Stockholm Bank Siege Ends In Brief Truce Trough
A gunman and a convicted murderer hold six hostages in a Stockholm bank vault as police drill the ceiling for a gas assault. A truce is declared until 9 a.m. EDT while food and water are passed through a ceiling opening. The gunman, who burned about half the $650,000 ransom, demanded safe passage and insisted two hostages accompany him when he leaves. Police initially misidentified the gunman as Kaj Hansson before confirming details about the suspect and the hostage situation.

Horsemeat Demand Surges as Prices Rise and Plants Multiply
The world’s demand for horsemeat grows with rising prices and a doubled number of U S packing plants from six to twelve in four months. Auctions rise from 20,000 to about 27,000 horses monthly, with as many as 60 to 80 percent believed sent to slaughter. Prices up over 38 percent, and experts warn of a looming crisis within a few years if trends continue. Inquiries note potential shortages for future buyers, while Amish farmers at New Holland grow wary as higher costs and poorer quality deter attendance. Local police arrest a loitering suspect at Snyder Circle, charging Warren Klinger amid a separate night-prowl case.

Vandals Smash Large Window At Dodds Store
Three cases of criminal mischief over the weekend are being investigated by Corry state police. About $400 in damage resulted from vandals smashing a four by six foot window at Dodd Farms Dairy Store on Scotts Crossing road with a rock. Police also note vandals fired at road signs and list a vehicle license number for checking. Separate incidents report $215 damage to ten windows at a Union City residence on Shreve Ridge road, plus damage to an electric box and a fence. A false fire alarm at Corry Area High School prompted fingerprints being dusted. Police have two car license numbers connected to the scene.
