A careless driving traffic stop uncovered a vehicle loaded with a variety of drugs last week.
Sheriff Thomas Vaughan said deputy Britt Johnson saw a truck run off the road on U.S. 49 near Myrleville Road. When Johnson stopped the vehicle, he smelled alcohol.
“The driver had a suspended license and no insurance, and it just went downhill from there,” Vaughan said.
The driver, Chad Davidson, 24, of Vicksburg said he only had a couple of beers to drink. He then gave officers consent to search the vehicle, where officers found three passengers and a smorgasbord of drugs.

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
