HARRISBURG—Earlier today (04.08.12), a strange situation occurred at O’Reilly’s Auto Parts in Harrisburg.
According to reports our correspondent was able to gather, a man was in the van below, outside O’Reilly’s, fiddling with the van in some way.
The man went into O'Reilly's. People inside the store were concerned about him, because he "looked sick." When our correspondent naturally asked if this were a "mental illness-sick" look, he was told, no---it was a physical illness. However, our correspondent couldn't get anything further out of anyone, as in, no further elaboration as to what kind of "sickness" the guy could be suffering that would cause him to be VISIBLY, noticeably "sick"-looking.Out of concern for the guy, a store employee called the police to come and help him, either with his van, or whatever the problem might be. However, when police arrived, the guy---maybe because he was sick, who knows---allegedly got belligerent with the cops, and they calmed him down...but many people were calling what was occurring a "standoff." It was hardly that; law enforcement was merely trying to help.Regardless, they were able to transport him to the hospital. Later, our correspondent saw a Lifeflight-like helicopter leaving the hospital. We don't know if the sick guy from the van was in it. We're attempting to find out. We don't really know what to make of it all...but at least dude's name isn't Charles Campion. We hope.We're also attempting to find out what caused the skid marks on the pavement in the below photo:
Our correspondent was told that those were there because someone attempted to “move the van.” We don’t know how that would create such marks unless someone pushed the van with another vehicle and it kind of skidded across the lot.
All in all, it’s been a weird day. We’ve got our correspondent on the lookout for the potential zombie apocalypse, while he’s at it there in tha ‘burg.
However, our next issue is DONE, and we’ll be delivering to North East Counties first tomorrow, then South Counties and North West Counties Tuesday. This issue is incredibly packed with the latest stuff….stuff you didn’t know….and some stuff even WE didn’t know until today…we’ll keep you updated on all of it, just keep checking back, and don’t miss the April-May 2012 issue, on stands beginning Monday, April 9!!
