COLUMBIA seams like every day someone from town makes bad news.
Most of them are not columbia people or addresses!!!
lots are.
They are Columbia addresses you knucklehead
Over the years Columbia did infact anx sections into the borough.
This crime and arrest occurred in Manheim Township, Lancaster County. Since this incident did not happen in Columbia Borough, I’m puzzled as to why this is posted. I thought that any crime within Columbia Borough was reported on Columbia Spy.
As it stands, it cannot be determined that this person actually lives in Columbia Borough. He could be from West Hempfield, Donegal or even Manor Township all of which have Columbia mailing addresses.
With all due respect to Columbia Spy, this casts a negative light on Columbia and its citizens. The great majority of citizens in Columbia Borough are law abiding people who take pride in this community.
This man has multiple pages of offenses. Several of the docket sheets list his address as Columbia.
I would think that residents here would be interested in knowing that there's a "local" that might be up to "no good".
If he is living in or that close to this borough, that may be concerning to some residents.
Not educating oneself on their surroundings can lead to problems.
Perhaps you would rather place yourself in jeopardy rather than shed a bad light on Columbia.
