannot be fired, an arbitrator ruled. Now two courts have backed the arbitrator, illustrating just how hard it is to overturn an arbitrator's decision. That's the way it's supposed to be, a legal expert says. Cleveland sought to fire officer Shani Hannah in 2012, after she got drunk, hit and stabbed her boyfriend and then threatened suicide. She pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault, after being charged with felonious ass..>> view original'Fast & Furious 8' will shoot in Cleveland in May and June
