MOON TOWNSHIP, Pa. (KDKA) — The Pennsylvania man who was arrested in the Turks and Caicos Islands for possessing ammunition in his luggage returned home to western Pennsylvania on Friday.
Following a monthslong ordeal, Bryan Hagerich of Somerset County was given a suspended sentence of 52 weeks on Friday, allowing him to fly home after paying a $6,700 fine.
Hagerich landed at Pittsburgh International Airport on Friday at around 9:30 p.m. and hugged his children after stepping off the escalator to baggage claim. Hagerich held his children in the air for about 15 seconds before kneeling to embrace them.
“We have a lot of catching up to do, a lot of memories to make together,” Hagerich said. “Just so elated to see them. They’ve been so strong through all this.”
Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman and Rep. Guy Reschenthaler were also at the airport to greet the Pennsylvania man on Friday night. Fetterman and Reschenthaler were among a group of lawmakers who urged officials in the Turks and Caicos Islands to release the Americans held there.
Hagerich was arrested in February for having ammunition in his checked bag. He said he did not realize he left the rifle rounds in the bag.
Possessing a gun or ammunition is prohibited in Turks and Caicos, but tourists were previously often able to just pay a fine. In February, a court order mandated that even tourists in the process of leaving the country are subject to prison time. Hagerich pleaded guilty to possessing 20 rifle rounds.
There are four other Americans who are facing similar charges in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Haygrich hopes his case sets a precedent and those other Americans will be home soon.

Here’s when you should fill up your gas tank if you’re leaving the Pittsburgh area going on vacation
![Here’s when you should fill up your gas tank if you’re leaving the Pittsburgh area going on vacation](https://assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com/hub/i/r/2024/04/16/6cd9f1d3-89b9-411d-8fbb-1c3469814c2e/thumbnail/1200x630/f276d68316b8195353a610de7aef55c1/gettyimages-1359768273-1.jpg?v=d44ea471ad55b1f821a0763c85064960)
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — A major summer vacation expense is the money you spend on the gas you use to get to your destination.
Here are some ways you can save your vacation dollars.
The average price of a gallon of gas in Pittsburgh right now is $3.75 — and if you’re traveling, you can do better.
The rule of thumb when it comes to gas is to do your homework.
Patrick De Haan is the Head of Petroleum Analysis for Gas Buddy and he says he would fill up almost anywhere but Pittsburgh right now.
De Haan says that if you’re heading north, there are two stations on I-80 in a price war in Barkeyville at $3.09 per gallon, but in Grove City, gas is $3.89 per gallon.
“So again, an 80 cent per gallon difference and about 30 miles,” De Haan said. “It all depends on the route that you take.”
If you’re I-90 bound through Erie and beyond, you’ll want to get to Irving, New York, where on the Indian reservation, gas is $2.97 per gallon.
“But if you’re not on the Indian Reservation, be careful because right outside of that, $3.55 per gallon,” De Haan said.
Traveling east is certainly not cheap, but De Haan says there are some pockets of low gas prices in places like Breezewood.
It’s 20 cents more per gallon in the Harrisburg and Philadelphia areas, but if you can get across the state line into New Jersey, you’ll notice a big drop in prices.
Heading west from our area, cheaper gas isn’t too far away.
“When you just get into West Virginia, there is that snippet of West Virginia prices there,” De Haan said.
If you’re heading south, a tank of gas should get you to Wytheville, Virginia where prices under $3.00 per gallon are abundant.
Some of the cheapest prices heading south are in the Carolinas and De Haan says it’s all about planning your fuel stops.
De Haan suggests using apps like GasBuddy, Waze, Upside, or Google Maps to help you find the best price for gas along your route.
