It's a busy day here in the PE newsroom. A look at what we're working on:
* Children & Youth workers visit a home and discover a meth lab inside. Four babies have been taken into custody from the place, and one man is still on the lam as police investigate. Michael Lester and Kristin Baver are both working on the story. We'll have more to come.
* A would-be burglar trying to get into a building fails in his attempt to escape after police spot his SUV. See what we have so far and look for Julye Wemple's full report tomorrow.
* A former caretaker for a 92-year-old woman is caught with some of the nonagenarian's possessions in the trunk of her car. Reporter Susan Schwartz has more.
* Fourteen of the 17 Danville High students arrested in a post-prom party bust say they want hearings on their charges. Chris Krepich has the rest of the story.
* A former BU field hockey player involved in another woman's beating downtown is back in court hoping to avoid jail. Find out what a judge had to say.
* Plus, another pedestrian is struck near the same Main Street intersection that was the site of a hit-and-run accident that injured a woman earlier this spring. Town reporter Pete Kendron has more.
