ICYMI

Wallaceburg’s own Shaun Suisham had a great week this week, especially off the field!

Financial details of his brand new four-year extension were not disclosed by the Pittsburgh Steelers, but the extension will keep Suisham in the black and yellow until at least the 2018 season.

Congrats, Shaun!

ICYMI #2

We held a contest recently before the 139th annual Dresden Exhibition. Jana Weese-Grubb from Dresden was the WOW winner of four bracelets for the fair that weekend.

Here is a photo of the four lucky kids who got to use them!

HOT TOPIC

Residents in the rural community in St. Clair Township had an “unwelcome” visitor last week.

Police say the man came from Sarnia, in a stolen pick-up truck, crashed the truck into a field, fled into a bush and even decided to break into Corey Kinny’s house looking for a “drink of water.”

Police are still searching for the suspect.

This story created some chatter as well:

George on Facebook said: “Great story!! Glad you are the best and first to post this!!”

DV on Facebook said: “On Sunday, Sarnia & Lambton police notified us by phone that there was a possible tornado in this area. They should be doing the same & advising residents that there is a suspect on the loose hiding in area bushes. This would assist the police with residents keeping a watchful eye to notify them & at the same time having residents lock up their vehicles to avoid another crime from happening.”

DV also said on Facebook: “Has a name been given out yet? Maybe that would help in the search.”
