How degrading. Urinating on a woman? Freaking sick.
The other stories are pretty bad too, but that one stuck out a bit, but not as much as the murderer who shoved that woman down the stares.
Question – why are the stories from LNP on this particular murder so ripe with details, but stories in the city barely get an honorable mention in the Police Log?

*cont* Is there a difference in departments and how much they release to the public?

I think you hit on a good point, FWIW. It appears many county police departments release more information than the Lancaster Police. Please note in the last week or so we have had the following with almost no information released and zero follow-up by LNP:
1. Last Friday morning a man was stabbed at New Dorwart and Manor Streets and in critical condition at LGH last we heard. We have never learned his name, his current condition, any further details regarding the stabbing and obviously no arrest has been made.
2. A suspicious death last Sunday of a man in an apartment at 46 N. Prince Street. Did the police ever release his name? Is this a murder investigation or not? There has not been one word of follow-up by the police or LNP.
3. A city Turkey Hill was robbed by two men. I have to look it up but there was virtually no information released and no arrests have been made.
4. Yesterday’s horrendous arson fire.
— And then in another one I have to look up and review, two men robbed a city man sometime last week. One of the men allegedly hit him with the gun and fired two shots. If I recall, they caught one man but didn’t find the gun and the other robber is still on the loose.
This is ridiculous! WE HAVE A RIGHT TO MORE INFORMATION. IT WOULD HELP GET SOME OF THESE STABBERS AND SHOOTERS AND ARSONISTS OFF THE STREET! NOT TO MENTION KILLERS!

I posted this under another topic in reply to FWIW and I’m also posting it here:

This is attempted murder of 27 people. The perpetrators must be caught!
A 61-year-old resident of one of the apartments suffered inhalation injuries and was taken to Lancaster General Hospital and then to Crozer-Chester Medical Center for more specialized treatment, city police Lt. Michael Winters said in a press release.
The man is in critical condition, according to police. Police did not release his identity because his family was still being notified.
