[DOWNLOAD: Free WSB-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] Bush was sentenced to 20 years with the first 12 to serve in prison. Morgan was sentenced to 20 years with the first 15 to serve in prison. Treadaway says that because they are repeat offenders, they will have to serve the full sentence. Prosecutors say that in August 2023, Bush and Morgan broke into a home on Shoal Creek Road and stole a Smith & Wesson .44 Magnum revolver, Smith & Wesson AR-15 rifle, a Sig Sauer 9mm pistol, ammunition, six watches, a safe containing $8,000 in cash and landscaping equipment.

Davenport police address accidental shooting that left 4-year-old boy dead
DAVENPORT, Fla. (WFLA) — Davenport Police Chief Steve Parker addressed the deadly shooting over the weekend that left a 4-year-old dead from an accidental gunshot to the head. On Friday evening, 4-year-old Chosen Morris got ahold of a firearm in his parents' vehicle in their garage and accidentally shot himself. The child died from his injuries on Saturday at Arnold Palmer Hospital For Children. The police department said the family was preparing to head out for the night when Chosen got into the vehicle, while his father, Robert, ran to the bathroom, and his mother, Quinta, checked their computer in the master bedroom. His siblings, a 7-year-old boy and an 11-year-old girl were in the living room playing with their electronics, with earbuds in. Officials said Quinta heard a 'pop' and ran out to the living room, believing one of her children broke something. Instead, Quinta discovered the door leading to the garage open and found Chosen in the driver's seat with a gunshot wound to his head. Both parents rushed Chosen to AdventHealth Heart of Florida, located only two miles from their home on Citrus Landing Boulevard. 'They are devastated,' Chief Parker said, referring to Morris' parents. 'I can't even imagine what they're going through right now.' Police said the gun under the driver's seat was a Smith & Wesson M&P .40 caliber handgun. Robert had left the gun in the vehicle on Thursday and had forgotten to remove it, according to the Sheriff. 'We are not seeking any criminal charges,' the chief added, saying the department does not believe there was any negligence from the parents. The Chief of Police reminded residents to secure firearms and to keep them away from children. The Davenport Police Department also gives away free trigger locks to secure firearms, which can be picked up from the station. 'This is a tragic accident. As a father and grandfather, I can't imagine what Mr. and Mrs. Morris are going through right now,' Chief Parker said. 'Our prayers are certainly with the Morris family as they endure this heartbreaking tragedy.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Drug charges against Mahanoy City woman held for court
SHENANDOAH — Three of the four charges against a Mahanoy City woman were held for court Thursday. Ashley Duran, 27, was charged with felony manufacture, delivery or possession with intent to manufacture or deliver, possession of a controlled substance, use or possession of drug paraphernalia, and possessing a firearm when not permitted. The firearm possession charge against Duran was withdrawn, but the other drug offenses were held for court during a preliminary hearing in Magisterial District Judge Anthony Kilker's courtroom in Shenandoah.

Duran admitted to law enforcement that the items belonged to her and that the money found was from the sale of illegal narcotics, according to the documents. Police said Duran is not permitted to own guns because of a prior criminal record. Among the items found when the search warrant was served: – More than $80,000 in cash – Two large foil boxes containing suspected marijuana – Six vacuum-sealed bags of marijuana – Two resealable foil bags containing marijuana – Nineteen clear bags of marijuana – A Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 rifle, a Sig Sauer P365 9mm pistol, a Taurus G2S 9mm pistol, and a SCCY CPX-1 9mm pistol – Vape pens, THC-infused bars, packing materials, and a digital scale The case now proceeds to the Schuylkill County Court of Common Pleas.
