PennDOT has announced a successful construction season across District 5, including millions of dollars invested in Lehigh Valley road improvements.

The incident occurred at 11:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 21, in the 700 block of West Linden Street.

Lehigh County Coroner Daniel Buglio found the victim died of blunt force injuries after being struck by a vehicle. He ruled the manner of death as homicide.

It marks the first time a key stakeholder has publicly supported offering the community a clearer, regularly updated view of how the school bus camera system operates.

It happened Friday night in the 2000 block of South Fourth Street. An autopsy is set for Monday, according to the Lehigh County Coroner's Office.

More than two dozen Allegiant Air pilots picketed outside Lehigh Valley International Airport on Tuesday as part of a group effort to demand the airline provide them with a better contract after nearly five years of negotiations.

Executive Director Thomas Stoudt said the milestone reflects both Allegiant’s staying power in the Lehigh Valley and the airport’s steady growth as a travel hub.

As the federal government shutdown drags on into its second month, hundreds of flights Friday are being canceled at 40 airports across the country. Regional airports, such as LVIA, could be affected, too.
