SHE\u2019S ALSO A PROFESSOR OF PUBLIC POLICY AT GETTYSBURG COLLEGE. NOW, SHE SAYS THE COMBINATION OF THESE GIVES HER A BROAD UNDERSTANDING OF THE BOROUGH\u2019S NEEDS. THE MAYOR\u2019S AN INSTRUMENT OF THE PEOPLE AND SHOULD BE APPOINTED DUE TO THEIR ABILITY TO LISTEN, TO EXERCISE JUDGMENT, TO UNDERSTAND THE OVERALL COMMUNITY NEEDS AND INTERESTS. LINTEL SIGNED HER OATH OF OFFICE IMMEDIATELY AND TOOK HER SEAT AS MAYOR AT LAST NIGHT\u2019S MEETING. SHE\u2019LL SERVE THROUGH THE END OF 2027. SHE SAYS THE FIRST THING SHE PLANS TO DO AS MAYOR IS GET OUT IN THE COMMUNITY AND SPEAK WITH RESIDENTS. ALL RIGHT. THANKS, GABRIELLE. TONIGHT, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF LANCASTER SCHOOL BOARD IS HAVING A SPECIAL MEETING WHERE IT COULD DECIDE TO PAVE THE WAY FOR FURLOUGHS OF MORE THAN 100 EMPLOYEES IN THE FUTURE. THEY SAY THAT\u2019S BECAUSE OF A $10 MILLION DEFICIT THEY SAY WAS CAUSED BY AN ACCOUNTING ERROR. SO TONIGHT\u2019S MEETING COMES A WEEK AFTER THE BOARD POSTPONED ITS DECISION AT A MEETING PREVIOUSLY. NEWS EIGHT\u2019S TAYLOR HESSE IS JOINING US LIVE IN LANCASTER WITH WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW BEFORE TONIGHT\u2019S MEETING. GOOD MORNING. TAYLOR. GOOD MORNING MATT AND CAITLIN. THE BOARD SAYS THEY PUSHED BACK THIS MEETING IN ORDER TO TAKE THE PUBLIC\u2019S PUBLIC\u2019S FEEDBACK INTO CONSIDERATION. LAST WEEK AT LINCOLN MIDDLE SCHOOL, COMMUNITY MEMBERS PACKED INTO A MEETING ROOM, WHICH HAD TO BE EXPANDED INTO THE CAFETERIA TO ACCOMMODATE THE LARGE CROWD. DURING THAT MEETING, BOARD MEMBERS EXPRESSED THEIR DESIRE TO AVOID FURLOUGHING ANYONE, BUT EXPLAINED THAT STATE LAWS REQUIRE THE DISTRICT TO ADOPT THIS TYPE OF RESOLUTION AT LEAST 60 DAYS BEFORE A FINAL BUDGET IS IN FOR THE NEXT SCHOOL YEAR. I DON\u2019T LIKE THIS RESOLUTION. I DON\u2019T REALLY LIKE IT ONE BIT AT ALL. BUT WHETHER OR NOT IT COMES TO A VOTE TODAY OR NEXT WEEK, I\u2019M GOING TO VOTE FOR IT. AND NOT BECAUSE I THINK IT\u2019S GOOD, BUT BECAUSE I THINK IT\u2019S IT\u2019S NECESSARY. OF THOSE EMPLOYEES THAT COULD BE IMPACTED. 73 ARE INSTRUCTIONAL, 15 ARE ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF AND 21 ARE OTHER FACULTY MEMBERS. NOW, THE DISTRICT DID ALSO NOTE THAT STUDENT ENROLLMENT HAS DECREASED NEARLY 14% IN THE LAST DECADE, WHILE THE NUMBER OF FULL TIME EMPLOYEES HAS INCREASED BY NEARLY 9% IN THAT SAME PERIOD. NOW, TONIGHT\u2019S MEETING WILL KICK OFF AT LINCOLN MIDDLE SCHOOL AT 630 IN LANCASTER CITY. TAYLOR HESS, WGAL NEWS 8. ALL RIGHT. THANKS, TAYLOR. RIGHT NOW, POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR THE SUSPECT AFTER A DEADLY SHOOTING IN STEELTON, DAUPHIN COUNTY. THIS IS SECURITY CAMERA VIDEO SHOWING PEOPLE RUNNING FROM THE PARADISE PALACE ON NORTH FRONT STREET. THIS WAS AROUND 4:00 SUNDAY MORNING, ACCORDING TO STEELTON POLICE CHIEF. THE VICTIM