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

Lycoming commissioners approve new DA's salary

Williamsport, Pa. — Lycoming County commissioners approved the salaries of the new district attorney and first assistant district attorney this morning. Martin Wade, previously First Assistant District Attorney under District Attorney Tom Marino, was officially sworn in Friday morning, Nov. 6 following Marino's resignation last week. Commissioner Mark Mussina reminded folks that the DA position will be on the ballot next November, and that Wade is effectively the "interim" DA until then. Under Pennsylvania law, the first assistant automatically assumes the district attorney’s office when the elected district attorney resigns mid-term. Wade will serve the remainder of Marino’s term, which ends in November 2027. Commissioners unanimously voted to pass Wade's annual salary of $233,916 and newly-appointed First ADA Phoebe Yates' annual salary of $107,720. Each is listed to have gone into effect on Nov. 8. Yates — the first woman to hold First ADA position in Lycoming County — began working as a Lycoming ADA in January 2023, and held a similar position in the York County District Attorney's Office for nearly seven years before moving into the Lycoming office. She was sworn into her new position alongside Wade last Friday. This position is appointed, not elected, and thus will
