SUMMARY: Woodland has introduced over 85 scarecrows in its downtown area, showcasing a variety of professions, time periods, hobbies, and fictional characters. Created from straw and adorned with clothes and craft supplies, these homemade scarecrows aim to beautify the town for the fall season and engage the community. The initiative began a month ago, focusing on fun and creativity. Residents can enjoy the display, which will remain up until the end of November.
The Town of Woodland has more than 85 scarecrows set up for autumn.
SUMMARY: A death row inmate had his appeal denied last week, while Flowood police are investigating a fatal crash that occurred around 6:00 AM at the intersection of Treetops Boulevard and Flowood Drive. The collision involved a motorcycle and a Ford pickup truck, resulting in the death of 33-year-old Matthew Walker from Brandon, who was riding the motorcycle.

SUMMARY: MEMA advises that a good first step for disaster preparedness is to have a kit that includes flashlights, canned food, and ample water. In legal news, the U.S. Supreme Court has denied an appeal from Leslie Galloway, a Mississippi death row inmate. This marks the second denial for Galloway, who was convicted in 2008 for the rape and murder of a Gulfport high school senior. The Supreme Court’s ruling follows a similar decision from Mississippi’s high court last year.
