#Fairfield CT– On 06-18-19 at about 1:45 PM, an officer was flagged down by an employee of Bob’s Stores who pointed out a vehicle that was fleeing from a shoplifting that just occurred at the store. The officer attempted to conduct a traffic stop when the suspect engaged the officer in pursuit for a short distance before stopping. When the officer attempted to make contact with the lone female operator, later identified as Lisa M. Briggs of Stratford, she rammed his police car and then fled the scene nearly striking the officer. She came so close to striking the officer that he had to push off the hood to avoid being struck by the vehicle. The officer did not suffer any injuries.

 

A broadcast describing the vehicle was issued to neighboring agencies and a Stratford Police Narcotics Unit located Briggs and the Honda in the Donut Inn parking lot located at 1827 Boston Av. Bridgeport, CT. Fairfield Police Detectives responded and were able to positively identify Lisa Briggs as the sole occupant and operator of the Honda Accord. The stolen merchandise and drug paraphernalia were recovered from the Honda.

 

Lisa M. Briggs (DOB: 09/28/1976) of 2983 Main St. Stratford, CT was arrested for Criminal Attempt to Assault a Police Officer, Interfering with a Police Officer, Larceny in the 6th Degree, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Reckless Driving, and Engaging Officers in Pursuit, after Briggs allegedly stole $436.50 worth of merchandise from Bob’s Store located at 889 Post Road. She was held on a $25,000.00 bond and ordered to appear in Bridgeport Superior Court on 07-02-19. Briggs was also issued a Misdemeanor Summons for Unsafe start, Evading Responsibility, and Operating a Motor Vehicle without a License for a collision that occurred with another vehicle in her attempt to flee.

 

“We are grateful that the officer was not injured as a result of the suspect’s reckless behavior. We would also like to thank the Stratford Police Department for their assistance in this investigation, which ultimately led to the location and arrest of the suspect.” –Captain Robert Kalamaras.

Senator Murphy Wants Smart Guns

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) this week introduced the Start Advancing Firearms Enhancements and Technology (SAFETY) Act, legislation that would provide tax incentives to small businesses and firearm manufacturers for the development of smart gun technologies. The bill also encourages consumers to buy firearms that utilize new breakthroughs in safety to reduce gun violence. U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) is a co-sponsor of the legislation. U.S. Representative Jim Himes (CT-4) introduced the companion bill in the U.S. House of Representatives.

“Smart guns are an innovative way to control who has access to your gun. If I can use my finger or face to unlock my cell phone, then firearm manufacturers can be innovative in using technology to secure guns. We know that safely securing guns will cut down on suicides and accidental deaths, especially among children. I’m going to keep doing everything I can to offer proposals that can help save as many lives as possible,” said Murphy.

“Our bill incentivizes advancements in safe gun technology that will save lives. Safe gun technology has already created locks that prevent accidental shootings and fingerprint scans that disable firearms for anyone but their lawful owners. The firearm industry and responsible gun owners should already be embracing these kinds of innovations. With our bill, small businesses and manufacturers will have even more incentive to harness the power of American innovation and create smarter, safer firearms,” said Blumenthal.

Since his time in the Senate, Murphy has been a vocal critic of our nation’s gun laws. In January, Murphy reintroduced the Background Check Expansion Act to expand federal background checks to the sale or transfer of all firearms by private sellers, with certain reasonable exceptions. Murphy also joined U.S. Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) to introduce the Automatic Gun Fire Prevention Act, a bill to close a loophole that allows people to use bump-stocks to turn semi-automatic weapons to automatic weapons, and the Assault Weapons Ban of 2019, a bill to ban the sale, transfer, manufacture and importation of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines. Murphy also co-authored the bipartisan Fix NICS Act with U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas), which improves federal and state reporting of relevant criminal history records to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System and was signed into law last year.

Fairfield-Bridgeport News: Pursuit

Here is the FULL police report. Note in my initial report that “The car had plates on it that didn’t belong on that car according to radio reports’ Sha’Quinn Jamair Johnson (DOB 07/29/1998) was arrested and issued Misdemeanor Summons charging him with Operating Under Suspension 14-215 and Engaging In Pursuit 14-223(b) after Johnson engaged Officers in pursuit on Commerce Drive into Bridgeport while driving with a suspended license.

