In Corry a clash near the Red Barn and City Park led to a swordfight between Peter Sanders II and Kevin J. Stoltz. Stoltz drew two swords, damaged Sanders’s truck, and caused police to detain and later release him with a summons. Separately, Penelec announced an amended payment due on bills starting in August for residential customers, with varying amounts and a broader rate increase beginning July 7. Taxpayers face higher costs as retroactive charges impact city, school district, and residents alongside upcoming rate changes.
