A citizen noticed the male removing a Suzuki ATV off a trailer he didn't own. The witness contacted the owner, who raced out to find the ATV was being pushed down a street and gave chase. The thief attempted to start the ATV, which didn't work and fled, leaving the ATV near the intersection of William and John St.. The thief has been identified and a warrant of arrest has been issued for a 23 - year -old male from Exeter, who is wanted on charges of theftand breaching probation. Kathy Winger of Centralia was pleasantly surprised when she checked her prickly pear cactus recently and counted 76 buds.The plant, which stays outdoors all win- ter, bloomed for the first time last year and only had two blooms, which Winger said is normal for a cactus of this variety. She said she has had the plant for four years after receiving a slip from a friend.
