WHAT ONE STATE OFFICIAL SAYS IN RESPONSE TO THE CANCELLATION OF AN OPENLY GAY ACTOR’S VISIT. THIS IS COVERAGE YOU CAN COUNT ON. WGAL NEWS EIGHT AT FOUR STARTS NOW. LANCASTER COUNTY’S BRYAN CUTLER, THE REPUBLICAN LEADER IN THE HOUSE, SURVIVED A STIFF PRIMARY CHALLENGE FROM HIS OPPONENT AS HE SEEKS A NINTH TERME. GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYBODY. I’M MICHAEL FULLER, NEWS EIGHT’S BARBARA BARR TALK WITH CUTLER ABOUT THE VICTORY IN IS LIVE IN LANCASTER. HEY BARB. MICHAEL. REPRESENTATIVE CUTLER DEFEATED BUSINESSMAN DAVE NISSLEY BY EIGHT POINTS A PRETTY TOUGH CHALLENGE HERE IN THIS REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. HE REPRESENTS THE 100 DISTRICT, WHICH CONSISTS OF SOUTHERN LANCASTER COUNTY, QUARRYVILLE DREW MORE EAST, DRUMORE TOWNSHIP AND THE STRASBURG AREA. NOW CUTLER AND NISSLEY. WELL, THEY AGREE ON A NUMBER OF ISSUES AS YOU MIGHT EXPECT FROM REPUBLICANS, INCLUDING GUN RIGHTS, LOWERING TAXES. BUT WHERE THE SPLIT CAME WAS NISSLEY WAS SUPPORTED BY THE CONSERVATIVE PAC CITIZENS ALLIANCE OF PENNSYLVANIA, WHICH CRITICIZED CUTLER FOR TRYING TO REACH BY PARTIZAN COMPROMISE WHILE SPEAKER, INCLUDING SUPPORTING AND PASSING ACT 77. THE MAIL IN VOTING LAW AND ALSO IGNORING PRESSURE FROM SOME GROUPS FOLLOWING THE 2020 ELECTION TO TRY TO FLIP THE ELECTORAL VOTES. AFTER BIDEN WAS DECLARED THE WINNER. NOW, CUTLER TALKED ABOUT THIS OPPOSITION FUNDING AGAINST HIM. WELL, IT CERTAINLY IS A CHALLENGE FOR US IN THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS. I WOULD HAVE MUCH RATHER SEEN THIS MONEY BE SPENT IN RETAKING THE MAJORITY. THAT SHOULD BE WHAT WE ARE FOCUSED ON. THEY UNFORTUNATELY HAVE FOCUSED ON TAKING OUT OTHER REPUBLICANS. IN FACT, I’VE NEVER SEEN THEM OR THESE PATRIOT GROUPS THAT ALSO WAITED ON THE RACE. NOW, CUTLER SAYS HE’S OPTIMISTIC REPUBLICANS COULD RETAKE THE HOUSE IN THE FALL. HE BELIEVES HE CAN WORK WITH DEMOCRATS WHEN ISSUES RANGING FROM EDUCATION AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT COMING UP AT SIX, WE’LL HEAR WHAT HE HAS TO SAY ABOUT THE MINIMUM WAGE, AND HE’LL BE RUNNING PRETTY MUCH UNOPPOSED IN THE NOVEMBER ELECTION. SO HE’S PRETTY MUCH GUARANTEED THAT 10TH TURM LIVE IN LANCASTER, BARBARA BARR NEWS EIGHT. WE’LL BE WATCHING. ALL RIGHT, BARBARA, THANK YOU. AND WHEN WE CONTINUE OUR COVERAGE OF THE PRIMARY ELECTION, TAKING A LOOK AT SOME OF THE RESULTS, NEWS EIGHT’S JERE GISH IS HERE WITH A CLOSER LOOK. SOME OF THESE WERE TIGHT RACES, JERRY.

