Correction

In Sunday's editions of The Columbia County News-Times, an item in Police Blotter should have read: Paul Douglas Cooper II told police that he initially argued with Nicole Wells over the amount of a debt and then she struck him in the face.

Also, Michael Ridlehoover should have been listed in Columbia Middle School's A Honor Roll.

The News-Times regrets the errors.
