A great crowd was on hand. In fact the organizers had to increase the field of teams because of the large crowd. While the organizers had originally planned for 20 lanes and 16 rounds, they quickly had to change to 21 rounds in 20 lanes.

Justin Godwin, a full-time Dothan Fire Captain and a volunteer fireman was the announcer. Houston County Sheriff Donald Valenza, a very good marksman and a Mr. Womack were the judges on the score cards.

A 15 year old was the overall winner.

The Town of Rehobeth, Mayor Kimberly Trotter and her Town council team have it together. They provide a lot of events with great attendance and fun. The Christmas Parade had 50% of the entries as does the National Peanut Festival.

D2 Houston County Commissioner Tracy Adams traveled across the districts to the Turkey Shoot. D2 Adams did not come to watch byt actually jumped in and helped the organizers and worked to make it a success.

Houston County Sheriff Chief Deputy Jeff Carlisle was on hand and participated. Taylor Councilman Merritt Carothers and Taylor Director of the Department of Public Safety Chris Judah.

HCSO ARREST FEDEX WORKER IN MISSING PACKAGES CASE

The Holmes County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) has made an arrest in the investigation of missing FedEx packages.

HCSO contacted FedEx to assist in identifying the driver assigned to deliver the missing packages. FedEx identified Latavion Lewis, a contracted worker from Alabama, as the individual responsible for delivery.

Deputies made contact with Lewis, who agreed to meet with deputies at the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office.

During the interview, Lewis admitted to deputies that, due to the late hour, he chose to discard the undelivered packages at several locations rather than return them to the FedEx warehouse.

As a result of the investigation, 44 packages have been recovered so far. The recovered packages went to the Bonifay Post Office, which ensured they were delivered to their rightful owners.

Lewis was taken into custody and charged with Organized Scheme to Defraud, Grand Theft, and Illegal Dumping.

Sheriff Tate commends the quick work of HCSO deputies in identifying and apprehending the suspect and thanks to the Bonifay Post Office for their role in locating and delivering the recovered packages.
