Corrections
@1. Body FYI Bullet:The Oregon Treaty in 1846 established the border between the U.S. and Canada that separates what is now Washington state and British Columbia. A story that ran on Page A1 on Tuesday incorrectly stated the border was established through an earlier treaty.
The first Snohomish County baby born in the New Year was named after her father’s stepmother. A story on Page B1 on Wednesday incorrectly stated the girl was named after a different person.
Dustin Robert Powell is accused of killing 18-year-old James Carlberg by stabbing him in the chest. Prosecutors also alleged that a 15-year-old struck Carlberg with a club during the attack. A story on Page B8 in Monday’s paper misidentified who was attacked.
