Meanwhile, South Mississippi is experiencing a rainy Sunday morning with showers and storms moving onshore, accompanied by hot temperatures and heat indices near 100-105°F. Afternoon and evening storms may bring gusty winds and lightning. A front drifting offshore in the northeastern Gulf could bring tropical development in the next 5-7 days but poses no immediate threat to the area. Rain chances remain high into the week.

SUMMARY: Two men from Saucier, Cameron Coffman and Christopher Bunch, were arrested and charged with distributing fentanyl that caused a fatal overdose on June 7 in Harrison County. Deputies and the Harrison County Narcotics Task Force responded to the overdose on Saucier-Lizana Road, where a 35-year-old man was found dead with fentanyl in his possession. The investigation led to the arrests, which involved D’Iberville Police, Homeland Security, and the DEA. The charges are filed under Parker’s Law, passed in 2022, which imposes harsher sentences for anyone distributing fentanyl that results in an overdose death.

A search warrant was executed at two different locations in Saucier, and Coffman and Bunch were arrested.
