Two Catawba County residents were arrested in Boone this week after stealing goods from five different stores in town.
Boone police say two men from the Conover area stole $3,700 worth of merchandise from several drug and department stores, including CVC Pharmacy, Walgreens, Harris Teeter, Rite-Aid and Food Lion.
Nick Bazzle is leaving the high school he led to a state football championship during a 24-year tenure.
While most Conover businesses were closed Monday night, Conover City Council approved a move that will significantly increase the cost of doing retail business.
