SUMMARY: Dixie Electric Power Association hosted a free energy fair at Lowe's in Laurel, with additional fairs at Pedal and Wesboro earlier in the week.

The association also distributed free LED light bulbs. The event aimed to help residents manage rising electricity costs due to increased thermostat use in hot weather.

SUMMARY: Good evening, I'm Craig Ford. Emily Leonard has the evening off. Thanks for joining us for WTV 9 News at 6. A woman in Monroe County encountered an unexpected visitor during her morning commute. Jennifer Adams found a large snake hitching a ride on her car on Smithville Road near Hatley. Initially mistaking it for a man on a horse, Adams was horrified to realize it was a snake emerging from under her hood. She believes the snake was trying to reach a bird's nest using her SUV for height leverage. The snake, likely a nonvenomous rat snake, eventually fell off her car. Reporting live, Jake White, WTV 9 News.

SUMMARY: Welcome to this week's Friday Fur Baby segment! Today, Judy Seabrook from the Mississippi Animal Rescue League introduces Roxy, a 2-year-old Rottweiler. Roxy is sweet, calm, and loves affection, although her previous owners couldn't spend enough time with her. She's on Heart Guard preventative and would benefit from a fenced yard. Roxy is friendly with other dogs and is described as a “tub of love” by the staff. Interested adopters can bring their current pets to ensure compatibility and fill out an adoption application online or in person. The rescue is open Tuesday through Saturday for visits.
