The 21-year old convict admits it was
"wrong."

In a hour-long telephone interview from

OQ=UPGRADE ANYTHING. <


Carilion recently hired former Bedford
City police chief Milton Graham as its
director of security services.

Heading up security services at
Lewis-Gale, is Brack Fore, a former
security officer of 20-plus years.



Both hospitals say they have 24-hour
security, but differ in operation.



At Carilion, there is an actual police
department -- staffed with 27-sworn
police officers, 16-security officers
and four full-time dispatchers.

At Lewis-Gale, no police department,
but eleven security officers hired and
trained by the hospital.



But, Carilion is also a lot bigger,

with about six thousand employees,
compared to Lewis-Gale's 15-hundred.

That likely plays a role in the number
of reported security calls a year --
Carilion more than 21-thousand,
Lewis-Gale, about six-thousand.

Despite their differences, both
hospitals say they are always looking
at ways to improve.

March It started in Dennis Ham's back
yard, after he dumped a bucket of ashes
from his wood stove.
*CG locator Bedford In court today Ham said he emptied the Today stove around 6:AM, took the ashes out
behind the shed as he has for eight
years.

He testified he neither saw nor

felt anything hot in the bucket.

While it was breezy that morning,
it was not as windy as it was later.

Ham said he worked in the yard
off and on for six or seven hours, not
noticing anything until his neighbor
came running with a garden hose,
yelling "FIRE!"

The judge did not rule today.

If Ham is convicted, he could be held
liable for the cost of putting out the
fire.
