The University Florist is experiencing its first Valentine’s Day rush since relocating to the A.B. McKay Food Research and Enology Lab last September. Mississippi State University’s University Florist has sold fresh flowers, gifts and ornamental plants since 1928. Previously located on Lee Boulevard, the store moved due to the construction of new dining options in.
According to the employees, the suspect waited for other customers to leave before entering the store. He then pulled out a gun and demanded money from the cash register.
A woman was driving along Lee Boulevard near Homestead Road in Lehigh Acres Friday morning when a dump truck slammed into the side of her car and didn’t pull over.
