Troublesome County Jail Reports Small Fire
A small fire at the Butler County Jail around 3 p.m. caused minor damage confined to a wall and a sink. Sgt. Joe Williams said a smoldering rag stuffed down a drain pipe near the juvenile cells triggered the alarm, with Richard Keil, 29, housed nearby, his cell above the jail office. No escapes occurred during the last two attempted breaches, though the 120-year-old jail has a history of break-ins.
