From the Keep-Your-Eye-on-the-Ball Department:

"In a year when war in Iraq, the threat of terrorism and looming problems with the federal budget and the nation's health care system cry out for serious debate, the news organizations on which people should be able to depend have been diverted into chasing sham events."

--David S. Broder, columnist, 2004

 

Unidentified man offends kids at bus stop

By Joseph Sheppard

April 15, 2005 | LOGAN -- A man in a white van made obscene gestures at children as they got off a school bus at Gibbons Park on Monday, police say.

The man flipped off the children as they got off the bus from school, Lt. Richard Salveson of the Logan Police Department said. Gibbons Park, where the children got off the school bus, is at 1400 E. 350 South in the Cliffside neighborhood.

The man appeared to be in his twenties and was wearing glasses, Salveson said. There have been reports of a man in a white van following home children from school in North Logan, he said. He said the man at Gibbons Park was too young to be the same man that was seen in North Logan.

The report was made at 4:11 p.m. Salveson said they have no way to find the man or know who he is at this point.
