Runway light tampered as deputies log crime surge in county
Deputy sheriff reports a red approach marker light unscrewed on the Batavia runway during a routine patrol. Across town a Monterey Road resident says burglars entered her home, stole firearms, and an unlocked barn yielded a spare tire and a wrecked pickup stereo and battery. Between Dec 31 and Jan 16 deputies arrested 34 people and served 110 warrants. Notable arrests include a Goshen man charged with multiple rape counts and a Hamersville youth charged with felonious assault. Detectives also linked a 1984 Dreamland Skating Rink break‑in to a Bethel suspect, with juveniles charged in property cases.
