Oil Tank Feud in Lafayette Ends with Altercation
Fire Commissioner Angel faced pushback from Lafayette residents over a proposed 1 000 barrel oil tank. James Hughes reportedly grabbed Angel by the throat and threw him into a gutter after an interview. Citizens vow to appeal to the Fire Board to rescind the tank approval, fearing odors and property devaluation near Halliday Street and Griffing Iron Works. Commissioner Angel, a New York lawyer, was appointed by Mayor Fagan.
