Lima 6th Ward Councilman Derry Glenn is in urgent need of donations of air conditioners as a long-duration heat wave scorches the region. Glenn says he is currently out of air conditioners to install inside apartments and homes without proper means of effective cooling. The shortage of air conditioners comes as Glenn has received over 25 calls for help. And those calls extended as far as Wapakoneta, Delphos, and Cridersville during a stretch of temperatures well into the 90s. With the unrelenting heat, Glenn says the need is critical in order to protect health and prevent heat-related illnesses.
