Michael L. Warner of Lancaster saw three counts of a 10 count indictment quashed by Common Pleas Judge Lowell Howard in Athens County. Seven counts remain for trial June 28 as Warner allegedly robbed Stop-N-Go on Stimson Avenue and abducted four people to Columbus. Police say shots were fired and the store clerk’s vehicle was used.
Plans for Memorial Day ceremonies at Frost were outlined by the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War Auxiliary. The events will occur Sunday May 21 rather than May 29. In unrelated legal notes, Warner faces trial with police citing witness concerns and court rulings limiting access to grand jury records and police files.
