DURYEA -- For one man in Luzerne County, thanks to the Duryea Police, he just got a life sentence...willingly!
Yes, you read that right...and some might say it was a crime of passion.
Thanks to some ingenious planning -- and a little assistance from Chief Lohman, Officer Swisher, and Officer Dunn -- Mike Stacey's arrest brought him to his knee...one knee!
Stacey plotted with the personnel from the Duryea Police Department and set up a staged arrest at the Germania Hose Company, where Stacey was frisked, read his rights and patiently waited for his soon-to-be betrothed, Amanda Torres, to come out from their vehicle to witness the proposal.
DISCLAIMER: Unedited Facebook video contains a little "bad" language from a very shocked bride-to-be!
Best wishes and congratulations are in order for the couple -- and thanks to a little help from those men and women in uniform, the bride-to-be already has "something blue" checked off her list!

Enough whining…it is obvious you are not a tax payer…let me guess you probably live at home with mom and dad…or you sponge off the government with section 8…which is it…because if you are a tax payer this nonsene would irritate you.
dereliction of duty
My taxes just went to this? These officer’s town has no drug problem they should be combating instead? Well fine then, I want to borrow these cops to do my divorce this way for me too!

Beat the guy like a real State Police arrest.

This a a waste of municipal resources and there should be an investigation initiated.
Enough Whining
Yeah Jughead, we know. If they were out enforcing traffic laws you’d complain about that. If they were arresting someone for a crime you’d find something else to complain about.
Your incessant whining and complaining is ridiculous. How can someone go through life as miserable as you are?

I give them 6 months

If we’re lucky…
no ma'am
She’s probably already slammin’ one of those cops. This guy is stupid!
