Report: Libya’s Gadhafi in tent in Bedford

September
22

BEDFORD — Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi may be calling Bedford home while at the United Nations General Assembly this week, setting up his famous Bedouin style tent down the road from Martha Stewart, ABC News reported today.

He was barred from setting one up in Manhattan’s Central Park, and Englewood, N.J., after officials and residents fought his plans to stay there.

Bedford police Sgt. Thomas Diebold would not comment, referring media inquiries to the U.S. Secret Service.

“We were notified by the Secret Service earlier this morning,” Diebold told The Journal News this afternoon. “We have no comment on it from our end.”

County Executive Andrew Spano released this statement (using an alternate spelling): ” “I have heard unconfirmed reports that Khadafy may in fact be staying in Westchester. There is no legal way to prevent this as he is a head of state, despite the fact that he has a long history as a terrorist.  However, from my point of view, he is not welcome in Westchester.”

    Martha Stewart does not live down the road from Seven Springs. She lives on the other side of route 684 no where near Trumps place.
