Brooklet, GA

Officers stopped 22-year-old Skyler Hibbs in a black Ford F-150 on July 3rd. Officers approached the vehicle and observed Hibbs in the passenger seat making furtive movements. Officers asked the driver if they could search the car, but the driver denied them. Police Service Dogs were deployed, and they displayed a positive indication of narcotics in the vehicles. When officers explained that the car had to be searched, Hibbs told them she had “rigs” in her purse. A search of Hibbs’ purse revealed three syringes, a plastic pipe, burnt foil, a small glass jar that contained fentanyl and heroin, and a Ruger Max 9 handgun. Once Hibbs was informed about her Miranda Rights, she confessed that she was a daily user of heroin and fentanyl and that she used a point to an “8 ball” a day for numerous months. A check of Hibbs’ handgun revealed that it was stolen out of North Carolina. A search of Hibbs’ person yielded a 9mm bullet, another pipe, a folded piece of paper containing heroin and fentanyl in her sock, and a small baggie of heroin and fentanyl in her pants. Skyler Hibbs was taken into custody and charged with theft, simple possession, unlawful possession of a weapon, and unlawful drug paraphernalia.

New Shadtron™ LT merges realism & durability with cutting-edge line-through hook system. Ladson, SC (July 15, 2024) – A golden age of angling now under the bridge, the era of true-to-life swimbaits and bass of freakish, blimp-like proportions still reminds us of the lures’ potentially outlandish attracting power. Everyone who once slung these big slabs of PVC has a crazy fish story to tell. But what swimbait practitioners today still mourn are the number of fish most of these lures fail to hook— and how frequently the gill-rattling headshake of a big bass can eject the baits and crush our spirits in one breath.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.
