Drug epidemic largely to blame
The number of children in foster care locally is concerning, officials say.

CELINA - A group of people on horses helped corral a loose bull on Friday afternoon on Wabash Road.
The bull's owner, Amy McQuillan, told the Mercer County Sheriff's office that the animal escaped from Mack Arena at around 12:30 p.m., chief deputy Gerry Thobe told the newspaper.
