Town cracking down on theft at dump
Police may be called in if people are caught taking from the metals pile BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

police officers, not the facility's staff, who will enforce it. “No matter how you look at it, it’s stealing, it’s theft,” selectman Larry Martin said at Tuesday’s selectmen meeting. “It’s out of control, there’s no two ways to say it.”
“It’s not something we can enforce,” public works director Paul Degliangeli said. When staff approach people they get harassed and threatened, he said. see METALS page 8

Wildlife specialist bear technician from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Jake Borgeson, arrived on the scene in less than an hour. Borgeson said he couldn’t tell how long the bears would wait in the tree, but, keeping onlookers away would be key in helping the bruins. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)
