Residents in Spring Hope are demanding urgent flood fixes one month after heavy rains swept a car into a ravine, killing Lottie Alston, 24, and Raymond Evans Jr., 55.

Cole across from Fayetteville State University — part of a project that honors local musicians. The work is set to be finished on Monday, Sept. 8 and is expected to boost the area's positive spirit.
🏛️ Government
Commissioners canceled the planned Crown Event Center and instead will renovate existing venues—leaving an empty space in front of the courthouse.
