Lights were on in downtown Seneca

Blue lights flashed early last night at the Seneca intersection N. 1st and Oak streets.  The police, fire and EMS on scene at a three-vehicle crash.  We are told one person was sent to the hospital for non-life threatening injuries.  A few blocks away, a large crowd gathered at city hall.  The council meeting attracted big numbers of people for the swearing-in of a new police chief and a pair of proclamations to two men who’ve assisted the city with their audio-visual and communication skills.