While on routine patrol in the area of Commerce Drive and Coolidge Street I observed a vehicle get off exit 25 of I95 North. The vehicle quickly drove past Officer Griffin and I who were located at the bottom of the exit ramp. I attempted to run the vehicle’s registration through collect but I was only briefly able to see the vehicle’s registration. My initial COLLECT check was of CT AD17153 which returned that the registration was expired and cancelled on a 2002 black Chevrolet Malibu. I then attempted to position my patrol vehicle behind the vehicle. As soon as my patrol vehicle got behind the suspect vehicle the vehicle rapidly accelerated East on Commerce Drive toward Bridgeport. The vehicle quickly accelerated away from my patrol vehicle upon me entering the roadway behind it. Believing the vehicle to be the Chevrolet Malibu with the cancelled Connecticut registration AD17153 I activated my patrol vehicle’s overhead lights and emergency siren in an attempt to stop the vehicle. There were no other vehicles traveling on Commerce Drive and the suspect vehicle continued to accelerate East on Commerce Drive making no attempt to pull over.

The vehicle continued East on Commerce Drive into Bridgeport. The vehicle continued East on State Street where I was able to close distance on the vehicle. The vehicle weaved around a vehicle at the traffic signal located at State Street and Dewey Street. While aneuvering the vehicle the operator, later identified as Sha’Quinn Johnson, struck the rear left tire of his vehicle on the center median

of the roadway damaging its wheel and flattening the tire. The vehicle then turned West onto Fairfield Avenue. I was able to clearly read the vehicle’s registration CT AU17153 which was registered on a black 2000 Buick Regal LS. CT AU17153 quickly accelerated West on Fairfield Avenue there were several vehicles traveling on the roadway and rainy weather conditions.

Officer Griffin and Bridgeport Officer Topolski had arrived and were assisting in the pursuit. CT AU17153 then turned onto Orland Street and then turned again onto Wakeman Street. The vehicle then turned onto Burr Court and then onto Burr Road traveling South back towards Fairfield Avenue. The pursuit was then terminated by Fairfield Police. I deactivated my patrol vehicle’s emergency lights and siren and informed Fairfield ECC that the vehicle continued traveling South on Burr Road. Bridgeport Officer Topolski then maneuvered hispatrol vehicle around mine and onto Orland Street where the suspect vehicle had now stopped and the sole occupant,

Sha’Quinn, had exited the vehicle and attempted to flee on foot. Officer Topolski exited his patrol vehicle and began to pursue the operator on foot through the back yards of several house located on Orland Street Officer Griffin and I exited our patrol vehicles to assist and gave chase on foot. Officer Griffin and I exited the yards on to Burr Road where I observed that Sha’Quinn had now entered a red Chevrolet sedan and was now seated in the rear left seat of that vehicle, KY 950YTM. The vehicle was also occupied by its operator, Shelby Johnson. Bridgeport Officer Topolski gave verbal commands to the occupants of the vehicle while Officer Griffin and I provided cover. I handcuffed Sha’Quinn and searched his person but located nothing. Officer Mirra arrived on scene and I placed Sha’Quinn in the rear of his patrol vehicle.

I then read Sha’Quinn his Miranda Rights and he stated that he understood them. He stated that he ran from police because his license was suspended and that he was scared of the police. He explained that he just happened to see his mother driving down Burr Road and asked her to let him in the vehicle. Sha’Quinn was NCIC/ PRAWN negative with a suspended license as of 04/04/2018. He was SPRC positive. Sha’Quinn had pending court proceedings for violations of C.G.S 29-38 Weapon In A Motor Vehicle, 53a-217c Criminal Possession of a Firearm and 53a-48/53a-123 Conspiracy to Commit Larceny 2nd Degree. He had a court date for the next day (06/19/2019).

Officer Wells and Gorton arrived on scene and conducted a search of CT AU17153 and the path of the foot pursuit but no contraband was located. See Officer Wells’ supplement.

I then spoke with Shelby Johnson, Sha’Quinn’s mother and the other occupant of the vehicle that Sha’Quinn got into after fleeing on foot. Shelby stated that she lives around the corner and heard the sirens. She stated that she was headed to the gas station on the corner of Fairfield Avenue and Burr Road to check on what was going on. She stated that while traveling down Burr Road her son Sha’Quinn ran out from between several houses and to her car asking her to let him in. Shelby stated that she was unsure why her son was running from police and explained that Sha’Quinn is afraid of the police and had a court date the following day.

