Man accused of murdering Southern Miss nursing student relocated to Forrest County jail
SUMMARY: Bricen Rivers, 23, accused of murdering Southern Miss nursing student Lauren Johansen, 22, has been moved to the Forrest County Adult Detention Center from a Mississippi Gulf Coast facility. Johansen’s body was found in early July in a car at Wolf River Cemetery after Rivers was seen fleeing the scene. A manhunt led to his capture. Investigators believe the murder occurred outside the coastal area, prompting the case to shift jurisdictions. A paperwork error in Tennessee allowed Rivers to escape prior custody. He faces three charges related to Johansen’s death, with his court appearance scheduled for Friday.

Doctor’s advice: Helping your child cope with seasonal allergies
SUMMARY: Seasonal allergies, or allergic rhinitis, can affect children from age 3, especially those with eczema or asthma. Symptoms include itchy and runny noses, red or watery eyes, sneezing, coughing, and fatigue. Approximately 20% of children experience these allergies, triggered by pollen and mold, leading to inflammatory responses like congestion. Prevention involves minimizing exposure by keeping windows closed during high pollen counts and showering after outdoor activities. Allergy testing can help identify specific triggers, while various over-the-counter medications, such as antihistamines and nasal sprays, are available for relief. Consulting a doctor is advised for tailored treatment.
