State police say the 53-year-old Philadelphia man was spotted in Wyomissing on Thursday evening. They say he had “a rifle with a scope across his chest” and was shot and killed by officers.

Those groups argued that typically there's a 30-day waiting period before new rules are implemented. U.S. District Court Judge James Wesley Hendrix agreed.

A woman pulled alive from the rubble of a Pennsylvania chocolate factory after an explosion that killed seven co-workers says her arm caught fire as flames engulfed the ruined building — and then she fell through the floor into a vat of liquid chocolate. Patricia Borges (BOHR'-hez) recounted her terrifying brush with death and her miraculous survival to The Associated Press. Borges says she and others had complained about a gas odor about 30 minutes before the factory blew up. She is angry the factory didn’t immediately evacuate its workers. She broke her collarbone and both heels and faces a long recovery.
The March 24 blast at R.M. Palmer killed seven of Borges’s co-workers and injured 10. Federal, state and local investigations are underway.
