BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) – Officials are investigating a building fire in Baton Rouge that investigators say was an act of arson.
According to the Baton Rouge Fire Department, the fire happened just after 6:30 a.m. on Friday, April 11, at H&P Used Auto Sales on Weller Avenue near Mohican Street.

The Baton Rouge Fire Department responds to a building fire on Friday morning, April 11.(WAFB)
Crews quickly extinguished the fire in the back room before it could spread, according to the fire department.
A spokesman with the fire department said firefighters rescued a puppy from inside the building and turned it over to the building’s owner.
According to the Baton Rouge Fire Department, the fire happened at a mechanic’s shop on Weller Avenue near Mohican Street.
According to the fire department, one person was living inside the business, which the fire inspector says did not have the proper occupancy permit for someone to be living inside.

Residents at a Dorset care home helped a team member raise £2,500 for charity by cutting her hair.
Corinne Wareham, a companion at Colten Care’s Bourne View in Poole, had not had a haircut in a year and decided to use her first chop to raise money for the Down’s Syndrome Association (DSA) and Hants & Dorset Christian Youth Camps.
Her haircut was not an ordinary one, as residents were given the chance to take part in her charity cut.
Before the cut began, Brett Gill, a gardener at the Langside Avenue home, blew Corinne’s long hair with a leaf blower for the last time.

Corinne’s hair styles during the day included a green and white Mohican. She is pictured with friend Sian Murdoch, left and colleague Jackie Dominey. (Image: Philip Hartley) John Broomfield was the first resident to take part and cut off several inches of her ponytail.
He said: “I was happy to take the first cut and it was like I had a trophy when I held up the lock to show everyone.”
Bourne View’s professional hairdresser, Nicola Guest, oversaw Corinne’s ‘chop for charity’ and styled various looks for her during the day, including an inverted bob and a Mohican sprayed with green and white colouring.
Nicola said: “I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of cutting styles our residents don’t usually ask for.”

BELLVILLE — Nearly three inches of rain have accumulated in Bellville since Wednesday at noon, according to the National Weather Service.
Close to an inch and a half of that total has fallen within the past 24 hours as of 4 p.m. Saturday, according to National Weather Service measurements.
Several roadways in Bellville, including State Route 13 and State Route 97, were closed Saturday morning due to flood waters.
Both re-opened as of 3:15 p.m. on Saturday, according to Bellville Mayor Teri Brenkus — who warned residents on Facebook that more rain is expected Saturday night into Sunday morning, which could lead to more road closures.
Several local businesses were unable to open their doors near downtown Bellville on Saturday morning. Other communities throughout Richland County have received significant rainfall since heavy rains began Wednesday.
According to the National Weather Service’s local area rainfall monitoring, nearly an inch and a half of rain has accumulated within the past 24 hours in Shelby and Mansfield has received about an inch and a quarter in that same time frame.
More rain forecasted Saturday into Sunday
More rain is forecasted for Saturday evening into Sunday morning. A flood watch issued by the National Weather Service in Cleveland remains in effect for Richland County until Sunday morning at 8 a.m.
A high of 38 degrees is forecasted for tomorrow, creating the possibility for snow to be mixed in with rain showers. The National Weather Service predicts snow accumulation “of less than a half inch” is possible Sunday and Sunday night.

— Black Fork Mohican at Shelby
One of the most storied tribes in Indian Nation has taken another step toward reclaiming history that was ripped away from it more than 200 years ago.
The Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Tribe of Wisconsin recently closed a deal to purchase 372 undeveloped acres of Monument Mountain, which carries sacred meaning and is part of its original homeland in Massachusetts.
Shannon Holsey, President of the Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Nation, makes remarks last summer.
The Mohican Tribe had been located on what is now parts of Massachusetts and New York for thousands of years before being forced to move by European colonists, and eventually settling in Wisconsin more than 200 years ago. The tribe has been reclaiming some land in New York and Massachusetts in the past few years.
“It represents a ‘landback’ movement to reclaim land in a way that differs from the Western colonial way of thinking about it,” Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Nation President Shannon Holsey said in a statement. “We are trying to reclaim our ways of being, which was never based on money. It’s the reclamation of our kinship systems, our governance systems, our ceremony and spirituality, our language, our culture and our food and medicinal systems. Those are all based on our relationship to the land.”
Mohican people still make pilgrimages to Monument Mountain as it has always been a place where tribal members would leave stone offerings imbued with prayers to Creator. The stones had been formed into a monument, giving the mountain its name.
The mountain’s peak reaches 1,642 feet and includes public hiking trails offering views of a river valley and the Berkshires highlands and Catskill Mountains.

