millersville pa: Millersville University Lockdown - 04/01/08 05:34 PM
As I drove through Millersville, PA this morning, traffic was blocked on North George Street, the main thoroughfare past the University. There were several Millersville University police cars, a policewoman directing traffic, and what looked like a TV news crew truck.
