Here’s everything you need to know going on in the Mid-South:

 

  • Maybe hold off buying that Halloween costume this year. Most of Halloween is canceled according to the Shelby County Health Department’s guidelines released Tuesday, citing coronavirus concerns. ‘Wake Up Memphis’ with Memphis will discuss all the details coming up, and you can find all the guidelines here.

 

  • A man was sent to the hospital in critical condition early Tuesday evening after a shooting at East Waldolf Avenue in South Memphis.

 

  • This is a new low of 2020, folks. Dyersburg Police say six teenagers tried to steal from a 60-year-old woman in a wheelchair. They pretended like they wanted to help the woman take in her groceries to her apartment, but when she refused the help, it escalated to threats. Thankfully, she didn’t budge, and the boys backed off. One of them has been arrested.
