NEWS IN BRIEF Postal office openfor help Saturday BLOOMINGTON -- The Eagle Station Post Office, 1211 Towanda Ave., will be open for retail service from 8:30 a.m. to noon Saturday, which is Christmas Eve. Eagle Station staff will be on duty until 5 p.m. to help customers with package pick-up. The 24-hour access to post office boxes and vending services, including the automated postal center, will be maintained. There will be no change in posted mail collection schedules. Delivery service will be completed on Saturday in its entirety. Regular hours will resume Tuesday. IN COURT Convicted killer pullsmotion for new trial OTTAWA -- A Streator man convicted of killing a Streator youth has withdrawn his motion for a new trial after a key witness to that motion was killed in a car accident. Dion Jenkins, 26, pleaded guilty seven years ago to stabbing Justin McMillan, 17, during a fight. He based his motion for a change of plea because he said his lawyer, James Reilly of Arlington Heights, took advantage of Jenkins' illiteracy to coax the guilty plea. The motion was to be heard next month in front of LaSalle County Judge Cynthia Racuglia. Reilly was to take the stand as a key witness, but it was withdrawn after the accident earlier this year. Jenkins will continue to serve his 25 years in prison. He is scheduled to be up for parole in 2023. Setting it right Local Habitat blessing The first name and age of Makayla Cameron, 4, and the age of her brother, Andrew Sharp, 2, were wrong in a story in Sunday's Pantagraph. Makayla's name also was misspelled in a photo caption. Dictionary The most looked-up word on Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary is "integrity." The word was inadvertently omitted from a list in Monday's Pantagraph. "Blog," the 2004 top word, was added. The Pantagraph values accuracy. If you see something that is inaccurate, report it to the editor of the section. All corrections will run in this space, except Sundays. If you are not sure whom to call, contact Editor Terry Greenberg at (309) 820-3230 or tgreenbergyayaypantagraph or Managing Editor Mark Pickering at (309) 820-3252 or mpickeringyayaypantagraph.
