\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tINFORMATION THAT LEADS TO HIM. IT IS 6:00, AND WE\u2019RE TAKING A LIVE LOOK FROM OUR HERSHEY SKY CAM AS WE SAY. GOOD MORNING TO DAUPHIN COUNTY ON THIS THURSDAY. HI, EVERYBODY. I\u2019M MATT BARCARO. I\u2019M KATELYN SMITH. METEOROLOGIST MIKE SUSKO SAID TODAY WAS GOING TO BE BREEZY, AND WE\u2019RE SEEING THOSE FLAGS. YEAH, THEY\u2019RE STARTING TO GET A LITTLE BIT OF A WORKOUT HERE AS WE GO INTO THE MORNING, GUYS. AND THAT\u2019S JUST GOING TO CONTINUE AS WE GO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HERE. SO WE WILL BE WATCHING THAT AS WE GO THROUGH THE REST OF THE DAY TODAY. BUT GOOD NEWS IS THOUGH, THE WINDS SHOULD CALM DOWN TONIGHT. AND AS WE HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND, YOU CAN EXPECT IT TO BE DRY. STILL COOL. AND THEN MORE CLOUDS AS WE HEAD INTO SUNDAY. NOW, AS WE TAKE A LOOK HERE FOR NEXT WEEK, IT DOES BECOME A LITTLE MORE UNSETTLED. THERE\u2019S MORE CHANCES FOR RAIN, ESPECIALLY IN THE MIDDLE PART OF THE WEEK HERE. NOW AS WE LOOK AT CARLISLE THIS MORNING, IT\u2019S QUIET OUT THERE. AND CURRENT TEMPERATURES IN CUMBERLAND COUNTY, 48 DEGREES 51 IN HARRISBURG, LANCASTER AND LEBANON, YOU\u2019RE AT 45 AND 49. IN YORK, 46 UP IN LEWISTOWN. AS YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR. STORM TRACK LIVE RADAR SHOWING A FEW SPRINKLES AS POSSIBLE AS SOME ENERGY IS MOVING THROUGH THE AREA AS WE GO THROUGH THE MORNING AND AFTERNOON. SO AS YOU LOOK AT YOUR 12 HOUR FORECAST, WE\u2019LL HIT A HIGH OF 58 DEGREES TODAY. BUT I DO EXPECT THERE TO BE PERIODS WHERE WE HAVE SOME MORE CLOUDS THAN SUNSHINE. BUT OVERALL, NOT TOO BAD OF A DAY HERE. JACOB. WE WILL BE SEEING GUSTS ANYWHERE FROM 20 TO 25MPH. BREEZY AND COOL. PERFECT FALL FEELS AS I\u2019VE BEEN SAYING ALL MORNING. GRAB THAT JACKET AS YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR TODAY, YOU\u2019RE PROBABLY GOING TO NEED IT. ALL RIGHT, MIKE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. LET\u2019S TAKE A LOOK AT THE ROADWAYS THIS MORNING AS YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR. IT IS ALL IN THE GREEN, WHICH IS ALL SOME GOOD NEWS FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE HEADING OUT THE DOOR TODAY FOR SCHOOL OR FOR WORK. ONE ACCIDENT FOR YOU TO BE WORRIED ABOUT ON A ROADWAY THIS MORNING IN LANCASTER COUNTY. THAT\u2019S PA 222 SOUTHBOUND JUST AFTER THE PA 272 OREGON PIKE. HUNSAKER ROUGEAU. WE\u2019VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT IT ALL MORNING. JUST SOME ORANGE AND YELLOW AROUND THAT PARTICULAR SPOT. SO A LITTLE BIT OF A SLOWDOWN FOR YOU TO BE AWARE OF AS YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR, JUMPING