A 55-year-old Marion resident, Lorenzo Wright, was recently taken into custody for criminal littering. Where littering is typically dealt with via civil fines, this instance stands out as Wright faces criminal charges.
Wright was arrested by the Perry County Sheriff’s Department on July 6. He was released the same day after posting a $300 bond. The specific details of the littering offense have not been released. Under Alabama law, the charge is classified as a Class B misdemeanor.
The court is set to assess the case during its first call, scheduled for August 15 at 10:00 AM.
