Bensalem man held on $1M bail in child pornography case

A Bensalem man is being held at the Bucks County Correctional Facility on $1 million bail after investigators uncovered disturbing content involving child pornography. John Breslin, 42, of Kingston Way, is accused of using social media platforms over several months to share and receive graphic material featuring children as young as four being sexually assaulted. Bensalem Township Police executed a search warrant at his home on Wednesday, uncovering digital evidence and message threads where Breslin and others allegedly discussed fantasies involving minors. He has been charged with dissemination and possession of child pornography, as well as criminal use of a communication facility. He was arraigned by Magisterial District Judge Joseph P. Falcone.

Middletown Police: 80% of child car seats improperly installed

Middletown Township Police are urging parents to double-check their car seat setups, citing widespread errors in installation. Officer Melissa Robison, who handles community outreach, says roughly 80% of child safety seats are installed incorrectly, posing serious risks in a crash. She emphasized the importance of ensuring the seat is tightly secured with no movement and warned that car seats involved in any collision — major or minor — should be replaced, as internal damage is often invisible. Robison recommended visiting SafeKids.org to find certified technicians who can help families install seats properly.

Bristol Borough faces uphill battle on Green Lane flooding

Persistent flooding on Green Lane in Bristol Borough — especially at the underpass during heavy rain — remains a serious concern, and borough officials say state support will be crucial to fixing it. A study is underway to evaluate potential solutions, including installing gates and upgrading stormwater infrastructure. However, Amanda Branco Fuller, senior project manager at Gilmore & Associates, said PennDOT has indicated the responsibility lies with the borough, despite the flooding occurring on a state road. “We do not agree with that,” Fuller stated. PennDOT is, however, open to backing a state grant application, which may be the borough’s best shot at securing the funding needed for long-term fixes.
