Bridge burning slowed Confederate advance
Bridge burning slowed Confederate advance: Stone piers in the Susquehanna River are all that's left of the old Wrightsville bridge, but back in 1863 it was pretty grand; the world's largest covered bridge, and the only bridge between Harrisburg and Maryland.

One charged in stabbing
On 5-20-13 at approximately 2:10 am, Columbia Police Officers encountered a stabbing
victim with wounds that resulted from a fight that just occurred in the 100 Block of S.
5th Street in Columbia Borough. While on routine patrol, Officer Brent Smith heard a
disturbance and noticed two males walking near 5th and Union Streets. Officer Smith
approached the males and noticed that one of the males had suffered multiple stab
wounds to his abdomen, was severely bleeding, and was being assisted by the second
male. Officer Smith was told that the wounded male had just engaged in a fight with an
acquaintance and suffered the stab wounds as a result. The suspect was no longer on
scene. EMS personnel were summoned to the scene and transported the victim to a
local hospital for treatment.
A second stabbing victim was located in the 100 Block of S. 5th Street at his residence.
This male was at the scene of the fight, but the nature of his involvment is not clear at
this time. He suffered at least one wound to his lower right leg. His wounds were not
life threatening.
