A rash of burglaries and acts of vandalism spread through Yazoo over the Labor Day holiday.
Chief Eric Snow said his department is currently investigating a series of crimes that occurred over the rainy weekend.
Several vehicles were discovered both burglarized and vandalized Sunday in the Country Club Drive area.
“A random group of suspects went through the area checking to see what vehicles were unlocked,” Snow said. “Some items were taken from vehicles while others were vandalized.” -------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
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.
