in reply to Nonilex • • •City Manager Bryan Heck fielded an unusual question at City Hall on the morning of Sept 9, from a staff member of #Republican #Trump VP nom #JDVance. The staffer called to ask if there was any truth to bizarre rumors about #Haitian #immigrants & pets in #Springfield.
“He asked point-blank, ‘Are the rumors true of pets being taken & eaten?’” recalled Heck. “I told him no. There was no verifiable evidence or reports to show this was true. I told them these claims were baseless.”
