Cassandra’s life turned upside down last summer. That’s when her daughter died, and her 2-year-old grandson came to live with her.

Cassandra doesn’t mind taking care of her grandson because that’s what families do. But her grandson is active, and she has a tough time keeping up with him physically.

He also misses his mom, and so does Cassandra. But every time he hugs and kisses his grandmother, the tears disappear.

Even though he’s a handful at times, their love is strong, and Cassandra wants nothing more this Christmas than to make her grandson happy. But with a limited income, she’s unable to buy gifts.

This news organization created the Empty Stocking Fund in 1971 to help spread cheer to families in our area who have suffered tragedies and heartbreak. Readers have responded generously, making spirits brighter throughout the community, especially among children who find themselves in difficult circumstances.

Average retail gasoline prices in Savannah have fallen 0.8 cents a gallon in the past week to $2.02 a gallon on Sunday, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 262 gas outlets in Savannah.

The average has fallen 1.6 cents a gallon in the last week to $1.99, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.

Gas prices in the region include:

Jacksonville, $1.95 a gallon, down 1.3 cents from last week’s $1.96.

Augusta, $1.93 a gallon, up 2.4 cents from last week’s $1.90.

South Carolina, $1.77 a gallon, flat from last week’s $1.77.

Prices Sunday in metro Savannah were 32.5 cents a gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 5.3 cents a gallon lower than a month ago. The national has decreased 8.4 cents a gallon during the last month and stands 39.4 cents lower than one year ago.

“With the national average price of gas slipping below $2 on Saturday, the holiday season continues to reward most consumers at the pump, but the Grinch turned up in California replacing price declines with price spikes,” said Gregg Laskoski, a senior petroleum analyst with GasBuddy. “California’s hikes tie directly to issues at two refineries with combined capacity exceeding 400,000 barrels per day. Consequently, California’s average price has climbed by 8 cents per gallon while the rest of the country for the most part sees declines,” Laskoski said.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department’s violent crimes detectives are investigating two shootings, occurring on Sunday night and early Monday morning, that left three victims with non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.

At about 10:44 p.m. Sunday, police responded to Memorial University Medical Center, a 34-year-old man and 24-year-old man arrived in privately owned vehicles seeking care of gunshot wounds, said Eunicia Baker, spokeswoman for the Savannah-Chatham Metro Police Department.

Minutes earlier, police responded to reports of a discharging firearm at Augusta Avenue and Portland Street. The victims were reportedly shot while attempting to leave the area, Baker said.

Investigators are now searching for the occupants of a dark colored late-model Nissan Altima, last see traveling east on Comer Street.

Also, at about 1:36 a.m. Monday, police responded to reports of a fight at an IHOP restaurant on the 1800 block of East Victory Drive. Responding officers observed evidence that shots were fired at the scene, Baker said.

A 19-year-old arrived at MUMC in a privately owned vehicle seeking care of a gunshot wound. The victim was reportedly shot at the restaurant before police arrived, said Baker.  

Events leading to both shootings remain under investigation. Anyone with information on these cases should call CrimeStoppers at 912-234-2020 or text CRIMES (274637) using the keyword CSTOP2020. Tipsters remain anonymous and may qualify for a cash reward.  

A confidential tip line also is open directly to investigators at 912-525-3124.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department’s central precinct investigators are asking the public’s help in locating Christopher Bryan, 30, in connection to an illegal chop shop near Bull and West 54th streets, recently shut down by police.

Metro investigators obtained felony warrants for owning, operating or conducting a chop shop, five counts of theft by receiving stolen property (auto), second degree criminal damage to property and probation violation. Bryan is also wanted for misdemeanor theft by receiving stolen property.

On Nov. 19, investigators located the illegal automobile dismantling and parts distribution facility behind a West 54th Street residence, near a home where Bryan once lived, said Eunicia Baker, Savannah-Chatham Metro Police spokeswoman. Four stolen vehicles and a large stolen trailer were found at the facility, Baker said. Investigators believe the facility operated for at least four months. Detectives are working to determine whether Bryan started another illegal chop shop.

Bryan is a black male with a medium brown complexion, standing 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighing roughly 150 pounds. Bryan is known to frequent Yamacraw Village. He may be driving a black Ford F150 with a tan or silver bottom.

Anyone with information on this investigation or on Bryan’s location should call CrimeStoppers at 912-234-2020 or text CRIMES (274637) using the keyword CSTOP2020. Tipsters remain anonymous and may qualify for a cash reward.  

A confidential tip line also is open directly to investigators at 912-525-3124.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police urge citizens to be vigilant in using post-holiday practices that decrease the odds of falling victim to criminal activity, according to a news release from spokesperson Darnisha Green.

