An independent contractor with the Statesboro Herald is seeking to secure a warrant against Statesboro City Council member Gary Lewis, claiming Lewis stole eight newspapers Thursday morning from a dispenser box at Harvey's grocery store on U.S. Highway 80 West. A probable cause hearing for the case is scheduled for 10 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 13, at Bulloch County Magistrate Court. Lewis denies taking more than one newspaper.
