Earlier this week, a man was supposedly about to jump from the Veterans Memorial Bridge (near the Wrightsville end) but was talked down by a pedestrian. Several departments responded.
And this is why you shouldn’t leave those hubcaps standing around. They tend to sprout.
Stop in and fill up.

Columbia artist Joanna Spicer just painted this mural inside the soon-to-be “Coffee & Cream” building at Front & Walnut. Two years ago, she painted a mural and the emblems of the United States armed forces at the Locust Street Park storage building. Columbia Spy reported on that project HERE.

Columbia school board president abruptly resigns 5 hours before meeting, no reason given
School Board President Keith Combs’s resignation letter
The Columbia Borough school board president abruptly resigned Thursday in an email sent to board members and administrators about five hours before a school board meeting the same day.
Keith Combs, who’s served on the school board off-and-on since 2011, sent an email around 1 p.m. with a brief letter stating he was resigning, effective Thursday, superintendent Tom Strickler told LNP.
Combs didn’t give any reason for his decision, but Strickler told LNP he assumes it was work-related.

DA clears Columbia of second Sunshine Act violation complaint
Heather Zink’s complaint was the second such filing with the district attorney’s office against Columbia in seven months. The first complaint, which was settled just over a month after the alleged violation occurred in November, led to a stern letter from the district attorney’s office.
While the office declined to investigate the first complaint because it could not prove there was an intent to violate the act, it said a subsequent inquiry would result in an investigation.
At points, the warning letter sent to Columbia in December was word-for-word what the district attorney’s office wrote to the Manheim Township School Board in 2016 for holding 11 closed-door meetings with little to no explanation for them.
