Reagan vetoes spending bill and shuts government
President Reagan vetoed a 427.9 billion emergency spending bill promising a shutdown of non essential operations. He said Congress offered a partial budget cut and blamed budget busting policies for nationwide hardship while about 400000 federal workers faced layoffs without pay starting Tuesday. Democratic leaders planned to wait for Reagan to specify demands.

Olmsted Township tied to Vita Mix threats and abduction case
An 18 year old Olmsted Township man, Glenn Grostitch, faced 70 counts of extortion and two counts of aggravated enticing after police linked him to bomb threat calls against Vita Mix Corp. The threats referenced a $4,000 demand and a planned warehouse explosion amid a related robbery and abduction of Vita Mix employee Cindy Eck in Olmsted Falls. The calls were recorded, and authorities traced them to a former Vita Mix employee. The same man is suspected in the Nov. 6 threat that was later deemed a fake. A second major news item notes President Reagan's veto of a $427.9 billion emergency spending bill, potentially furloughing 400,000 workers as federal agencies face cuts, with local agencies unsure of the impact.
