Good morning, Lancaster.

Deputies arrested a Bloom Carroll High School student on May 25th around 6 p.m. in Fairfield County after he allegedly created a 'hit list' that induced panic—he was taken to the Multi-County Juvenile Detention Center in Lancaster after a juvenile court found probable cause.

The Fairfield County Workforce Center held its 4th annual Pre-Apprenticeship Graduation on May 15 in Carroll where 69 high school seniors earned certificates in HVAC, water/wastewater, carpentry, electrical and phlebotomy—Lancaster native Bobby Carpenter, a former OSU player, urged the graduates to make each day count. Several students also secured jobs or began interviewing in their chosen fields.
