A portion of the Willow Grove Mall was evacuated this afternoon after a bomb threat was discovered. The Macy's department store was cleared when a note was found inside saying there was a bomb in the store at 3:30 p.m. Police and Montgomery County officials ordered all customers and employees to leave the store as they searched the store. The rest of the mall was operating normally. After completing their search, officials did not find anything. Macy's officials planned to reopen the department store at 6:30 p.m.

The body of teenager was found dead along the side of a road last night near West Chester. The Chester County DA says that this was not an accident, that the teen was shot. 17-year-old Cristian Santiago was discovered along Hillsdale Road between McIntosh Road and Bradford Avenue in East Bradford Township around 10:20 p.m. Thursday night. D.A. Tom Hogan says they have physical evidence and strong leads and expect to make an arrest soon. Anybody with information is asked to contact the Chester County Detectives at 610-344-6866 or the West Chester Police Department at 610-696-2700.

UPDATE: The Chester County DA has announced the arrest of four people in connection with the shooting. Officials say that Onray Winfield, Gerald Myers, Darrell Woodward and Bryon Stevens arranged to meet Santiago at a gas station near West Chester for a drug deal with the intention of robbing him. They picked him up in a car. He was shot at close range in the chest. They stole a quarter ounce of marijuana and $30 before dumping his body. They are being held without bail.

Twin brothers were found shot dead Friday morning inside a car in Camden, NJ. 26-year-olds Markice and Maurice Harper were discovered around 7:30 a.m. at Collings Road and South Constitution Road. Police believe they had been dead for several hours before before a passing motorist spotted them and called 911. Friends say that they had just purchased the SUV several days ago. A $2,500 reward is being offered for an arrest and conviction of the killer. If you have any information you should call Detective Mike Sutley and Detective Ted Desantis at 856-614-8003 or 856-757-7420.
