Today's riddle: Do you know what the two sides of a circle are? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Hydraulic jack slips, causing fatal RV accident in York County (wgal.com) — Authorities have identified 79-year-old Robert Emig as the man killed when a hydraulic jack slipped and an RV fell on him in Paradise Township, York County. The incident happened last Tuesday evening on Pine Road and has been ruled an accidental death, with Northern York County Regional Police continuing to investigate the circumstances.
2. Subaru Drops Secret WRX And BRZ Specials On September 27 (motor1.com) — Subaru is bringing the debut of two limited-production 2027 WRX and BRZ special editions to Boxerfest at the York Fairgrounds on September 27, putting York squarely on enthusiasts' radar. Local fans can see the new models in person, though Subaru is keeping specs, trims, and production numbers under wraps until the reveal.
3. The Warthog's Last Mission: Skills That Outlast the Plane (envzone.com) — York's Codorus Creek levee team recently rehearsed installing massive aluminum stop logs at Loucks Mill, one of the city's key flood-control points, to prepare for future high-water events. Engineers and dam operators practiced the precise sequence needed to protect York homes and businesses, echoing the article's broader theme that critical skills and knowledge live in people, not hardware.
4. Woman crashed into York County home after car chase, police allege (centredaily.com) — Overnight, a high-speed police chase in a stolen car ended when the driver crashed into a York County home at Fishing Creek and Lewisberry roads in Fairview Township. No one inside the house was hurt, but the home was damaged, and a 22-year-old Harrisburg woman now faces multiple felony and misdemeanor charges with a preliminary hearing set for Oct. 1.
5. Judge advances suit over coal ash pollution in Susquehanna River (courthousenews.com) — A federal judge has allowed an environmental lawsuit over coal ash at Brunner Island in York County to move forward, potentially forcing stricter cleanup and monitoring near the Susquehanna River. For York-area residents, the case centers on alleged groundwater contamination from unlined coal ash basins and could shape how the nearby power plant operates and protects local water quality.
