The event is prompting increased coordination among city officials, law enforcement, and the Reading Parking Authority. The arena opens to the public at 3 p.m., with Trump speaking at 7 p.m.

Upper Pottsgrove Man Halts Sentencing, Withdraws Guilty Plea in Stolen Gun Case

Nickolas O. Newton, a man from Upper Pottsgrove Township, paused his sentencing hearing by expressing doubts about his earlier guilty plea to charges of possessing a stolen handgun. The judge allowed Newton to withdraw the plea, rescheduling his trial for October 15. Newton, 29, was stopped by police in October 2022, and a stolen firearm was found in his vehicle. He faces a possible prison sentence of more than ten years if convicted.
