Break-in at Get Go

CANFIELD

Police arrested a 19-year-old city man after the window was smashed out of the Get Go gas station early Tuesday.

Police charged Dominique O. King of Hood Drive with breaking and entering, a fifth-degree felony. The gas station at 375 E. Main St. was broken into about 2:30 a.m. Tuesday.

When police arrived, King was still inside, police said.

He told police he’d taken a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from behind the counter then went to the back of the store looking for an exit. King was in a back room of the store when police arrived. No other merchandise or money was missing.

King was booked into Mahoning County jail and is scheduled for arraignment at 5 p.m. today at Mahoning County Area Court here.

Revised tax bills

NEW CASTLE, PA.

Lawrence County treasurer, county commissioners and tax assessment office are notifying county property owners they will be receiving a revised county-property-tax bill.

Due to a programming error by Infocon Corp., numerous property owners received tax bills with the incorrect name.

The county contracted with Infocon to print and mail the tax bills. The company has partnered with the county for more than 30 years to provide the tax-billing services. County officials said the mishap will not affect any other tax bills mailed this year.

The company will bear the expense of reprinting and mailing the tax bills. If you already have paid your tax bill, disregard the revised bill, county officials said.

If you have any further questions, contact the county treasurer’s office.
