Suspicious Items Get Bomb Squad Attention

A discovery of suspicious items inside a vacant home on Ocean Avenue in Stratford brought the Stamford Bomb Squad to Stratford on Monday afternoon, prompting a precautionary response by authorities.

According to unconfirmed reports, an eviction notice had recently been served at the residence, the home was unoccupied at the time of the response. Inside, investigators located several firearms and quantities of ammunition. However, it was an unidentified item found within the home that ultimately triggered the bomb squad call for further evaluation.

Out of an abundance of caution, the area was secured while specialists assessed the situation. No injuries were reported, and officials have not released further details on the nature of the suspicious item as the investigation remains ongoing.

The incident comes just one week after a deadly and unrelated standoff in Stamford, where a man took his own life during a police response connected to an eviction situation. That case, handled by the Stamford Police Department, ended tragically after a prolonged confrontation.

Norwalk Teen Arrested as Fugitive in Boston Police Cruiser Arson Case

Norwalk Police have arrested 19-year-old David Antonio Moran-Chavez after investigators linked him to the arson of a Boston Police vehicle during a violent street takeover earlier this fall. Boston Police first contacted Norwalk Detectives in early November seeking assistance with their investigation into an October 5th incident where officers attempted to disperse a large and hostile crowd near Massachusetts Avenue and Tremont Street. According to Boston Police, fireworks were thrown at officers, people climbed on police vehicles, and one of the fireworks ignited a cruiser, destroying it in a fully involved fire. Detectives in Boston later identified Moran-Chavez as the suspected arsonist.

Over the following weeks, detectives from both departments coordinated to gather intelligence and prepare for the arrest. Boston Police secured an arrest warrant charging Moran-Chavez with multiple felony and misdemeanor offenses, including conspiracy, disturbing the peace, burning a motor vehicle, and fireworks violations. A search warrant for his Norwalk residence was also obtained. On December 4, 2025, Norwalk Detectives and the Emergency Services Unit Tactical Response Team executed the warrants, took Moran-Chavez into custody, and recovered evidence tied to the Boston incident. He was charged in Connecticut as a Fugitive from Justice and is awaiting extradition to Massachusetts on a $500,000 bond. His next court date is December 18, 2025.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Norwalk Police Tip Line at 203-854-3111, submit an anonymous online tip at norwalkpd.com, or text NORWALKPD and the message to TIP411 (847411).
