Lancaster Post circulation box not stolen after all

In response to its inquiries, NewsLanc has learned both from the Lancaster Police Department and from the Lancaster Post that last week the Post's circulation box at School Lane and Marietta Avenue had been properly unchained from the telephone pole by Verizon, but mistakenly removed.

The box has now been chained to a non-Verizon pole.

While the Post was quick to alert NewsLanc to the missing box, it apparently did not occur to the publishers to advise NewsLanc that it was recovered and, in fact, had not been "stolen." NewsLanc apologizes to our readers for not having followed up on the story earlier.

And NewsLanc reminds the Post about the little boy who called "wolf".
