At 915am a bicyclist was riding down Honea Egypt over Lake Creek when he spotted a vehicle in the water. He called 911. Magnolia Fire responded along with DPS, MCSO, and Montgomery County Precinct 5 Constables. The vehicle was on its side just barely out of the water. It is unknown how long ago the crash happened but it is possible that it happened during the floods. The body of a male was recovered from the vehicle. Additional information later this afternoon.
MCPR was created in 2008 after Jamie left a newspaper that conflicted with her ethics. Initially, it was blog style website where Jamie wrote stories and posted them with photos. Scott provided video, and as the blog grew in popularity, businesses began to inquire about advertising. The blog soon transitioned to a news website, and then to a print newspaper, which was sold in over 100 stores, and through subscription for several years.
