Missing Man's Remains Found in Freezer

Authorities in south Alabama say a missing man's remains have been found in his freezer and a person of interest has been taken into custody.  Butler County Sheriff Kenny Harden tells WSFA 39-year-old Michael Dwayne Graham was killed and his remain were put in the freezer at his mobile home in Greenville.  Investigators have said the man's car was found abandoned in the Atlanta area and the person who had been driving it was tracked to North Carolina.  Sheriff's officials say evidence gathered in North Carolina led to a search warrant being granted for Graham's home and the driver is now a person of interest in his death.  

Lott Sentenced

The Montgomery man who fatally struck a 19-year-old Oklahoma State University student with his truck while she was in Gulf Shores for Spring Break in 2014, was sentenced to 20 years in prison Thursday.  Judge Joseph Norton rendered the maximum sentence on 30-year-old Justin Lott following an emotionally jarring hearing at the Baldwin County Courthouse in Bay Minette.  

Officer Impersonation

Authorities say a man driving a vehicle with blue lights on its roof is charged with impersonating an officer.  Etowah County Sheriff's Capt. Josh Morgan says 43-year-old David Michael Combs of Fyffe was stopped Thursday afternoon when authorities saw that his vehicle has blue lights on its roof and a handicap plate.  Authorities says Combs told then he was responding to a crash and was a constable for the Dekalb County sheriff's office.  Officials confirmed that Combs is not an employee.  Authorities say he was arrested on a similar charge in 1993.
