We
appreciate it when readers ask us questions. Yes, we forgot to
mention last month's grab bag winner in our Close Up but we will
now. Congratulations to the Lincoln Logan Crime Stoppers. A
check for $25 will be sent to them just for telling us their
important information. Don't be left out of winning some cash for
your favorite organization, and make sure that your community
information makes it to Close Up. It's easy. Just follow the simple
steps explained at the end of every Close Up.
