In an ongoing discussion about bullying in area schools, WCBC’s Dave Norman recently spoke with Rob Fout, owner of the Gun Shop in Ridgeley, who carries a line of personal self-defense items. Fout said that bullies do not like negative attention…

WCBC brought Allegany County Board of Education President Bob Farrell into the conversation, who said that it could be something worth investigation by the school safety supervisor, Anthony Rumgay…
