(WTVM)- It's raining cats and dogs at the Columbus Animal Care & Control Center… and right now that's not a good thing. 

The center is overwhelmed with pets and need your help to find them forever homes.

News Leader 9's Brittany Dionne visited the center to take a look at some of the fury friends that could become part of your family.

Center Director Drale Short says around this time of year they get an influx of animals.

The center can hold a maximum of 80 pets at a time, but they are well past that number according to Short.

COLUMBUS, GA (WTVM)- After several calls and emails about prison garbage workers eating and searching through trash in Muscogee County, News Leader 9 launched an investigation.

Betty Davis has lived on Harbin Street in East Columbus for nearly 15 years and says she usually puts her trash out in bags. Davis hasn't noticed anyone eating or searching through her trash, but she says that doesn't mean they don't do it.

"I don't know what they do on up further now? So they might and they might not," Davis said.

COLUMBUS, GA (WTVM)- The Powerball Jackpot has rolled over once again.

No one won Wednesday night's $360 million jackpot, so the new jackpot is $475 million.

A few people did win some money, including nine players from Georgia and a $10,000 winning ticket sold right here in Columbus.

The owner of that local winning ticket has not yet stepped forward to claim the money. It was sold at the Circle K Shell Station on Airport Thruway near the interstate off ramp.

Here are Wednesday night's numbers: 2-11-26-34-41 and the Powerball was 32.
