NOW YOU SEE IT, NOW YOU DON'T - Man Takes Regulator From Calhoun Control

(10/07/2003)

The dispatcher at Calhoun Control noticed he was getting chilly last night, as members of the Calhoun ambulance squad tried to cook a little supper. The burner kept going out on the cook stove. 911 dispatcher Joe Tanner said he started to get a little headache, and discovered some raw gas was in the building. "We're using a little electric heater, right now," said Tanner. "The squad is still trying to figure out what's for supper." In a tangled sequence of events, it seems a close neighbor of Calhoun Control had pulled the gas regulator to the building and had hauled it away in the trunk of his car. State Trooper Jeff Hunt responded and a short time later discovered the missing regulator, which was then returned to its site. A gas company representative from Spencer was en-route to Mt. Zion just before midnight to complete the repairs and check the building. It was unclear what disposition was made with the "regulator man."
