May 8, 2023 - On Sunday, March 5, 2023, the West Shelby County Volunteer Fire Department (WSCVFD) responded to a fire on the side of State Highway 7 near the roadside park. The fire was caused by a blown out tire on the trailer of an 18-wheeler. The fire burned along the ditch but was put out before it got out of hand.
Also, on Monday, March 6th, there was a single-vehicle crash caused when a Ford Explorer struck a deer crossing the highway. Thick fog was probably a contributing factor for the crash.