Sport Hill was detailed to the scene and towed CT AU17153. Bridgeport Officer Topolski provided BPT PD file #19-53455 for Bridgeport P.D. assistance with the pursuit. Sha’Quinn was transported to Fairfield Police Headquarters by Officer Mirra. After arriving at Fairfield Police Headquarters Officer Mirra and I processed Sha’Quinn.

El vehículo pasó rápidamente junto al oficial Griffin y yo que estábamos ubicados en la parte inferior de la rampa de salida. Intenté ejecutar el registro del vehículo a través de la recogida, pero sólo pude ver brevemente el registro del vehículo. Mi cheque COLLECT inicial fue de CT AD17153 que devolvió que el registro había expirado y cancelado en un 2002 negro Chevrolet Malibu. Luego intenté colocar mi vehículo de patrulla detrás del vehículo. Tan pronto como mi vehículo de patrulla se puso detrás del vehículo sospechoso el vehículo rápidamente aceleró hacia el este en Commerce Drive hacia Bridgeport. El vehículo rápidamente se aceleró lejos de mi vehículo de patrulla sobre mí entrando en la carretera detrás de ella.

“As You Like It” Performance

The Stratford Library, 2203 Main Street, announces that the Hudson Shakespeare Company of New Jersey will return to Stratford on Saturday, June 29 for its production of “As You Like It”.  Performed outside in the library’s scenic back courtyard, the fully-staged and costumed performance is free and open to the public.

“As You Like It” is a celebration of the enduring power of love in all its many disguises. Witty, playful and utterly magical, the story is a compelling romantic adventure in which Rosalind and Orlando’s famous courtship is played out against a backdrop of political rivalry, banishment and exile to the Forest of Arden. “As You Like It” was written in 1599 and marks a high point in Shakespeare’s midcareer with sophisticated comedies.

“Being that it’s set in a forest with no new huge battles or court intrigues, the play lends itself really well to performances in parks and more intimate settings like libraries”, said Hudson director Jon Ciccarelli.  “We decided to go back to basics with the show and set it in a medieval world full of pageantry, impromptu songs and love of the fairy tale world. The show is very musical so we’ve highlighted that with lots of live instruments and some recorded music” he added.

            The Hudson Shakespeare Company’s presentation of “As You Like It” will be held in the Stratford Library’s back courtyard located in the rear of the library building off the Baldwin Center parking lot. Patrons are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets to spread.  In the event of inclement weather or extreme heat, the play will move inside to the Library’s air-conditioned Lovell Room. The Hudson troupe will return in July with an all-female production of “Coriolanus”.

Rendimiento de “As You Like It”
La Biblioteca Stratford, 2203 Calle Main, anuncia que la Hudson Shakespeare Company de Nueva Jersey regresará a Stratford el sábado 29 de junio para su producción de “As You Like It”. Realizada en el patio trasero de la biblioteca, la actuación totalmente escenificada y disfrazada es gratuita y está abierta al público.
“As You Like It” es una celebración del poder perdurable del amor en todos sus muchos disfraces. Witty, juguetona y totalmente mágica, la historia es una aventura romántica convincente en la que el famoso noviazgo de Rosalind y Orlando se desarrolla en un contexto de rivalidad política, destierro y exilio al bosque de Arden. “As You Like It” fue escrito en 1599 y marca un punto culminante en la carrera media de Shakespeare con comedias sofisticadas.

“Al ser que está ambientada en un bosque sin nuevas batallas enormes o intrigas judiciales, la obra se presta muy bien a actuaciones en parques y escenarios más íntimos como bibliotecas”, dijo el director de Hudson Jon Ciccarelli. “Decidimos volver a lo básico con el espectáculo y establecerlo en un mundo medieval lleno de desfile, canciones improvisadas y amor por el mundo de los cuentos de hadas. El espectáculo es muy musical, así que hemos destacado que con muchos instrumentos en vivo y algo de música grabada”, agregó.

La presentación de la Hudson Shakespeare Company de “As You Like It” se llevará a cabo en el patio trasero de la Biblioteca Stratford, ubicado en la parte trasera del edificio de la biblioteca frente al estacionamiento del Baldwin Center. Se alienta a los clientes a llevar sillas de jardín o mantas para esparcir. En caso de inclemencias del tiempo o calor extremo, la obra se moverá dentro de la sala Lovell con aire acondicionado de la biblioteca. La compañía Hudson regresará en julio con una producción femenina de “Coriolanus”.