NEWS EIGHT’S COMMITMENT 2024 COVERAGE WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE GENERAL ELECTION, OF COURSE, IN NOVEMBER, AND YOU CAN FIND ALL OF LAST NIGHT’S PRIMARY RESULTS RIGHT NOW ON WJHL.COM. MICHAEL, BACK TO YOU. ALL RIGHT JERRY THANK YOU. AND NOW SWITCHING GEARS, TAKING A LIVE LOOK ACROSS THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY ON THE NEWS EIGHT SKYCAM NETWORK. SOME RAIN EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON, BUT THE SUN IS OUT. YOU SEE BEAUTIFUL SKIES ACROSS THE BOARD. AND METEOROLOGIST TJ SPRINGER IS HERE WITH WHAT WE CAN EXPECT GOING INTO TONIGHT. WHAT’S IT GOING TO LOOK LIKE TJ? HEY MICHAEL. WE’VE HAD SOME SHOWERS OUT THERE AT TIMES. WE’VE ALSO HAD THAT SUNSHINE THAT YOU WERE HITTING ON. SO CERTAINLY A GLASS HALF FULL KIND OF DAY. BUT YOU’VE NEEDED THAT UMBRELLA AT TIMES. HAD SOME DOWNPOURS EARLIER ON THIS AFTERNOON AS THIS UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WAS SWINGING ON TO THE EAST, AND WE CAN STILL SEE A FEW SHOWERS OUT THERE ACROSS SOME OF LEBANON, DAUPHIN AND FAR WESTERN MIFFLIN AND JUNIATA COUNTY. NOT QUITE DONE YET, BUT WE ARE GOING TO SEE A LOT OF THIS ACTIVITY FADE THROUGH THE EVENING. WE CAN SEE THAT BLUE SKY MIXED WITH CLOUDS AND THE RED ROSE CITY PEEKING EASTBOUND OVER SOME OF DOWNTOWN LANCASTER. NOT TOO SHABBY, BUT WE ACTUALLY HAD SOME REPORTS OF SOME SMALL HAIL IN THE RED RIVER CITY EARLIER ON THIS AFTERNOON, WHEN SOME OF THOSE DOWNPOURS WERE WORKING THROUGH. WE’RE AT A 70 IN GETTYSBURG, 66 IN LANCASTER. THE SAME GOES FOR HARRISBURG. WE NOW HAVE A 61 IN. FOR THOSE OF YOU IN LEWISTOWN, OUR FIRST FOUR FOR EXPECTING TEMPERATURES TO DROP BACK INTO THE 50S, CLOUDS WILL SLOWLY DIMINISH. AND THAT WILL LEAD US TO A CHILLY NIGHT. WE DO HAVE AN IMPACT NIGHT ONCE AGAIN FOR THE FROST POTENTIAL, AND WE’LL TALK A BIT MORE ABOUT THAT HERE. MICHAEL, COMING UP IN JUST A LITTLE WHILE. OH, FROST, WE DON’T LIKE THAT. BUT YOU KNOW, I GUESS WE GOT IT ALL RIGHT TJ THANK YOU. WELL LAST WEEK THE CUMBERLAND VALLEY SCHOOL BOARD VOTED TO CANCEL OPENLY GAY ACTOR MALIK PANCHOLI’S VISIT TO AN ANTI-BULLYING EVENT AT A MIDDLE SCHOOL. AND TONIGHT, THE BOARD IS RECONSIDERING THAT DECISION. NEWS EIGHT’S TOM LEHMAN IS LIVE IN SILVER SPRING TOWNSHIP WITH MORE. HEY, TOM. HEY, MICHAEL. A LOT OF PEOPLE EXPECTED FOR THAT MEETING, WHICH IS GOING TO GET UNDERWAY AT ABOUT 5 P.M., A LITTLE UNDER AN HOUR HERE AT THE DISTRICT’S HIGH SCHOOL, THE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER HERE, YOU CAN SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE ALREADY GATHERED OUTSIDE OF WHERE THE MEETING IS GOING TO BE TAKING PLACE TONIGHT. THEY’RE HERE BECAUSE THEY HOPE THE BOARD WILL REVERSE ITS DECISION TO CANCEL THAT PLANNED VISIT NEXT