Mightymite: In the top photo, participants in the 24th annual Mightymite Triathlon check the leader board after completing the 16.3-mile course Saturday morning. In the photo at left, participants begin the 13-mile bicycle ride after completing the swimming portion of the race at Lake Dunn at Village Creek State Park. Racers rode to a parking lot at East Arkansas Community College where they left their bicycles for the last leg of the race, a three-mile run to the Campbell House on Forrest Street. This year’s event had more than 300 participants, and offered first-time overall winners in both the men’s and women’s divisions. Andrew Oberst of Memphis was the male overall winner, completing the course in just over an hour. Joy Johnson of Memphis was the overall female winner. She completed the course in just over one hour and seven minutes. More pictures from this year's event can be found linked with the Mightymite story located in the Sports Section of thnews.com

Real vs. fake: One of the many problems police officers face around the country is that many BB guns look very similar to real handguns. Lt. Eddie Adamson of the Forrest City Police Department looks over five guns on his desk. Four of the guns are BB guns confiscated by the FCPD, and one is a real firearm. Adamson says that in the heat of the moment, it is hard for trained officers to tell the difference. The gun on the front row at left is an actual service firearm carried by police officers.
