Considering the swirling vortex of the Allentown School District’s massive budget shortfall, Thursday night’s board of directors meeting raised more questions about its future than it answered.

The alleged attacker of an Easton man who died two weeks after being punched in the head last Christmas Eve is headed to trial.

A man who stole a big-screen TV, as well as $7. 19 in change and various food items from a home, was identified by police by a gray hat he was trying to hide, officials said.

A contentious area businessman bluntly warned Easton officials that an outdoor sign company is bullying them into an agreement with tactics he himself regularly uses to get his way.
