Code Blue extended in Scranton

The City of Scranton has extended its Code Blue alert to help people displaced from St. Anthony’s Haven.

The overnight emergency shelter run by Keystone Mission at Weston Field House will remain open through Thursday, Dec. 29 after a sprinkler pipe burst inside the building that houses St. Anthony’s Haven, another emergency shelter in the city. There was significant water damage.

St. Anthony’s Haven is shut down for repairs. Keystone Mission and the City of Scranton will evaluate the situation later in the week to determine if Weston Field House will need to remain open through the weekend.
