Charges of DUI and related summary offenses are pending through the district court in Kylertown.
- An incident of burglary occurred at a vacant, two-story farmhouse on Philips Avenue sometime between May 1 and Saturday in Woodward Township. During the crime, a Whirlpool washer and dryer and a gas range were taken from the farmhouse.

A while, Chevrolet pick-up was seen at the residence approximately two weeks ago, and there was evidence they parked behind the house to avoid detection. Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Clearfield-based state police at 814-857-3800.
