A fire damaged a home at 640 Louis Perry Lane on Friday afternoon in the North Coffee community in Coffee County. One person was at home at the time of the fire, but no one was injured. The flames and smoke did heavy damage to the home.

State prison officials say they are keeping a controversial shift schedule that critics have blamed for understaffing and violence.
Correction Department spokeswoman Neysa Taylor says the 28-day schedule won’t change, although facilities may now use 12-hour shifts or 8.5-hours shifts, depending on their needs.
Correction Commissioner Derrick Schofield in October told the Senate Corrections Subcommittee the department would survey workers about schedule preferences after an audit recommended changing to a 14-day schedule with 12-hour shifts.
The Correction Department requested the audit following a public outcry over violence that workers blamed on understaffing tied to the 28-day schedule. Previously correction officers worked regular seven-day, 40-hour weeks.
The 28-day schedule was intended to control costs by reducing overtime, but an auditor said it was leading to low morale, stress and turnover.

It was a big day on Capitol Hill Thursday as Gov. Bill Haslam signed many new bills. One in particular deals with harsher punishment for people who take inappropriate pictures of others when they don’t know it.
House Bill 1448, sponsored by Rep. Mike Sparks, changes an existing law that deals with cases like what sportscaster Erin Andrews went through.
A man secretly recorded video of her through a peep hole while she was inside her Nashville hotel room.
The new measure gives judges the authority to put anyone convicted of unlawful photography on the sex offender registry list for up to 10 years.
House Bill 1448 goes into effect July 1.
