Parental abduction case prompts law state change
The assistant state's attorney and chief of the criminal division says the office reversed its stance on Lisa Mauritz's disappearance nine years earlier. A Richton Park child was snatched on her way to school, with I SEARCH coordinating missing child efforts. Alabama authorities filed charges for parental abduction, and potential extradition could override local warrants. Mauritz, now 14, lives in Michigan with her mother and has a new family.

Village residents oppose site for Simon development
Area residents and St. Lawrence O'Toole parish members object to a proposed Simon development citing potential traffic, noise, crime, diesel fumes, and danger at the congested intersection. Trustees prefer relocation to another village site, while Simon rejects changes. The board reviews refined plans for a new police building described as post modern with 24 hour lighting and asks for durable roofing and brickwork. An agreement with Lincoln Mall management lets the police book and process prisoners from the mall and nearby centers for minor crimes.
