The Albany FireWolves (1-0) defeated the Buffalo Bandits (0-1), 11-10, at the KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York on Saturday evening.

SCORE BY QUARTER 1 2 3 4 FINAL

ALBANY 3 2 4 2 11

BUFFALO 1 3 3 3 10

Buffalo controlled the game’s opening faceoff but came up empty on their first possession as Jamieson stuffed Tehoka Nanticoke at the net. After multiple empty trips by both teams, Nanticoke opened the scoring by putting a shot just outside of Jamieson’s left leg. Minutes later following a timeout, Tanner Thomson knotted the game back at one as he sniped one into the back of the net from deep. On the ensuing possession, newly acquired forward Connor Kelly dove across the crease and went over the left shoulder of Matt Vinc to give the FireWolves their first lead of the night. Wasting no time, another new member of the FireWolves, Ethan Walker, fired one into the net to grow Albany’s early lead. Buffalo was unable to score in the final seconds of the quarter and Albany took a 3-1 lead into the second.

The group honors 343 firefighters who lost their lives on 9/11 at a memorial on the LCCC campus.

NANTICOKE, Pa. — On the campus of Luzerne County Community College sits a “Walk of Honor.” It’s a memorial to the first responders who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, but especially Michael Carlo, a New York City Firefighter killed in the aftermath of the attacks.

This dedication is thanks to Michael’s mother, who is from the Wanamie section of Newport Township.

“He worked the 230 Engine in Brooklyn, and she wanted to do something in his memory,” explained Nanticoke Fire Chief Mark Boncal. “She made a significant donation that was able to have this walk of honor. His plaque was the first one that was put up on the inside in his remembrance.”

Every year, dozens of firefighters who fought alongside Michael make this pilgrimage to this site to pay their respects.

One of those riders is Michael’s brother Robert Carlo.

“Today’s a great way for us to memorialize our brothers. We’ve been doing services all month, the whole month of September,” said Robert.

During a speech at the ceremony, Robert also talked about his mother’s donation and how it made the public safety training institute possible at LCCC. It’s just down the hill from the Walk of Honor.

“We’re lucky enough to be one of the biggest fire departments in the world and have a lot of money to build training facilities and for her to get something like this done and then for them to have the training facility here, and you know, in the county where there isn’t a lot of money to build these things,” said Robert.

Robert says it means a lot to him to have his fellow firefighters take the…

SCRANTON – The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that Dario George, age 31, of Nanticoke, Pennsylvania, was indicted yesterday by a federal grand jury for drug trafficking offenses.

According to United States Attorney Gerard M. Karam, the indictment charges George with four counts of distribution of fentanyl and/or cocaine, and one count of possession with intent to distribute fentanyl, heroin and cocaine.  The offenses occurred between November 23, 2021 and May 19, 2022, in Luzerne County.

The charges against George resulted from an investigation conducted by the Pennsylvania State Police, the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General Bureau of Narcotics Investigation, and the FBI Safe Streets Task Force. Assistant United States Attorney Robert J. O’Hara is prosecuting the case.

The case was brought as part of a district wide initiative to combat the nationwide epidemic regarding the use and distribution of heroin. Led by the United States Attorney’s Office, the Heroin Initiative targets heroin traffickers operating in the Middle District of Pennsylvania and is part of a coordinated effort among federal, state and local law enforcement agencies to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who commit heroin related offenses.

This case is also part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make our neighborhoods safer for everyone. On May 26, 2021, the Department launched a violent crime reduction strategy strengthening PSN based on these core principles: fostering trust and legitimacy in our communities, supporting community-based organizations that help prevent violence from occurring in the first place, setting focused and strategic enforcement priorities, and measuring the results.

Under federal law, George faces a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison, a maximum sentence of 40 years…
