BEAVER FALLS (KDKA) – A team of 11 engineers will use heavy machinery to knock down blighted properties in Beaver Falls this week as part of an initiative to revitalize the area.
“This week we’ll do four total,” said Staff Sgt. Kevin Gendall. “It’s a good idea and it helps prevent drug use.”
The Pennsylvania National Guard arrived in the city on Monday for a week-long demolition effort.
