Broken windows spree continues


Yet another boost in the sale of plywood this weekend, as we notice that the Quick Stop sub sandwich location on Fourth street had its windows broken in the overnight period of Saturday/Sunday.

It marks the continuation of the many troubles that downtown businesses are having with late night wanderers who seem to have ill intent on their minds.

The pace of the broken windows increasing as it has, is giving the downtown area a very rundown look of late, with a number of local establishments suffering from the unwanted attentions of roving troublemakers.

The visuals must make for an interesting conversation starter for visitors to the city, between the empty and run down store fronts of the third avenue shopping area and the broken windows of second, Third Avenue and adjoining streets.
