BROADVIEW HEIGHTS Neighbors on Wyatt Road in Broadview Heights woke to find oil-stained lawns behind their homes.

-snip-

The well, Kral No. 1, located near 8490 Wyatt Road, is operated by the Gonzoil Company.

Gonzalez, busy fielding phone calls, said the EPA is coming tomorrow. "It's an EPA problem. I have to wait for them," he said.

-snip-

Gonzalez said it was not crude oil that had bubbled up. "It's motor oil."

-snip-

He added that the compressor which supplies the oil rig leaks oil slowly and that the oil drained into the tile.

10. Would YOU trust a company called the Gonzo Oil Co?

You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their excuses.

Solidarity!