WAS 36 YEAR OLD AARON ANDERSON, JUNIOR. HE WAS SHOT AND KILLED. THREE OTHER PEOPLE WERE ALSO HURT. DAUPHIN COUNTY D.A. FRAN CHARDO SAYS ONE OF THOSE INJURIES IS VERY SERIOUS. THE BOROUGH COUNCIL MEETING LAST NIGHT IN STEELTON, THE POLICE CHIEF SAID HIS DEPARTMENT IS SHORT STAFFED AND THEY NEED HELP. NEIGHBORS ALSO SHARED THEIR CONCERNS ABOUT VIOLENCE IN THE AREA. USUALLY THE PEOPLE AROUND HERE LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER. I\u2019VE NEVER REALLY FELT WORRIED ABOUT MY SAFETY UNTIL BASICALLY THIS BECAUSE IT HAPPENED NEXT DOOR HOURS AFTER THE SHOOTING ON SUNDAY, MAYOR SARAH DENT SHUT DOWN THE PARADISE PALACE, USING AN EMERGENCY PROCLAMATION TO DO SO. SHE DEEMED THE PROPERTY A NUISANCE AND PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD. LIKE OUR KIDS WALKING DOWN THE STREET AND NOT THE MAYOR, THAT\u2019S A SAD REALITY. IT\u2019S SCARY DOWN HERE AND IT SHOULDN\u2019T BE. THIS IS THE SECOND BUSINESS THAT THE MAYOR SHUT DOWN. SHE ALSO DID SO LAST YEAR USING A SIMILAR EMERGENCY DECLARATION AFTER POLICE SAY THAT TENANT WAS SHOT IN THE LEG AT THE SOUL LOUNGE ON FRONT STREET IN STEELTON. THAT BUSINESS SHUT DOWN FOR SEVEN DAYS. HIS NEXT COURT DATE IS SET FOR MAY 18TH. TWO. HARRISBURG NOW POLICE ARRESTED A MAN WANTED FOR ATTEMPTED HOMICIDE. POLICE SAY THAT JEREMY MARSHALL ATTACKED A BOUNCER AT A BUSINESS DOWNTOWN. POLICE SAY MARSHALL WAS KICKED OUT OF THAT BUSINESS, HAD MADE THREATENING COMMENTS TOWARD THE STAFF. THEY SAY HE WENT BACK TO THAT BUSINESS AND STABBED THE BOUNCER IN THE NECK. WE DON\u2019T KNOW THE BOUNCER\u2019S CONDITION. A WOMAN IS CHARGED WITH AGGRAVATED ASSAULT AFTER INVESTIGATORS SAY SHE BEAT AND THREATENED CHILDREN WITH A BELT AND GUNS. IN HARRISBURG, 31 YEAR OLD MARIA ROCHE IS CHARGED WITH AGGRAVATED ASSAULT AND ENDANGERING THE WELFARE OF CHILDREN, ACCORDING TO COURT DOCUMENTS. A WITNESS SAYS ROCHE TRIED TO SHOOT ONE OF THE CHILDREN BUT MISSED AND HIT THE WALL. 41 YEAR OLD WILLIAM WITHERSPOON, ALSO OF HARRISBURG, IS CHARGED AS WELL BECAUSE POLICE SAY HE WATCHED AS ROCHE HIT THE CHILDREN WITH A BELT. AN UPDATE ON A DOMESTIC SITUATION IN SILVER SPRING TOWNSHIP CUMBERLAND COUNTY. POLICE SAY THIS WAS A MURDER SUICIDE. POLICE SAY 69 YEAR OLD SCOTT WHITCOMB SHOT ROBIN WHITCOMB. SHE WAS 63, IN THE HEAD AND THEN SHOT HIMSELF AT A HOME ON SORBIE LANE. THIS WAS AROUND 10:00 SATURDAY MORNING. ALMOST 508 HERE ON OUR TUESDAY MORNING. AND TAKING A LOOK BEHIND US HERE WE SEE THE LANCASTER SKY CAM. HOW\u2019S IT SHAPING UP TODAY? TODAY WE GET MORE SUN AND WE SHOULD BE UP NEAR 50 DEGREES. NOT A BAD DAY. A LITTLE BIT BELOW AVERAGE. YOU CAN SEE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING FROM OHIO INTO WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA RIGHT NOW. CLOCKWISE FLOW AROUND THAT HIGH BRINGING IN NORTHERLY NORTHWESTERLY WINDS. THAT\u2019S