I thought I had a tiny kitchen in my old apartment — I never thought it could get much smaller. Unfortunately, the kitchen in my new studio has proved me wrong. Only one person can fit in there at a time, and you don’t even have to move to reach the sink, stove, or fridge (all of which are squished within three feet of each other). Don’t get me wrong — I can get by well enough, but there are some sacrifices I’ve had to make. One of the biggest? Forgoing a full-size trash can.

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."
