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."

On paper, the Caterpillar Pickup checks all the boxes but one big one. On the positive side it is an automotive marvel. It is really good looking and has a far more classic pickup truck appearance than the Tesla Cybertruck monstrosity. It is designed for work but looks really nice. It has impressive ground clearance, built-in step rail, a really nice functional truck bed with multiple 120-volt plugs, an engineering wonder of a tail-gate that splits horizontally, decent (for a truck) aerodynamics, an integrated hidden winch, a huge cab, and some interesting power options that include a 500 HP Diesel with 1,000 lb. of Torque, a hybrid version with 450 HP and 600 lb. of Torque with an optimal 40-mile electric range, and an electric version with 600 HP and 850 lb. of torque (available at 0 RPMs) and a up to 300 miles of range.
