A Washington County man was arrested after Heidelberg police said they saw him and another person “bent over snorting a white substance” in a parked car. Police said they saw Samuel E. Markish III, 24, of Smith Township, apparently using drugs with another while in the Walgreens parking lot in the early hours of Nov. 25.

Construction on the Walgreens planned for the former Shoppes on Bower Hill has “stalled” and Scott Township officials aren’t sure why.
