Clay County burglary suspect wanted
SUMMARY: Clay County deputies are searching for 22-year-old Asa Lester, implicated in a home burglary on Monday in western Clay County. He allegedly stole three guns, two computers, a guitar, and jewelry from a residence on Joe Thompson Road. Additionally, Lester is suspected of stealing a blue 1994 GMC pickup truck with Mississippi license plates in Webster County, which may have been used during the burglary. Authorities encourage anyone with information to contact the Clay County Sheriff’s Office or Golden Triangle Crime Stoppers.
Investigators are still trying to find the person responsible for a home burglary in Clay County.
SUMMARY: A significant software glitch is disrupting Mississippi’s driver license bureaus, with operations expected to resume by the week’s end. The Department of Public Safety revealed that a routine update from a third-party vendor caused the issues, resulting in 2 to 3-hour wait times at various offices. Currently, only limited services, such as gun permits and ID cards, are being offered. Commissioner Tindle addressed accountability and future contracts with the vendor to prevent recurrence. He urged the public to remain patient as staff work diligently to resolve the chaos caused by the tech failure.
Mississippi DMVs could return to normal by the end of the week.
SUMMARY: Residents of the Georgetown community in Jackson are frustrated with the ongoing closure of a bridge on Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, which has been shut for years. Reverend PJ Williams and local leaders feel neglected after promises to repair the bridge went unmet. The closure has led to accidents, disrupted community activities, and a growing pothole emitting foul odors. Despite addressing the city council and mayor, no action has been taken. Reverend Williams emphasizes the urgency of the situation, calling for immediate repairs. Efforts to get a response from the city have been unsuccessful.
