Jury finds Guardian liable for trucker's death but awards no damages
In a regional roundup a jury found Guardian Industries at fault in Darren Long's 2004 death when a 4000 pound glass crate fell at Guardian's De Witt plant. No damages were awarded to Long's estate. Dawn Long sued, claiming negligent safety practices. Separately, Cedar Falls police arrested Christopher M. Troyer for attempted enticement of a minor. Troyer is a registered sex offender with prior convictions. Davenport clinic arson case: David R. McMenemy pleaded not guilty to arson after driving into the Edgerton Women's Health Center and setting the building ablaze.
