WINTER HAVEN, Fla. - Winter Haven police shot and killed Larry Jenkins, 52, Saturday night after they say he pulled a gun on them while responding to a 911 call.
According to the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, the agency investigating the officer-involved shooting, a 21-year-old woman called 911 shortly after 10 p.m. regarding an armed disturbance on Orchid Springs Dr. in Winter Haven.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said the woman called 911 after she and her husband, Joshua Caldwell, went to Jenkins home to pick up her 14-year-old sister. Judd said the woman told deputies that when they arrived, Jenkins and the 14-year-old girl were at the residence alone.
All of them can tell you that’s not true.
You don’t just wake up one morning and schedule surgery the next week.
There are a series of preliminary steps to follow that are likely to take three or four months. They include:
• Meetings with a dietitian to learn how having part of your stomach removed from the digestive process changes your eating and drinking patterns for life.
• Having one or more sessions with a mental-health professional to determine whether conditions like depression and anxiety need to be addressed.
• Getting a full explanation of the surgery from the surgeon who will perform it.
LAKELAND – More than 4,000 people were scheduled to receive their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine Wednesday at Polk County s largest clinic to date.
The Florida Department of Health in Polk County held its first mega POD at the RP Funding Center in downtown Lakeland. The event kicked off at 7 a.m. offering immunization by appointment-only to those who had registered for Polk s vaccine waiting list. I think they have this event organized really well, Roxy Hoover, 74, of Winter Haven said. There was absolutely no wait.
A POD, or Point of Dispensing, is a site used in the event of a public health emergency to mass distribute vaccines, medications or medical supplies.
