Blair County Inmate's Lawsuit Over Shower Beating Survives Magistrate's Recommendation

A federal magistrate judge has recommended allowing one claim in former Blair County Prison inmate Bronson L. Brown’s lawsuit to proceed, finding factual disputes that prevent an early dismissal. Brown, 42, of Altoona, alleges a corrections officer slammed his head into a shower door, walls and floor in December 2022. He is seeking more than $1 million in damages and says the incident caused facial swelling, a gash on his ear and a severe shoulder injury.

Northern Bedford knocks off Meyersdale in D5-1A football title game

WINDBER — A key injury, a snow squall, and turnovers proved too much for Meyersdale to overcome, falling to Northern Bedford County 21-0 in the District 5 Class 1A football championship game, Friday, Nov. 13, in Windber. For Meyersdale head coach Ryan Donaldson’s Red Raiders, who were held to under 100 yards of offense, this is one that will hurt for a while. “It stings right now, especially for the kids,” said Donaldson. "They have been working hard through the 12 weeks of the season. I am proud of them for getting here, but we fell short tonight. First half, it’s a 0-0 ball game. It was a dog fight, and in the second half, things didn’t go our way, and it got out of hand quickly. Losing quarterback Spencer Whitfield was key. One of our guys we relied on for both sides of the ball, but we still had a game to play with the guys that were in there, but they left it out on the field.” Bringing home a championship North Star tops Berlin for 1st District 5 football title since 2011 Title game preview Meyersdale bids for 2nd straight District 5-1A football championship An 18-play drive

DOC NYC 2026 Review: There’s Strong Shelf Life in an Old Way of Life in Brian Becker’s Felicitous “Mall Country”

It’s apparent early on in “Mall Country” that Leo Karruli didn’t know what exactly he was buying when he won an auction to purchase the Johnstown Galleria in a small Western Pennsylvania. Scouring the internet for real estate investments after becoming a successful restauranteur in Florida, achieving the American dream when he worked his way up from being a dishwasher from Albania to ultimately having an Italian place of his own, he couldn’t pass up the opportunity to buy a fully functional shopping center for just $1.4 million, though as his wife Irene notes, there wasn’t much wiggle room to back out when he made an impulsive bid, only to learn there were no other interested buyers.
