SUMMARY: Scrim, a Houdini-like dog, has become New Orleans’ Mardi Gras mascot this Carnival season, making a splash during the Krewe Du Vieux parade with a float featuring him as a hot dog. After nearly four months on the run since his escape from an adoptive home, Scrim was finally captured in a cat trap on February 11. His handlers, Zeus’ Rescues, highlighted the challenges in capturing him, including failed attempts using a net gun and tranquilizers. Scrim will also appear in the Mystic Krewe of Barkus parade on February 23, alongside a specialty float dedicated to him.

SUMMARY: Darryl Lumpkins, a homeowner in Algiers, faced a lack of water service last fall, which was later repaired. However, the water line fix has caused a new issue: a damaged street. While Lumpkins now has water and a tenant, the street remains in poor condition, with a gravel pit-like surface. Despite contacting the city and requesting repairs, she has received no response. The Sewage and Water Board stated that necessary sewer repairs were completed, and they are coordinating sidewalk and paving restoration, but Lumpkins is still waiting for action on the street’s condition.
