A home invasion in unincorporated Apache Junction left
one man wounded and two
others at large Monday, March
17, 2014.
A 59-year-old homeowner
shot and wounded suspect Sal
Anthony Olmos, 19, of Mesa
as he and two other hooded
suspects attempted to break
in the back door of the residence.
Tim Gaffney, of the Pinal
County Sheriff’s Office
(PCSO), stated that the incident occured around 8:20
p.m. in the 2600 block of
West Canyon Street (near
McKellips Rd. and N. Delaware Dr.) when the homeowner heard noise at his back
door and saw three hooded,
armed men on his home security camera.
The homeowner fired a shotgun round through the door
wounding Olmos in the groin
and upper legs.
Someone else in the home
reported seeing a laser sight
pointed at his head from outside and fired a shot from his
handgun.
The suspects outside returned
fire from handguns and then
fled the scene, but Olmos was
later found in a neighbor’s
yard, unable to run with his
non-life-threatening wounds.
According to Gaffney, the
suspect said he was owed a
large sum of money by one of
the individuals inside the
home and he went to the home
with two other suspects to collect the money. Olmos admitted they were all armed and
brought “black zip-ties” so
they were “prepared for whatever.”
In the yard where Olmos was
found, detectives recovered
black zip-ties, a hooded sweatshirt and a .45 caliber handgun.
Sheriff Paul Babeu stated,
“Sal Olmos admitted to shooting the handgun into the home
and being high on methamphetamines for several days.
The News
Pinal County Supervisor
Steve Miller would like to
see the county jail off the
budget. It has been costing
the County millions annually
since a contract with U.S.
Immigration and Customs
Enforcement (ICE) was negotiated in 2006. An audit in
2012 revealed that the ICE
prisoners were costing the
county more to house than
the contract pays.
Supervisor Steve Miller (left)
and Sheriff Paul Babeu (right)
At the Supervisors work
session on Wednesday,
March 19, Miller proposed
cancelling the ICE contract
and selling the jail to a pri-
vate company. Miller is concerned that the jail is draining the County’s general
fund and said “If we were to
unload that jail, we could
(save) $8 million a year.”
Sheriff Paul Babeu was reportedly surprised and outraged by the suggestion. As
reported by Brian Wright in
the Maricopa Monitor, Babeu
said “The law states that the
sheriff shall maintain the care

Springtime Under Arizona Gold Mining & Stamp Mills
The Big White Tent History of mining and processing is topic at Superstition Mountain Museum
Artists of the Superstitions to mount
their big seasonal show
Visitors will experience fine
art from over 30 artists representing art in painting, photography, pottery, jewelry,
woodworking and gourds at
the Artists of the Superstitions’ Spring Show.
This years’ exhibition will
be on Sunday, April 13, under the Big White Tent at
Gold Canyon Golf Resort,
6100 South Kings Ranch Rd.,
Gold Canyon. The event is
held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The Artists of the Superstitions (AOTS) is a juried art
group of award winning art-
ists from Apache Junction and
Gold Canyon and was formed
in 2007. AOTS sponsors five
fine art shows every year, including the popular Studio Art

Gold has been prized by people since the earliest times.
Gold’s special properties mean
that it has a greater variety of
uses than almost any metal.
Gold conducts electricity, does
not tarnish, is very easy to
work, can be drawn into wire,
can be hammered into thin
sheets, alloys with many other
metals, can be melted and cast
into highly detailed shapes,
and has a wonderful color and
a brilliant luster.
On Thursday, Mar. 27, Charlie Connell will talk about
gold mining and gold stamp
mills in general and about the
Swallow Gold Mine in particular, located 15 miles north
of Wickenburg, where there
were two gold stamp mills on
site. He will explain what
stamp mills are, how they
work and the importance of

