Reward Offered, Bulldog Replaced
















EAST PALESTINE -- A new bulldog has replaced the desecrated one that stood in the center of town insulting every decent citizen since the night the vandals decapitated it.

According to Diana Elzer, the East Palestine Chamber of Commerce has set up an account to stockpile money to offer a reward for information that will lead to the prosecution of the perpetrator. At this time the reward is at $500.

The chamber has asked local busineses that are too small to afford their own statue to help "foot the cost of the bill" to install a bulldog for the alcove between Karen Jane's Bakery and the Chinese restaurant.

Officer Sherril Milliken said, "There is an ongoing investigation, and we are following up on a few leads." Contact the EPPD at 330-426-3531 with helpful information.
