BREAKING NEWS:
Fenville Times Reporter Found Slain
   Columnist Jorge Holmstead was found dead on the grounds of the Schlock's Brewery (website) in Grand Oaks Township. He was found by a security guard around 1am Saturday morning. Police say it was an execution-style shooting, seeing as Holmstead was bound and gagged, and had been shot in the back and head at least eight times. Holmstead had been researching for his continuing column on drug and alcohol use among the city's youth, and had met with Schlock's owner Barry Norse on Friday.

Harvest Festival Ruined by Strike
   The joy of the past weekend's Fenville County Harvest Festival was destroyed by striking performers. Around 50 members of the United Federation of Street Performance Artists (UFSPA) formed a picket line at Memorial Park's two crowded entrances, and proceeded to heckle passers-by. Mimes, in full garb and carrying invisible signs, performed lewd acts in front of minors, and three striking clowns went so far as to purposely frighten small children. Ten arrests were made by Fenville police. A Spokesmime for the UFSPA had no comment.
