DEATHNOTICES CONTRIBUTED PHOTO BY MORGAN MICHAEL Arby's front window was shattered Wednesday a er a vandalism occurred at the restaurant. "It was a door and front window, the office window broken and they took fryer oil and soda and dumped it everywhere," Michael said. "They opened draw- ers and dumped stuff out, took a monitor and spray- painted it, chairs out in the front were ripped, the tables and chairs were all moved around and the man wrote his name all over the office on at least five places in Sharpie, including on the envelopes of bills and the white board." There were at least two bottles of food grade lubri- cant that normally last the business five or six years dumped everywhere. What is puzzling to her and staff, Michael said, is that there were tools in the office that were moved but not taken, four flat screen televisions in the front of the business were not dam- aged and cash drawers and the safe were untouched, or at least showed no signs of pry marks. Damage included files that were in the office and a broken sprinkler in front of the business that ap- pears to have been dam- aged when a board next to it was pulled out of the ground to be used on the window, Michael said. Rocks on the ground that were used in smash- ing glass and left behind appear to come from the landscaping near the busi- ness. "It just feels strange to have someone do this to an area we spend so much time in," Michael said. "To know they've gone through our stuff." The computers and printers were damaged and some of the equipment isn't easily replaced. At least one of the computers is spe- cially made and ordered through Arby's corporate. Without it, employee's can't clock in and out and data can't be entered into the system. For now, Michael will have to take the infor- mation to another store to be input manually, she said. The store put $100,000 into a remodel completed in September 2016 and some of the remodeled items were damaged, in- cluding a new air condi- tioning system and tile.

That's just being booked." From there, the process continues with either for- mal or informal probation, which can take up to 18 months and lasts past when the youth turns 18, Marti- nez said. Sara Beck, a counselor with Right Roads Recovery in Anderson who grew up in Corning, talked about be- ing both a victim in a DUI that took the life of her fa- ther not long after she got out of prison and a DUI of- fender first. On her 21st birthday, Beck hit a parked patrol car and had a second DUI before her 22nd birth- day when she flipped her ve- hicle nine times with a pas- senger inside. In the United States, 10 percent of 12-year-olds have tried alcohol as have 50 per- cent of 15-year-olds. "I am an alcohol statis- tic," Beck said. "In high school, I started drinking on weekends, which was not a good idea and I'd tell my- self I was only going to have a few drinks and end up drinking more. I was black- ing out by the time I was 17. I drank and drove every- where and would think it'll just be a few drinks, but end up drinking more because it feels good." Beck, now clean and so- ber for more than three years, said she is living proof of what can happen when drinking starts at a young age. She also went on to use methamphet- amine, but thanks to drug court was able to turn her life around and now uses her story to try and help others. Dr. Christopher Louisell, a 31-year Emergency Room Physician, gave his perspec- tive on what he sees happen at St. Elizabeth Community Hospital. "In 31 years, I've seen a lot of really tragic con- sequences," Louisell said. "I've seen young people kill their friends or young lives snuffed out from opi- ate use and the families suf- fer. In 2013, opiate abuse killed 28,000 people in a year. Half of those were prescription drugs. That's 90 patients a day in the United States and some- how it hasn't hit the radar so there's been no action to correct it until recently. The bottom line is there are way too many narcotics in the community. People be- come addicted so they want more and they die. There's a direct correlation to how long you use and becoming addicted." Of those who use a pre- scription strength drug for a 10-day period, one in five will become addicted, he said. Those who have old medication left over should dispose of it safely as fam- ily, friends and even repair- men who have access to a house also have access to medication. Paul Tupy, supervising agent for the California De- partment of Alcoholic Bev- erage Control in the Red- ding office, talked about his organization's efforts, which in addition to lim- iting the quantity of alco- hol based upon the popu- lation sizes by limiting the number of licenses for busi- nesses, includes education outreach. They talk to businesses about the importance of checking identification and run programs to de- ter people from buying al- cohol for minors including sending youth 19 and under to local businesses to see if they can purchase alcohol or have someone purchase it from them. There is also a program geared toward in- vestigating incidents of al- cohol causing serious death when minors are involved, he said. Tehama County Health Services Agency Drug and Alcohol Counselor John Gehrung talked about the importance of reaching youth and bringing aware- ness of statistics regard- ing alcohol, marijuana and prescription drug abuse because a youth present- ing information to other youth is much more effec- tive, he said. It is also im- portant to make sure that there is not easy access to alcohol or drugs and that prescription drugs should be locked up. Friday Night Live stu- dents talked about a pre- vention project they have undertaken that includes seeking pledges from lo- cal businesses to not sell alcohol to minors. Of 18 businesses approached, 15 signed the pledge and 14 have hung up posters in- forming the public they do not sell to minors. Salisbury students pre- sented on opiate culture in America talking about how in 2013, there were a quar- ter of a billion prescriptions for opiate pain medication, which is enough for each adult in the United States to have their own bottle. In Tehama County, there were 1,120 prescriptions written for every 1,000 residents and that was 1,376 prescrip- tions per 1,0000 residents in Butte County.

Mead & Hunt will be providing the project man- agement services and re- quired construction in- spections. City staff will be in- volved in the implementa- tion of the project, includ- ing but not limited to co- ordination with the FAA, airport notifications of the closure, review of de- sign submittals, approval of any change orders and providing low profile barricades and closure crosses, said Robin Kamp- mann, city engineer. Four resolutions were adopted on Oct. 4, 2016, including authorizing former mayor, now coun- cilman, Clay Parker to execute the two grant agreements with the De- partment of Transporta- tion for an Airport Im- provement Program Matching Grant, award the construction con- tract to Tullis Inc. in the amount of $496,556 and award the construction administration services contract to Mead & Hunt in the amount of $89,777. The grant was ap- proved by the FAA and funding, in the amount of $548,804, is available for the city to use. The grant provides 90 percent of the project's funding. Another 5.5 percent, or $33,539, of the construction cost will be funded by the city's Air- port Services Revenue.

One of- ficer fired his weapon and struck the suspect, who died at the scene. The driver also fled but was taken into custody nearby with what was de- scribed as "minor physi- cal force."
