Apparently you never had to experience car trouble at the holidays and make a choice between buying kids gifts or fixing the car. Yes, some of us are really that poor. A flat tire can be a lot of money for some people.

I had to miss my son's holiday program that day because of this. 2 of my tires were slashed. Have this happen to you and let's see how it affects your life. There is so much ignorance in this world. I didn't do anything to anybody to have that happen to me. And calling us bawl babies...really? Who are you? What makes you so special? I've been here for over a decade, minding my own business and raising my family. We may not have much, but it was earned. Uneducated people such as yourself should not comment on things of this matter unless you know the whole story. Am I crying about it? No, I'm not. It was meant to happen for a reason, I moved on. Yes I can't get tires until next week, but that doesn't stop my family and I from living. Grow up and may karma be your enemy when something like this happens to you. Then maybe you'll be a bawl baby and expect the cops to sit outside your house and protect what you worked hard for.

Bawl Babies???
Your totally ridiculous by making that statement!
We need more police, Wagon Works should have had cameras. I experienced two punctured tires and a kicked in door not long ago. It was a HATE CRIME, your comment only shows how narrow minded and uncaring you are.
God Bless you.
To the victims, keep your chin up, eyes open and anything suspicious call the Police.
Merry Christmas

No one seriously expects anything will be done. Maybe since so many were involved the chances of follow up are better. When an individual has something stolen basically they have to accept it as the norm. I provided the name and location of a witness to a theft and the officer said they would contact the individual. I checked with that person at a later date and they were never contacted. I'd prefer being told that they will not follow up rather than being lied to and told they will.

Please everyone, don't let one knucklehead ruin all of your holidays. He/She had no business saying bawl baby or anything. None of you had even spoken yet. He/she obviously just needs attention. I am very sorry for the vandalism you have received and wish I could help with getting you new tires. I think it would also be great if someone stepped up and helped with some leads on the people that did this.

It's a shame how the suburb is a bad place to live now. I had two tires slashed missing two days from work....
I'm a single person working hard to keep my place. And Its a shame I pay all this money to have my car slashed. It has been peoples taken license plates of cars Mirrors as been stolen from people's cars. It's sad all I can do is cry and I just read up top that nothing is being done. Wagon Works is a horrible place to live I won't recommend nobody to live here all they want is their money and they care less what happen to you.

Columbia's decision to ban former employee from its property may be 'unconstitutional' [Lancaster Watchdog]

By Columbia Spy -

Chris Vera [Columbia Spy file photo] The following information is excerpted from a December 6, 2025 LNP Watchdog article by LNP | LancasterOnline reporter Jade Campos. Still reeling from an abrupt firing from his role as head of the Columbia Market House in March, Chris Vera was surprised to get a letter in the mail from a Columbia Borough attorney two weeks later telling him he was banned indefinitely from borough property. The letter gave no reason for the ban. Nine months later, Vera, who has served as president of the Columbia Historic Preservation Society for more than a decade and has helped with the borough’s comprehensive plan, is still banned from borough property. He believes the ban includes borough parks, which is part of the reason he moved his annual Albatwitch Day festival, which celebrates the myth of a local cryptid, to Wrightsville. Vera said he’s not sure why the borough went to such lengths to keep him away from public spaces given his termination from the borough s...

NATHAN WILLISON | LNP Staff Writer An East Donegal Township man is facing criminal charges after police say he struck a 13-year-old with his truck and fled the scene last month.  Derek Scott Mohr, 28, is charged with causing an accident involving death or injury without a license, failing to stop to render aid, driving at an unsafe speed and related charges.  Mohr had been driving a 2013 Chevrolet Silverado through Chestnut Street in Columbia around 8 p.m. March 20 when he struck a 13-year-old boy riding a motorized scooter and continued driving, according to charging documents filed by police.  When police arrived, they found the boy with a broken leg and a cut to his forehead. His scooter was lying nearby, its handlebars completely snapped off.  Another teenager who witnessed what happened described the truck to police and said that the driver made no attempt to stop after striking the boy. Surveillance footage collected from the area shows the truck striking the b...

Mayor Lutz must accept responsibility

By Columbia Spy -

  GUEST COMMENTARY [Name withheld by request out of fear of retaliation] For two decades, Leo Lutz has occupied the mayor's office in Columbia, and his supporters are quick to credit him with every positive development in our borough, but leadership is a two-way street. If Mayor Lutz is going to accept praise for Columbia's successes, many of which, frankly, he had little direct involvement in, then he must also be held accountable for our failures. The facts paint a troubling picture. Despite the mayor's repeated assurances that our streets are safe, we've witnessed a disturbing rise in assaults, shootings, and vandalism. His promises have fallen by the wayside: the foot patrol we were promised never materialized, nor did the bike patrol that was supposed to increase our sense of security. Fiscally, the situation is equally dire. Taxes have increased at least twice during Mayor Lutz's tenure, yet the borough now finds itself millions of dollars in debt. This isn...
