(CBS) — A Georgia-based food company has recalled thousands of pounds of ready-to-eat chicken products, which were sold in seven different states, after determining the products may have been contaminated with listeria, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced. Suzanna’s Kitchen, headquartered in Norcross, Georgia, recalled roughly 13,720 pounds of its ready-to-eat grilled chicken breast fillet products, according to the Food Safety and Inspection Service, a branch of the Department of Agriculture. The recalled products were produced on Oct. 14, 2025, and sold in 10-pound cases containing two 5-pound bags of cooked grilled chicken breast fillets with rib meat, health officials said. They were sent to distribution centers for food service sales in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Carolina and Ohio. There have been no confirmed reports of illness linked to the consumption of the recalled products. Officials said the problem was discovered by a third-party laboratory, which tested the chicken fillets and reported a positive result for Listeria monocytogenes, a type of disease-causing bacteria that can infect people when they eat food that has been contaminated with it. The bacteria can be found in a number of places, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, including soil, water, sewage, vegetation and animals. It can survive and grow even when products it contaminates are refrigerated, and is generally transmitted when food is “harvested, processed, prepared, packed, transported, or stored in manufacturing or production environments contaminated with L. monocytogenes,” the FDA says. Listeria infections are the third-leading cause of death from foodborne illness in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which estimates that 1,250 people contract the infection each year and 172 people die from it. Although no illnesses have been reported in connection with the recalled products from Suzanna’s Kitchen, officials have encouraged anyone with concerns to contact a healthcare provider. Cases and packaging of potentially contaminated meat have the establishment number P-1382 inside the USDA mark of inspection. They also have the lot code 60104 P1382 287 5 J14. CBS News has reached out to Suzanna’s Kitchen for comment.

BOLIVIA, NC (WWAY) — On Saturday, fire crews responded to a structure fire at the Brunswick County Government Center in Bolivia. The fire occurred around 11:28 p.m. affecting building C. When crews arrived, they discovered heavy smoke from the garage of the building where an ambulance with an active fire was parked inside. Firefighters suppressed the fire before the fire could spread. No injuries were reported. One ambulance was totaled as a result of the fire. In a press release, it was noted that this was not one of the newest ambulances that entered the fleet in the Fall of 2025. Three different ambulances and two quick response vehicles were inside the garage at the time but no damages to them have been reported. Physical damages to the building are limited to the area surrounding the affected ambulance bay. The overall building, including the garage, are considered structurally sound. Staff and a restoration contractor will be on site this week to prepare for cleanup and conduct any additional inspections needed. In a press release, the county said, “Brunswick County EMS wants to assure the public that this incident will not hinder the County’s ability to provide effective and quick emergency medical services.” Multiple agencies responded including the Bolivia Volunteer Fire Department, Fire Stations 4, 6, 13, 18, 37, law enforcement, and EMS. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. Categories: Brunswick, Local, News, Top Stories Tags: Ambulance, Bolivia Volunteer Fire Department, Brunswick County Government Center, Fire

(AP)–Norway’s prime minister said Monday that he received a message from U.S. President Donald Trump about rising tensions over Greenland in which the American leader reportedly said he no longer felt obligated to think purely of peace since he did not receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump’s message to Jonas Gahr Støre, first reported by PBS, appears to ratchet up a standoff between Washington and its closest allies over his threats to take over Greenland, a self-governing territory of NATO member Denmark. To force European countries that have rallied around Denmark and Greenland toward talks, Trump on Saturday announced a 10% import tax starting in February on goods from eight nations, including Norway. Those countries issued a forceful rebuke. But British Prime Minister Keir Starmer sought to de-escalate tensions on Monday. While the White House has not ruled taking control of the strategic Arctic island by force, Starmer said he did not believe military action would occur. “I think this can be resolved and should be resolved through calm discussion,” he said. Still, the American leader’s message to Gahr Støre could further fracture a U.S.-European relationship already strained by differences over how to end the nearly four-year war in Ukraine, previous rounds of tariffs, military spending and migration policy. In a sign of how tensions have increased in recent days, thousands of Greenlanders marched over the weekend in protest of any effort to take over their island. Greenland Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said in a Facebook post Monday that the tariff threats would not change the their stance. “We will not be pressured,” he wrote. “We stand firm on dialogue, on respect, and on international law.” Trump sends a message to the Norwegian leader In a post on social media, PBS reported that Trump said in a message to Gahr Støre: “Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.” It concluded: “The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland.” PBS said the message had been forwarded to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. Gahr Støre confirmed Monday that he had received a text message from Trump but did not release its contents. The White House did not respond to a request for comment. Gahr Støre said Trump’s message was a reply to an earlier missive sent on behalf of himself and Finnish President Alexander Stubb, in which they conveyed their opposition to the tariff announcement, pointed to a need to de-escalate, and proposed a telephone conversation among the three leaders. “Norway’s position on Greenland is clear. Greenland is a part of the Kingdom of Denmark, and Norway fully supports the Kingdom of Denmark on this matter,” Støre said. “As regards the Nobel Peace Prize, I have clearly explained, including to president Trump what is well known, the prize is awarded by an independent Nobel Committee and not the Norwegian Government.” The Norwegian Nobel Committee is an independent body whose five members are appointed by the Norwegian Parliament. Trump has openly coveted the peace prize, which the committee awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado last year. Last week, Machado presented her Nobel medal to Trump, who said he planned to keep it though the committee said the prize can’t be revoked, transferred or shared with others. Starmer says a trade war is in no one’s interest In his latest threat of tariffs, Trump indicated they would be retaliation for last week’s deployment of symbolic numbers of troops from the European countries to Greenland — though he also suggested that he was using the tariffs as leverage to negotiate with Denmark. European governments said that the troops traveled to the island for Arctic security training…