All Aboard: Obies Trains Grand Opening Thank You AJ!
New model train and hobby destination opens this week in Apache Junction Desert clean up was a success
The News
Who is not fascinated by intricate dioramas that accurately capture the mood, time
and place of a town and its
landscape? Add in a moving
train with rail switches, lights
and whistles—all lovingly
miniaturized—and you become a modern Gulliver in
Lilliput. The effect is magic.
Fred Obermeyer has managed to wrap up that magic
and offer it up to you in his
new store, Obies Trains.
The store’s Grand Opening
is set for 10 a.m. on Tuesday,
March 25. The Apache Junction Chamber of Commerce
will join in the celebration
with an official ribbon-cutting
at that time, so be sure to
come out.
“There is something for everyone,” Fred told The News.
“Prices range from $3 to
$1,000 and we have all model
scales and track gauges.”
HOURS:
Open
Mon.-Fri.
9am6pm
Fred especially likes the N
scale because of its standardized component system.
The store is packed from
floor to ceiling with everything for both the novice and
the seriously-hooked train
enthusiast. There are two dioramas in the center of the
store, one representing the
Salt Lake Route and the other
is “The World’s Greatest
Hobby” setup.

scouting. Charles later became a decorated (Distinguished Service Cross) soldier during WWII and fought

The desert area under the

is now free of unsightly debris thanks to the efforts of
about 55 community minded
individuals.
They came to help as individuals, couples, families,
and groups because they
wanted to make a difference.
This effort was led by Leslie Bennett, member of the
Northern Pinal Partnership

Viewpoint & Opinion
“The most perfect political community is one in which the middle class is in control,
and outnumbers both of the other classes.” — Aristotle
No good deed goes unpunished
We really hate to send this Letter to the Editor. I feel ashamed
to report how badly we were taken by this man. But, perhaps
if we report our experience, others will not suffer the same
fate.
My wife and I could not have children. She always wanted
them, but I was injured and became unable to have children.
Tony and his wife have four lovely girls. My wife fell in love
with them. When we moved from Albuquerque to Apache
Junction, we helped them to move here with us financially.
He helped us to move our things physically.
When we bought a second house in Apache Junction with
four bedrooms, we allowed them to move into it. The agreement was that after he got settled here and got a job, he would
start paying rent in January, 2012. They moved in during
March 2011 and never paid a single month’s rent until Adult
Protective Services helped us to get them out as of December, 2012. So they lived in our house rent-free for 18 months.
In addition, we paid for their sewage and water bills. We
made no attempt to collect past due rent.
In addition, we gave them a lot of money. We have gotten
nothing back at all even though the agreement was that they
would pay us back. In addition, I bought both him and his
wife iPhones to get his landscaping and home repair business
started. Yet, when he moved out, he caused $6,000 worth of
damage to the house (receipts available). Doors were caved
in, walls were damaged, and we had to paint the entire house,
inside and outside.
I have included some of the checks we paid to them. Please,
do not print his full name. After they moved out of our house,
our garage door was damaged three times (police reports
made). I found two dead pigeons in front of our house (photos made). And our new gardener found poisonous mushrooms (Death Caps and Destroying Angels) in our back yard.
These vicious acts convinced me that this man would not
hesitate to use violence against us.
In fact, tonight, March 16 at 2:57 AM as I write this letter,
there was a prowler in our back yard again. We called the
police and Officer Hicks arrived to check out the property.
He did not find anyone, but the motion detecting lights and
alarms in the back did go off a half hour before.

Russian Fox
A Russian newsman has
raised global eyebrows by
noting in a television commentary that Russia is “the
only country in the world capable of turning the USA into
radioactive dust.”
Dmitry Kiselyov delivered a
diatribe against critics of the
Ukraine incursion with a picture of a mushroom cloud on
the studio wall behind him.
At one point, Kiselyov attributed President Obama’s
increasingly gray hair to worries about Russia’s nuclear
arsenal.
Mr. Kiselyov actually has a
pretty good point. Russia still
has an estimated 8,500 nuclear warheads, which is more
than the United States.
However, the point Kiselyov
is missing is that the U.S. also
has more than enough nuclear
weapons to turn Russia into
“radioactive dust.”
An example of two dimensional Russian thinking.
Generational Divide
Mature American conservatives oppose same-sex marriage, abortion, legalizing
marijuana, immigration reform, affirmative action, food
stamps, Medicare, Medicaid,
social security, taxes and any
programs to help the elderly
or poor.
Young conservatives disagree with them on pot.
Quick Pick
IRS information shows that
the number of millionaires in

