One dead after car goes into Ross Barnett Reservoir in Ridgeland
SUMMARY: A car plunged into the Ross Barnett Reservoir in Ridgeland early Thursday, leading to one person's death and another being hospitalized. Crews arrived around 5:15 a.m. following a WLBT report, and managed to rescue one individual while another was found deceased in the water. The authorities have not released any identities as they continue their efforts to extract the car and determine the cause of the incident. This event happened one day after a separate incident where a boat fire at the reservoir caused two people and their dog to jump into the water, although no injuries were reported from that situation.

SUMMARY: Rolling Fork has received over $1.3 million from FEMA for debris cleanup after March 2023 tornadoes. Work from May 26 to Sept. 22, 2023, included removing 192,742 cubic yards of construction, 7,841 cubic yards of vegetative, and 4,869 cubic yards of concrete debris. The EF-4 tornado and severe storms devastated Rolling Fork, affecting a third of its 2,000 residents by destroying homes and businesses, and accounting for most of the 21 fatalities in Mississippi. The disaster's aftermath still impacts the community, evident in the slow rebuilding process and the mourning of lost lives.

SUMMARY: Mississippi's Wild Hog Control Program (WHCP) is accepting applications. Agriculture Commissioner Andy Gipson highlighted the significant damage wild hogs cause, urging those with affected private agricultural or forestry lands to apply for traps. With wild hogs responsible for over $60 million in damage yearly in Mississippi, the WHCP provides traps and training for effective management. Applications are online and evaluated based on acreage, historical damage, and present trapping efforts. Small acreage owners are encouraged to apply cooperatively. Traps are allocated for month-long periods, at a suggested rate of one per 500 to 1,000 acres.
