Hello, people of Sachem! Andrew Tessler here with your Monday copy of the Sachem Daily.

First, today's weather:

A morning flurry; some sun. High: 33 low: 25.

Here are the top 3 stories in Sachem today:

  1. Suffolk arrest report: Jan. 23. With the rapid increase of crime on Long Island, make sure you stay up to date with the Suffolk Arrest Report. Remember to lock your doors, and never leave your car running with the keys inside as car thefts and burglaries have risen sharply. Check out all the recent arrests in our area and throughout Long Island here. (Sachem Patch)
  2. ICYMI: DA forms Gang and Gun Violence Bureau in Suffolk. As gun and gang violence continues to be on the rise on Long Island, Suffolk County has formed a new bureau to tackle the issue. The Violent Criminal Enterprises Bureau will "combat gun violence and criminal activity perpetrated by gangs and criminal organizations operating in Suffolk," DA Tierney's office said. It will use multiple investigative strategies, including sophisticated crime scene and data analysis "to build successful conspiracy and enterprise corruption cases against offenders" to "incapacitate and dismantle" the "violent enterprises," Tierney's office stated in a news release. (Sachem Patch)
  3. Sachem weekly weather forecast. Plan your week accordingly with the weekly weather report. We are closely monitoring a potential snowstorm this weekend, with high accumulation possible late Friday into Saturday. Our pick of the week is Tuesday, where temperatures will be in the 40s.
