Meet and greet with Caledonia Chief Marshal
SUMMARY: Caledonia's new Chief Marshal, Lauren Rhea, recently met with the public for the first time at a meet and greet event hosted by the Marshal Department at the town hall. Rhea, a retired Lt. Colonel with three decades of military experience, transitioned into law enforcement before assuming his current role in Caledonia about two months ago. He emphasized the difference between working for larger departments and the community-oriented policing approach in a small town like Caledonia. Rhea expressed his dedication to responding to the needs and requests of the community while reporting to the town mayor.

SUMMARY: A strong storm system caused significant damage in Columbus, Mississippi, with high winds bringing down power lines and trees, including on the MUW campus. Emergency crews received numerous calls for help, with some people trapped in their homes. Firefighters responded to multiple house fires, with one resulting in major loss. The storm has been classified as a straight-line wind event, not a tornado. Crews are working to clean up debris and restore power, and officials are urging people to avoid affected areas for safety reasons. The tornado sirens were not activated because there was no tornado warning in the area.
