An alleged major drug dealer is in custody and a large amount of illegal narcotics has been seized after a joint investigation by the Webster Parish Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Unit, DEA Task Force and Louisiana State Police came to a successful conclusion early Thursday.

Tymedrick Jones, who had been identified by task force agents as a large scale distributor of narcotics in the Cullen and Springhill area, reportedly was arrested following a traffic stop in Caddo Parish around 2 a.m.

Officials said the arrest successfully concluded with a large haul of illegal drugs including:

• Approximately 5,100 grams (11.3 lbs.) of methamphetamines.

• 1,100 grams (2.2 lbs.) of cocaine.

• 2,688 grams (six lbs.) of synthetic marijuana.

• 1,344 grams (three lbs.) natural marijuana.

Several thousand dollars was also confiscated, officers said.

Jones reportedly will be facing multiple charges in connection with drug trafficking with the intent to distribute. Additional charges reportedly could be filed as the investigation continues.

“This was a large amount of drugs headed for the streets of our parish that are now in our possession,” Parker said. “It’s a big job and it’s difficult sometimes, but we’re determined to keep drugs out of our parish. Our narcotics unit, working alongside the task force, is performing a great service.”

DEA Task Force members include agents from the Webster Parish Sheriff’s Office, Caddo Parish Sheriff’s Office, Bossier City and Shreveport police departments and the Louisiana National Guard Counter-Drug Program.

Two Minden police officers will soon be coming before the Minden Fire and Police Civil Service Board for public hearings to appeal their August terminations.

Chris Hammontree’s appeal will be heard by the board Thursday, Oct. 9.

Hammontree, a Lieutenant with 16 years on the force, was terminated in August by the Minden City Council reportedly for violation of a police department’s policy covering the dispatch of tow trucks.

He is appealing the decision which came on the recommendation of Chief of Police Jared McIver.

Jason Smith’s hearing had been scheduled for Oct. 16, but has been postponed and a new date has not been set. Aaron Green, counsel for the city council, reportedly was unavailable for the original date.

Smith, who also reached the rank of Lieutenant, was a seven-year veteran of the MPD and head of the department’s Criminal Investigative Division at the time his termination.

His hearing reportedly will focus on two complaints. One will be to appeal his August termination by the city council, which also acted on the recommendation of Chief McIver.

In the second complaint, Smith requests that civil service board members  initiate an investigation into what he alleges are false statements made by three current Minden police officers in reports filed regarding a June meeting at police headquarters.

Hearings are scheduled to begin at noon in the Minden City Council chambers/court room at city hall.

This week’s Most Wanted is Ashley Michele Evans, who lists an address in the 100 block of Eugene Evans Rd. in Natchitoches. Evans is wanted for leaving a local business with a shopping cart filled with unpaid items.

An off-duty law enforcement officer attempted to stop her in the parking lot as she was loading the unpaid items into her vehicle, but she pushed past him. Evans then drove away from the parking lot with the unpaid items.

She is wanted on an arrest warrant for LRS 14:67.A.4(a) theft (misdemeanor), LRS 14:34.2.A.(1) battery of an officer (misdemeanor), and LRS 14:108.A, resisting an officer.

Her arrest warrant has a surety bond amount of $2,500.

Anyone with information on Ashley Evans is asked to please contact Minden Police Det. Matthew Hicks at 318-639-7776. All information will be strictly confidential.

When you hear the words Small Town Mayors’ Alliance hosted by the Town of Sibley, “national security-level event” probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. However, when Mayor Robert Smart and Town Clerk Sherry McCann are at the helm, expectations are exceeded and the outcome is unforgettable.

The Town of Sibley kicked off the Small Town Mayors’ Alliance Conference at the Minden Civic Center on Wednesday, September 24. With more than 100 attendees, including mayors, clerks, law enforcement officers, council members, vendors, and volunteers, the event was already set to be impactful. Then it became something even more significant.

Originally scheduled to speak was Sibley native Kelly Lary Johnson. However, in a surprise move that left the room buzzing, she stepped aside to introduce her husband, Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Mike Johnson.

In a keynote address that stirred both patriotism and small-town pride, Speaker Johnson focused on core American values: faith, family, and freedom. Addressing a room full of local leaders, he called on them to model their leadership after conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, emphasizing a people-first approach rooted in compassion and conviction.

“His approach was to win over the people. He was motivated by his love for people,” Johnson noted, urging the attendees to lead from the heart.

“We live in the greatest nation in the history of the world, everybody in this room knows that,” Johnson said. “We are the most free, most successful, most powerful, and most benevolent nation that has ever been on the face of the earth.”

