A “medical emergency” drew a heavy police presence to a Patton Township Sheetz and forced the store to temporarily close on Thursday morning, according to the township’s police chief.
A male was taken to Mount Nittany Medical Center by ambulance after police responded at about 7:15 a.m. to the Sheetz at 101 Valley Vista Drive, Chief Tyler Jolley wrote in a press release.
Centre County Coroner Scott Sayers confirmed to StateCollege.com later on Thursday that a death was involved and that his office responded. He called it “an isolated incident” and said there was no threat to the public, but referred further questions to Patton Township police.
Jolley declined additional comment.
“We are not releasing anything more at this time,” Jolley wrote in an email response to a request for further information on Thursday morning.
A Sheetz spokesperson said he could not provide details about the incident, but that the company is providing mental health resources and support to those who may have been affected.
The store reopened and resumed normal operations on Thursday morning.
After first responders arrived and the store’s parking lot was closed off, State College Area School District sent a message to families advising that there was no threat to nearby schools.
“As some of you are aware, there was an incident at the Valley Vista Sheetz this morning that required a heavy presence of first responders,” Nabil Mark, SCASD media and communications manager, wrote. “We have been in direct contact with the Patton Township Police Department, who has assured us that there is no danger to any of our schools and all of our students are safe.”
This story will be updated as more information becomes available.
