Prison Jaycees Present $10,000 Van To Norma Milam

RICHMOND AP Prison Jaycees at Virginia State Penitentiary raise more than 11 thousand dollars to gift Norma Milam a specially equipped van allowing independent access. The van enables her to drive and enter, with a platform lowering and rising for her wheelchair. Milam, 29, born without arms and with dwarfism, holds a bachelor’s in counseling and is pursuing a master’s. The project, started last year as Project Norma, garnered community and fairground work, totaling about 11.5k to fund the 5.4k van and its devices.

Democrats face stern test as district primaries loom

In Virginia's 8th and 10th districts Democratic winners Joseph Fisher and Herbert Harris seek to unseat Republican incumbents in November. Fisher leads after Arlington County results with 10,788 votes against three opponents. Harris dominates Fairfax County, finishing with 7,578 votes. Independent filings make both races four-man contests, likely drawing more votes from Democrats. In Ohio, Medina dog warden Mike Wantz had his uniform trousers shredded by a washing machine, which the manufacturer will reimburse.
