- Description
- Gov. Josh Shapiro said he intends to use "every single bit of power" he has to prevent the federal government from following through with plans to convert two Pennsylvania warehouses into ICE detention centers.
The governor spoke at the Berks County Agricultural Center in Leesport Thursday afternoon following a meeting with Berks and Schuylkill county officials regarding U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement’s plans.
The two warehouses are located in Berks County and Schuylkill counties and were confirmed to have been purchased by the Department of Homeland Security earlier this year. The governor has previously said the properties could hold a combined 9,000 people.
The plans have sparked protests and mixed reactions from those who live nearby.

- Description
- It has been one year since West York Borough Police Officer Andrew Duarte was shot and killed in the line of duty.
On Feb. 22, 2025, multiple police agencies responded to UPMC Memorial Hospital for a hostage situation. Investigators said a gunman entered the hospital’s intensive care unit and held several people hostage. In a crossfire attack, police killed the gunman, saving the hostage and others inside. But officer Duarte was hit by one of the bullets and died.
One year later, a memorial gallery stands inside the West York Borough Police Department in Duarte’s honor. The space includes photographs and paintings. Some taken by Duarte himself — others from people impacted by the tragedy.
“Drew’s art’s here. I wanted his photography here. My photograph of him is here,” his mother, Nancy Duarte Matarese, said. “It’s just a nice place to come and sit.”

- The Harrisburg City Council voted 7-0 in favor of Bill 1- 2026, unanimously passing legislation that limits city officials from using city resources to assist with immigration enforcement, unless explicitly required by state or federal law.
The topic has been heavily debated since the legislation was first introduced earlier this month.
Protests against ICE raged outside Harrisburg city council chambers as members listened to over an hour of public comment.
"The point here, in fact, is our taxes should not be used nor our police force or any physical plant that is run by our local government to support US federal policies that aren’t welcome here,” Keith Bentz who lives in Harrisburg said.

- Imagine going into labor a month early, during a major snowstorm, and delivering your first baby in the back of a tractor-trailer.
That’s exactly what happened to one Pennsylvania family. What was supposed to be a routine stop during a snowstorm quickly turned into an emergency delivery.
On Jan. 25, truck driver Davidson Etienne said the roads in Carlisle were completely covered in snow. The couple had been staying at a motel after finishing a few deliveries. They weren't expecting their baby for another month.
Then, her water broke.

Under Pennsylvania law, any child charged with homicide — regardless of age — is automatically charged as an adult. But that does not mean the case must stay there.
Advocates say the difference between the two systems could dramatically shape the course of his life.

- Just two United States presidents have been born in the state of Pennsylvania. There's one who everyone will know, 46th President Joe Biden. The other is someone much less celebrated, and his legacy is one that some counties refuse to recognize.
"I don't think that Buchanan's presence historically was very prominent in Lebanon,” Jim Polszynski of the Lebanon County Historical Society said. “You know, in Lancaster he was much more visible. He gave a very famous July 4th speech when he was younger. He had Wheatland."
Buchanan was born in Cove Gap, Franklin County, and attended college at Dickinson College in Cumberland County. After graduating, Buchanan became a prominent lawyer in Lancaster County and even had some ties to Lebanon County. He even represented Dauphin County once his political career began.

- A child accused of shooting and killing his father in their Duncannon home about a month ago had his first court hearing on Thursday.
Clayton Dietz, 11, was charged as an adult with criminal homicide for the deadly shooting, which happened Jan. 13 on the child’s birthday.
Dietz arrived at the Perry County Courthouse in New Bloomfield just after noon Thursday for a 1:30 p.m. preliminary hearing that he waived. He was handcuffed and surrounded by probation officers.
The boy appeared to be tripping over himself while appearing in court.
CBS 21's Lily Sexton was at the courthouse and overheard Dietz telling his mother that the handcuffs were hurting him.
While the family had no comment to the media, his legal representation laid out potential plans for the trial.

- Hershey shows how Reese's Cups are made after allegations of recipe change by originator's grandson
- Runtime

- Description
- Just days ago, Brad Reese, the grandson of Reese's founder H.B. Reese posted on LinkedIn expressing his displeasure with the Hershey Company's handling of his grandfather's iconic Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. He claimed that the chocolate company has made subtle changes to the cups, replacing the peanut butter with a "peanut butter style creme" and the milk chocolate with a chocolate candy coating.
After walking around Derry Township earlier today, CBS 21 learned that some folks agree with Reese, claiming they can taste the difference in the cups and that they have for years.
"I mean, I love it, I can't complain, but I do think there's a little bit something different with the peanut butter taste," said Jim McDermott.
"The regular formula has been different like recently," said Trinitee Stokes.
But the Hershey Company says that the recipe has not changed at all since Hershey began producing Reese's candy.

- Venue responds to city claims it withheld entertainment taxes as closure looms

- Description
- The Harrisburg Midtown Art Center is responding to accusations that it took and withheld taxes.
Its response comes after city leaders commented on HMAC's impending closure during a council meeting Tuesday night.
According to HMAC founder John Traynor, who spoke with CBS 21 News over the phone, the amusement tax, also known as the entertainment tax, hasn't been paid for roughly three years because "we are a small business struggling in a tough economy." He also said it's because the city did not respond to their attempts to discuss next steps.
However, city treasurer Dan Miller said paying the amusement tax is straightforward: it is 10% of every ticket sold and should be built into ticket prices. In other words, the tax is paid by the customer, not the venue, and is meant to be submitted to the city every month.