Johnson stressed that America’s greatness wasn’t accidental. He credited the nation’s founding principles, deeply rooted in Biblical values, and drew a parallel between the nation’s founders and the mayors and leaders gathered in the room.

The message was clear: Small towns are the heartbeat of America, and it is up to their leaders to preserve the values that make the nation strong.

The event was a reminder of the critical role that small-town leadership plays in shaping the American dream.

This weekend, I officially leveled up in motherhood: I took my preteen, Emerson, dress shopping for her very first homecoming. And let me tell you, I thought I was prepared. I wasn’t.

First of all, homecoming itself isn’t what it used to be. Back in my day, you just… showed up. Now, kids are out here staging homecoming proposals like they’re auditioning for a reality dating show. Posters, balloons, flowers, choreographed TikToks (it is sweet though!)

Then came the dress hunt. Emerson had her own set of criteria, which apparently included: nothing her mother thinks is cute. I’m serious… the second I picked something up, it was dead to her. No explanation needed. Mom liked it? Automatic veto.

Dress number one? Taylor Swift-coded. Which I thought was a compliment, but apparently was not.

Dress number two? Looked like an upside-down mushroom. (Her words, not mine, though I couldn’t unsee it after she said it.)

Dress number three? Practically see-through. Absolutely not!

Dress number four? Too short. And I agreed!

Dress number five? According to Em, it was from the 1840s.” Which, okay, maybe did have some pioneer chic vibes, but I was trying to think outside the box.

And dress number six? The one I thought was “the one”? Way too expensive, but somehow also managed to look like it belonged on the clearance rack in Pretty Woman’s “before” montage.

By the end of the day, we had tried on what felt like 27 dresses (not the movie, unfortunately – that might have been less painful). And do you know how many we left with? Zero. Nada. Zilch.

Apparently, we will be venturing out again next weekend, where I assume my opinion will once again be as useful as a screen door on a submarine. But hey – at least I got some quality bonding time with my girl. And by “bonding,” I mean me silently calculating how much therapy I’ll need after this saga is over.

(Paige Gurgainers is a mom of three girls, digital journalist for Webster Parish Journal.)

At 2 years and 8 months old, Roscoe has spent far too much of his young life waiting. This 52-pound boy has grown up inside shelter walls, where he’s become known as one of the “long-timers.” While many dogs come and go, Roscoe has been overlooked time and time again, and it’s a mystery why. In person, he is strikingly handsome, with eyes full of hope and a spirit that shines brightest when he’s with people who care.

One of Roscoe’s favorite places is the shelter pond. There, he splashes and plays alongside the other dogs, soaking in those rare moments of freedom. He’s the perfect age, not a wild puppy, but still young enough to burst with energy when the moment calls for it. After playtime, Roscoe is just as happy to stretch out, relax, and enjoy a good snuggle.

What makes him unforgettable, though, is his sweetness. Roscoe is a hugger. He leans in close, wrapping his paws gently around you as if to say, please don’t forget about me. What he wants more than anything is simple: stability, love, and a couch to call his own.

Roscoe has been patient, but he has waited long enough. This gentle soul is ready for a forever family who will see him not as a shelter dog, but as the loyal companion he was meant to be.

Could you be the home Roscoe has been hoping for? His loving heart and hopeful eyes are waiting to meet you.

Please check out Roscoe and all of the other shelter dogs dreaming of a second chance on Petfinder, or reach out directly to LaMa Animal Rescue. Somewhere out there is the family Roscoe has been waiting for—maybe it’s yours.

The Little Warriors Sports Program is kicking off its annual fundraiser to support local youth athletes, running September 29 through October 12. This year, families and community members can purchase popcorn and coffee directly from their phone or computer, with orders shipped straight to their homes.

Now in its fourth year, the Little Warriors program offers football, baseball, softball, basketball and track to students at Central Elementary and 6th graders at Lakeside. The nonprofit currently serves more than 100 children and their families, providing opportunities for young athletes while keeping costs low for parents.

“We began with only 20 players in football year one and now we have 54 players participating this year,” said board member Tara Wallace. “This year, we were able to provide a charter bus to travel to Rayville for an away game for both our football teams, which made the kids feel so special and also helped the parents.”

All money raised goes directly back into the program, funding uniforms, meals, insurance, and full equipment. Volunteers, many of them parents, also dedicate their time to coaching, running concessions and working ticket booths.

In addition to athletics, the Little Warriors have launched a mentorship program with Lakeside High School students in grades 10–12, who guide younger athletes on building character, academic success and leadership skills on and off the field.

“Our program is a true community investment,” Wallace said. “Every dollar raised goes back into creating experiences and opportunities for these kids.”

For more information about the fundraiser or to support the Little Warriors Sports Program, visit their Facebook page or contact Wallace at 318-235-8738.
