(Click/tap on photos to see larger, sharper images.) 

Rescue personnel pulled a man from the Susquehanna River this morning after he went for a swim in the cold water, as Columbia Spy reported HERE.

*****************

Members of the Lancaster County Bird Club, who were at the Columbia Crossing building in Columbia River Park for an activity, first spotted the man in the water and called 911.

*****************

The Veterans Memorial (Route 462) Bridge looks to be in bad shape. Will it make it to the rehabilitation project slated to start in 2027? Will the project even happen?

*****************

These keys were hanging from a tree branch in Rotary Park and were subsequently turned in to Columbia Borough Police.
