Louisville shelter charges families for long stays
Salvation Army Louisville chapter now charges homeless families $5 per night after a week at the downtown shelter. Maj. John Tolan says the fee aims to pull families from homelessness, though advocates condemn the unprecedented move. National groups were unaware of similar charges elsewhere. In a separate incident, a fire at the National Capital Trolley Museum in Silver Spring, Maryland caused about $10 million in damage to eight historic cars, with the cause still unknown. Police and 50 firefighters fought the blaze for nearly an hour after an overnight alarm.
