Officer struggles with scofflaws


Published: Mon, August 10, 2009 @ 11:25 a.m.

YOUNGSTOWN — Police are still looking for the man who tussled with a city police officer in a grocery store over the weekend.

According to police, an officer Lewis asked a man to leave the Save-A-Lot store on South Avenue Sunday afternoon because he was not wearing a shirt, a violation of the store’s policy. The man tried to hit the officer in the face and a struggle ensued.

Reports say someone grabbed the officer from behind as he struggled with the shirtless man. Lewis then sprayed pepper spray in the area of the struggle. The men ran out of the store.

The bums have no respect for the law . No fear of jail time as too many just get probation .

The thesaurus functon does work on the software at the palatial vindy offices. A huzza for the tech guy.

Here's some more:

"desperado", "malefactor", "mug", "yardbird"

I think it's time to set the software to "automatic updates" so the thesaurus function gets updated to the 21st century.
