  • Details of the accident are not currently available from the Ohio State Highway Patrol but it appeared no one was injured in the accident. Traffic on Wooster Road was routed through the parking lot of the Adventist Book Center so there was no travel interruption.

  • Read Wednesday's edition of the Mount Vernon News and mountvernonnews.com for details.

  • Community leaders and children’s advocates gathered Monday morning on East High Street to launch April as Child Abuse Prevention Month in Knox County. The gesture displays blue pinwheels, a variation on the abuse advocacy’s original blue ribbon imagery.
