Police arrest man accused in
downtown hit-and-run Nov. 30
Staff Report
Police arrested a Reed- ley man in connection with a morning hit-and-run Nov. 30 that injured a 14-year-old boy walking at G and 12th Streets.
Nicolas Cisneros Cruz, 43, was arrested after police tracked him down with the as- sistance of eyewitnesses who followed Cruz’s vehicle after the incident, according to a news release from the depart- ment.
Police said that officers responding to the hit-and-run just before 8 a.m. talked to the teenager, who suffered a leg injury, the release stated. Witnesses told police that the driver left the scene. Some witnesses followed the vehi- cle before losing track near Manning and Columbia av- enues.
The witnesses were able to give a license plate num- ber to police, who searched the car’s plates and found an address, according to police. Cruz no longer lived at that residence, but police located a second address and arrest- ed him there. Cruz’s car was found inside a closed garage
at the residence.
Police said Cruz admitted
to officers that he was driving the vehicle. He was arrested on suspicion of felony-hit-and- run and felony DUI. He was
booked into the Fresno County Jail, and his status was un- known as of Dec. 5.
Police said the teen was not seriously injured and is expect- ed to make a full recovery.

Forestry Challenge

Ten students from Reedley High School participated in the 2017 Santa Cruz Forestry Challenge last month. The Nov. 15-18 event at Redwood Christian Park near Boulder Creek in Santa Cruz County drew 107 high school students from 14 schools in the Santa Cruz and Central Cali- fornia regions. Students visited a redwood forest that’s soon to be harvested using single-tree selection. Teams participated in field training and a field test to assess their technical forestry knowledge.

PALM VILLAGE Continued from page A2
cent donations of each member of the Pa- cific District, the purchase and remodel of the first two-story home was complet- ed, with three wings added by 1955.
Pleasant View Manor, a remodel of the Sierra Kings Hospital in Reedley, was dedicated in June 1966. The original home was renamed Palm Haven.
In late 1981, the first resident moved
to an independent living patio home at the new campus. Palm Village Retirement Community and Patio Home construc- tion was completed in 1989. By 1985, the assisted living suites had been built and occupied to replace Palm Haven.
David Reimer, president and current CEO of the facility that includes 223 em- ployees, was instrumental in the creation of the Health Care Center in 1998, the ad- dition of 13 patio homes and the comple- tion of the assisted living memory care
suites by 2012.
It’s a remarkable 75-year history,
most easily described by the brick and mortar of the campus. Yet, the celebra- tion truly was of and for the people of Palm Village.
Residents and their families, staff, administration and volunteers who have continued the vision of the board of direc- tors from 1938 are the ones responsible for the endurance and well-being of Palm Village Retirement Community.

The drones also are banned from nighttime use and the ability to fly above 400 feet unless the agency re- ceive previous authorization from FAA.
Lusk, a Reedley resident, is a Gold Star Mom. Her son, Joe F. Lusk II, died in a helicopter crash in Kuwait in 2005. Since his death, Susan Lusk has es- tablished the CPT Joe F. Lusk II Memorial Foundation to help veterans in need.
Volunteers willing to help with any part of the event can contact Lusk at (559) 859-2865.
Ediger said at the council meeting that the department was waiting to hear back from the FAA with a response to a letter City Attorney Scott Cross drafted and sent in late October to the federal agency. The letter declares the police
