Tuscaloosa St Shooting case

Multiple mental health issues, family tension and “voices” with a plan appear to have motivated a Michigan couple to shoot at Mobile police for hours outside their Midtown home last month, according to new court testimony.

Justin Michael Senia, 27, and Arielle Joanna Perreault, 34, returned to Mobile County District Court Thursday morning for a preliminary hearing on charges they opened fire on local law enforcement more than 50 times in a standoff at their home at 113 Tuscaloosa Street on Sunday, Jan. 4. Lt. Lorenzo Matthews was shot in the side while responding to the standoff, and is recovering from his injury.

Gulf Shores students Restore Beach

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) - Hundreds of students spent two days this week installing native vegetation to restore coastal dunes at Gulf State Park as part of a collaborative conservation effort.

Gulf Shores City Schools, Dune Doctors, and Gulf State Park teamed up for the “Planting for Protection” event, which included educational sessions led by park staff and coastal restoration experts.

The program marks its fifth year, creating a mentorship cycle where former participants now guide younger students.

“Since this is our fifth year, some of the students that are mentors this year had the opportunity to actually plant the plants as fifth graders. So they’ve grown, and now they’re mentors. It’s kind of a full circle for them,” said Kelly Reetz of Gulf State Park.

High school seniors worked alongside elementary students to build up natural barriers along the coastline. William Kiser, a senior at Gulf Shores High School, helped teach younger participants the restoration process.

“These young ones here, I’m teaching them how to restore these dunes. We’ve been planting plants around these trees,” Kiser said.

Fifth-grader Crew Rouse described the hands-on experience as engaging.

“We’ve been planting plants around trees and moving trees around. It’s really cool,” Rouse said.

The project aims to provide crucial support to the coastal dune ecosystem while educating students about environmental conservation.

“So, they’re learning to share that experience with more people, and it helps everybody in making that awareness of how fragile our environment is. So, it’s just awesome,” said Frederique Beroset of Dune Doctors.

The restoration work represents an ongoing effort to protect the area’s natural coastal barriers through community involvement and education.
