• Man arrested on fugitive warrant in Jericho (newportdispatch.com) — Vermont State Police arrested a Jericho resident on River Road Wednesday morning on a long-standing New Hampshire fugitive warrant. Troopers say the man, wanted since 2016 on serious felony charges, was taken into custody without incident and is being held without bail pending arraignment. Police credit intelligence from New Hampshire authorities for locating him in town.
