David Schaef update: (12/05/23)

I spoke with David yesterday. He had just arrived at the Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Erie.

There are still a couple of issues to resolve, and David is optimistic that Encompass has the skills. We didn't speak much of medicine and health, most of the conversation was about our subscribers and the Community News newspaper.

I was much encouraged by the tone of his voice and the idea he was interested in talking about Community News. So, he’s at that, “I want to get back to work” stage of healing.

He talked about his subscribers and a letter he is composing for them. He talked about how to proceed with the newspaper when he gets home.

He said he hopes to be home in 2 weeks.


Thank You all for your Love and Prayers and Well Wishes.

Written by David Schaef

A DUI check point was held earlier this month in Linesville borough leading borough councilman Randy Uplinger to object when council met in August session.

Following the police report for July that indicated there were 106 calls answered by the police department and 1,317 miles put on the patrol car, Uplinger first asked if local police could ask that DUI check points not take place in town? He said it was very inconvenient to have in the borough.

The DUI check point was set up on East Erie Street at the school exit driveway.

He suggested the checks are not constitutional just because the Supreme Court says it is.
