We just might have to start that secret handshake down here. See what Lil Orphan Annie says. Duct tape the green shirts to the telephone poles. ;D Wiskey Tango Foxtrot did they expect. Start wackin the hornets nest but no responce from the bee's. This might be the funniest article so far this year.

I just finally got around to reading the article, and - as many of you may suspect - it's probably either a fake or severe embellishment of an actual incident.
I lived in Cambria County for a while when I was much younger, and in later years worked mutual investigations and trained with/provided training to many of the local police in that county. A legitimate article would have likely referred to local police together as the "Mainline" group, and the article as a whole seems to be rather a fanciful tale.
THAT SAID: it wouldn't surprise me if the basic outcome would be the same or similar IF an actual event happened there. That area has 4 common and abundant qualities: 1. Mafia country 2. Outlaw biker affiliations 3. Coal miners/steel mill workers 4. Strong and traditional ethnic practices (= "do it like in the old country")
There have indeed been some rather strange and outlandish events happen there. Some that I know to be true and have made national headlines over the years include:
1. A county judge (Okicki) who made a practice of running around in his chambers, courtrooms, and elsewhere in his underwear propositioning any female present
2. A borough (Portage) that used a town dump truck for patrol when the town council wouldn't authorize repairs for any of their police cruisers
3. A multiple-fatality shootout (Mundys Corner) between undercover local and state police, federal agents, mafia members, and just ordinary armed citizens that took almost 1/2 a year just to determine who was who.
I often said you could write a bestseller book or create a popular movie that is completely factual in every detail about these and other events - and no one would believe it was all from true stories.
