  • Sheriff warns of scam calls

    The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office received several calls last week from citizens who were contacted via telephone regarding credit cards. It appears this activity is a scam, Sheriff Jamie Kinman said in a news release.
    The typical scenario involves a person receiving a telephone call from a number that appears to be local. The number often appears on caller ID boxes with a 732 exchange and sometimes has a name associated with the number. Upon answering the phone, a solicitation is begun regarding a person’s ability to obtain lower credit card interest rates.

  • Sharp shooting strikes down girls’ chances for senior night victory

    The Lady Panthers tried their best to send seniors Jill Butcher, Kyndal Curry and Tasha Hunter out with a win on Senior Night Friday. Unfortunately, when your opponent hits 13 of 29 3-pointers, it is very difficult to pull out a victory. Walton-Verona (20-8) scorched the nets from behind the arc, but Carroll County (15-12) was able to keep the game close, down only two points with a little more than 3 minutes to go in the fourth quarter. However, the Lady Bearcats pulled away at the end with a final score of 58-50.
