• MAN DRIVES TRUCK THROUGH CAS!

  
  Report From CBC
  Neighbours of a Windsor man are speaking out after he drove a flaming truck into the Children's Aid Society building. 49-year-old Jim Malone crashed into the front of the building, with two 20-pound propane tanks and two 5-gallon gas cans in the truck.

  Malone had been running a group home in the South Walkerville area for the C-A-S. Neighbour Laura Lebute says the job must have pushed him to the brink. Sources tell AM 800 News, Malone had recently lost an agreement to run a group home and was very upset.

  Executive Director Bill Bevan says the man resigned a few months ago. Malone is in "critical condition" with 2nd degree burns over 20 per cent of his body and has an apparent self-inflicted stab wound. Damage to the C-A-S building is pegged at more than 1.5-million dollars.

• Great place to give and receive free stuff. Important if Children's Aid has your children because your apartment is "messy". You can obtain a free dresser to help with storage of clothes, or boxes for cleaning and sorting stuff, etc. Also if you have too much stuff and you are ready to give some away, this is also a good idea. This is why it is relevant to this web site.
