ORANGE STREET NEWS
EXCLUSIVE: MURDER ON NINTH STREET!
By Hilde Kate Lysiak
Police are investigating a possible murder at 9th Street in Selinsgrove
A man is suspected of murdering his wife with a hammer at 9th Street in Selinsgrove, sources told the Orange Street News.
Law enforcement sources will not confirm.
“This is an ongoing investigation,” an officer told the Orange Street News.
Residents reported seeing a person taken out on a stretcher but were told by police not to talk to media.
“They told us we can’t talk about anything,” one neighbor told the Orange Street News.
The woman is a former Selinsgrove borough employee. Many neighbors remembered her fondly.
“This is terrible. Just terrible,” one neighbor told the OSN. “I can’t believe this happened. She was such a wonderful woman. Very kind.”
The suspected murdered was a retired school teacher at Selinsgrove and the victim also worked as branch manager at a local bank manager on Market Street, according to neighbors.
“They seemed like a good, loving couple,” one neighbor told the Orange Street News. “I’m just in shock.”
The Chief of police, District Attorney, PA State police, and Coroner are on the scene.
The Orange Street News is withholding the name of the victim to make sure friends and family are told first.

Hilde included a photo of the crime scene with the police crime scene investigation van parked in front.
Looks to me like a pretty good job of reporting. But was the local media ever pissed off. They had been out-scooped by a nine-year-old.
And when the story of her scoop hit the internet, Hilde was hit with a barrage of criticism on social media.
Some assholes expressed their disgust at a nine-year-old covering a serious crime story.
Other assholes told Hilde she should “be playing with dolls” instead of publishing a newspaper.
To all those assholes I say, Fuck you!
