The case of the Coatesville arsons may have been solved, at least partially. Police arrested a 19-year-old tech student from Downington who is suspected of setting at least nine of the twenty-four fires that made headlines and put so many people out of homes. Police also arrested a 20-year-old in connection with the attempted arson of the Happy Days Family Bistro in Thorndale, not far from Coatesville.
The much anticipated World War II memorial opened yesterday in Trenton. The memorial is located directly across from the Statehouse’s main entrance. Veterans from all over attended yesterday’s dedication.
