John Nelson+FollowErie priest sidelined amid raffle scandalA longtime Erie priest has been pulled from his duties after new details surfaced in a criminal probe over a questionable car raffle at St. Jude the Apostle Church. Father Ross Miceli is now on administrative leave, just as he was about to start new assignments in Clearfield County. The investigation alleges Miceli may have faked the raffle winner and misused church funds. While he hasn’t been charged, the move aims to protect parish communities and ensure a fair investigation. How do you think this impacts trust in local church leadership? #Religion #Erie #CommunityNews00Share
Brooke Martin+FollowErie’s beef prices hit all-time highBeef lovers in Erie are feeling the pinch—local butchers like Urbaniak Brothers have had to raise prices by as much as 18% on some cuts in just six months. It’s not just a local thing: nationwide, beef is the most expensive it’s ever been, thanks to fewer cattle and ongoing tariffs. Even longtime customers are noticing the difference, but many say they’ll stick with quality local shops. There’s hope prices might dip later this year, but with the holidays coming, demand could push them right back up. How are you adjusting your grocery habits with these changes? #Business #Industry #Erie00Share
