Window Break Rumor Tied to Rifle Shot False
A large window at the Warner building on W Columbus St in Nelsonville was broken by a possible steel spring piece from a wheel not a rifle shot. Officers investigated found the window damaged by a small steel fragment near a larger hole. A nearby arrest for intoxication and resisting arrest was unrelated to the incident and a gun found in custody was retained.
