Northern Liberties Trolley Accident, Women Religious Vatican Protest, NJ-CA Marijuana Bust

A man is in critical condition after being struck by a trolley in Northern Liberties on Tuesday night. The incident happened at Front Street and Girard Avenue. The 57-year-old man was transported to Hahnemann Hospital with a head trauma.

The incident is under investigation.

Dozens of Catholics gathered in Sister Cities Park for a vigil to protest the Vatican's crackdown on the women religious. The vigil is just one of dozens of protests nationwide. Last month, the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith directed the Leadership Conference of Women Religious to reform its rules and programming to better conform to the doctrines of the Church. Some say the Women Religious group does not adequately promote the church’s positions on a number of issues including abortion, women’s ordination and homosexuality.

Authorities say a California man shipped about 250 pounds of high-grade marijuana — valued at $1 million — to a public storage facility in South Jersey. 55-year-old Thomas Arnold of Santa Barbara was arrested last week after a cargo container with 15 large boxes of marijuana inside arrived at the facility in Delran, NJ. He is charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and remains jailed in New Jersey on $250,000 cash bail.
