Police reports state that Garrett
attempted to steal $920 in S2O bills.
But before Garrett could escape, a
second unidentified employee jumped
on him and a struggle ensued in which
a third employee recovered the gun.
When police arrived, Garrett was
outside the store, on the ground in the
parking lot and surrounded by about
four to five Wendy’s employees. The
gun was still inside.
Chapel Hill police spokeswoman
Jane Cousins discouraged others from
taking such actions if faced with a simi
lar situation.
“We had positive results this time,
but this isn’t something we would
encourage victims in that situation to
do,” Cousins said.
“There’s a great amount of risk in
doing something like that."
Garrett was charged with one felony
count of armed robbery and was taken
to Orange County Jail in lieu of a
$20,000 secured bond.
His court date was set for Sept. 5 in
Orange County District Court in
Chapel Hill.
Results of the proceedings were
unknown at press time.

For the Record
In the Aug. 29 article "Students
Skeptical of Tar Heel Parking Services,”
the accompanying photo was not of Tar
Heel Parking owner Gus Mueller’s
property.
The address on Tar Heel Parking fliers
indicated the lot was located at 1119
U.S. 15-501 South. The photo in ques
tion was of a dumpster with this
address on it.
However, Mueller contends the dump
ster was moved from his lot by others
who owned property adjacent to his
and that the photo, in fact, depicted their
land. A subsequent trip to the property
by DTH reporters confirmed the actual
location of his parking lot.
In the Aug. 30 brief "Former Union
Director Howard D. Henry Dies,” The
Daily Tar Heel incorrectly reported that
Henry was from Viroqua, Wis., and
began his career at UNC in 1956.
Henry was born in Wisconsin but
lived in Chapel Hill for 42 years and
began his career at UNC in 1958.
The brief also failed to mention that
he will be survived by his wife, Bee.
The Daily Tar Heel regrets the errors.

Montana Forests Open
Following Wet Weather
The Associated Press
HELENA, Mont. - Millions of acres
of forests and grasslands in Montana
were reopening to the public Tuesday
because cool, rainy weather and increas
ing numbers of firefighters have less
ened the danger of wildfires.
The decision by the U.S. Forest
Service and Gov. Marc Racicot affects
20 million acres in areas hit hardest by
this summer’s wildfires, said Pat
Graham, director of the state
Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
“I am pleased that with the presence
of additional firefighting capabilities,
cooler weather, some precipitation and
enhanced moisture,” Racicot said.
“We are able to suspend the execu
tive orders previously issued concerning
land closure.”

There were some exceptions to the
midday reopenings.
Fire-danger restrictions also
remained in effect on campfires, smok
ing outside designated areas and off
road vehicles.
Nationwide, 81 large fires were still
burning on 1.55 million acres Tuesday
in Arkansas, California, Idaho,
Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, South
Dakota, Texas and Wyoming, according
to the National Interagency Fire Center
in Boise, Idaho.
To date, 74,755 fires have burned
nearly 6.6 million acres across the
nation, the center said.
Monday’s announcements of the
Montana land opening came as the
huge fires in the Bitterroot Valley were
on the wane, blunted by cool, rainy
weather.
