Telepathic Harassment: Submitted for your consideration, at about 7:13 a.m. on Monday, April 22, Fabian Cano of Willows contacted the Glenn County Sheriff’s Office to report being harassed by his neighbor, telepathically.
Deputy Chavez responded and contacted Cano. The deputy learned he was hearing voices and believed it was his neighbor.

HCPO has reopened: The Hamilton City Post Office is open again, according to messages placed in the Orland Post Office.
