Electric automotive technology isn't necessarily a new thing, but it has become substantially more popular in recent years as brands push to lower their overall carbon footprint. A conventional electric car design possesses far fewer moving parts , making the overall drivetrain a lot more efficient when compared to your average ICE design. Couple this with the fact that you don't need any fossil fuels to power an EV, and you'll find that this newer technology is a lot more of a logical choice for new automotive designs. Of course, this puts the debate of which configuration is more enjoyable to the side, as EVs generally have a reputation for being dull and soulless.

Douglas, GA

Daily Coffee Press

A man out on probation for drug charges less than a year ago and a woman from Douglas were recently arrested following a search at a local apartment. On August 7, 2024, at around 1:00 PM, Detectives from the Coffee County Sheriff's Office Drug Unit were conducting a proactive narcotics patrol in Douglas. During their patrol, a detective spotted 30-year-old Christopher Lamar Hawkins, who had outstanding warrants for fleeing police and methamphetamine possession, driving a white 2021 Kia Sorento. Hawkins was stopped in front of apartment 203/204 on N Wheeler Ave, where two detectives approached him. Breanna Henderson, 33, then came out of apartment 203 to "investigate what was going on with Hawkins" and appeared to whisper with Hawkins during his arrest. The report states that Henderson, who temporarily lived with Hawkins, began whispering with him "presumably about nefarious activities due to Hawkins's previous history with drug distribution and evading law enforcement."
