SUMMARY: A man was arrested in Rankin County, Mississippi after deputies discovered 22 pounds of fentanyl during a traffic stop on Interstate 20. The driver, Arturo Gonsen-Miranda, was charged with aggravated trafficking of a controlled substance. The arrest was made after the deputies developed probable cause that the driver may be involved in drug trafficking. A K-9 partner named “Voodoo” alerted on the vehicle, leading to the discovery of two false compartments where the fentanyl was found. Gonsen-Miranda was taken to the Rankin County Jail, and no bond has been set for him at this time.

SUMMARY: The Jackson Public School District (JPS) has launched a Request for Proposal (RFP) process and a new Repurposing Initiative Webpage to promote the reuse and redevelopment of surplus school sites in Jackson. This initiative aims to revitalize the properties and transform them into assets for the community. Several schools are set to close in the 2024-2025 school year, with plans for consolidation at a later date. JPS officials have received a lot of interest in the surplus properties and encourage competitive proposals through the RFP process and webpage for review by the Board of Trustees.
