James Shelby, 21, of the 200 block of West Fairmount Avenue, had his preliminary hearing rescheduled for Wednesday, because Penn State University Police Investigator Ron Schreffler was not available to appear in court. Shelby is charged with possession with two counts of intent to deliver a controlled substance, and one count each of possession of a controlled substance, criminal use of a communication facility and criminal conspiracy.

Christopher Caster, 18, of Geary Hall, had his hearing delayed until March 9 to allow police to continue their investigation in his case. Caster is charged with two counts of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance and one count each of possession of a controlled substance and criminal use of a communication facility.
