📰 News we're reading

• Berlin Police Logs: Sept. 1 to Sept. 15, 2026 (patch.com) — Berlin residents can now see the latest police arrest log covering Sept. 1–15, detailing a range of charges from larceny and disorderly conduct to DUI and organized retail theft. All listed charges are allegations, not convictions, but the report offers a clear snapshot of recent public safety activity affecting local neighborhoods and nearby towns.
   

• Berlin students have mixed state test results (bristolpress.com) — Berlin families are seeing mixed state test results this year, with some grades and schools improving in English and math while others slipped, even as SAT scores rose in both subjects. District leaders say Berlin generally remains above state averages, especially in grade 11 science, and are rolling out new data and support systems to close gaps and reduce absenteeism.
   

• Local Roundup: Berlin girls soccer notches first win of season (newbritainherald.com) — Berlin High's girls soccer team finally broke through at home, shutting out Maloney 5–0 behind two goals from Payton Demko and a combined shutout in net. The roundup also checks in on nearby Southington and Innovation teams, but Berlin's first win and upcoming road match against E.O. Smith are the key takeaways for local fans.
