One of the most beautiful features of Lincoln Parish is the diversity, brought here by our two incredible universities. It’s a rare treat to see so much talent and cultural richness in such a small footprint and it’s particularly heartwarming when our friends from all over the world decide to become our neighbors indefinitely.
Methamphetamine found on traffic stop
The Lincoln Parish Sheriff’s Office arrested a motorist for drug possession Thursday night after she was stopped for a traffic violation. Jennifer M. Woods-Lowery, 41, of Ruston, was stopped about 10 p.m. Thursday night when a deputy saw that her white Mercedes did not have working taillights. The vehicle was stopped on U.S. 167 and the deputy explained the nature of the violation. A records check showed the driver was wanted by Ruston Police on an active bench warrant for theft of property under $1000.
Letter to the editor: Parish in need of animal shelter
I am writing you as a concerned citizen, animal lover, and volunteer for 4 Paws Rescue. I drive throughout the entire parish for work, and I am tired of seeing stray dogs either dumped at dumpsters, abandoned on rural roads, or strictly just not being cared for. We have no spay/neuter laws so animals are continuing to reproduce which makes the crisis continue.
