    Tornado hits Coweta County  – The Ancient Oak in front of City Hall in Grantville was destroyed by winds gusted and hitting scattered areas through the county. A tornado was reportedly sighted in neighboring Hogansville Monday night. County Prison Warden Wendell Whitlock said that he has seven crews working over the county to clear the debris scattered by the storm.
    Flashback Friday: June 9, 1977

Coweta County began operation of the ambulance service with two new ambulances on Wednesday. The county has ordered three fully equipped ambulances and two of them were delivered this week. The service will be operated from Coweta General Hospital. All of the personnel working with the ambulance service are emergency medical technicians (EMT). The ambulance service will make both emergency and non-emergency trips.
