City leaders find ways to stop shootings in Columbus city limits
SUMMARY: City officials in Columbus are cracking down on gun violence, with plans to increase fines and potentially require jail time for those who fire guns in city limits. City Council members, including Steven Jones, are working on implementing stricter penalties to address the issue. Jones emphasized the need for consequences to create fear of the law and deter individuals from engaging in gun violence. The conversation about this initiative began last week, and it is expected to be voted on during the next city council meeting. Residents are supportive of these efforts to address the ongoing problem of gun violence in Columbus.

SUMMARY: Months of work on the River Avenue Bridge connecting Hattisburg and Pedal in Forrest County have been delayed, leaving drivers still unable to use it. Leaders say the bridge is nearing completion but are unable to provide a projected opening date due to unforeseen delays caused by rain. Crews still need to grind down uneven spots in the concrete before painting the railing and allowing traffic. Once completed, a portion of South Main Street will close for drainage pipe installation. While they work to finish the project, drivers are reminded to be cautious and patient around the construction site.

SUMMARY: The deadline to file for the 2020 tax year is Friday, May 17th, and approximately 940,000 people have unclaimed refunds totaling $1 billion. The average refund is over $900. If you worked a few weeks or months in 2020 but didn't earn enough to require filing a tax return, you may still be eligible for a refund. If you don't file a tax return, you forfeit the money to the IRS. The deadline to claim your refund from 2020 is three years later, so if you haven't done so yet, you should do it by May 17th.
