Williamsport man allegedly used 'whippets' before driving

Williamsport, Pa. — A Williamsport man drove the wrong way on a one-way street while high on nitrous oxide, police say. Williamsport Officer Andrew Stevens was on patrol when he noticed a Volkswagen Jetta stopped at the intersection of Penn and East Third streets around 9:30 p.m. The car was stopped for an unusually long time and when it moved forward, Stevens watched as the driver continued on East Third Street and through the intersection with Mulberry Street that was clearly marked "Do Not Enter." Stevens stopped the driver, identified as 27-year-old Jonathan David Mueller, as he reportedly drove down the wrong way on the one-way street. Mueller was sweating profusely and had a blank stare on his face, Stevens said. There were allegedly two tanks on the passenger side floor of nitrous oxide containers, known as whippets. Nitrous oxide is "commonly abused for the mind altering affects it carries when it is inhaled," Stevens noted. Mueller's appeared slow and sluggish, so Stevens asked him to perform field sobriety testing, charges say. Police said Mueller performed poorly on the tests and was taken into custody. A search of the vehicle turned up several dozen small, clear plastic nitrous oxide canister

Gas Well Boom Puts Flatbed Hauling Back to Work in North Central PA

Sit in a diner off US-220 near Williamsport and you’ll probably hear it from the next booth: the rigs are busy again. After a couple of slow years, drilling crews are back on pads across Lycoming and Bradford counties. Each pad needs steel, mats and machinery hauled up roads mostly built for milk trucks and school buses. Almost all of it rides on open decks, which is why flatbed hauling services in the region are booked out again. The activity shows up in the numbers: as Penn Business Report notes, citing the Independent Fiscal Office , Pennsylvania drilled 446 new wells in 2025, up 44.3% and the first annual increase since 2022, with Lycoming and Bradford among the five counties that produced 70% of the state’s gas. More wells mean more freight, and most of it won’t fit in a box. Casing pipe comes in long joints, often 40 feet or more. Rig mats are big and awkward. Pump skids and wellhead parts get lifted on and off with a crane or a large loader. What the roads are like up there Getting to a well pad in Bradford County is rarely a straight shot. You can run US-6 into