Theater of World War II. The
Chinese advisor was Wan Fau
Hsuch. The demolition and
explosive expert was Sgt. David Lamb, U.S. Army, assigned to the film project by
the U.S. Army.
The completion of this film
under such isolated and severe summer weather conditions was quite an accomplishment for Hollywood.
The stars, production people,
technicians, and workers were
not accustomed to the extreme temperatures of the Sonoran Desert.
I recall the production of this
film very well. We had just
completed the roundup at the
Quarter Circle U Ranch, and I
was driving over to the Tortilla Ranch to help out Floyd
Stone with his roundup. Barkley often helped Stone with
his spring roundup and viceversa. It was a hot day as I
drove along the road toward
the Tortilla Ranch turnoff.
Near Stone’s shipping corrals
on the Apache Trail I ran in to
the film company setting up
for a shoot. I told them I was
headed into the Tortilla Ranch
and would be there for a few
days. This was my exposure
to the film Mountain Road.
No, I didn’t get to meet James
Stewart or any of the stars of
the movie.

Miller said he had sought
advice from the Pinal County

reportedly think the state law
is ambiguous regarding such
a sale.
An effort to bring ICE back
to the table to renegotiate the

the County and ICE agreed to

Thank You AJ Firefighters
I would like to thank the men from the Apache Junction Fire
District who helped the Medical Transport Service driver
move my wife from her hospital bed to the medical transport
bed for transport to an adult group home.
My wife has Alzheimer’s disease and is unable to stand or
much less walk. She was at the emergency department at
Mountain Vista Hospital for a CAT scan of her chest area.
The CAT scan was negative and I had waited for about three
hours for the medical transport back to the care group home.
At about 5:15 p.m., the driver appeared and he was alone. I
am 77 years of age and have a bad back so was unable to help
the lone driver to move my wife.
I saw several AJ Firemen at the nurse’s station and asked if
they would assist us in moving my wife. They very graciousfrom Fire, A-3
ly had four men volunteer to help and they did. They were
extremely professional and eager to help. I cannot thank them
enough for their kind assistance. I did not get their names at to be the point of
the time, but I will always remember their caring help. To origin.
those men, I thank you once again and may God bless each of Later the resident

Prospectors Suffer Pair Of Tough Losses
By Chuck Baker
The News
The Prospector varsity
baseball team suffered a
tough 5-3 loss to Poston
Butte last Tuesday in extra
innings, and then gave up
four runs to Tempe in the
bottom of the sixth inning
in a 7-3 loss on Friday.
Trailing 2-0, Apache Junction tied the game 2-2 in the
last half of the sixth inning
on a RBI fielder’s choice
from Nick Iannettone to
score Prescott Horn, and
a run-scoring triple to left
center field from Brett Darling that scored Iannettone.
Neither team scored in
the seventh and then Poston Butte put up three runs
without a hit in the eighth
inning, and held on for the
5-3 win.
Poston Butte took advantage of three walks, a
hit batter and a misplayed
sacrifice bunt to score their
three runs in the eighth.
The Prospectors came back
with one run in their eighth,
a RBI single by Iannettone
to score Justin Willis, who
singled to get on base.
Adam Abbatacola tossed 5
and 2/3 solid innings from
the mound, allowing just
four hits and one earned
run. Nick Lee Gay tossed
an inning and a third of
scoreless relief, and Christian McDonald pitched one
inning without yielding a
hit or run.
Iannettone added an infield single in the loss and
Ben Barchilon had a pair of
singles for the Prospectors.
Against Tempe on Friday,
both Iannettone and Darling
Girls, continued from page 9
Second baseman Ian McIntyre goes to his knees to snare

with his base hit, and Jordan
Jewell also had a hit.
Also last week, Apache