ALSO BRINGING IN A LITTLE BIT OF CLOUD COVER RIGHT THROUGH OUR EASTERN COUNTIES, PARTS OF NORTHERN DAUPHIN COUNTY, LEBANON COUNTY, LANCASTER COUNTY, UNDER A DECK OF CLOUDS. BUT THEY SHOULD BE THINNING OUT SHORTLY. TEMPERATURE CHECK 35 IN LEBANON. WE HAVE 30 IN CHAMBERSBURG, 32 FOR CARLISLE, EVEN 28 IN LEWISTOWN, WHERE IT\u2019S BEEN CLEAR. BUT CHECK OUT THE WIND SPEED TODAY. NOT AS WINDY AS YESTERDAY. YESTERDAY IT WAS PRETTY GUSTY. PUT A CHILL IN THE AIR FOR SURE. TODAY WE WILL SEE WIND SPEEDS AT ABOUT 5 TO 10MPH, GENERALLY OUT OF THE NORTH NORTHWEST. HERE\u2019S A LOOK AT OUR WEATHER PLANNER FOR YOU. CLEARING SKIES THIS MORNING, ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN COUNTIES. OTHERWISE MOSTLY SUNNY. NOT AS WINDY THIS AFTERNOON WITH A HIGH NEAR 50. CLOUDS GRADUALLY INCREASE THIS EVENING. WE\u2019LL SEE. PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES TONIGHT AND MORE CLOUDS TOMORROW. BUT EVEN WITH THE CLOUDS TOMORROW, IT\u2019S GOING TO BE MILDER. WE\u2019LL TAKE A LOOK AT THE WARMING TREND IN MY TEN DAY FORECAST. OKAY. THANKS, CHRISTINE. IN HARRISBURG, THE RED CROSS IS HELPING ONE PERSON AFTER A ROWHOME FIRE. THIS IS A PICTURE YOU SEE ON THE TOP THERE. THOSE ARE FIREFIGHTERS ON TOP OF THE ROOF. WE ALSO HAVE VIDEO SHOWING THE RESPONSE TO THIS FIRE. IT WAS ALONG NORTH 14TH STREET NEAR STATE STREET. 911. DISPATCHERS SAY THE CALL CAME IN JUST AFTER 7:00 LAST NIGHT IN LANCASTER COUNTY. A FIRE FORCED THE EVACUATION OF A VETERINARY CLINIC. YOU CAN SHOW YOU SOME VIDEO TAKEN FROM THE SCENE ALONG LITITZ PIKE IN MANHEIM TOWNSHIP. 911 DISPATCHERS TELL US THAT THE FIRE STARTED AROUND 630 LAST EVENING AT THE NETTLE HILL VETERINARY CLINIC. HERE\u2019S THAT VIDEO WE WERE MENTIONING. FIREFIGHTERS DID SAY THEY HAD IT UNDER CONTROL IN JUST ABOUT 15 MINUTES, AND THE CLINIC SAID THAT ALL CLIENTS, EMPLOYEES, PATIENTS AND PET RESORT BOARDERS ARE SAFE AND ACCOUNTED FOR. A TEENAGER IN CUSTODY AFTER POLICE SAY HE LED THEM ON A HIGH-SPEED CHASE IN LANCASTER COUNTY THAT ENDED IN A CRASH. POLICE SAY THEY STARTED SUNDAY EVENING ALONG ROUTE 741. THAT\u2019S STRASBURG ROAD IN PARADISE TOWNSHIP. POLICE SAY THEY CLOCKED THE CAR GOING MORE THAN 120MPH. THE CAR ENDED UP CRASHING INTO A TRACTOR TRAILER THAT THEN HIT A DIFFERENT CAR. ALL THREE OF THOSE VEHICLES CAUGHT FIRE. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS, IS EVERYBODY OKAY? AS SOON AS THE IMPACT HIT, THERE WERE INJURIES, BUT EVERYONE SURVIVED AND EVERYONE WAS EXTREMELY LUCKY. IT WAS SCARY. I\u2019VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT. POLICE SAY THE CAR, DRIVEN BY 19 YEAR OLD JESUS JUAREZ JUAREZ AND HIS 15 YEAR OLD BROTHER, WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. JUAREZ IS CHARGED WITH MULTIPLE CRIMES, INCLUDING AGGRAVATED ASSAULT BY VEHICLE.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
