PITTSTON AREA FOOTBALL: Patriots overwhelm Trojans with 47 first-half points

YATESVILLE — Matt Walter. CJ Pietrzak. Lucas Lopresto.

Nanticoke had no luck dealing with those three weapons Friday night.

Pittston Area used the talents of its three offensive leaders to run past Nanticoke 55-0 Friday night at Charley Trippi Stadium.

Walter, Pietrzak and Lopresto were collectively responsible for 30 of those points.

“In this conference and district, you’ve got to be able to run the football, so I think we’ve been doing that pretty well the last two weeks,” Pittston Area coach Joe DeLucca said after posting his first football head coaching victory. “We’ve got to continue buttoning some things up on the offensive side of the ball.”

Just about the only blemish on the Patriots’ side of the boxscore was the penalty column, which showed seven for 60 yards.

Pittston Area got off to a hot start, scoring touchdowns on two of its first three drives. Both of those scores came courtesy of quarterback Walter, who scored from 9 and 10 yards out.

Pietrzak took over in the second quarter, which is where Pittston Area’s dominance on the night became stark. The Patriots scored 31 points in the second frame, with Pietrzak scoring on runs of 1 and 50 yards. In between, Walter hooked up with Lopresto for a 40-yard strike. And, with a minute left in the quarter, Aidan Brody expanded the Patriots lead to 47-0 on, appropriately, a 47-yard dash to the end zone.

Special teams played a big part in the first half. Kicker Gavin Wolfe routinely pinned the Trojans offense inside the 20 with his booming kickoffs after each score. Wolfe tacked on a 31-yard field goal later in the midst of Pittston Area’s second-quarter onslaught.

The game also featured a safety, which spouted from a broken fourth-down play. Punter Chris Julian was swarmed by…

17-year-old dies after Nanticoke shooting, incident under investigation

NANTICOKE, LUZERNE CO. (WOLF) — Minden Court in the Honey Pot section of Nanticoke looks different than it did Sunday following the shooting of a teen.

According to our newsgathering partners at the Times Leader, police responded a little after 3:30 p.m. where a 17-year-old was found with a gunshot wound.

Police identified the deceased teenager as Hunter Sipple, 17. An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday.

A friend of the victim was celebrating the holiday weekend when the news broke on social media.

“I was scrolling through my Facebook, and I saw about a 17-year-old male in the Honey Pot section, and I was shocked. I just couldn’t believe it, the first thing I thought was wow, is that someone I know in my area,” says Haylee, a friend of the victim.

Monday afternoon, Nanticoke Police Chief Michael Roke confirmed with a media outlet that the victim had died, although FOX56 has not independently confirmed this.

“It is so hard to understand how something that crazy could happen, how easy it seems for people just to get their hands on firearms, and it is especially not good with children because they just don’t understand how dangerous it is,” Haylee explained.

Haylee says she will remember the victim as a loving, selfless person.

“He was just a loving kid he would shovel for you; he would go out of his way and give you the shirt off his back. He loved his mother, his brother, and his family and they’re really in my thoughts right now,” Haylee says.

Haylee encourages the community to come together to support the victim’s family as they navigate new waters.

“We all need to get together and support the family in any way we can. I can’t imagine losing a son or daughter at such a young age,” Haylee said.

According to Nanticoke police officers, the…

A 17-year-old boy who was hospitalized following a shooting in the Honeypot section of Nanticoke Sunday night has died, according to Nanticoke Police Chief Michael Roke.

The victim suffered a gunshot wound to the left side of his upper chest near his shoulder and was taken to Geisinger Wyoming Hospital, where he later died. An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday.

According to Roke, no arrests have been made and police are still investigating to determine whether or not the shooting occurred with “intent.”

According to a search warrant:

Police were first dispatched to a home along Minden Court around 4:42 p.m. Sunday for a report of a gunshot victim.

Upon arrival, officers said they made contact with an 18-year-old male who was sitting on the steps outside of the house, holding the victim.

The 18-year-old initially told police that he was in the living room wrestling with the victim when they fell into a wooden cabinet, causing a gun to fall off one of the shelves and onto the living room floor.

He stated that the gun then discharged and struck the victim, the affidavit read.

Court records reported that the 18-year-old then admitted to investigators that he was actually fooling around the gun when it discharged.

The affidavit also stated that police seized several items from the scene including any and all firearms, shell casings, bullet fragments, clothing and…

WILKES-BARRE — A registered sexual offender charged with fatally beating a woman inside her Nanticoke apartment in 2023 waived his right to a preliminary hearing Friday, sending charges of criminal homicide and aggravated assault to Luzerne County Court.

Kawan Ikee Scarborough, 39, was charged by the Pennsylvania State Police at Wilkes-Barre in June 2024, for the beating death of Lastarr Williams, 27, inside an apartment at 203 W. Church St. on May 27, 2023, according to court records.

Scarborough was linked to the beating death by bloody sneakers and clothing seized by investigators from a residence in Scranton, court records say.

Williams was found deceased inside her apartment when her daughter told a neighbor her mother would not wake up.

The child later told investigators and family, court records say, Scarborough struck Williams in the face and chest with a hammer.

Investigators observed a bloody sneaker print, blood spatter throughout the apartment and mail with Scarborough’s name inside the apartment.

Court records say Scarborough was recorded by surveillance cameras jumping over a fence behind the apartment at about 9:58 p.m. on May 26, 2023.

Investigators learned Scarborough was given a ride to an apartment in Scranton where Scarborough was known to frequent. Sneakers and clothing with blood spatter seized from the Scranton apartment matched Williams’ DNA, court records say.

Attorneys James J. Scanlon and Max C. Lubin represent Scarborough.

Assistant district attorneys Carly Levandoski and Brian Coleman are prosecuting.
