An irate Woodford Road resident disputed facts in a feature on Carrigan Lane. Glenn Spencer, who owns property on Safford Street adjacent to Carrigan Lane but says he does not live there, denied striking a 12-year-old girl and clarified his residence. At a May 6 Village Trustees meeting his testimony helped lead to $100 fines for three tenants and the landlady for junk cars on the property. The piece also touched on a garbage burning incident he was linked to, which he did not comment on.
