10 Years Ago

Herald of Dec. 29, 2011

Several police agencies responded to a burglary in progress. A caller reported a suspicious vehicle in a neighbor’s driveway, and police recognized the vehicle as matching the description of a vehicle associated with several suspected break-ins in the Fair Valley Road and Auction Road areas of Martinsburg. Police monitored the vehicle and watched it returning to the Ritchey’s Dairy parking lot and arrested the driver. After his arrest it was discovered that the driver had left his job to break into his supervisor’s house and stole a “substantial amount” of money.

The Kitty Hawk restaurant at the Altoona-Blair County Airport cut hours to weekends only. The downturn in the economy affected the volume of business and was given as the reason for the change in hours. The airport authority was negotiating with other potential operators.
