Residents in downtown Franklin’s Hincheyville neighborhood are expecting another big turnout this Halloween.
Franklin Police Officers will close West Main Street and Fair Street to vehicle traffic between 7th & 11th Avenues, and 9th Avenue between Natchez St. & 96W from 5pm-9pm for trick-or-treaters Thursday, October 31 (see the map).
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, children are at higher risk of being hit by a car and seriously injured on Halloween than any other night of the year. Reasons include:
Earlier today, Franklin Police used Nextdoor to warn residents within a two-mile radius of The Landings about the disturbing attack of a woman early this morning. It happened on McKay’s Court.
At about 4:30 am, a resident took her dog out when an attacker wearing a hoodie struck her several times in the face and then fled after the victim’s dog fought back. The attacker is described as a tall white male with a solid build, scruffy face, and wavy hair.
The Department is stepping up patrols in both marked and unmarked cars and asks residents to remain vigilant, especially during late night / early morning hours.
Residents with a Ring Doorbell or other exterior camera are urged to check it for overnight activations in hopes that someone may have captured an image of the attacker.
Anyone with information should call
Franklin Police: (615) 794-2513
