Bond set for man accused of trying to run over MS officer
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A man accused of trying to run a Southaven, Mississippi, police officer over in a stolen car last week is now being held in jail on a $250,000 bond.
Marcus Coleman's bond was revoked on Monday; however, according to the DeSoto County jail log, a bond was set after he appeared in court on Wednesday.
Coleman, 20, is charged with Aggravated Assault on a Police Officer, Conspiracy to commit a crime – felony, Disorderly Conduct – failure to comply, Suspended Drivers License, Fleeing/Eluding an officer in a Motor Vehicle, two counts of Possession of Paraphernalia, Receiving Stolen Property – Felony, Resisting Arrest, and Violation of Probation.
On June 18, officers with the Southaven Police Department responded to reports of a stolen vehicle located at the Sonic on 1185 Main Street.
The suspect was found near the location, but when officers attempted to stop him, he allegedly rammed officers with the stolen car. Police say the suspect then tried to run over one of the officers, and shots were fired.

$1,000 in plants stolen from Gastonia shop; plants recovered, suspect arrested
A Gastonia business owner says her rare plants are back home and a suspect is in custody after she posted surveillance photos of the alleged thief on social media. Lauren Dawsey-Smith, owner of Wild & Whimsy Living, said that on June 24, a man entered her shop at 231 E. Main Ave. around lunchtime and selected several plants as if he intended to buy them. When employees weren't nearby, the man went into a back room and grabbed an exotic cactus and other mother plants that were given to Dawsey-Smith by her grandmother, Gladis Morris. He then loaded about $1,000 in plants into a vehicle and left. The stolen plants included a Thai Consolation plant, a monstera ablo plant, two variegated burle mark plants and others. After Dawsey-Smith shared security stills online, social media users identified the alleged culprit. Jackson Cartner, 26, is charged with felony larceny in the Wild & Whimsy theft, according to Gastonia police. Court records show he also has theft charges pending in Alamance County. Dawsey-Smith said she went with police to the home Cartner shared with his mother. "When we were on the property and we saw the plants, police arrested him for another theft in another county," Dawsey-Smith said. As for the plants, Dawsey-Smith said she returned to the property days later and was able to retrieve them from the property. "This definitely won't change anything. If anything, we might be a little more alert that maybe, not everyone has the most pure intentions just because we do," she said. "The community coming together has reignited a passion in me. We really do have a lot of good, wonderful people who wanted to help... If anything, I just feel like it has created ties to the community even stronger."

Women Who Live Alone Are Sharing The Safety Tips They Swear By, And It's So, So Important
Violence against women is a critical issue around the world, and it's a sad reality that we have to take extra measures to keep ourselves safe, even in the comfort of our own homes. A while back, we wrote a post where women who live alone shared the safety tips that every woman should know, and their advice was invaluable. In the comments, even more women rallied together to share the precautions and safety hacks they follow. Here's what they had to say: 1."I heard somewhere you should always have a big, heavy pair of work boots outside your door to make creeps think a guy lives there." —kittylane276 "I always keep a pair of men's boots outside my door." —islandmiss Related: 2."Becoming friendly with neighbors is a big one. I live alone, but I know I have several neighbors I can knock on the door if necessary. And several are within earshot. Look into how approachable your apartment is as well. I live in a sort of gated (the gate is never shut) community with a windy drive. Getting in and out isn't easy." —emilyl4fc46ac80 3."When I lived alone, any time I had food delivered, I'd always call, 'Food's here!' over my shoulder to my fictional boyfriend/housemate as I accepted the delivery, so it would never seem like I lived alone." —eleanorh44bb646f7 4."Bear spray by the door is useful. Buy a timer for your lights — they sell some with a phone app, so you can turn them on and off even if you're out of town." —dancer4eva2014 Related: 5."NEVER live on the first floor or give your full name for the buzzer (if needed): your first initial and last name (or part of your last name) will suffice." —dancer4eva2014 6."Regularly call your mom or someone super close to you, so it will be noticeable if you're missing." —dancer4eva2014 7."Check your mail in irregular patterns." —dancer4eva2014 8."Get a dog. Just the barking of a dog alone will scare off plenty of criminals. This has been proven." —whytetigress13 "The best protection, in my opinion, is having a mean dog. He's such a sweet boy to me, but to anyone who is not in his small circle (five people), he's terrifying. And I love it. Deters most people from even wanting to come over. I also put a set of like Christmas sleigh bells on the handle of my back door so they jingle every time it's turned. If I don't hear it, my dog will." —emmybburg Related: 9."Get a door alarm. I recently had an ex show up and walk into my house at 3:45 a.m. The door alarm is such a comfort for me now." —desireedallas 10."Check your car's backseat and trunk if you're going to drive at night. You never know who or what might be waiting for you." —petalt0themedal 11."Do NOT answer the door if you're not expecting anybody." —f4bul0u5 12."I always put two names (first initial, last name) on my apartment mailbox." —smogmonster 13."I keep an old softball bat and pepper spray by my bedside table and back door. I don't answer my front door. I have a handgun, but I don't like it. Any time I'm with friends who are shooting, I pick up a few spent casings and leave them on my porch." —eerie_e Related: 14."I'm hoping to get a motion sensor to put at the end of my driveway to let me know anytime someone pulls in (I live in the country). Always turn my porch light on when I leave, no matter when I expect to return." —eerie_e And finally... 15."I'm glad I have a Ring camera (especially while I'm living alone while my fiancé is deployed) because some guy who looked drunk or on drugs was pounding on my door in the middle of the night and reading my mail that was stuck in the mail slot." "Fortunately, I was out of town that weekend, but it was super freaky to see, and I would've been really scared had I been there that night." —arya_ravenclaw Fellow women who live alone, what other safety tips and precautions do you follow?
