Good morning, Hattiesburg.

The Forrest County Sheriff’s Office and sponsors hosted the first-ever Motorfest at the Multipurpose Center to bring community members and officers together for motorcycle rides, dirt bike laps, food, and music — the event paused at 4:00 p.m. to honor Deputy Jeremy Malone, killed last year in the line of duty, and proceeds will support the Pine Belt Foundation Fund for new equipment.

The Hattiesburg Zoo kicked off its 75th anniversary celebration Saturday by introducing a new mascot named Ti—short for Tiberius the Imaginary Tiger.

The zoo will hold themed celebrations, including a new Flamingo exhibit and video commercial, every second Saturday through April next year.

On Saturday, 1,400 people joined the fifth Farm to Fork: Ride/Run event at The Barn at Bridlewood in Lamar County to help feed hungry people through Extra Table.

The races and cycling rides raised over $85,000 — enough to cover one month of food purchases and mark 15 years of service across Mississippi.

Officials with the Mississippi Department of Public Safety seized 205 pounds of marijuana + 560 THC product units + 6 pounds of edibles + 150 mushroom product units from a box truck on I-10 eastbound in Hancock County on Wednesday as the Commercial Transportation Enforcement Division worked with the Hancock County Sheriff’s Office.

Yesterday's 26th annual Downtown Crawfish Jam Music Festival at Walthall Park featured six hours of music and an all-you-can-eat feast of mudbugs, corn, taters, and more, serving as the largest fundraiser for the Walthall Foundation — proceeds will support renovations of the historic Walthall Community Center Building.

On Saturday, the Epsilon Upsilon chapter of Alpha Tau Omega held its 40th annual crawfish boil at USM's Spirit Park and raised more than $23,000 to help The DuBard School for Language Disorders.

The fraternity, which planned the event since December, said the results showed their strong support for the local school — building on last year’s $17,000 raise.

USM clinched the Sun Belt series with a 7—3 win over Appalachian State Saturday at Smith Stadium in Boone as Ozzie Pratt drove in four runs and Matt Adams pitched six solid innings.

The series finale is set for today at 11 a.m.