MONTH BY ACTOR, AUTHOR AND ACTIVIST MAULIK PANCHOLY. THAT VISIT WAS SCHEDULED FOR MOUNTAIN VIEW MIDDLE SCHOOL AND WOULD HAVE FEATURED PANCHOLY AND ACTOR KNOWN FOR HIS WORK ON 30 ROCK AND VOICING KIDS CARTOONS, WHO IS ALSO WRITTEN ABOUT DIVERSITY. NOW, BOARD MEMBERS CITED PANCHOLI’S SELF-DESCRIBED ACTIVISM ON ISSUES LIKE DIVERSITY, BUT SOME ALSO RAISED CONCERN OVER HIS LIFESTYLE AND THAT PANCHOLY MIGHT DISCUSS SUBJECT MATTERS OF HIS BOOKS, WHICH HAVE FEATURED GAY CHARACTERS. THE BOARD’S DECISION HAS BEEN MET WITH A LOT OF BACKLASH IN THE COMMUNITY, THOUGH, AND THIS ALSO INCLUDES THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE PENNSYLVANIA HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION. I THINK THE MOST CONCERNING THING IS HOW CAN WE IMPRESS UPON INDIVIDUALS THAT IT’S NOT REALLY ABOUT OUR DIFFERENCES, IT’S ABOUT WHO WE ARE. DO WE SEE THE INHERENT DIGNITY IN ALL INDIVIDUALS? NOW, THE COMMISSION DOES PLAN TO HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE AT TONIGHT’S MEETING TO TRY AND SMOOTH OVER ISSUES AND TRY AND PROVIDE SOME EDUCATION FOR THE BOARD. NOW, THE BOARD CITED A POLICY OF NOT HAVING POLITICAL EVENTS AT ITS FACILITIES, AND THAT’S THE REASON WHY THEY SAID THEY WEREN’T GOING TO ALLOW PANCHOLY TO VISIT. THEY SAID. HIS SELF-DESCRIBED WORK AS AN ACTIVIST WAS A REASON WHY THEY WERE WORRIED ABOUT HIM COMING TO THIS LOCATION, BUT OBVIOUSLY THEY’RE GOING TO RECONSIDER THIS VOTE TONIGHT. WE’RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO FOLLOW DEVELOPMENTS. BUT FOR NOW, IN SILVER SPRING TOWNSHIP, TOM LEHMAN, WGAL NEWS EIGHT. IT’S A HOT TOPIC IN THAT AREA. WE’LL DEFINITELY BE WATCHING. ALL RIGHT, TOM, THANK YOU. NOW OVER TO HARRISBURG WHERE A SECOND SUSPECT HAS BEEN ARRESTED IN A DEADLY SHOOTING LAST WEEK, ERIC BOONE WAS ARRESTED YESTERDAY AND CHARGED WITH MURDER. POLICE SAY HE WAS INVOLVED IN THE SHOOTING. THAT LEFT A MAN DEAD LAST WEDNESDAY IN THE AREA OF EVERGREEN AND THOMPSON STREETS. MARCUS STOLTZ WAS ARRESTED FRIDAY IN CONNECTION TO THE SAME CRIME. AND TODAY THE PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF DRUG AND ALCOHOL PROGRAMS WERE IN LEHIGH COUNTY TO ENCOURAGE PENNSYLVANIANS TO TAKE PART IN THE NATIONAL PRESCRIPTION DRUG TAKE BACK DAY INITIATIVE HAPPENING ON SATURDAY. NOW, THE PROGRAM ALLOWS PEOPLE TO GET RID OF UNUSED PRESCRIPTIONS AND DURING THE LAST TAKE BACK DAY, 208 PENNSYLVANIA LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES PARTICIPATED AND COLLECTED OVER 30,000 POUNDS OF UNUSED OR EXPIRED MEDICATIONS, WHICH IS A FRACTION OF NEARLY 9000 TONS COLLECTED NATIONWIDE. WHEN YOU CONSIDER THAT