    Petersburg's own Trey Songz was back in town last weekend - surprising more than 100 children by paying for their haircuts.

The kids, all members of the city's Parks & Leisure Services After School Program, did not know who was behind the invite - until the door opened and Songz walked in.

    "Time froze for a second as the young people finally realized that their big weekend surprise was all due to their idol Trey Songz," said Tami Yerby, of Parks and Leisure Services.
