Weekend to Feature Mother's Day Pow Wow

Find out what's coming up on Canton-Sixes Patch today and what you might have missed overnight.

 

1. A Bartow County Sheriff's Office report said that a handgun recovered on Tuesday was stolen from the Canton Police Department. Not true, Canton Police Sgt. Matt Baldwin said Thursday morning. 

2. A meth lab in Woodstock was successfully disassembled on Eagle View Trace, according to a report on Woodstock-Towne Lake Patch. "It is unlikely the meth lab dismantled last night at 200 Eagle View Trace in Woodstock ever successfully generated methamphetamine," said Lt. Jay Baker, the spokesman for the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office. "Although the suspect’s likely thought they could produce methamphetamine, and actually had some of the items required to make the drug, it would have been impossible for them to produce methamphetamine. There was no ephedrine, a required ingredient to methamphetamine, located at the home. No charges will be filed in the investigation."

3. Freedom Middle School’s Homeless Pets Club helped the Cherokee County Animal Shelter win the Hill’s Pet $10,000 Nutrition Contest. Click here to find out what they did.

5.
