RED BLUFF A project that will bring about the installation of 1,100 feet of sidewalk to the Los Molinos area was approved Tues- day by the Tehama County Board of Supervisors as part of another project already planned for the area. The project, which will cost about $101,200, is being funded with money left over from a pre- vious Community Development Block Grant received by the county in 2014 and is tied in as a supplemental project of a Los Mo- linos Storm Drain and Flood Im- provement project. In February 2014, the county was awarded a $1.5 million grant and in June 2014 there were some changes to the rules and all funds CONSTRUCTION TehamaCounty Supervisors approve Los Molinos sidewalk project By Julie Zeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter COTTONWOOD Tehama County Public Health and the California Highway Patrol are teaming up to provide informational presen- tations on a variety of topics to local students. CHP Officer Troy Somavia and Public Health Bilingual Health Educator Vanessa Con- treras teamed up Nov. 12 to give a talk to eighth-graders in Rox- ane Akers' personal growth class at Evergreen Middle School on the topic of electronic cigarettes as a part of the drug education portion of the class. While e-cigarrettes were first marketed by a Chinese pharma- cist in 2004, they did not make their way to the United States until 2007 and were not popular until about 2012, Contreras said. They are not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. "We hope they will eventually be regulated," Contreras said. "A lot of the chemicals used in them are cancer causing. The same ones used in cigarettes." PE-cigarettes were invented in part because second-hand smoke is known to be toxic. While it is not as toxic, e-cig- arette vapor is still dangerous, Contreras said. E-cigarettes use vapor, which releases one-tenth of nicotine into the air compared to tra- ditional cigarettes and part of its popularity is that it does not stay in the air as long or give off the odor of a regular cigarette, Somavia said. One of the many problems with e-cigarettes is that with- out regulation there are no stan- dards for how they are made or what is in them, Contreras said. "Without regulations, there are no tests to monitor how the components are made," Contre- ras said. The e-cigarettes have made the news lately, in part due to incidents where they have ex- ploded. Contreras shared pic- tures and stories of some of the victims from a man who heard a humming while it was in his mouth and had it explode as he pulled it out to a woman who had just bought hers in the store and had it explode as she left the HEALTH E- CI G PR ES EN TA TI ON OFFERED TO YOUTH JULIEZEEB-DAILYNEWS California Highway Patrol Officer Troy Somavia and Tehama County Public Health Bilingual Health Educator Vanessa Contreras give a presentation on electronic cigarettes Nov. 12at Evergreen Middle School. By Chip Thompson editor@redbluffdailynews.com @editorchip on Twitter RED BLUFF A 26-year-old Shasta County man has been charged with robbery and elder abuse af- ter an incident in which he report- edly punched a 66-year-old man and broke the man's cell phone when he tried to call police. The victim pulled into the ampm gas station at 1080 S. Main St. around 12:50 p.m. Monday be- hind Cory Dylan as Dylan walked away, according to a press release issued late Tuesday by Red Bluff Police Department. Dylan and the man began to argue after Dylan said the man nearly struck him with his vehi- cle, the release said. During the argument the man tried to call police from his cell phone. To prevent the man from call- ing police, Dylan punched him and took his cell phone, the re- lease said. Dylan then threw the man's phone to the ground, break- ing it. Witnesses called police and Dylan left prior to the officer's arrival. An officer on the way to the call spotted the vehicle Dylan reportedly left in and initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle in the parking lot of Tehama County So- cial Services, the report said. As Dylan's vehicle came to stop, he threw a semi-automatic handgun from the car, the re- lease said. Upon seeing this, the officer attempted to imme- diately detain Dylan as he got out of his car. Dylan physically resisted the officer's efforts and it took two officers to get him into custody. The victim sustained minor in- jury as a result of being punched. Dylan complained of pain to his ribs after being taken into custody and was evaluated at St. Elizabeth Hospital before being booked into the Tehama County jail for robbery, felon in posses- sion of a firearm and ammuni- tion, elder abuse, possession of a controlled substance and resist- ing arrest.
