Registration can reduce number of scrapped bikes, MPD says (marshallindependent.com) — Marshall police are asking residents to register their bicycles so fewer end up abandoned and ultimately scrapped or recycled after 90 days in storage. The Marshall City Council is considering declaring about 50 unclaimed bikes surplus so they can be donated when possible or sent to Alter Metal Recycling. You can register your bike at the Marshall Law Enforcement Center during regular business hours.
   

2. Hearing held in Marshall drug case (marshallindependent.com) — A Lyon County judge is weighing whether there’s enough probable cause to continue drug possession charges stemming from a January search of a Marshall apartment.
