Local notes mix traffic, thefts, and community events
Police seek tips after a car accident near the New York state line and a distressing abuse case prompts protection requests. Union City residents are urged to share names and phone numbers when calling the fire department. A chicken raid near Youngsville prompts a regional hunt. Selectees from Union City head to Randolph Field, Texas, likely as cadets or mechanics. Community plans include St Teresa’s annual lawn festival with the Coleman Band. Street production faces steel shortages affecting local industry, while local firms add equipment and await state payments.
