Here are the top stories today in Philadelphia:

1. Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner is being sued by former Philadelphia Police Officer Ryan Pownall and expects an impeachment vote soon from the PA House of Representatives. Citing that his constitutional rights were repeatedly violated and the D.A.'s office manipulated a grand jury and mishandled evidence and lacked candor, Pownall's case was thrown out of court by Judge Barbara McDermott last month. (inquirer.com)
2. If you have a late-night craving for hoagies, Tastykakes, or a pack of cigarettes, your Wawa might be closed. Nine Wawa's in Northeast Philly and Bucks County are shutting down overnight due to an uptick in armed robberies and crime. (PA Patch)
3. San Diego might have a praying padre as a mascot but the Phillies have Sister John Magdalen of Saint Matt's in Mayfair. "We do know God is a Phillies fan, so it's okay that we pray for the Phillies," she said. (6abc Philadelphia)

From my notebook:

• Trust me on this one, get in your car and drive 90 minutes northeast to Jim Thorpe, PA this weekend. The fall foilage is epic, the Molly Maguires historical jail needs to be visited and you'll see why we call it Pennsylvania's Little Switzerland. (Oh, and stop in the Blue Ridge Estate Vineyard & Winery and talk Eagles with Philly girl Barbara McCabe behind the bar. )(inquirer.com)
• Please don't buy dogs from sketchy social media ads. Our area has the SPCA, PhillyACCT and dozens of other non-profit pet shelters and rescues with thousands of dogs that need your couch and bed. Check out this story about stolen checks, counterfeit cash and a bunch of high priced pups. (Northampton Daily Voice)
• School District of Philadelphia: "When your principal is a Cowboys fan, it's only fitting for the school to end the week celebrating the @philadelphiaeagles victory and giving him a green mohawk! Thanks to Charles W. Henry School's Principal Ross for being such a good sp..." (School District of Philadelphia via Facebook)
