CENTRE COUNTY, Pa (WJAC) — The motorist who says he was assaulted by state police prior to his arrest in Centre County could be facing even more criminal charges stemming from the high-speed chase that police say happened before he was arrested.
“They're trying to kill me, keeping me locked up.”
Dereck Raimey returned to the Centre County Prison this week after his bail was doubled to $100,000.
The decision followed a hearing in which his attorney is challenging whether state police had probable cause to charge Raimey last December while he was driving on Interstate 80.
CLERMONT, Fla. (TND) — A driver caught speeding "immediately told me she does not have her driver's license on her,” a police officer said, “but stated that she would give me her name and date of birth."
The officer didn’t believe the driver and eventually arrested her for giving false information to a law enforcement officer, and more.
The traffic stop took place in Florida last Monday evening, April 29.
PLUM, Pa. (AP) — Investigators said Friday the location of an explosion that killed six people and destroyed three houses near Pittsburgh last month was inside one of the homes, ruling out an outside cause.
The Allegheny County fire marshal's office said all potential outside factors were eliminated, including wells, pipelines and other utilities, pinpointing the source as a home on Rustic Ridge Drive in Plum Borough.
The cause of the explosion remains under investigation, the office said, and there is no time frame for when the probe will be completed.

Pennsylvania is the only state in the country that does not allow local police departments to use radar guns to catch speeders.
Tuesday, the Pennsylvania Radar Coalition held a meeting where officials called for the state to re-examine its radar gun policy.
Officials during that meeting said speeding caused nearly 41 percent of Pennsylvania traffic deaths.
They also said House Bill 606 would help address this issue by allowing local police to use radar guns, among other things.
