Vertz Charged with
Single Offense Only

An article in last weeks Courier
gave the impression that War
Vertz of Glasgow has been charged
both with possession CT stolen prop
erty and petty larceny in justice
court here. There is a single charge
filed against him, that of possess
ing stolen property, upon which he
has been released on $1,000 bail pen
ding trial. War Vertz was not charged
with nor did he plead guilty to
petty larceny. A guilty plea on such a
charge was entered by his brother,
Adrian Vertz. The Courier gladly
makes this correction to correct the
previous article, which was an error.
