Sheriff Thomas Vaughan said a Sunday arrest confirmed the presence of a drug known as “ice” in Yazoo County.
Christopher David Hasty, 42, was arrested with a small bag of ice and several syringes during a traffic stop.
Vaughan said that ice is a form of crystal meth that is much more pure than what is normally encountered. It looks like small glass crystals and is usually smoked or heated until it becomes liquid and injected. -------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.
