A 37-year-old Littleton area woman has been charged with allegedly shooting her child, the Halifax County Sheriff’s Office reported this afternoon.
More charges are pending in a Saturday crash that killed a 19-year-old Halifax man, the Weldon Police Department said this morning.
The man allegedly stealing manhole covers and storm grates has been caught, Roanoke Rapids Police Chief Jeff Hinton confirmed.
No details were immediately available.
Ten storm grates have been stolen from city streets, 28 from the River’s Edge subdivision — 24 grates and four manhole covers — and 12 taken from Carolina Crossroads.
A Hollister man thought to allegedly be responsible for the storm grate and manhole cover thefts in the city was arrested today as an officer observed him trying to take another one this morning, Roanoke Rapids Police Chief Jeff Hinton said.
The Halifax County Sheriff’s Office reported the following:
