PA Radio: Woman Arrested For Driving Into iHM Building

Williamsport Sun-Gazette

A woman who reportedly frequently called a disc jockey on a Williamsport radio station is accused of ramming a rental car into the station's building and trying to set it on fire.

Crystal Michele Glantz, 30, was arraigned Thursday on arson, criminal mischief and drunken driving charges and committed to the Lycoming County Prison in lieu of $25,000 bail.

According to pennlive.com, she is accused of driving a car on March 5 into the building that houses five iHeartmedia radio stations, including WRAK 1400 AM and WKSB 102.7 KISS FM.

A neighbor told police she saw an individual set fire to the car's back seat just before 11 p.m. on March 5. Investigators said there were fire starters, charcoal briquettes and an empty plastic gasoline can on the backseat.

Glantz was taken into custody at the scene and transported to the DUI processing center where her blood alcohol level was determined to be .167, which is twice the legal limit for driving, the arrest affidavit states. She had been free until her arrest Thursday.

Damage to the building and car was estimated at nearly $19,000, according to the affidavit.

The disc jockey who Glantz is alleged to have called was no longer employed at the station and had moved out of the area, police said.
