The U.S. Department of Agriculture has issued a recall for a ready-to-eat beef stick product after metal parts were found in packages of “CHOMPS ORIGINAL BEEF STICK MILD.” It’s the 1.15-oz packages with an expiration date of 2-10-26, and lot code 25016 printed on the label. The Mendocino Voice says it was shipped to Safeway, Raley’s and Lucky grocery stores in California and Illinois. If you have this Chomps product, toss it immediately or return it for a refund. The Lake County Board of Supervisors says it will open discussions with the city of Clearlake over control of the Lake County Sanitation District as it pertains to the city. Last April, Clearlake officials asked to discuss control of the Lake County Special Districts, or LACOSAN, Southeast System. They say they want a governance model that would allow the city to be more involved in the maintenance and operations. Lake County News says that City Manager Alan Flora says that he is looking forward to working together.
Authorities arrested and booked two Lucerne women accused in several car burglaries. Mendocino County Sheriff’s deputies arrested 39 year old Elizabeth Arnold, and 48 year old Sarah Simon after they responded to reports that two people were breaking into people’s vehicles in the 3000 block of Estrella Court in Ukiah early Tuesday morning. Once deputies arrived on the scene, they noticed Simon, who was driving a vehicle at a slow speed with all of the lights turned off and right after that they saw another female hiding behind a car in the driveway of a residence, they identified as Arnold. Once detained, deputies canvassed the neighborhood and discovered several car doors were open and items had been stolen from the vehicles. Lake County news says once the suspects were searched, several missing items were found. Deputies say they found a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia on Simon, who had an active warrant for her arrest out of Lake County for petty theft with two priors.
