A Pennsylvania family dedicated to rescuing animals is left to pick up the pieces after a massive fire in their barn that killed some and left many unaccounted for. All that is left is a portion of the barn structure and rubble after the fire broke out just after 3 a.m. on Wednesday, May 28 at the House of Wiggle Goats in Lansdale. Someone driving along the Pennsylvania Turnpike saw the flames and called 911 to report the blaze, officials said.

The City of Philadelphia announced that changes are coming to Castor Avenue. "We want the street to be designed in a way that it's beautiful and accessible," said Andrew Simpson, Complete Streets District Manager for the City of Philadelphia. Officials plan on reconstructing the avenue because they said it's to improve the safety along the 1.7-mile stretch on Castor Avenue from North to Oxford Circle to Cottman Avenue, as part of the city's Vision Zero Action Plan.
