The Ellwood City Medical Center has announced suspension of all clinical services at the hospital. The suspension effectively shuts the hospital down for the year because the emergency room and inpatient services remain under a state health department ban. Officials say more layoffs are coming.
CARNEGIE, Pa. (AP) — No one was injured when a fire broke out in the Pennsylvania home once owned by baseball Hall of Famer Honus Wagner. Officials believe Tuesday’s fire might have started in a clothes dryer in the basement of the home on Beechwood Avenue in Carnegie. The fire then spread through the walls and climbed up the dwelling. It took about five hours for firefighters to extinguish the flames. The house was built for the Pittsburgh shortstop in 1917. He lived there until he died in 1955.

Susan and Frank did a segment on water testing. They tested water that came from the faucet at the radio station, water from her house, and bottled water from a grocery store. Susan did three different types of tests on all three and told the listeners and the Facebook viewers the importance of having you water tested annually if you get your water from a private supply such as a well or spring.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Republican Rep. Ted Yoho of Florida has announced he won’t seek reelection, saying he never meant to spend more than eight years in Congress. Democrats are seizing on the news as a sign of weakening morale among the GOP. Yoho is a Tea Partier who fiercely supports President Donald Trump. He defeated a longtime Republican incumbent in 2012 to represent Gainesville and a swath of northern Florida in Washington. He even tried for Speaker of the U.S. House at a time of disenchantment with former House Speaker John Boehner. Now he joins at least 27 House Republicans who have announced their departures.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General William Barr is leveling blistering criticism at how the Russia investigation was conducted. He says it was based on a “bogus narrative” that the Trump campaign might have conspired with Russia during the 2016 election. Barr spoke to NBC News after the release of a Justice Department inspector general report that found problems with the FBI’s investigation into ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, but also concluded there was a proper basis for opening the probe. Barr said he disagreed with the inspector general that the FBI had enough information to open the probe and particularly to use surveillance on a former Trump campaign aide.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House Judiciary Committee is expected to debate and vote on the two articles of impeachment later this week. The articles, one charging President Donald Trump with abuse of power and the other charging him with obstruction of Congress, would be considered separately. The committee’s vote would send the impeachment articles to the House floor for a vote by Christmas. Next would come a Senate trial, likely in 2020. Senators would act as jurors and select House members to act as prosecutors, or impeachment managers. If the Senate approves an article of impeachment with a two-thirds vote of “guilty,” the president is convicted and removed from office. If articles are rejected, the president is acquitted.
