GM workers in court on charges

NEWTON FALLS — Lordstown’s police chief says he doesn’t believe weekend arrests are an indication of a large-scale drug selling operation at the General Motors Assembly plant.

Eleven GM Lordstown employees appeared in Newton Falls Municipal Court on Monday, after police say they caught the men smoking marijuana and drinking alcohol on their lunch break.

“The information we have is that it was mostly recreational activity,” Lordstown Police Chief Brent Milhoan said.
