A utility truck registered to a Florida company and one of the truck-trailers that have been removing storm debris from the area met at the intersection of Center Drive and Estroff Drive Wednesday around 5:30. The collision caused the debris hauler to end up in the front yard at 1606 Center and the trailer portion was turned on its side. The utility truck suffered significant damage to its front end and police reports indicate the passenger of that vehicle complained of minor injuries to his leg and ribs.

IN HONOR OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH — Ms. Anderson's second grade class at Wheeler County Elementary School honored Black History Month by exploring the lives of notable African American historical figures. Over the past two weeks, they focused on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and his pivotal role in ending segregation. The students engaged in a thoughtful craft activity where they reflected on what they know about Dr. King’s legacy. This exercise encouraged them to consider the lasting impact of his work and how our lives have been improved because of his efforts. After completing their writing, the students added a craft element — two hands, one colored and one white, joined together by a heart. The class also held a meaningful discussion about equality and the importance of love and respect for all people.
