A story in Thursday's Local & State section gave the wrong day that Stephen and Abby Tyler were shot as they closed their family business in Gaffney, S.C. It was Thursday, July 2.

An item in Thursday's Across the Region column omitted the first name of Wilmington city attorney Tom Pollard.

A headline on a story in Thursday's Local & State section about a Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools official should have said he had been offered a job in Sacramento. It has not been finalized.

In some editions of Thursday's Observer, Tommy Tomlinson's column gave the wrong order for the funerals of Patrick Burris' victims. The services for Stephen and Abby Tyler were the last funerals.

An incorrect photo was used with a profile of volunteer Nahiem Hood in Thursday's Observer. This is the correct photo.
