• Simsbury Arrest Logs: May 19 - May 27, 2026 (patch.com) — Simsbury residents can review the latest police arrest log covering May 19–27, including a Simsbury man charged with first-degree larceny by extortion. The report, based on Simsbury Police and state court records, lists each suspect’s charges, residence, and upcoming court dates while stressing that all charges are allegations, not convictions.
• Simsbury High students create documentary on AAPI experiences in Connecticut (nbcconnecticut.com) — Simsbury High School students have produced “Make Us Count,” a documentary highlighting Asian American and Pacific Islander experiences in Connecticut, sparked by their own school data. Guided by teacher Michelle Henry, they interviewed more than 40 students, community members, and leaders, including Attorney General William Tong, to explore representation, the model minority myth, and how data shapes public policy and visibility.
• Where are police FLOCK cameras in CT? I-Team dives into search data (wfsb.com) — Simsbury police now limit who can search their six Flock license plate cameras, after a new Connecticut law tightened rules on data sharing and banned immigration-related searches. Lt. Gregory Samselski says the system has helped solve hit-and-runs and domestic violence cases, and the department now conducts bi‑monthly audits and requires more specific reasons for any search, especially from out‑of‑state agencies.
