Here are some of the stories our team has been working on:
The deflategate report is out and the New England Patriots are not happy about what it says. The Florida man who sold guns to Aaron Hernandez gets two years in prison. A Boston high school teacher has been indicted for allegedly shooting a student after he reported low marijuana sales (seriously ... that’s not a joke). Is anyone surprised that the man accused of killing his parents in the Virgin Islands had a history of violence? A local police chief wasn’t surprised at all. Babe Ruth hit his first home run 100 years ago today. Students at Northeastern turned the campus into a video game this week. A suspect has been arrested for the building fire in Gardner yesterday. And the Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology lands Gov. Charlie Baker, R-MA, as its commencement speaker later this month.
