Good morning, Lancaster.

On March 23, Lancaster Township Police responded to a noise complaint at 1030 Clark Street where they found 20-year-old Domenic Soto in possession of marijuana and under the influence—Soto fled in his vehicle, which became disabled at the intersection of N.

Plum and E. Walnut Streets, and after a brief foot pursuit, he was arrested with a preliminary hearing set for March 28 and $15,000 bail.

Police in Lancaster County investigated a shots fired incident in the 100 block of Westpointe Lane in Ephrata Borough on Saturday, March 22 at 6:24 p.m. when a resident discharged a round while trying to fix a gun malfunction from an earlier range visit; no one was injured and the District Attorney’s Office said charges are forthcoming.

WalletHub released its 2025 Most & Least Innovative States study on March 19th and ranked Pennsylvania 29th out of 50 for innovation—mainly due to lower STEM job demand and tech business growth.

Experts said strong innovation ecosystems help states attract top talent and investment, showing a need for public private partnerships to boost competitiveness.
