YORK, Pa. — A York County sheriff’s deputy likely saved the life of a distraught teen who tried to jump from the seventh floor of the York County Judicial Center.
Deputy Mark Runkle was stationed on that floor, conducting security, about 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 8, when it happened, according to York County Sheriff Richard Keuerleber.
“He was at the right place at the right time,” Keuerleber said of Runkle.
