"Red means stop!" Appoint Hellboy as Borough Traffic Control Officer

Wrightsville Man Busted in Underage Sex Sting | WPMT FOX43

Three men were arrested after setting up what they thought were sexual trysts with underage girls. The Office of Attorney General's Child Predator Unit busted the suspects when they showed up to meet their online chat partners for sex. Only, instead of the 13- and 14-year-old girls they thought they were meeting, they came face-to-face with the law.

Prestige of new medal for drone pilots rankles some, including PA Senator

Count US Senator Pat Toomey (R-Pa) among those taking umbrage with the status of a new medal created by the Pentagon for drone operators. The Distinguished Warfare Medal will be awarded to pilots of unmanned aircraft, cyber war experts or others who are directly involved in combat operations but who are not physically present in the combat zone and facing the same physical risks of warfare. The Pentagon is adding prestige to the medal by placing it above some traditional combat valor medals in the military's "order of precedence."
