Today's riddle: What is the difference between black eyed peas and chick peas? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Man Accused Of Recording Woman In City Hall Restroom Arrested: Norwalk Police (patch.com) — Norwalk police say a New Canaan man was arrested after investigators used City Hall security footage to identify a suspect accused of secretly recording a woman in a restroom stall. The U.S. Marshals Service located him in the Bronx, and Norwalk officers extradited him back to the city, where he faces a voyeurism with malice charge and a $50,000 bond.
2. Norwalk Home With 'Stunning Waterfront Setting' Listed For Sale (patch.com) — A luxury home at 64 Shorefront Park in Norwalk is listed for $2.85 million, offering its own sandy beach and expansive waterfront views. The classic Colonial sits in a shoreline neighborhood that highlights Norwalk's coastal lifestyle and access to the water.
3. $36M In HVAC Improvements Completed At 6 Norwalk Schools (patch.com) — Six Norwalk schools, including Brien McMahon High and several elementary schools, just finished $36 million in HVAC upgrades ahead of the 2026-27 school year, improving comfort and air quality for students and staff. Backed by state reimbursement covering much of the cost, the work adds full-building air conditioning in some schools and upgraded systems in others, including the city's emergency shelter gym.
4. Norwalk launches transparency portal for Flock license plate readers amid privacy concerns (nhregister.com) — Norwalk police have launched an online transparency portal explaining how their Flock license plate reader cameras work, what data is collected, and how often officers search it. While officials say the system helps find stolen cars and missing people, some Norwalk residents argue it amounts to mass surveillance and want clearer access to audit logs—or the cameras removed altogether.
5. Norwalk prize insurance businessman pleads guilty to defrauding dozens of organizations (ctpost.com) — A Norwalk man who ran a prize insurance company has admitted in federal court to wire fraud after prosecutors said he failed to pay out hundreds of thousands of dollars in promised prizes. Authorities say he used aliases, bogus legal threats, and an unlicensed operation to mislead mostly charitable and civic groups, and now faces a potential lengthy prison sentence.
