Ticket-takers arrested at N.C. State Fair
FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
Two ticket-takers are charged with stealing S9BO in cash and tickets since
the fair opened Thursday, authorities said.
An 87-year-old Raleigh man and a 55-year-old Raleigh woman who
worked at the same admissions booth may have pocketed and re-sold the
tickets, then taken the money from the second round, police said.
“They weren’t doing a large number a day,” fair spokesman Brian Long said. “I’m
still scratching my head as to why they were doing it in the first place.”
Long isn’t sure how much the ticket-takers were paid.
“Maybe they felt like it wasn’t enough,” he said.
Tickets at the gate are $7 for adults and $2 for children.
NOTED. A Connecticut man pretending to
be a police officer accidentally pulled over an
off-duty cop.
Israel Gomez, 20, was arrested after turn
ing on flashing lights and using a siren and
loudspeaker to pull police Lt. Ronald Blair off
the road. He’s charged with impersonating a
police officer, reckless driving and improper
use of red lights.

QUOTED. “A good, strong syllabus is not
enough.”
Dr. Jo Winckle, who said that because teach
ers don’t have sufficient training to teach sex edu

pregnancy. Winckle spent three years observing
sex education classes and claims that teachers
focused on facts and biology when they should
have focused on ethics and moral obligation.
