• Couch Clay Hill honored with avenue dedication (cordeledispatch.com) — A stretch of Stewart Avenue in Cordele has been officially dedicated as Clay Hill Avenue to honor the longtime coach's impact on local youth. City leaders and Coach Hill's family praised his mentorship and promised future improvements, including eventually getting the newly renamed road paved for neighborhood residents.
• Cordele Police chief addresses how department investigates cases amid social media rumors (walb.com) — Cordele's police chief is explaining why no arrest has yet been made in a reported terroristic threat at a local community center, citing the lack of a corroborating witness or recording. He walks residents through how officers build probable cause, when warrants are issued, and why social media rumors alone cannot drive arrests in Cordele.
• Crisp Fire Chief gives updates to Cordele Rotary (cordeledispatch.com) — Cordele residents heard a detailed update on how the Crisp County Fire Department staffs its main station and four substations, and how firefighters often arrive first to serious medical calls. The chief also described recent life-saving smoke alarm installations and ongoing public fire-safety education that directly benefit families across the county.
