Columbus police chase ends in suspect driving to jail in Al.

COLUMBUS, Georgia 
A police chase in Columbus on Saturday night ended with the suspect driving himself to the jail.
Randell Lawarn Malone, 22, was arrested after leading Columbus police on a 20-minute chase that ended at the Russell County Sheriff's Office, which is beside the Russell County Jail in Phenix City.
Columbus officers were looking the man who robbed a Seale Road store, when 30 minutes later Malone ran a stop sign driving a car matching the description of the suspect's car, according to the report. When the officer turned on his lights, Malone took off, police say.
Malone was wanted for second-degree theft of property in a separate incident, police say, but he is not a suspect in the Saturday robbery. He now faces additional charges of attempting to elude police and traffic violations.

Florida, Alabama must take water wars case to Supreme Court after appeals court rebuff

ATLANTA, Ga.
A federal appeals court will not reconsider a ruling that confirmed metro's Atlanta legal right to tap Lake Lanier for water.
The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected a request Friday from Alabama and Florida to reconsider the ruling that came from a three-judge appeals panel this summer. Lawyers were first notified of the decision Monday.
If Alabama and Florida want to pursue the case, they must now appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. Both states say Georgia uses too much water, hurting people and wildlife downstream.
Georgia attorney R. Todd Silliman says he's pleased by the ruling. Alabama attorney Matthew Lembke had not been formally notified of the decision Monday and declined to comment. An attorney for Florida did not immediately return a message seeking comment.

Beaten man found in Monsoons lot; woman charged with intimidating witness

MOBILE, Alabama 

Cynthia Murphy

A 57-year-old Mobile woman faces charges accusing her of intimidating a witness after she reportedly went to another woman's house Saturday night and attacked her, police said in a news release.
This one of several incidents police handled over the weekend, officials said.
On Saturday about 8:10 p.m. officers responded to the 900 block of Cottrell Street for what they thought was a domestic violence call. The victim told police that a woman identified as Cynthia Murphy came to her residence and threatened her about being a witness to a commercial robbery that occurred in July, police said. Murphy then assaulted the victim while threatening her, officials said.
Police arrested Murphy, also finding that she had drug paraphernalia in her possession.
Murphy was booked into Mobile County Metro Jail about 10:48 p.m. Saturday and released about an hour later, with a total bail set at $3,500, according to jail records. She is scheduled to appear in court Oct. 3, records show.
Early Sunday morning, about 2:40 a.m., officers were called to the Mobile Infirmary Medical Center emergency room to investigate an assault that occurred in the parking lot of Monsoons at 9 N. Jackson St. downtown, police said. The male victim is listed in critical condition at the University of South Alabama Medical Center, but is improving as of this morning, officials said.
Anyone with information about what may have happened in this incident is asked to call the Mobile Police Department at 251-208-7211, Crime Stoppers at 251-208-7000, or to send a text to 274637 and include the keywords CRIME 411.
On Sunday at about 12:10 p.m., a 55-year-old male victim was making repairs to a rental house in the 5800 block of Gallen Avenue when a man armed with a handgun walked in and demanded his wallet, police said. The victim gave the gunman his wallet. The gunman left in the victim’s 2004 black Ford F-150.
The robber is described as a black male with a dark complexion, about 16-18 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing about 165 to 170 pounds. He was last seen wearing a white tank top and brown pants.
In a separate incident that occurred about 10:55 p.m. Sunday, 2 men entered the Circle K in the 5600 block of Moffett Road, one armed with a shotgun, the other with a handgun. The gunmen demanded that the store clerk open the register and after taking money, they left on foot, police said.
The first robber is described as a black male, between 26 and 29 years old, about 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighing about 165-170 pounds. He was last seen wearing all-black clothing with a black ski mask with the eyes and mouth cut out.
The second robber is described as a black male, about 5 feet 9 inches tall, weighing about 155 to 165 pounds. He had a black mask over his face, police said.

DeKalb and Jackson County authorities combine on meth lab raid

DUTTON, Alabama 
DeKalb and Jackson County authorities raided a methamphetamine lab in Dutton Thursday and seized $5,000 worth of meth, Sheriff Jimmy Harris said this morning.
Harris said the DeKalb County Drug Task Force and the DeKalb County and Jackson County sheriff's offices executed a search warrant at the home of David Ray Cisco, 39, of Dutton.

 

David Ray Cisco was arrested in a meth lab raid at his home.

Cisco was charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia. He was taken to the DeKalb County Detention Center, where he is being held for Jackson County probation authorities, Harris said.
Cisco was released from prison in January after serving time for the attempted assault of a Jackson County deputy.

Pregnant woman arrested in DeKalb for drug possession

IDER, Alabama
DeKalb County authorities arrested a pregnant woman last week for possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.

Lauren Marie Fraley

Lauren Marie Fraley, 23, was arrested Sept. 13 on a tip from a citizen that she was involved in illegal drug activity on Alabama 75 in the Ider community, DeKalb Sheriff Jimmy Harris said in a news release.
Harris said he found out when Fraley was arrested that she was due to turn herself in the next day in Autauga County for sentencing on a charge of unlawful distribution of a controlled substance.
Because Fraley is four-months pregnant and was in possession of illegal drugs, the Department of Human Resources was contacted to investigate the safety of her unborn child, the news release states.
Fraley remains in the DeKalb County Jail with a $9,000 bond. When bond is posted, she'll be transported to Autauga County for sentencing on the charges there.
"This is another example of how much more effective we can be in controlling drug activity when we receive information from the community," Harris said in a statement. "Citizens function as our eyes and ears in the field, and we will always investigate any information that we receive."
