SUMMARY: Business owners in Baldwin may soon be able to sell alcohol on Sundays, as the mayor has suggested. Aldermen will discuss approving Sunday alcohol sales, citing potential benefits such as increased tax revenue for infrastructure projects and attracting other businesses. However, some residents are concerned about the impact on observing the Lord's day. The decision will consider the views of the community, especially churches. If approved, Aldermen will need to set a specific time frame for alcohol sales. The group will convene next month to further discuss this proposal. Ultimately, the goal is to ensure the happiness and contentment of residents in the city.
Mayor Roslynn Clark said aldermen will meet to discuss approving alcohol sales on Sundays.
SUMMARY: The Rankin County Sheriff's Office is facing a new federal lawsuit alleging that “goon squad” Deputy Christian Dedmon and others tortured a man with a K-9. The lawsuit, filed on April 30, names Sheriff Bryan Bailey and Dedmon as defendants, among others. The incident occurred in 2021 when Bobbie Adams was allegedly bitten by a K-9 named Voodoo after being arrested for a meth sale. Adams claims he was already handcuffed and not resisting arrest when the dog attacked him, causing punctured wounds and bone dislocation. Adams, who is serving time for the sale of methamphetamines, is seeking justice through this lawsuit.
A man has filed a lawsuit claiming member of the Rankin County Sheriff's Department commanded a K9 to attack him after he was arrested.

SUMMARY: More than 600 vendors will be selling a variety of items at the Canton Square flea market, including home decor and Mother's Day gifts. The event is highly anticipated each year, with hundreds of people attending. Vendors enjoy showcasing their offerings and one vendor expressed his enthusiasm for the event despite his age. The market is held twice a year, but some hope for more frequent events to attract more visitors.
