The afternoon of April 8 started like many others at Kolomoki Mounds State Park, a nearly 1,300-acre Native American historic site in remote southwest Georgia. Travelers trickled in and out of the visitor center, as park staff fielded questions about navigating the vast site. Then, at around 2:45 p.m., a bald man wearing glasses walked in carrying a cardboard box. Surveillance video shared with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution shows him approach the counter, place the box on top and then tell a park staffer, “I believe this belongs here.”

Atlanta traffic has a villain — and it’s shaped like pasta. Spaghetti Junction, officially the Tom Moreland Interchange, is one of the most infamous traffic bottlenecks in the South, where I‑85 and I‑285 collide. It’s even name‑dropped in Outkast’s “Stankonia.” The five‑level interchange replaced a clogged cloverleaf in the early 1980s, after earning the nickname Malfunction Junction. The redesign from the Georgia Department of Transportation eased congestion for a time, but rapid population growth turned it back into a daily commuting logjam. The AJC’s Jordan Pettiford breaks down how a traffic solution became a lasting problem. 🎥 : AJC | Getty | @throwedoffjaun, @kjackzsupreme/IG | @dajwajj/TT | Outkast | Sony Pictures 📸 : Bita Honavar, Floyd Jillson / AJC #spaghettijunction #atlantatraffic #urbanplanning #atlanta #news