And then, there was one.
The 2020 recruiting class was viewed as a major one for the UNC basketball program, as six prospects made their way to Chapel Hill.
At the time, we didn’t know that this group would be the final recruiting class of the Roy Williams era. We also had no idea that this group would be part of a rare class that received an additional season of eligibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Five years later, we’re finally closing in the end of that recruiting class’ collegiate tenure, as one Williams recruit still has at last one college game left to be played.
Day’Ron Sharpe took his talents to the NBA after one season in Chapel Hill. Walker Kessler transferred after his freshman year and ended up becoming a star at Auburn, a brief stint that also led him…

COOPERSTOWN—The League of Women Voters of the Cooperstown Area has announced that Elias MacLeish will be the 2025 delegate to the annual Students Inside Albany conference in Albany. Elias, the son of Padraic and Shelby MacLeish, is a junior at Cooperstown High School and lives Hartwick.
“Congratulations to Elias. The SIA program is a fantastic immersive experience for our area students,” said Kristin Pullyblank, co-president of the LWV of the Cooperstown Area. “Civics education is at the forefront of the League’s mission, and we are fortunate to have been able to send at least one student since the inception of the program in 2001.”
The League of Women Voters of New York State Education Foundation Inc. sponsors one delegate from each League in New York to SIA. The program is designed to increase high-school students’ awareness of their responsibility in representative government and provide information about the tools necessary for meeting that responsibility. This year’s SIA Conference will take place May 18-21 and will bring 40-some students from across the state to Albany.
Students will participate in a series of interactive lectures on topics such as the state budget process, the role of lobbyists in the legislative process, citizen rights to access government information, the role of media in politics, and the move to reform state government. Shadowing their senator and their assemblymember for an afternoon and attending a session on the Chamber floors are two of the highlights of SIA.
At Cooperstown High School, Elias is involved in mock trial, Envirothon, yearbook, cross country, track and field, and Leadership Training for Athletes. He has also been leading a project to restore the LaCava Nature Center.
Elias is interested in pursuing studies that…

HARTWICK—Frances P. Wayman, a Hartwick native, died peacefully at home on March 21, 2025. Frances, the youngest of 10 children, was born on June 24, 1926 at her family’s farm on the top of Scotch Hill to Anton and Mary Zupevec of Austria. After her family moved to North Street, Frances walked across the field to Hartwick High School, graduating the only girl in a class of five.
Frances met her future husband, Douglas F. Wayman, when they both worked at Mohican Florist in Cooperstown. They were married on May 19, 1945. Frances and Doug purchased their present home on School Street in Hartwick, where they raised their two children, Kenneth and Linda.
Frances’ passion for cooking led her to 25 years as a cafeteria cook, first at Hartwick High School and Grade Center, then retiring from Cooperstown Elementary School after the Hartwick school’s closure. She is still known by many of Hartwick’s community as “the cafeteria lady” who always made sure neither her students nor staff left hungry!
During the summer, Frances enjoyed entertaining friends at the family’s camp on Canadarago Lake. She was an expert seamstress whose talents were often sought out by the community. Frances was an avid gardener. Included among the vegetables were the special pole beans from Yugoslavia, brought to this country by her sister. A reunion favorite, always requested, were her baked beans. In retirement, Frances enjoyed caring for her senior siblings, exercise classes and other activities with her lifelong neighborhood friends.
In 2004, after 59 years of marriage, Frances lost the love of her life, Doug, and in 2018 her daughter, Linda Alessi, of Long Island. Frances is survived by her son, Kenneth Wayman; son-in-law Dan Alessi;…
