Montgomery serial rapist pleads guilty to 12 counts

MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA)- The Montgomery man police say used social media to lure his victims to be raped has pleaded guilty to 12 counts relating to the rapes of five women.

At the time of his arrest, authorities called 22-year-old Roderikus Alloway a serial rapist and sexual predator. He has now pleaded guilty to five counts of first degree rape, six counts of first degree sodomy and one count of forcible sexual touching.

According to the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office, the series of rapes occurred from February of 2012 through April 2012.

Alloway would contact women via text message and phone calls in order to form a relationship with them. He would eventually invite the women over to his apartment in the Fox Run apartment complex off of Calmar Drive. 

When the women would arrive he would pull them into a dark vacant apartment and threaten them with a hammer.

LPGA coming back to Prattville in 2014 with 3 mystery sponsors

MOBILE, AL (WSFA)- The announcement was made Tuesday morning that the LPGA Tour will be returning to the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Capitol Hill in Prattville in the fall of 2014.

The Senator Course at Capitol Hill will be home to the Alabama LPGA Classic presented by the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail.

The event is being sponsored by three companies that did not want any publicity, so the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail is the glue holding the deal together. While the companies' names were not revealed, they are said to be out-of-state, American businesses.

It costs on average between $3 million to $4 million to run
an LPGA Tour. That cost is paid through ticket sales and cities. The actual purse for this tour will be $1 million and will be shared by the three
unidentified companies.

Hi there! My name is Alexander.  I am a retriever lab mix and I am about fourteen months old.  As you can see I have a shiny black coat, a white lightning bolt on my chest, and cute wing-like ears at the sides of my head! I am a really friendly guy with lots of personality and energy.  I was really lucky.  Some people found me when I was just a young puppy and they brought me to the shelter.  No one ever came looking for me so I have been up for adoption for a long time.  I have all of my vaccinations, I am heartworm negative, I have a microchip, and I have already been neutered.  I would be a great companion for a ten or twelve year old boy or girl that is active and energetic. Please come by for a visit and just ask for Alexander.  You would make my day!

CRASH VIDEOS: MPD is watching you with 10 new red light cameras

MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA)- The odds of being caught running a red light in the city of Montgomery just tilted a little more in law enforcement's favor with the installation of 10 new red light cameras that became operational last Friday.

Authorities say these additional cameras are part of the city's automated traffic enforcement program that targets specific intersections to increase safety and prevent crashes.

When a vehicle runs a red light where a camera is installed, the system will catch three images of the violation. The first image shows the vehicle before crossing the while line while the light is red, the second shows the vehicle in the intersection and the third image shows a close-up of the license plate of the vehicle in question.

Starting on Friday, May 10, drivers who run red lights at the following intersections can smile pretty for the camera and brace themselves for a fee - there will be no grace period with the new cameras:
