A native of Hopewell Township and his wife are among those killed in a mass shooting at a church near San Antonio. Scott Marshall and his wife Karen were looking for a new church on Sunday when a gunman killed 26 people at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs. The couple visited family in Pennsylvania just last week. The 58-year-old was retired from the Air Force and living in La Vernia, Texas.

A body has been found in the Ohio River in Moon Township. Moon police were notified by a tow boat crew that members of that crew had seen a body floating down the river near the Sewickley Bridge area. The crew tried to reach the body, but it went over the Dashields Dam. Police as well as lock and dam workers were on the scene overnight. The situation is being reassessed this morning. Authorities say the body appeared to have been in the water for quite some time. The gender appeared to be female, according to police….but nothing has been confirmed.
