The top local stories this evening from the KERA Newsroom:

There’s a new kind of ATM in town and it doesn’t spit out dollar bills. It’s a Bitcoin ATM and several North Texas businesses now take the digital currency. And Ron Anderson, the doctor who ran Dallas County’s largest medical center for nearly 30 years, died Thursday night.

You can listen to the top local news stories weekdays at 6:20 p.m. and 8:20 a.m. on KERA 90.1 FM.
