*A Metro section brief on Friday reported that Brian Biladeau, a 17-year-old charged with molesting a 4-year-old boy and sexually assaulting a 9-year-old boy, worked at a candy store on the North Side, Flavors on Avers. He was not an employee of the store.
*A story in some Metro editions Wednesday carried an inaccurate headline about a vote by the Carpentersville Village Board. The board approved a non-binding resolution to make English the village’s official language.
*A story in Wednesday’s Metro section misstated the amount restaurant owner Roberto Martinez received in a buyout from his landlord of his options on property for his restaurant, Lindo Mexico, in Niles. He said he was paid $100,000.
*A June 13 story about the Martin Luther King memorial in Washington was unclear about why the memorial can be built on the National Mall. The location of the memorial had already been approved when Congress passed a law restricting new monuments. The law allowed for already-approved monuments to be built.
*A May 29 main news section story about the National Conference of Black Mayors gave an incorrect age for Johnny Ford, the mayor of Tuskegee, Ala. He is 64.
The Tribune regrets the errors.
*A chart on World’s Fairs on the front page of Tuesday’s Tempo section omitted the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair. That event had attendance of 51 million, but it was not an internationally sanctioned World’s Fair.
