#4:39pm--#Stratford CT--Firefighters are on the way to Hollister Avenue near I-95 for a report of an outdoor odor of gas. Milford did call Stratford that they are tracking an odor of gas near I-95 but have not located the source.
A lot of suicide attempts in the area today. We won't report specifics but a Fairfield man today was rushed to the hospital after intentionally swallowing anti-freeze to end his life. Firefighters in Bridgeport cut down a person who attempted to hang themselves, performed CPR and saved their life. In one town a 13 year old was transported for evaluation for suicidal thoughts and in another town (towns intentionally not posted) another 13 year old intentionally attempted to overdose on her psychiatric medication. There appears to be an increase in psychiatric calls but earlier in November 2012 Governor Malloy cut $80 million to health and human services.

Baltimore MD--Under Proposed Bill, Students Who Form Finger In Shape Of Gun Would Not Be Suspended State Senator J.B. Jennings say he wants it to bring some common sense discipline to state schools. Last week Anne Arundel County school officials suspended 7-year-old Joshua Welch last week for eating a pastry in the shape of a gun. Senator Jennings said “These kids are 6 or 7 years old.

It bans school leaders from suspending students who make the shape of a gun with their fingers or food, or students who draw a gun on a piece of paper. …
