Triad S.A.L.T. Council meeting

PETERSBURG - City of Petersburg Sheriff, Vanessa R. Crawford extends to the citizens of Petersburg, an invitation to attend our monthly Triad S.A.L.T. Council meeting on Thursday, April 25, at 2 p.m. at the Good Shepherd Baptist Church, 2223 S. Crater Road. Our guest presenters are Antoinette Ayers from the VCU Massey center and Natalie Pennywell from the Crater Health District. Their topic will be the New Healthy Living and Learning Center Program.

The Petersburg Healthy Living and Learning Center at the Petersburg Central Library is a partnership between the Library, Virginia Commonwealth University Massey Center and Crater Health District. The center will present information on a variety of health topics and local health resources allowing the senior citizens to choose information from videos, visual charts, and books. The center is designed to empower the community to be pro-active by increasing their health literacy awareness.

We will have trained librarians and health education specialists from both VCU Massey Cancer Center and the Crater Health District to share and demonstrate how to use the information. The program intent is not to offer health advice, but to help Petersburg residents find information regarding their health concerns and connect them to health resources within the community, such as support groups.

Triad S.A.L.T. Councils (Seniors And Law Enforcement Together) are busy year-round, building crime-fighting relationships between older citizens and their local law enforcement representatives. They are discovering new ways of enhancing the lives of those who have already given much to help their children and grandchildren grow and prosper.

Bring a friend and join us in helping to continue to provide resources for our senior citizens in helping them to stay safe and healthy.

For further information, contact Sheriff Vanessa R. Crawford at 733-2369 at the Petersburg Sheriff's Office.

Towanda man faces gun charge

Tracy Lee Vanderpool, 57, of Towanda has been charged with the second-degree felony of persons not to possess firearms, police said.

The state police said they located the guns, and, while in the process of returning them to Vanderpool, determined that Vanderpool had pled guilty to a first-degree felony charge of burglary in 1975.

Because Vanderpool was convicted of the burglary charge, he is prohibited from possessing a firearm, police said.

Vanderpool told the state police that he was unaware that it was unlawful for him to possess a firearm, according to a criminal complaint that the state police filed against Vanderpool in Towanda District Court.

Vanderpool told police that if he knew he was doing something illegal, he would have never reported the guns stolen, the complaint states.
