CORRECTION
The crime report in last week’s edition of The Press and Standard should have said:
On Nov. 21, Roses employees reported watching a man pushing a buggy holding a television and other items, then walking out the door and leaving.
Walterboro police officers found the suspect and brought him back to the store with the merchandise. The man said he took the items as a joke and yelled “deuces” as he was running.
He was arrested and taken to jail.
The Press apologizes for the error and is happy to set the record straight.
Masks must be worn
Walterboro Police Chief Wade Marvin met with managers of about 10 local business and explained that employees and customers must wear masks. He explained the procedure and fines applicable if the issue persists.
Mower missing
A Ridgeville resident reported that between Nov. 14 and Dec. 6, a Husquavarna zero-turn, 16-inch lawn mower and trailer were taken from his residence. The suspect cut a chain to get into the building where the mower was kept.
Church burglary
Someone burglarized Soul Saving Refuge Center on Dec. 6. The complainant told deputies that forced entry was made into the church and several pieces of church equipment were missing.
