Police: Man found taking drunken nap inside bar

MOUNT JEWETT, Pa.

State police have charged a man with criminal trespass and public drunkenness for reportedly breaking into a northwestern Pennsylvania bar, where he was found napping on a table.

The Bradford Era reports that 35-year-old William Duffy, of Bradford, faces a preliminary hearing Thursday.

He was arraigned Sunday morning, about four hours after he was found inside the Mountain Inn Bar in Mount Jewett, shortly after 4 a.m. that day. That’s about 110 miles northeast of Pittsburgh.

Police say the bar owner called to report someone loitering near the business. By the time police arrived, they found that Duffy had broken into the bar through a window and was napping on a table in the kitchen.

Online court records don’t list an attorney for Duffy, who doesn’t have a listed phone.

100 onions grown by Maine 5th-graders stolen

WATERVILLE, Maine

It was supposed to be a lesson in growing your own food, healthy eating and helping the less fortunate. Instead, a group of Maine fifth-graders got a lesson in the harsh realities of life.

When students at Albert S. Hall School in Waterville went out last week to harvest the yellow onions planted last spring, they found that all 100 had been stolen.

Their plan was to give half the onions to a homeless shelter and half to the school kitchen to be used in school lunches.

Student Ashley Harwood called the theft “kind of depressing.” Student Hannah Hall says the class was sad.

Teacher Mary Dunn says she plans to turn the theft into a lesson anyway, about coming together when things don’t go as planned.

Sleepwalking camper injured in cliff fall

SLADE, Ky.

Rescue crews say an Ohio man who was camping with friends in central Kentucky’s Red River Gorge is recovering after falling from a cliff while sleepwalking.

Powell County Emergency Management told WKYT-TV that the group had set up camp near Grey’s Arch Trail and the man’s friends called for help after realizing that he was missing in the middle of the night.

Wolfe County rope technician John May told the station the Cincinnati man, whose name wasn’t released, fell about 60 feet early Thursday and landed in an area with several large boulders.

He called it a “miracle” that the man survived. May said the camper suffered a head injury, a dislocated shoulder and a fractured leg, but he’s expected to make a full recovery.
