Mishap at courthouse Tuesday

Policeman George Foster moves a bench from the scene

A mishap on the lawn of the Crittenden County Courthouse destroyed two aluminum benches around 10:15 a.m., Tuesday while county workers were moving furniture at the building set to be demolished in the coming months.

A vehicle swerved onto the sidewalk along Main Street before stopping at the intersection of West Carlisle Street. 

Marion City Policeman George Foster moved the second damaged bench from the car's path before it was allowed to leave the scene.
