PA Mandatory Kindergarten, Blasius Factory Closed, Newark Bomb Threat

A Pennsylvania state lawmaker from our area is pushing to make kindergarten mandatory in public schools and to improve the accessibility of Pre-K. Pennsylvania and New Jersey are among the six states that do not have a law requiring school districts to provide kindergarten for young students. Wednesday, State Representative Brendan Boyle held a hearing on his proposals.

The City of Philadelphia has shut down a popular candy company in the Kensington section of the city. The Department of Revenue revoked the business license of Blasius Chocolate Factory. Currently, a cease operations stop work order is hanging on the door. Officials say the company was delinquent in taxes.

Police in Newark, Delaware are investigating a bomb threat at a car dealership Wednesday night. At 5:23 p.m., Newark Police say an unknown suspect called in a bomb threat at an unspecified Porter Auto Group location on East Cleveland Avenue. Four Porter Auto Group buildings were evacuated and K-9 teams swept the buildings for explosives. Police say the investigation has determined that the threat was unfounded.
