ual assault on a 12 -year-old female. The
perpetrator of this crime has been iden-
tified, but for the protection of the victim,
further details are being withheld at this
time.
Box Furniture was the victim of a
shoplifting. It had a video cassette
recorder, valued at $835, stolen from its
premises.
Two instances arose where narcotics
were involved. Arena staff reported fin-
ding marijuana plants in the garbage
dumpster. As a result of a search warrant
a quantity of marijuana plants were seized
at a local residence.

$366 worth of items were stolen. Three
young offenders have been apprehended
and charged.
