Sunday is (usually) QuickHits! day, so let’s take a look at some of the stories that have caught my eye over the past week.
Here comes the QuickHits! Big Board…
- A sad Happy Trails! to former Franklin County Sheriff Ewell Hunt. The embattled former sheriff died Saturday at the age of 60.
- Martinsville’s Crazy Councilwoman Sharon Hodge goes down to defeat on her fluoride in the drinking water nutball conspiracy.
- Appomattox’s attempt at a Chinese furniture company may open up by February 2016, so they say. Didn’t GOK say the same type of things?
- A former bouncer at Highlander’s picks up even more prison time on more drug charges.
- The town of Pamplin is theoretically bankrupt.
- A police impersonator causes trouble by… um, starting false rumors?
- The murder weapon was a carburetor. That’s something I’ve never written before.
- I think this is technically a breaking-and-entering incident.
- Dan Casey tells us about the upcoming Roanoke Christmas Parade and its… wait for it… Confederate flag controversy.
- New Star-Tribune reporter Bobby Roach takes us on a tour of Chatham’s Cruise-In.
Whew. That’s ten reading assignments for you today…. but we know you love them.
We’ve got more coming up on SouthsideCentral!
