PETA letter sent to wrong town's officials

OLMSTED FALLS, Ohio (UPI) -- Officials in Olmsted Falls, Ohio, said a letter they received from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals should have been sent to nearby Olmsted Township.

Olmsted Falls Mayor Robert Blomquist and the local City Council received a letter from PETA that urged them to outlaw use of bullhooks, electric prods and other objects used to cause pain to elephants ahead of a recent circus, WEWS-TV, Cleveland, reported Wednesday.

However, the circus was actually held in Olmsted Township, which is governed by a separate group of officials. The event took place as planned Tuesday.
