Have you been wanting a new television or VCR but couldn't afford it? Have you been needing a hedge trimmer or a chain saw for those yard projects?
Would you like a new bicycle for your kids, or a moped for yourself?
Check the items to be sold at a special auction this weekend. You might be able to pick up a bargain.
The Police Department is having its annual auction of unclaimed personal, confiscated and abandoned property Saturday at 10 a.m. at the Village Auction Barn.
The articles can be inspected Friday after 2 p.m. at the auction house at 101 Philhower Drive.
This year, the department has about 130 items that have been unclaimed for a year. The assortment includes tools, tires, auto equipment, bikes, jewelry and clothes.
Some were confiscated from burglary suspects, and police had been unable to identify the owners.
Clothing items include 149 pairs of light blue jeans, most of them size 40 or larger. by CNB
