Motorcycle officers did traffic control at 5th & Chestnut (Route 462) on Friday to allow a convoy to pass through. The convoy was part of National Police Week (NPW), being held May 12-18 this year in Washington, D.C., to honor the service and sacrifice of U.S. law enforcement officers. On May 11 and 12, surviving families and co-workers begin arriving in Washington, D.C. for the events.
In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed Public Law 87-726 designating May 15 as Peace Officers’ Memorial Day, and the week in which May 15 falls as National Police Week. The law was amended by the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994, Public Law 103-322, signed by President Bill Clinton, directing that the flag of the United States be displayed at half-staff on all government buildings on May 15 each year.
Here’s a video of the tail end of the convoy.
Following are photos from the 2022 convoy:

After police found six dogs, including five puppies, living in unsanitary conditions on the side porch of a condemned home in Lancaster County, Amanda Kinnard, 38, of Columbia was arrested and charged with multiple counts of animal abuse.
According to online court records, Kinnard is facing six counts each of neglect of animals – vet care, cruelty to animals, and neglect of animals – shelter/protection.
Kinnard’s mother, Tammy, contacted Katherine Hogan, a Humane Society Police Officer with the Pennsylvania SPCA, on September 18, 2023, to report that Kinnard had acquired five pitbull puppies. This incident occurred after Hogan had previously seized three dogs from Kinnard’s residence on South 8th Street in May 2023, as detailed in the affidavit.

The Lancaster-Lebanon League’s third and final girls basketball coaching vacancy was filled this week, when Tyrell Keyes gained school board approval at Columbia.
He’s a familiar face around the league; Keyes played basketball during his high school days at Manheim Township, and he’s spent the last four seasons as an assistant coach in Solanco’s boys program — including the last two as the Golden Mules’ JV head coach.
Keyes succeeds Karl Kreiser, who retired after this past season after two stints and 284 victories as Columbia’s girls coach. He guided the Crimson Tide to three straight section titles and to four straight district championship games to cap his coaching career.
