Lansford Borough Council President Louis Bales said last night that all seven members of council will take lie detector tests in the ongoing investigation of a petty theft at the borough hall.

There were several reported break-ins at the Lansford Borough office on Patterson Street this spring. In one, it was reported a small amount of cash was taken.Last night, Bales initiated the subject by teasing Bob Silver, a member of the Lansford's Concerned Citizens Committee. After Silver lodged a complaint why the Concerned Citizens were not asking questions about the alleged break-ins. "Is there something you don't want to hear?" he asked.Silver said Bales had brought up the case himself at almost every meeting, so there was no need to ask about it.
