Online voter registration “has made registration convenient, accurate and secure,” Gov. Tom Wolf said in a statement on the report. “It just made sense that online registration should be the first step as we began our work to bring about much needed election reforms.”

 

CAR CRASHES INTO HOUSE

A car flipped over into a house on Mercer Road in North Sewickley Township around 7:30 Sunday morning.

Police say Zacharie Mitchell, 23, of Monaca, was behind the wheel.

“At this time we believe he was under the influence of at least alcohol, possibly other controlled substances and he indicated to us he was coming home from a party,” said Patrolman Royce Deyber of North Sewickley Township Police.

The owner of the home, Susan Baker, said”I heard a big boom and ran to go down the steps,” “But there weren’t any steps there.”

 

The inside of the home was filled with debris once the car was towed away.

Charges against Mitchell are pending.
