I'm a retired over-the-road truck driver from Niagara Falls, N.Y. In my travels into Pennsylvania, I grew to love Pennsylvania.

Bella, a small mixed breed, was savagely attacked by two pit bulls on Front Street in Sunbury.

As an oncoming vehicle approached, the runners failed to yield the right of way.

I am all for these drug busts and drug raids to get the hard drugs out of our area. But too many times these results lead to small time marijuana busts like the two Shikellamy students. I believe that is a waste of time.

And for what?

Recently, someone felt the need to add it to their ownership.
