2022-04-03@11:01pm--#Bridgeport CT-- EMS was dispatched for an injured suspect in a burglary on Cowles Street. According to radio reports the police caught them in the act.When I asked Scott Appleby, spokesman for the Bridgeport Police for information on robberies, carjacking's, muggings, purse snatching etc. he said all calls of interest are posted on their Twitter account.

It's probably why BestPlaces.net rated Bridgeport as the No. 2 Best Place in the U.S. to Raise a Family!If you believe that, I have the Congress Street Bridge to sell you!
