Investigators released surveillance images of two younger suspects and hope someone recognizes their clothing or association so the scooter can be safely returned. Community members with tips or video are urged to contact Detective Policano by email.

3.

The project, championed by state leaders including Rep. Joe Gresko of Stratford, will be funded by on-site solar panels and battery storage expected to generate millions and help stabilize electric costs.
4. Fact-checking Democrats calling Ryan Fazio's CT governor campaign ad misleading (ctpost.com) — A new fact-check digs into Democrat complaints that GOP gubernatorial nominee Ryan Fazio's ad misleads voters by featuring two longtime Republicans, including former Stratford council chair Jim Connor, under a banner about Democrats backing Fazio. Records confirm Connor's extensive Republican service in Stratford, while reviewers note the ad's wording could still leave viewers thinking all four speakers are Democrats.
