From turnpike renovations to world class soccer, there’s plenty happening in the next few days here in South Florida. Here’s a preview of The Week Ahead:
New Details in Rape Case: New details are expected tomorrow in the alleged rape of a South Florida woman by two newlyweds from out of state. The victim in the case is set to speak out tomorrow about her alleged abduction and assault, by the same woman who was arrested days earlier for walking naked through a convenience store.
El Clasico Ticket Sales: Tickets go on sale Monday afternoon for practice sessions ahead of the “El Clasico” match. The practice for the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona is set for next Friday afternoon, ahead of the big game on July 29th at Hard Rock Stadium.
Medical Marijuana on Miami Beach: On Tuesday, residents of Miami Beach will have the opportunity to voice their thoughts on medical marijuana on the island.

Turnpike Renovations: On Wednesday, Miami-Dade County residents will have the opportunity to speak their mind about proposed changes to the Florida Turnpike on Wednesday.
