BELLEVILLE, Ill. – State Rep. Jay Hoffman, D-Swansea, is offering local residents a way to prevent identity theft and clear old paperwork from their homes at a free Community Shred Day scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 26 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Southwestern Illinois College’s Parking Lot M2, located at 2500 Carlyle Ave. in Belleville.
