*************************** CORRECTION - ISSUED BY POLICE AT 9:17 AM
Good Morning.
In this morning’s news release I incorrectly stated that Steven Vincent D’Orazio, D.O.B.: 21 April 1983, of 46 Chippewa Street had been charged with theft of a dog.
The item he stole was a rotto-tiller, not a rottweiller dog.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
