STORY 1: Kennesaw Man Gets Federal Prison Time for Attempting Sex with Minor
Joshua Herrera, a Kennesaw man, has been sentenced to nearly 20 years in federal prison for attempting to entice a minor girl for sex. Herrera, 29, planned to meet with an undercover FBI special agent, expressing interest in engaging in illegal sexual activity with a minor girl, requesting pictures, and arranging a meeting. The FBI arrested him upon his arrival at the pre-arranged location in metro Atlanta. The case is part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to protect children from online exploitation and abuse. U.S. Attorney Ryan Buchanan encourages parents to monitor their children's electronic device use and report suspicious activity.
STORY 2: Police: Suspect in Custody After Hotel Employee Shot Early Monday
An employee at the Quality Inn hotel on Cobb Place Boulevard near Town Center mall in Cobb County was shot multiple times around 2 a.m. The overnight clerk called 911, and the victim was treated at the scene before being transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital. The victim is expected to survive. Police used dogs and drones to search for a suspect and later arrested a suspicious individual reported by a concerned citizen. The investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information is urged to contact the Cobb County Police Department Major Crimes Unit. The identities of the victim and suspect have not been released.
STORY 3: Waterfowl Hunters: Duck Season Opens Nov. 18
Georgia waterfowl hunters are gearing up for the duck hunting season starting on November 18. A significant change this year is the suspension of quota waterfowl hunts on Butler Island for the 2023 season due to weather-related delays in scheduled repairs. However, the Champney waterfowl hunts will proceed as scheduled. Duck season spans from November 18 to 26 and December 9 to January 28. Youth, active military, and veterans have an early hunting opportunity on November 11-12, allowing them to hunt specific migratory birds. The necessary licenses can be conveniently purchased through the Waterfowl Hunter Package at GoOutdoorsGeorgia.com.