OVER TOWARDS THE CAPITAL BELTWAY IN HARRISBURG AGAIN, ALL GREEN THIS MORNING, WHICH IS ALL GOOD NEWS AS YOU\u2019RE HEADING INTO THE CAPITAL CITY. TAKING A LOOK AT SOME OF OUR SKY CAMS, THIS IS THE SOUTH BRIDGE ON 83. AGAIN, GOOD NEWS. WE HAVEN\u2019T SEEN MUCH OF ANYTHING THIS MORNING. JUST A LOT OF LIGHTS OUT ON THE ROADWAYS AS MOST PEOPLE ARE HEADING OUT THE DOOR TODAY. AND IN LANCASTER COUNTY, PA 283 AND ROUTE 30. ALL GOOD NEWS AS WELL. NOTHING TOO MUCH FOR YOU TO WORRY ABOUT. WE\u2019LL HAVE ANOTHER UPDATE IN JUST A LITTLE BIT. WELL, A NEW AMBULANCE STATION IS NOW OPEN IN LANCASTER COUNTY, AND THIS TIME IT\u2019S INSIDE OF A COLLEGE. IT\u2019S INSIDE FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL COLLEGE IN LANCASTER. AND THAT\u2019S WHERE NEWS EIGHT\u2019S GABRIELLE THOMAS IS AS WELL. TO TALK ABOUT WHY THE STATION IS THERE AND WHO\u2019S STAFFING IT. GOOD MORNING. GABRIELLE. GOOD MORNING, MATT AND CAITLIN. I\u2019M STANDING IN THE NEW AMBULANCE LOCATION HERE ON FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL COLLEGE CAMPUS. THIS IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN LANCASTER EMS AND THE COLLEGE. AND THIS STATION IS ALREADY IMPROVING RESPONSE TIMES. IT ALSO GIVES STUDENTS AN OPPORTUNITY WHO WOULD LIKE TO BE EMTS TO GET HANDS ON EXPERIENCE. NOW, WE DID PROMISE YOU THAT YOU WOULD SPEAK TO A FORMER STUDENT WHO IS NOW AN EMT, BUT HE HAD TO RUSH OUT FOR A MEDICAL EMERGENCY. NOW I HAVE CAPTAIN PARRISH JOINING ME THIS MORNING. HE IS WITH LANCASTER EMS. CAPTAIN PARRISH. HOW MANY PERSONNEL WILL BE SERVING OUTSIDE OF THIS STATION? THIS STATION WILL BE STAFFED 24 HOURS A DAY, STARTING WITH A TWO PERSON CREW IN THE MORNING. TWO PERSON CREW OVER OVERNIGHT AND HOPING TO BE ABLE TO EXPAND THAT EVENTUALLY WITH THE VOLUNTEERS FROM THE COLLEGE. AND WHAT MESSAGE DO YOU HAVE FOR PARENTS AND STUDENTS TO JUST REASSURE THEM THAT YOU GUYS ARE HERE, READY TO SERVE AND HELP THEM WHENEVER THEY MAY NEED IT? WE\u2019RE ALWAYS READY TO SERVE, AND WE\u2019RE ALWAYS READY TO SERVE THE SCHOOL AS WELL AS THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. SO IT\u2019S GOING TO INCREASE THE RESPONSE TIMES FASTER, CARE, FASTER TRANSPORT TIMES. AND THAT\u2019S WHAT WE\u2019RE HERE TO DO. NOW, WE KNOW JOHN DID RUSH OUT AND SINCE HE IS NOT HERE, I DO WANT YOU TO SHARE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT JOHN AND HIS EXPERIENCE WITH LANCASTER EMS. HOW DOES IT MAKE YOU FEEL TO KNOW THAT YOU GUYS HAVE THIS PARTNERSHIP WITH THEM? AND NOW HE\u2019S WORKING FOR LANCASTER EMS? WELL, THAT\u2019S SUPER EXCITING BECAUSE WE GIVE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR STUDENTS TO GET REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE AND THEN TRANSFER THAT EXPERIENCE INTO THE WORKPLACE HERE AT LANCASTER EMS. CAPTAIN PARRISH, THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. WELL, THEY WILL HAVE A RIBBON CUTTING LATER THIS AFTERNOON. I\u2019LL HAVE ALL THOSE DETAILS ON MY FACEBOOK REPORTING LIVE HERE IN LANCASTER COUNTY. I\u2019M GABRIEL THOMAS WGAL NEWS EIGHT. I GUESS IT SHOWS HOW GREAT THE NEED IS. YOU KNOW, THEY\u2019RE ALREADY RESPONDING TO SOMETHING RIGHT NOW. ALWAYS AT THE READY. ALL RIGHT. THANKS, GABRIEL. IT\u2019S A BUSY, BUSY INTERSECTION IN LANCASTER COUNTY. A SHORTAGE OF CROSSING GUARDS AT A BUSY INTERSECTION IS RAISING CONCERNS FROM A PARENT WHOSE CHILD WALKS THAT ROUTE EVERY DAY. THE PARENT SAYS HIS CHILD USED TO WALK TO MIDDLE SCHOOL IN THE EFFORT AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT EVERY DAY. BUT NOW HE DRIVES HIM BECAUSE OF THE CONCERNS WITH THAT INTERSECTION AT SOUTH ACADEMY AND HAMMOND AVENUE. I TOOK HIM TO SCHOOL AND I NOTICED THERE WAS NO GUARD IN FRONT OF THE ENTRANCE. WELL, THE CROSSING GUARD, A CROSSING GUARD THAT WAS THERE WAS HURT AFTER A CAR HIT THEM AT THAT SAME INTERSECTION. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, THE BOROUGH EMPLOYS CROSSING GUARDS AND THE EFFORT OF POLICE DEPARTMENT SAYS THEY DON\u2019T HAVE ANYONE APPLYING TO BE ONE RIGHT NOW. MILLERSVILLE UNIVERSITY STUDENT IS BEING REMEMBERED AS AN EXCEPTIONAL STUDENT, A DEDICATED TEAMMATE AND A FRIEND. SIDNEY BARNES DIED THIS WEEK AFTER BEING HIT BY A CAR. HER GOLF COACH SAYS SHE WAS A TALENTED MEMBER OF THE TEAM, EVEN HITTING THE FIRST HOLE IN ONE IN PROGRAM HISTORY, WHICH IS THE VIDEO THAT YOU ARE SEEING HERE. SHE WAS A WOMEN\u2019S GOLF COACHES ASSOCIATION ALL-AMERICAN SCHOLAR AND A PENNSYLVANIA STATE ATHLETIC CONFERENCE SCHOLAR ATHLETE. BUT I THINK THAT BOTH TEAMS WILL. RISE UP AND BE STRONGER FROM THIS. OKAY. SHE WOULDN\u2019T HAVE WANTED IT ANY OTHER WAY. ACCORDING TO THE DAUPHIN COUNTY CORONER\u2019S OFFICE, BARNES DIED FROM TRAUMATIC INJURIES AFTER SHE WAS HIT. HER ORGANS WERE DONATED. THE LANCASTER COUNTY HUMAN TRAFFICKING TASK FORCE ROLLING OUT NEW BILLBOARDS TO RECOGNIZE ITS WORK IN THE COUNTY. IT SAYS IT\u2019S MADE 160 ARRESTS SINCE IT STARTED IN 2022. THE DA SAYS THE COUNTY STARTED TO RECOGNIZE A NEED FOR A FORCE TO ADDRESS HUMAN TRAFFICKING YEARS BEFORE THAT. OUR MISSION IS TO ARREST AND PROSECUTE, SUCCESSFULLY PROSECUTE HUMAN TRAFFICKERS HERE IN LANCASTER COUNTY, BUT THEN ALSO TO IDENTIFY THE VICTIMS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING AND OFFER THEM A BROAD ARRAY OF SERVICES SO THAT THEY CAN GET BACK TO BEING A PRODUCTIVE CITIZEN. WELL, THE TASK FORCE IS MADE UP OF ABOUT A DOZEN POLICE DEPARTMENTS IN LANCASTER COUNTY. IT SAYS IT\u2019S IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO START CONVERSATIONS AT HOME WITH KIDS ABOUT WHAT HUMAN TRAFFICKING CAN LOOK LIKE. