Alaqua Animal Refuge Rescues 32 Animals from Life-Threatening Conditions, Owner Arrested

Urgent Response Leads to Legal Consequences In a critical and deeply unsettling animal rescue operation, Alaqua Animal Refuge, led by founder Laurie Hood, intervened in a life-threatening situation involving dozens of animals. The effort was coordinated in partnership with Deputy Sheriff Greg Barton of Holmes County Sheriff’s Office, Walton County Sheriff’s Office, Florida, and Washington County Animal Control. Owner Faces Criminal Charges The owner of these distressed animals was arrested and is currently facing four 3rd degree felony charges and 30 1st degree misdemeanors. All animals were legally transferred to Alaqua Animal Refuge for immediate treatment and future adoption. Horrific Conditions Demand Immediate Action Amidst a heatwave, with heat index soaring above 110 degrees, the team discovered animals trapped in a trailer without electricity, water, or adequate food. The conditions were beyond deplorable—filled with trash, debris, and life-threatening holes in the flooring. No Animal Left Behind “I originally planned to assess the situation and try to find placement for these animals, as we are always at full capacity,” said Laurie Hood, Alaqua Founder. “However, once I witnessed the dire conditions, leaving any animal behind was not an option.” A Grim Race Against Time The situation was so extreme that some animals were found deceased. Many of the remaining dogs, puppies, and exotic birds were skittish, many requiring tranquilization for safe removal. A miniature horse that was struggling to live when found, despite around-the-clock care, had to be humanely euthanized. Ongoing Care for Surviving Animals Alaqua is now caring for a... Read More

DRUNK DEFUNIAK SPRINGS MAN SHOOTING AT A TREE NEARLY HITS SLEEPING NEIGHBOR

August 28, 2023 WALTON COUNTY, FLA— A DeFuniak Springs man is arrested on multiple felony charges after shooting into a neighbor’s home and threatening another. On August 25th Walton County Sheriff Deputies responded to 38 Willie B. Parker Road after a call about an argument and the sound of gunfire. When deputies arrived, they saw a white male with no shirt standing on the porch with his right arm stretched out holding a firearm. At that moment, the man fired two shots. Deputies got into a tactical position and the individual went inside the residence. Deputies were able to determine the subject was Randall Holley, 26. Holley came out of the home after a short time and was detained. An investigation found he had in fact fired multiple rounds towards a tree in the front yard. One of the rounds missed the tree and struck a home across the street. When checking the residence, a bullet was lodged in an interior door feet away from where a woman was sleeping. It was also discovered that when neighbors attempted to intervene during an argument Holley was having with his wife, he pointed the gun at them, threatening to kill them. As a result of the findings, Randall was taken into custody and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, shooting a missile into an occupied dwelling, using a firearm under the influence of alcohol, and discharging a firearm in public. He was transported and booked into the Walton County Jail.... Read More
