Talk of the Town
Former Martinsville Vice Mayor Jennifer Michelle Bowles faces 15 charges following an incident at a South Carolina Home Depot. Lancaster police say officers found several damaged vehicles Wednesday night after a report of a woman driving into cars. Bowles, 37, was arrested and booked Thursday. Charges include three assault-related counts, disorderly conduct and 11 property-damage counts. No other details have been made available.
Tropical Storm Isaias, which is churning hundreds of miles south of the Gulf Coast, is expected to rapidly strengthen in the next 24 to 48 hours before making landfall on Friday as a hurricane.
The storm on Wednesday morning was about 580 miles south of the Mississippi River. It may become the first Atlantic hurricane of the season, the latest first hurricane on record, on Thursday.
Rain from Isaias may reach the New Orleans-to-Pensacola region along the Gulf Coast on Friday morning, bringing with it potentially tropical-storm-force winds.
