Joe Scott, president of the Berryville Library Advisory Board, speaks during a news conference Friday, April 1, to announce the official beginning of the fundraising effort for the construction of a new $2.5 million library building in Berryville.

Department of Natural Resources (DNR) agents recently killed six animals while conducting an “animal rescue operation” at a Petoskey farm in Emmet County, Michigan. As part of the operation, the agents also arrested Kei Ju Farm and Rescue owner Julie Hall.
The DNR received a complaint stating that Hall was rehabilitating wild animals on the farm, which was not a licensed rehabilitation facility in the state.
Lt. Jim Gorno of the District 3 division of the DNR said Hall had already been warned about rehabilitating wild animals prior to the complaint. As the complaint followed a previous warning, the DNR moved forward with charges.
