ERIE, Pa. (WJAC) — A news anchor and reporter told state police she had become the target of a stalker who progressed from text messages and phone calls to a handwritten note that was slid under her apartment door and sending flowers to her office at the television station.
But Pennsylvania State Police now believe it was all fabricated.
Haley Potter, 24, of WICU-TV/WSEE-TV in Erie, faces felony and other criminal charges as a result of months worth of tales, according to Erie Times-News.

NEW YORK (AP) — The first-place New York Mets added some much-needed punch at designated hitter Friday, acquiring Daniel Vogelbach from the Pittsburgh Pirates in a trade for rookie reliever Colin Holderman.
The burly Vogelbach, a left-handed hitter and an All-Star in 2019 with Seattle, was batting .228 with 12 home runs, 34 RBIs and a .769 OPS in 75 games for the rebuilding Pirates.
