Yo, Philly in the News

• The Inquirer has the details on yesterday's Phillies pep rally, which folks are claiming was the largest pep rally in the city's history.
• Today is the one year anniversary of the Amish school shooting.
• The Penn student who died on September 9th of meningococcal meningitis was discharged from the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania only days earlier and told she had a viral infection that would soon clear up. Penn officials are still claiming that she was "cared for in a timely fashion with appropriate medical measures by a dedicated and highly skilled team of health-care professionals." But a lawyer hired by the family says she was misdiagnosed.
• The police have a suspect now in the shooting of the son of the city's consumer advocate, and they're looking for help in tracking him down. The suspect is Tyree Bohannon, 21, of the 6500 block of North Fairhill Street in East Oak Lane. If you have any information police ask that you call 911 or Northwest Detectives at 215-685-2838
• On his way to a campaign fund-raiser, Republican presidential candidate and former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani stopped in at Geno's to order a cheesesteak and meet with owner Joey Vento. Vento supports Giuliani because Giuliani supports his "speak English" policy, and is firmly against illegal immigration and illegal immigrants. Mayoral candidate Al Taubenberger showed up to support Giuliani, and several dozen protesters showed up to denounce him.
• One of the firefighters who was injured in a September 26th fire at a garage in Sharon Hill died on Saturday. There will be a public viewing and services on Thursday, a private viewing early Friday morning, and then a fire service procession to the cemetery later that morning.
