EDWARDSVILLE — A judge has denied pretrial release for a defendant charged with first-degree murder in the stabbing death of a man in Collinsville, according to Madison County State’s Attorney Tom Haine. Haine had filed a petition seeking pretrial detention of Carlos G. Mosley, 23, of Belleville.

For the past seven weeks, Metro Transit has been experimenting with a change to MetroLink service — and it's getting an earful from riders who aren't happy about it. The public transit agency announced in late September that it would begin putting some single-car trains into service instead of its normal trains, which include two cars.  Metro Transit framed the change as a pilot project that would allow "more flexibility" that "provides opportunities to try out new innovative options that may better serve the changing travel patterns of our MetroLink riders.” But as the experiment has continued into its seventh week, with no end date publicly announced, some riders have grown fed up.
