Pennsylvania man allegedly shot and killed mother’s romantic fling mid-hookup in victim’s truck
A Pennsylvania son tired of his mom’s late-night rendezvous called the cops on himself and allegedly admitted to killing his mother’s romantic partner while the couple was “hooking up” in the victim’s truck on Saturday.
Dylan Lang, 24, was charged with homicide after he snapped when he found his mother fooling around with her lover, 55-year-old Robert Hagen Jr., and shot him in their driveway, police said.
Lang claimed his mother and Hagen were having sexual relations for several days. He told cops he finally spun “out of control” after the pair went out drinking on Friday evening and came back to continue their romp sesh outside the family home early in the morning, according to authorities.
Lang allegedly stormed outside with a 9mm handgun when he noticed the pair “hooking up” in Hagen’s truck, which was parked in the driveway of the family’s Jackson Township home — which he shares with his mother, her ex-fiancé, and two other relatives, police told Fox 5.
The fired-up son allegedly tried to point the firearm through the driver side window, but it wasn’t opened far enough. So, he shattered the rear window and allegedly fired two shots at Hagen through the back of the seat.
Hagen was fatally struck in the upper torso while attempting to back his truck out of the driveway. He lost control and the truck wound up rolling right into the front yard, police said.
All the while, Lang’s shaken mother, who was still inside the vehicle with Hagen, was reportedly screaming “You shot him!” at her son.
Lang, too, reportedly phoned 911 and told dispatchers, “I just shot someone in my driveway. I f–ked up.”
When police arrived at the grisly scene shortly before 4 a.m., they found Hagen inside the truck bloodied “with his pants around his ankles,” the outlet reported.
Lang is being held without bail at the Cambria County Prison on charges for criminal homicide, aggravated assault and reckless endangerment. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Oct. 27.
State police were called to lead an investigation into the shooting.
PHOENIXVILLE, Pa. (WPVI) — We are heading to Rivertown Taps in historic Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, to make a classic fan favorite, Caesar salad.
And when they say “taps,” they mean it.
There are dozens of drinks, beer and beyond, on tap at Phoenixville’s first self-serve drink tap wall.
“Phoenixville has always been a very beer-centric town, and we’re beer-centric people, so we wanted to have a really curated selection,” says Chef Owner Lewis Leiterman. “We have 36 drinks on tap.”
Just grab a charge card, choose your glassware and choose your own adventure.
“You pay for whatever you pour by the ounce,” says Leiterman. “You can pour as much or as little as you like.”
The building dates back to the 1800s, and Leiterman made sure to preserve pieces of that history, while bringing something super fresh to the strip.
“We make pastas from scratch,” he says. “We extrude all of our own pastas in house. We do all of our fresh-filled pastas all by hand. We make all our own breads. Everything that’s in here is from scratch.”
The mission includes a commitment to locally sourced food.
Today, we’re making a house favorite: the Caesar salad – with a twist.
“I hate chasing croutons around a salad, like, the fork never kind of sticks into it,” says Leiterman. “We still wanted that crunch factor, like the classic crouton, but different. What we did was we took some of our old bread and we kind of toasted it up and made a coarse panko texture.”
It’s becomes a universal crouton that makes its way throughout the salad.
“We like to feature seasonal vegetables in our Caesar salad, just for a little bit more flavor and nutrition,” says Leiterman.
He grills up some nice asparagus, and then adds some protein.
“I love a soft boiled egg on a salad to add more sustenance to a salad and a little bit of heartiness to it,” he says.
The build starts with a mix of greens, like red romaine and red watercress.
The dressing gets a gourmet kick.
“We do a black garlic and truffle Caesar,” he says. “We don’t like to overdress it. My pet peeve is those thick Caesar dressings.”
Add the asparagus to gently warm the salad, shave on some Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, add the soft boiled egg and finally, the breadcrumbs.

Fewer young adults reach major milestones as finances delay life plans
Fewer young adults in the U.S. are reaching traditional adulthood milestones, according to new U.S. Census Bureau data.
Benzinga – News
Pennsylvania’s over-65 population is growing faster than any other age group in the commonwealth, now making up more than one-fifth of the state’s residents, according to new U.S. Census Bureau data.
The federal agency estimates about 2.8 million Keystone State residents are 65 or older, an increase of about 13% since the last nationwide census was published in 2020.
Overall, the state’s population has remained stagnant at about 13 million since the last census. And many age groups — including children and younger adults — have actually declined in number over the past five years, according to the estimates released June 25.
The median age for a Pennsylvanian is now 41.4, compared to 41 in 2020.
How does Pa. compare to the rest of the U.S.?
Pennsylvania’s increase in older adults matches national trends, as the number of people 65 and older grew by about 9 million across the U.S. since 2020, the estimates suggest. As in the Keystone State, the population of people younger than 18 has fallen over the past several years, as did the number of people in midlife.
Overall, the nation’s population has climbed by an estimated 3.1%, or about 10.3 million people, since 2020.
However, Southern states showed more rapid growth that spanned all age categories, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
“The South stands out because it is seeing population gains in age groups that in other regions saw little change or are declining, reflecting its strong positive migration patterns this decade,” Lauren Bowers, a Census Bureau official, said in a statement.
What does the aging trend mean for Pa.?
Policymakers are working to prepare for Pennsylvania’s continued graying and the needs that will come along with these demographic shifts. By 2030, one in three commonwealth residents are projected to be over age 60, according to state officials.
But advocates stress the need for more resources to support Keystone State residents as they age, pointing to caregiver shortages and barriers to healthcare access in rural areas.
Gov. Josh Shapiro’s administration in 2024 released a 10-year plan for getting the state ready, laying out strategies for supporting people who want to age at home, expanding transportation options and increasing the number of caregivers.
