Power Outages; Beer Bottle Thrown at Ryan Howard; Tainted Water Investigation Near Air Bases

Utility crews are restoring service after strong storms swept through New Jersey downing branches, trees and power lines. South Jersey was the hardest hit, especially areas like West Deptford and Washington Township. Atlantic City Electric said nearly 19,000 homes and businesses were without power at the height of the storm, mostly in Gloucester and Salem counties.

Philadelphia police are looking for the Phillies fan who threw a beer bottle at Ryan Howard after he grounded out to end the game Saturday night in a loss to the Brewers at Citizens Bank Park. The bottle did not hit Howard but commented that he’s done too much in Philadelphia for that kind of stuff.

Congressman Brendan Boyle is calling for a federal investigation into tainted water near former naval air stations here. He hopes congress will force testimony from experts on perfluorinated compounds, the Navy and the Environmental Protection Agency. Perfluorinated compounds, commonly used in firefighting foams at the air stations at Willow Grove and Warminster have been linked to cancer and reproductive problems and were found in drinking water near the bases in 2014.
