It was a busy week for news in Hudson County, and our print editions — as well as this site as of Sunday — will have a lot of information. Here are some of the top stories for this weekend:
>In an update on the sad story of the 19-year-old woman who was killed in a car crash at the CSX rail tracks, her former teachers and her numerous friends talked about what she meant to them. Tyla Colilla was killed when she was a passenger in a car driven by a 20-year-old North Bergen man, Jessi A. Saquipulla. Saquipulla has been charged with Driving While Intoxicated and for having a controlled dangerous substance in the car. The matter will eventually be turned over from CSX police to the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office. Tyla Colilla is a recent North Bergen High School graduate.
>An anonymous Secaucus man did something for a Hoboken woman that made her day, and probably will make yours, too.
>In Union City, do you know anyone who wants to provide a good home for a historic one-ton 1927 linotype machine? The owner is moving his 130-year-old printing business to upstate New York, and may just take the machine with him if a museum doesn’t want to display it. Find out about how the printing business has changed over the years in our Union City and West New York editions.
>The petitions are in, and six people are running for mayor of Hoboken, but only five are officially vying next door in Jersey City, the second largest city in the state. Guess Jersey City is a little less fun to run than mile-square Hoboken!
