Lorain Library Lab Aftermath Shuts Main Branch Reopens
The Lorain Public Library Main Branch closed for days after a Nov 18 stabbing in the computer lab left a 23 year old man injured. It reopened Nov 21 as staff and patrons praised quick action by security guard John Merritt and others. Fennell faces felonious assault charges while defenders note ongoing security reviews and no arming or metal detectors planned.
