So far around Philly City Hall I’ve seen everything the city told people not to do: pole climbing, drone flying, fireworks everywhere. Maybe try reverse psychology next time? #SuperBowlLIX #EaglesWin


We have our first pole climber on N Broad


The crowd on N Broad Street right now. No grease on this pole. #SuperBowlLIX #philly

Tom Llamas just said “Delco County” on @NBCNews


I'm looking to speak with committed Democrats in PA for a story in the @nytimes about last night's debate. Please send leads!


Delaware County District Attorney @da_delco says it could take a long time to sort through the ruins the house in East Lansdowne, PA for clues to what happened Wednesday afternoon. "I can’t even begin to tell you an estimate." nytimes.com/2024/02/07/us/…

The Delaware River is at moderate flood stage in Philly after a week of heavy rains. It’s almost high tide and the waters are lapping at the edge of Graffiti Pier, an abandoned coal terminal popular with street artists and adventure seekers. Reporting for @nytimes


"I’ve visited the Center City Macy’s many times. To get there, I’ve had to navigate the gauntlet of misery that too often characterizes Philadelphia’s downtown streets." "Gauntlet of misery" is an apt description of what it's like to walk around Center City right now.

A better headline would have been, Recent Events Imply Escapes Becoming More Common. Yes, there have only been 14 escapes in the past 8 years--but there have already been 6 this year. @SpotlightPA mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbo…

Search efforts for escapee Danelo Cavalcante continues this morning. There were two confirmed sightings of Cavalcante within the search area yesterday, September 8th. The search area now runs from Conservatory Rd. to State Route 52 and Street Rd. to Longwood Rd.


Day 9 dispatch: Pennsylvania State Police “optimistic” that the search will wear down Mr. Cavalcante and that authorities would capture him when he inevitably made a mistake. nytimes.com/2023/09/08/us/…

I mean, I know this is a brilliant PR move, but

PA State Police K9 Loki, who suffered a heat-related illness during the search for escapee Danelo Cavalcante, was discharged from veterinary care today. Thank you to the veterinary staff for their care and the public for the well wishes on his recovery!
