Wow Patch, you waited a whole 9 days to report the custodian from SHS to us. And its not even a whole story. Where is the follow up?!

EA, Strongsville Patch was the first news outlet to report on the custodian incident. We had the story on Monday, as soon as we found out about it. This article is a wrap-up of news from the week; if you click the link, it takes you to the full story. As for the follow-up, the school district and police are still investigating. The investigation is expected to be done some time this week.

Ea Debbie is correct I read about this earlier in the week. The patch is one of the few places left that report the news ....not interpret the news