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 25 YEARS SINCE A 12 YEAR OLD BOY DISAPPEARED IN JONESTOWN, IN LEBANON COUNTY, AND NOW STATE POLICE ARE ONCE AGAIN ASKING FOR YOUR HELP TO FIND HIM. LET\u2019S GIVE YOU A PHOTO ON THE LEFT OF ERIC PYLES. WHAT HE LOOKED LIKE AROUND THE TIME HE WENT MISSING. AND ON THE RIGHT IS WHAT STATE POLICE SAY HE WOULD LOOK LIKE TODAY. THEY SAY HE WAS LAST SEEN DECEMBER 12TH OF 2000 BY THE SECRETARY FROM THE JONESTOWN BIBLE CHURCH, WHICH WAS NEAR HIS HOME ON AWOL ROAD IN JONESTOWN. A $5,000 REWARD IS NOW BEING OFFERED FOR INFORMATION THAT SOLVES THIS CASE. THIS MORNING WE ARE HEARING FROM STATE LEADERS AND THOSE ADVOCATING FOR AI DATA CENTERS ABOUT A NEW BILL IN THE STATE CAPITOL, KNOWN AS THE DATA CENTER ACT. THE BILL WOULD PLACE REGULATIONS ON DATA CENTERS THAT WOULD INCLUDE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, POWER USAGE SCHEDULES, RULES AND EMERGENCY SITUATIONS. EVEN COSTS ON POWER CUSTOMERS. NOW, THOSE WITH THE DATA CENTER COALITION SAY THAT THESE CENTERS ARE ESSENTIAL FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH. AND THEY FEAR, THOUGH, THAT REGULATIONS WOULD FORCE THESE BUSINESSES AWAY. WE\u2019VE GOT TO FIND A WAY TO MEET OUR ENERGY NEEDS AND TO HAVE REALISTIC PROJECTIONS, BE ABLE TO EXPECT, ANTICIPATE HOW MUCH ENERGY WE NEED AND FIND A WAY TO GENERATE IT. WE TALK ABOUT THE KIND OF INVESTMENT THAT DATA CENTERS BRING. IT\u2019S IT\u2019S IT\u2019S A CHALLENGE. THERE\u2019S NO QUESTION ABOUT IT. BUT WITH GOOD PLANNING, WE CAN MEET THIS CHALLENGE. WELL, THE STATE\u2019S PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION AND THE DATA CENTER COALITION SAY THAT STUDIES ON POWER LOAD MANAGEMENT ARE NEEDED FOR THESE REGULATIONS. THE HOUSE ENERGY COMMITTEE SAYS IT EXPECTS THAT THERE WILL BE SOME CHANGES TO THE CURRENT BILL AFTER YESTERDAY\u2019S PANEL. A SCAM ALERT FROM THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES NOW IT SAYS SNAP CLIENTS ARE GETTING CALLS SAYING THEIR BENEFITS ARE ON HOLD UNTIL THEY CAN VERIFY THEIR ELIGIBILITY. IT SAYS THE SCAMMERS ARE ASKING CLIENTS FOR THEIR PIN. THE DEPARTMENT SAYS IT WILL NEVER ASK FOR PERSONAL INFORMATION IN AN UNSOLICITED TEXT MESSAGE, EMAIL OR PHONE CALL. SO IF YOU DO GET ANY OF THESE SUSPICIOUS TEXTS, CALLS, EMAILS, YOU SHOULD CONTACT THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES AND YOU CAN FIND THE SPECIFIC NUMBERS THAT THOSE SCAM CALLS ARE COMIN\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
