Battling ballasts

Thursday, March 24, 2011
Greencastle Fire Department firefighter Ken Shepherd waits outside of 12 N. Jackson St. while two other firefighters respond to a call received Wednesday afternoon. People in the dance studio claimed to smell smoke in the building and called the fire department. The smell came from a shorted out electrical ballast from a light fixture. The fixture was properly removed and will soon be replaced.

  • Xgamer.

    Why is there so much hate in you?

    You were not that way 15 years ago!

  • I read my comment over, and over, and could not find any hate. I remember grinning while typing, and was even tempted to clown on Shephard, since I've known him his whole life. I don't hate him either.

    If you knew me 15 yrs ago, you would know why I commented on this particular story. Now, Old Man, you should comment on the article like a good reader and give attention to Mr Logli and not my attitude.
