Classified Ad Wishes for
Assassination of President Obama
The name of a person who placed a classified ad wishing for the assassination of President Barack Obama has been turned over to federal authorities.
The ad that appeared in Thursday's Warren Times Observer said "May Obama follow in the footsteps of Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley & Kennedy!"
Newspaper representatives say the employee who took the ad didn't make the connection that the other presidents had been assassinated.
When they realized the mistake, they discontinued the ad and gave the name of the person who placed the ad to Warren City Police, who forwarded the information to federal authorities.
