Shooting suspect in custody — Nine-year-old Bentley McCarron played the part of a victim involved in a car accident in a demonstration for Medford Area Senior High students on Thursday, April 30. The mock crash was caused by an impaired driver, with most roles represented by students. Taylor County and city emergency responders transported McCarron to the Med-Trans helicopter, which landed on Brucker St., while the driver responsible was put through field sobriety tests and subsequently detained and crews worked to free other victims in the demonstration. See pages 10-11 for additional coverage. MANDEE ELLIS/THE STAR NEWS
