NORTH YORK, Pa. — Police have released updated photos of two suspects accused of stealing a road construction milling machine and driving it through a park, causing extensive damage earlier this week. The incident occurred around 4:30 a.m. on October 6, when two individuals reportedly stole the Wirtgen W50 DCi milling machine from a construction site at N. George St. and 8th Ave., authorities said.
