Connecticut Man Arrested in Chautauqua County for Alleged Threats of Violence to Elementary School

A man from Connecticut is in the Chautauqua County Jail after he allegedly threatened to commit acts of violence at an elementary school. The Chautauqua County Sheriff's Office says it was called on Tuesday to assist the Brattleboro Police Department in Vermont, who was actively searching for a person whom they allege contacted their office and made the threats to a school in that department's jurisdiction. An investigation found that 32-year-old Jacob Cunningham of Colchester, Connecticut allegedly made the threats while in the Town of Pomfret. Sheriff's deputies were able to locate and speak with Cunningham, and they took him into custody. Cunningham has been arraigned on charges of making a threat of mass harm and making a terroristic threat. He is being held on $250,000 cash bail or $500,000 property bond. According to the Sheriff's Office, there were no specific threats against any elementary schools in Chautauqua County.

Norwich Free Academy plans $2M football field, track renovation

While Norwich Free Academy has been in the process of updating its facilities, the school will soon start another update project. Head of School Nathan Quesnel formally announced the school’s plans to renovate the football field and track during the NFA Annual Corporator Meeting on Nov. 5. Work will begin after this school year’s graduation. The last time the field was updated was back in 1999, so the current field has “outlived its useful life,” Quesnel said. Other ongoing or completed NFA projects Quesnel highlighted include renovations to the cafeteria and Slater Hall and the creation of The Grid computer room in the library for the school’s e-sports team, which started the prior school year. What’s the plan? The new football field will features state of the art synthetic truth, a new track, a press box in the bleachers, new bathrooms, a new concession stand. This project will also include a new wildcat statue located on the other side of campus, where the historic beech tree once stood, Quesnel said. The project is expected to cost $2 million, which includes state funds. The school has also already secured a major donor to the project, Quesnel said. More: Norwich Free Academy