SCMPD issued 10 crime prevention tips to keep citizens safe during the post-holiday season:

• Do not leave unwrapped gifts visible through your home’s exterior windows.
• Break down all original gift packaging. Place packaging in plastic trash bags and secure items in a sealed garbage bin until pick up. Also, consider keeping broken down boxes inside your home until sanitation workers come for pickup.
• Inscribe high priced items such as televisions, computers and other electronics with an identification number unique to the owner. Do not use social security numbers.
• Take inventory of newly gifted items. Note the make, model, serial numbers and other important details. Photographs of items such as jewelry are also helpful. Utilize this website to upload serial numbers, photos and descriptions of valuable possessions. This will aid in recovery of your items, if stolen. 
• Be cognizant of strangers knocking at your door. Before opening the door for anyone, ask for ID. A stranger’s knock at your door may provide them the chance to scope the inside of your house for valuables and strategize for a later return.
• Keep the outside of your home well lit. When leaving, even for short periods, lock doors and close curtains.
• Avoid posting photos of your new gifts on social media sites.
• If your holiday celebrations are out of town, hold off on posting photos and information about your travels on social media until you return to your home.
• Be a good neighbor. Pay attention to any suspicious activity or persons and call 9-1-1 immediately. Don’t delay. You may prevent a crime from being committed.
• Schedule an appointment with your precinct’s Crime Prevention Officer to evaluate the security of your residence.

Tuesday, at 1 p.m., a Crime Prevention officer will be available at SCMPD Headquarters to discuss post-holiday tips in detail.

Charlotte and her four children have suffered financial hardships since January 2012. That’s when her husband, Louis, suffered a serious back injury in an accident at work. His back is still injured, and Louis hasn’t been able to return to work. Hence the family’s income has vanished, as Louis was the sole breadwinner.

Charlotte has been doing everything possible to stretch the few dollars she has but they are limited to paying for basic needs like food and housing and utility bills. Her children, who range in age from 4 to 12, have learned some important lessons over the past three years from this hardship and don’t complain.

However, Charlotte would like to give them something to smile about on Christmas morning. Then her kids would be happy to know that Santa didn’t forget them this year, as he did last year.

The Empty Stocking Fund was created by this news organization in 1971 to spread holiday cheer to children in struggling families. Giving to those who are less fortunate is what this holiday season is all about.

Contributions will be acknowledged in the manner requested by donors.

Kids on school break complaining of nothing to do? Relatives on their way (or already here) wanting you to keep their itineraries full even as you try to get last-minute Christmas gifts bought, food cooked and plans made?

We’ve got your back.

100 Things to do in Savannah

Take a look at the list and you’ll find something for everyone to do. Well, most everyone. A few choices are definitely adults-only like this one inviting you to make a stop by soon-to-close Savannah institution Pinkie Master’s (pictured): “If it’s good enough to host President Jimmy Carter and to be named one of the best Dive Bars in the country, then it’s good enough for you. Stop by 318 Drayton St. and have a PBR.” Pinkie’s will close at the end of the year, so you’ll need to hurry.

And this about Savannah’s historic First African Baptist Church: “First organized in the late 1700s, First African Baptist Church, 23 Montgomery St., is one of the oldest African-American Baptist churches in America. Still going strong today, the magnificent church stands over a portion of the Underground Railroad and played a major role in the Savannah Civil Rights movement.” See all our picks at savannahnow.com/sav100.

Savannah-Chatham police are asking for the public’s help in locating a 18 year-old suspect in a Wheaton Street shooting that killed a 29-year-old man during the week of Thanksgiving.

Police are searching for Deandre Glover in connection of the shooting death of Mario Williams said Darnisha Green,  Savannah-Chatham police spokeswoman.

At 4:02 a.m. on Nov. 27, metro responded to a shooting at a gas station located on the 700 block of Wheaton Street. Williams was found in the parking lot suffering from a fatal gunshot wound. 

Glover is described as being 5-feet-7 inches tall and weighs around 150 pounds. He has short black hair and brown eyes and is known to frequent  the Westside area.

Glover is considered armed and dangerous, Green said. Anyone who sees him should call 911 immediately and avoid approaching him.

Individuals with information on Glover’s location may also call CrimeStoppers at 912-234-2020 or text CRIMES (274637) using the keyword CSTOP2020. Tipsters remain anonymous and may qualify for a cash reward.

A confidential tip line also is open directly to investigators at 912525-3124.

The ramp to Interstate 16 west at Chatham Parkway has reopened after an accident caused a closure earlier this afternoon, according to the Chatham Emergency Management Agency.

Savannah-Chatham police on Tuesday investigated a male body found at Skidaway Island State Park.

Just after 4 p.m., an adult male was found deceased at one of the park’s campgrounds, said Eunicia Baker, police spokeswoman.

Police are working to determine the man’s cause of death, Baker said.

Neighboring campers said they hadn’t heard or seen anything unusual at the campsite.

Savannah-Chatham police department’s Violent Crimes Unit was dispatched to investigate and State Park rangers were also on the scene.

Metro police are conducting the preliminary investigations, but jurisdiction could change, Baker said.

Donna has two children, a 16-year-old son, and a 13-year-old daughter, who are doing well in school and typically make the honor roll. Both play instruments in their schools’ bands.

They’ve come a long way from earlier this year, when Donna and her children were homeless. But over the summer, she found a place to live that she could afford and got the family off the street, introducing stability to her children’s lives. But paying rent and household bills can get expensive, and Donna is a single mother with limited income. She can barely keep up with the family’s needs and has nothing left over for Christmas.

Donna would like nothing more than to give her children a happy, memorable holiday, as they’ve worked so hard this year. But it saddens her to know that such a Christmas is beyond her means.

The Empty Stocking Fund was established by this news organization in 1971 to help spread the joy of this season to needy families in our area. Readers have generously responded each year, making Chistmas brighter for many children who find themselves in difficult situations.
