Coincidence, or sloppy journalism? .

I wrote the story and what you've said has got me thinking.
We got the story from the Lancashire Fire Service website, which has an uptodate incident log, which read:
Dog fallen through ice
28th December 2005, 1:36pm
Incident number: 2585
Number of appliances: 6
Address:
Market St
Church
I had 10 minutes to get the details from the fire brigade and write the story before the press (hence why we won't have a cute dog picture until next week).
The LET reported it as Market Street, Oswaldtwistle.
It appears I did get the wrong location. If I have, I apologise...but I was simply going off the fire people's information.
