UPDATE: As of 12:45, internet is back up and running smoothly. There could be some glitches here and there but the problem looks to be resolved.

Just received word that anyone with WesTex will not have internet access. It’s not their fault, the Texas Lone Star Network has a cut fiber line somewhere In Texas. Any businesses around Stanton that are affected will not be able to process credit cards. Take cash with you if you need to purchase groceries or medicine.
At this time there is no word on when the cut line will be fixed, or if it’s even been located.

Train accident

A trailer got hung up on the railroad crossing at Boniface and Front Street in Stanton on Thursday. The driver hauling the trailer unhooked when he couldn’t dislodge the trailer and waited for the inevitable to happen. No injuries were reported. The video was shot by Sinath Sorn of Homer Donuts across the street from the accident.

Running 4 Heroes started with a kid, an appreciation for our First Responders, and a mission to raise awareness and funds for those fallen in the line of duty. Zechariah Cartledge was born with the gift of running. He was raised with an appreciation for First Responders and all they do for the community. As he grew older, Zechariah decided to help the families of our fallen First Responders in a meaningful way. Encouraged by the mission and vision of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, Zechariah began his journey raising funds for those families by running. In 2019, Running 4 Heroes officially became a non-profit 501(c)(3). Zechariah runs one mile for every First Responder who makes the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. He wants to honor those who gave up their life so we may live in a better world. Today marked Zechariah’s 977th mile which he ran in honor of Martin County Fireman Danny Ireton.
