......”...a white male approximately 32 years of age laying on the ground with a gunshot wound....” I thought only chickens “laid” anything....how about the correct “lying on the ground....”

I do not expect much from Police Department press releases, except factual accuracy.

I do not expect great grammar and spelling on facebook press releases from a 12 person police department.

For the size of the department, they are doing well.

Maybe someone can organize a voluntary group of grammar and spell checkers, who will be willing to pre-check, on a moment's notice, press releases before they go out.

Call them the "Grammar Minutemen". Maybe today, the "Grammar Minutepersons".
