More uninvited visitors at former Zion property

Suspects tell police they are preservation society members

Posted

Barrington Police responded to the former Zion Bible College property in the north end of town at about 6 p.m. on Sunday, June 30.

The incident was initially called in as a suspicious vehicle on the property. Police soon discovered the vehicle's registration had been suspended, so officers ordered it to be towed away.

Police spoke to the vehicle's occupants who said they were part of a preservation society and were taking photographs of the historic property. No one was charged.
