Tighter security

Enough with cellphones already.That’s what security at Warren County Courthouse repeats scores of times every day despite a bright yellow sign that sits just outside the door warning visitors the devices are forbidden.“I think some folks would rather lose an arm than not have their cellphone,” said courthouse security chief Herb Rowland. “There’s a sign that sits just outside the door that I will sit right here and see people read. Then they will come in with their cellphone anyway.”The ban is not just for cellphones and pocket knives, but for a list of items clearly detailed on the sign outside the only public access door.“They say they aren’t going into the courthouse,” Rowland said.
