who was arrested?
I know this guy. It is a shame because he is a really bright guy. The problem is he has a terrible temper and one of these days he will kill someone. I thought he had moved out of Mason city and was living in Swaledale or somewhere like that. He used to live in Northwood but ended up in jail there too.
