Awareness cheers

NORTH JACKSON

The Jackson-Milton cheerleaders have been raising breast-cancer awareness throughout the month, and their efforts will culminate in a pep rally today. The cheerleaders sponsored a penny drive, worked with a local salon and school administrators to allow students to dye their hair pink this week and sold pink T-shirts that will be worn at a pep rally at 2 p.m. The cheerleaders will perform an awareness cheer and the Pink Ribbon Cheer Classic camp dance. This is a dance hundreds of cheerleaders will take part in at the Pink Ribbon Cheer Classic at YSU on Sunday. At the Jackson-Milton football game tonight, players, cheerleaders and parents will don pink for the cause.

A 24-year-old female resident in the 900 block of Madison Avenue was the victim of an aggravated burglary about 1 p.m. Thursday. She and her boyfriend and his brother were watching a movie when she happened to look out the window and saw a car traveling the wrong way on the street. Shortly after, the boyfriend’s brother got a phone call and went outside. A few seconds later, a person wearing a ski mask and waving a handgun came in, demanded the flat- screen TV, which he took, and left. Five juveniles were in the home when the theft occurred.
