A grass fire was reported behind the old car wash at Valero around 10 a.m. on Tuesday, March 31, 2026. Kosciusko Firefighters and Police were dispatched to the area, and firefighters quickly extinguished the fire. Shortly afterward, police stated that a male individual is now banned from the store.
Just before 11 a.m., Kosciusko Police were called back to Valero where siblings, a brother and sister, got into an altercation. One person was taken into custody and another, who was reportedly bleeding in the facial area, was taken to the hospital for treatment.
At 11:50 a.m., officers were alerted to possibly shots fired near Clark Rd. Police searched and patrolled the area but nothing out of the ordinary was found.
The northbound lanes of Veterans Memorial Dr. near Kangaroo Crossing were blocked for a while this afternoon around 1:30 p.m. A log truck’s loaded trailer apparently detached from the truck and blocked traffic for a time. Officers got one of the lanes cleared, then crews directed traffic until the truck and trailer could move from the roadway.
Praying Mother
April 1, 2026 at 1:53 PMLord have mercy on us here in KO. We have been on Jackson’s WAPT 16 3 days straight. Jesus is coming back. Better get your houses in order. God is not pleased. Parents are neglecting responsibility and allowing children to raise themselves. Mental illness is rampant as well as spiritual principalities.
