Southwest Philly Hit and Run, Royalty Gold Plated China, 84 Year Old Leap Baby Turns 21

Philadelphia Police are looking for the driver responsible for a hit-and-run that sent one man to the hospital Sunday night. It happened just before 8 p.m. near 65th and Grays Avenue in Southwest Philadelphia. Police say a driver smashed into another car and then ran away.
The driver of the other vehicle was rushed to the hospital in stable condition. Anyone with information should contact police as the investigation continues.

The royal household is celebrating Queen Elizabeth’s 90th birthday by releasing an official range of hand-made, gold-plated china. The commemorative range includes mugs, teacups, saucers and plates. The most expensive item — a large plate — retails for £89 ($124). The items go on sale Monday, though Queen Elizabeth’s actual birthday is on April 21. Meanwhile, her birthday is officially celebrated by the nation in June because that month tends to get the best weather, making it more enjoyable to watch the queen’s birthday parade. The china was produced by 50 workers “using methods and techniques that have remained unchanged for 250 years,” according to an official statement from the Royal Collection Trust, a department of the royal household. The Royal Collection Trust, which is a registered charity, manages the vast royal art collection and the queen’s official residences. It frequently produces crockery to commemorate important royal occasions. Monarchy fans can buy the china on the Royal Collection website , or in gift shops next to certain British palaces and castles. Limited edition items will also be sold in the coming months.

Most people get to celebrate a birthday every year, but not 84-year-old Paul Knebels. He was born February 29th – which comes only once every four years, and his family in Bucks County decided to celebrate the special day. “Legally able to have a drink,” Paul joked.
He’s been alive since 1932, but technically this is only the 21st birthday for the Leap Year baby. Friends and family helped him celebrate in Warminster by playing some pool and having a few beverages with Paul. Paul says two of his favorite birthdays were when he and his son both turned eight the same year and when he and his grandson both turned 15 the same year.