ONE PILL WEIGHS LESS THAN A DOLLAR, IT REALLY PUTS THE MAGNITUDE. OF 30,000 POUNDS INTO PERSPECTIVE. I ENCOURAGE ALL PENNSYLVANIANS TO TAKE PART IN SATURDAY’S EVENT, AND IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A DROP OFF, YOU CAN FIND A LOCATION AT HIS PARTICIPATE IN TAKE BACK DAY BY HEADING TO THE U.S. DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION’S WEBSITE. IT’S DEA.GOV/TAKE BACK DAY. AND NOW OVER TO MECHANICSBURG WHERE A FIRE THIS MORNING AT A HOTEL IN CUMBERLAND COUNTY FORCED MORE THAN 100 GUESTS FROM THEIR ROOMS. NEWS EIGHT’S JAY SCOTT SMITH HAS THE STORY. IT WAS AN EARLY MORNING FIRE HERE AT THIS HAMPTON INN IN LOWER ALLEN TOWNSHIP, JUST OUTSIDE OF MECHANICS THAT HAPPENED IN THAT HOTEL ROOM ON THE THIRD FLOOR THAT LED TO MORE THAN 100 GUESTS BEING EVACUATED. THE CALL FIRST CAME IN AROUND 2:45 A.M. ON THE REPORT OF A FIRE, AND THERE WAS ONE GUEST IN THAT PARTICULAR ROOM AT THE TIME, ACCORDING TO CUMBERLAND COUNTY OFFICIALS. NOW, IT WAS NOT JUST THE FLAMES, BUT IT WAS ALSO THE SUBSEQUENT SMOKE THAT FORCED THE EVACUATION OF THE HOTEL’S 133 GUESTS. FIREFIGHTERS WERE SEEN ASSISTING THE GUESTS WITH BY GETTING THEIR THINGS OUT OF THEIR HOTEL ROOMS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, THEY ALL CONGREGATED OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING AND WERE EVENTUALLY SET UP IN OTHER HOTELS THROUGHOUT THE AREA. NOW, CREWS FROM LOWER ALLEN TOWNSHIP WERE OUT HERE IN FRONT OF THE HOTEL FOR JUST ABOUT THREE HOURS. THEY MADE THEIR WAY OUT OF HERE. AROUND 5:45 A.M. NOW, WE DON’T YET HAVE A DEFINITIVE CAUSE OF THIS FIRE. HOWEVER, WE DO KNOW THAT THERE WERE NO INJURIES TO THE GUESTS THAT WERE IN THE ROOM, NOR WERE THERE ANY INJURIES TO THE GUESTS THAT WERE INSIDE OF THE HOTEL. AND THE INVESTIGATION INTO WHAT CAUSED THIS FIRE IS CONTINUING IN LOWER ALLEN TOWNSHIP. I’M JAY SCOTT SMITH FOR WGAL NEWS EIGHT. WELL, A CAR CRASHED INTO A PAPA JOHN’S RESTAURANT LATE LAST NIGHT IN LANCASTER COUNTY, MANOR TOWNSHIP POLICE RESPONDED TO THE CRASH JUST BEFORE MIDNIGHT ON COLUMBIA AVENUE. HOWEVER, THERE’S NO WORD ON ANY INJURIES AS WELL. STILL TO COME ON. NEWS EIGHT AT FOUR. THE PA STATE GRANT PROGRAM, FAFSA EXTENDED. WE’LL HEAR FROM SOME AT THEA ON WHY IT WAS EXTENDED. THE BOTTOM LINE IS YOU GET YOUR MONEY BACK AND YOU GET YOUR MONEY BACK WITHOUT HAVING TO ASK. PLUS, A LITTLE LATER, THE NEW RULES THAT MEAN CASH REFUNDS FOR AIR TRAVELERS. SO YOU GET A CALL FROM WHAT YOU THINK IS YOUR ELECTRIC COMPANY. YOU’RE GOING TO LISTEN, RIGHT? BUT IT MAY NOT BE FROM YOUR POWER COMPANY. I MADE ON YOUR SIDE CONSUMER INVESTIGATOR BRIAN ROACH.
